Process-Centric Analysis of Agentic Software Systems
Venue: arXiv cs.SE 2026
Year: 2026

Agentic systems are modern software systems: they consist of orchestrated modules, expose interfaces, and are deployed in software pipelines. Unlike conventional programs, their execution, i.e., trajectories, is inherently stochastic and adaptive to the problems they solve. Evaluation of such systems is often outcome-centric. This narrow focus overlooks detailed insights, failing to explain how agents reason, plan, act, or change their strategies. Inspired by the structured representation of conventional software systems as graphs, we introduce Graphectory to systematically encode the temporal and semantic relations in such systems. Using Graphectory, we automatically analyze 4000 trajectories of two dominant agentic programming workflows, SWE-agent and OpenHands, with four backbone Large Language Models (LLMs), attempting to resolve SWE-bench issues. Our automated analyses (completed within four minutes) reveal that: (1) agents using richer prompts or stronger LLMs exhibit more complex Graphectory, reflecting deeper exploration, broader context gathering, and more thorough validation; (2) agents' strategies vary with problem difficulty and the underlying LLM - for resolved issues, strategies often follow coherent localization-patching-validation steps, while unresolved ones exhibit chaotic or backtracking behaviors; and (3) even successful agentic systems often display inefficient processes. We also implement a novel technique for real-time construction and analysis of Graphectory and Langutory during agent execution to flag trajectory issues. Upon detecting such issues, the technique notifies the agent with a diagnostic message and, when applicable, rolls back the trajectory. Experiments show that online monitoring and interventions improve resolution rates by 6.9%-23.5% across models for problematic instances, while significantly shortening trajectories with near-zero overhead.
Efficient Cross-Domain Offline Reinforcement Learning with Dynamics- and Value-Aligned Data Filtering
Venue: arXiv cs.LG 2026
Year: 2026

Cross-domain offline reinforcement learning (RL) aims to train a well-performing agent in the target environment, leveraging both a limited target domain dataset and a source domain dataset with (possibly) sufficient data coverage. Due to the underlying dynamics misalignment between source and target domains, naively merging the two datasets may incur inferior performance. Recent advances address this issue by selectively leveraging source domain samples whose dynamics align well with the target domain. However, our work demonstrates that dynamics alignment alone is insufficient, by examining the limitations of prior frameworks and deriving a new target domain sub-optimality bound for the policy learned on the source domain. More importantly, our theory underscores an additional need for \textit{value alignment}, i.e., selecting high-quality, high-value samples from the source domain, a critical dimension overlooked by existing works. Motivated by such theoretical insight, we propose \textbf{\underline{D}}ynamics- and \textbf{\underline{V}}alue-aligned \textbf{\underline{D}}ata \textbf{\underline{F}}iltering (DVDF) method, a novel unified cross-domain RL framework that selectively incorporates source domain samples exhibiting strong alignment in \textit{both dynamics and values}. We empirically study a range of dynamics shift scenarios, including kinematic and morphology shifts, and evaluate DVDF on various tasks and datasets, even in the challenging setting where the target domain dataset contains an extremely limited amount of data. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DVDF consistently outperforms strong baselines with significant improvements.
Q-BERT4Rec: Quantized Semantic-ID Representation Learning for Multimodal Recommendation
Venue: arXiv cs.IR 2026
Year: 2026

Sequential recommendation plays a critical role in modern online platforms such as e-commerce, advertising, and content streaming, where accurately predicting users' next interactions is essential for personalization. Recent Transformer-based methods like BERT4Rec have shown strong modeling capability, yet they still rely on discrete item IDs that lack semantic meaning and ignore rich multimodal information (e.g., text and image). This leads to weak generalization and limited interpretability. To address these challenges, we propose Q-Bert4Rec, a multimodal sequential recommendation framework that unifies semantic representation and quantized modeling. Specifically, Q-Bert4Rec consists of three stages: (1) cross-modal semantic injection, which enriches randomly initialized ID embeddings through a dynamic transformer that fuses textual, visual, and structural features; (2) semantic quantization, which discretizes fused representations into meaningful tokens via residual vector quantization; and (3) multi-mask pretraining and fine-tuning, which leverage diverse masking strategies -- span, tail, and multi-region -- to improve sequential understanding. We validate our model on public Amazon benchmarks and demonstrate that Q-Bert4Rec significantly outperforms many strong existing methods, confirming the effectiveness of semantic tokenization for multimodal sequential recommendation. Our source code will be publicly available on GitHub after publishing.
From Veracity to Diffusion: Adressing Operational Challenges in Moving From Fake-News Detection to Information Disorders
Venue: arXiv cs.CL 2026
Year: 2026

A wide part of research on misinformation has relied lies on fake-news detection, a task framed as the prediction of veracity labels attached to articles or claims. Yet social-science research has repeatedly emphasized that information manipulation goes beyond fabricated content and often relies on amplification dynamics. This theoretical turn has consequences for operationalization in applied social science research. What changes empirically when prediction targets move from veracity to diffusion? And which performance level can be attained in limited resources setups ? In this paper we compare fake-news detection and virality prediction across two datasets, EVONS and FakeNewsNet. We adopt an evaluation-first perspective and examine how benchmark behavior changes when the prediction target shifts from veracity to diffusion. Our experiments show that fake-news detection is comparatively stable once strong textual embeddings are available, whereas virality prediction is much more sensitive to operational choices such as threshold definition and early observation windows. The paper proposes practical ways to operationalize lightweight, transparent pipelines for misinformation-related prediction tasks that can rival with state-of-the-art.
Evolving Diffusion and Flow Matching Policies for Online Reinforcement Learning
Venue: arXiv cs.LG 2026
Year: 2026

Diffusion and flow matching policies offer expressive, multimodal action modeling, yet they are frequently unstable in online reinforcement learning (RL) due to intractable likelihoods and gradients propagating through long sampling chains. Conversely, tractable parameterizations such as Gaussians lack the expressiveness needed for complex control -- exposing a persistent tension between optimization stability and representational power. We address this tension with a key structural principle: decoupling optimization from generation. Building on this, we introduce GoRL (Generative Online Reinforcement Learning), an algorithm-agnostic framework that trains expressive policies from scratch by confining policy optimization to a tractable latent space while delegating action synthesis to a conditional generative decoder. Using a two-timescale alternating schedule and anchoring decoder refinement to a fixed prior, GoRL enables stable optimization while continuously expanding expressiveness. Empirically, GoRL consistently outperforms unimodal and generative baselines across diverse continuous-control tasks. Notably, on the challenging HopperStand task, it achieves episodic returns exceeding 870 -- more than $3\times$ that of the strongest baseline -- demonstrating a practical path to policies that are both stable and highly expressive. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/bennidict23/GoRL.
Radiologist Copilot: An Agentic Framework Orchestrating Specialized Tools for Reliable Radiology Reporting
Venue: arXiv cs.AI 2026
Year: 2026

In clinical practice, radiology reporting is an essential yet complex, time-intensive, and error-prone task, particularly for 3D medical images. Existing automated approaches based on medical vision-language models primarily focus on isolated report generation. However, real-world radiology reporting extends far beyond report writing, which requires meticulous image observation and interpretation, appropriate template selection, and rigorous quality control to ensure adherence to clinical standards. This multi-stage, planning-intensive workflow fundamentally exceeds the capabilities of single-pass models. To bridge this gap, we propose Radiologist Copilot, an agentic system that autonomously orchestrates specialized tools to complete the entire radiology reporting workflow rather than isolated report writing. Radiologist Copilot enables region image localization and region analysis planning to support detailed visual reasoning, adopts strategic template selection for standardized report writing, and incorporates dedicated report quality control via quality assessment and feedback-driven iterative refinement. By integrating localization, interpretation, template selection, report composition, and quality control, Radiologist Copilot delivers a comprehensive and clinically aligned radiology reporting workflow. Experimental results demonstrate that it significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods, supporting radiologists throughout the entire radiology reporting process. The code will be released upon acceptance.
BOOM: Beyond Only One Modality KIT's Multimodal Multilingual Lecture Companion
Venue: arXiv cs.CL 2026
Year: 2026

The globalization of education and rapid growth of online learning have made localizing educational content a critical challenge. Lecture materials are inherently multimodal, combining spoken audio with visual slides, which requires systems capable of processing multiple input modalities. To provide an accessible and complete learning experience, translations must preserve all modalities: text for reading, slides for visual understanding, and speech for auditory learning. We present \textbf{BOOM}, a multimodal multilingual lecture companion that jointly translates lecture audio and slides to produce synchronized outputs across three modalities: translated text, localized slides with preserved visual elements, and synthesized speech. This end-to-end approach enables students to access lectures in their native language while aiming to preserve the original content in its entirety. Our experiments demonstrate that slide-aware transcripts also yield cascading benefits for downstream tasks such as summarization and question answering.

Unrolled Networks are Conditional Probability Flows in MRI Reconstruction
Venue: arXiv cs.CV 2026
Year: 2026

Unrolled networks have been widely used for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) reconstruction due to their efficiency. However, they typically exhibit unstable output quality across cascades, resulting in sub-optimal final reconstruction results. In this work, we address this inherent limitation of unrolled networks, drawing inspiration from recent Flow Matching paradigm. We first theoretically prove that unrolled networks are discretizations of conditional probability flows. This connection shows that unrolled networks and Flow Matching are analogous in MRI reconstruction. Building upon this insight, we propose FLow-Aligned Training (FLAT), which (1) derives important cascade parameters from the Flow Matching discretization; and (2) aligns intermediate reconstructions with the ideal Flow Matching trajectory to improve cascade iteration stability and convergence. Experiments on three MRI datasets show that FLAT results in a stable trajectory across sub-networks, improving the quality of the final reconstruction.
Difference Decomposition Networks for Infrared Small Target Detection
Venue: arXiv cs.CV 2026
Year: 2026

Infrared small target detection (ISTD) faces two major challenges: a lack of discernible target texture and severe background clutter, which results in the background obscuring the target. To enhance targets and suppress backgrounds, we propose the Basis Decomposition Module (BDM) as an extensible and lightweight module based on basis decomposition, which decomposes a complex feature into several basis features and enhances certain information while eliminating redundancy. Extending BDM leads to a series of modules, including the Spatial Difference Decomposition Module (SD$^\mathrm{2}$M), Spatial Difference Decomposition Downsampling Module (SD$^\mathrm{3}$M), and Temporal Difference Decomposition Module (TD$^\mathrm{2}$M). Based on these modules, we develop the Spatial Difference Decomposition Network (SD$^\mathrm{2}$Net) for single-frame ISTD (SISTD) and the Spatiotemporal Difference Decomposition Network (STD$^\mathrm{2}$Net) for multi-frame ISTD (MISTD). SD$^\mathrm{2}$Net integrates SD$^\mathrm{2}$M and SD$^\mathrm{3}$M within an adapted U-shaped architecture. We employ TD$^\mathrm{2}$M to introduce motion information, which transforms SD$^\mathrm{2}$Net into STD$^\mathrm{2}$Net. Extensive experiments on SISTD and MISTD datasets demonstrate state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance. On the SISTD task, SD$^\mathrm{2}$Net performs well compared to most established networks. On the MISTD datasets, STD$^\mathrm{2}$Net achieves a mIoU of 87.68\%, outperforming SD$^\mathrm{2}$Net, which achieves a mIoU of 64.97\%.

Transmit Weights, Not Features: Orthogonal-Basis Aided Wireless Point-Cloud Transmission
Venue: arXiv cs.LG 2026
Year: 2026

The widespread adoption of depth sensors has substantially lowered the barrier to point-cloud acquisition. This letter proposes a semantic wireless transmission framework for three dimension (3D) point clouds built on Deep Joint Source - Channel Coding (DeepJSCC). Instead of sending raw features, the transmitter predicts combination weights over a receiver-side semantic orthogonal feature pool, enabling compact representations and robust reconstruction. A folding-based decoder deforms a 2D grid into 3D, enforcing manifold continuity while preserving geometric fidelity. Trained with Chamfer Distance (CD) and an orthogonality regularizer, the system is evaluated on ModelNet40 across varying Signal-to-Noise Ratios (SNRs) and bandwidths. Results show performance on par with SEmantic Point cloud Transmission (SEPT) at high bandwidth and clear gains in bandwidth-constrained regimes, with consistent improvements in both Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and CD. Ablation experiments confirm the benefits of orthogonalization and the folding prior.
Guided Flow Policy: Learning from High-Value Actions in Offline Reinforcement Learning
Venue: arXiv cs.LG 2026
Year: 2026

Offline reinforcement learning often relies on behavior regularization that enforces policies to remain close to the dataset distribution. However, such approaches fail to distinguish between high-value and low-value actions in their regularization components. We introduce Guided Flow Policy (GFP), which couples a multi-step flow-matching policy with a distilled one-step actor. The actor directs the flow policy through weighted behavior cloning to focus on cloning high-value actions from the dataset rather than indiscriminately imitating all state-action pairs. In turn, the flow policy constrains the actor to remain aligned with the dataset's best transitions while maximizing the critic. This mutual guidance enables GFP to achieve state-of-the-art performance across 144 state and pixel-based tasks from the OGBench, Minari, and D4RL benchmarks, with substantial gains on suboptimal datasets and challenging tasks.

On topological and algebraic structures of categorical random variables
Venue: arXiv cs.IT 2026
Year: 2026

Based on entropy and symmetrical uncertainty (SU), we define a metric for categorical random variables and show that this metric can be promoted into an appropriate quotient space of categorical random variables. Moreover, we also show that there is a natural commutative monoid structure in the same quotient space, which is compatible with the topology induced by the metric, in the sense that the monoid operation is continuous.
Stable Signer: Hierarchical Sign Language Generative Model
Venue: arXiv cs.CV 2026
Year: 2026

Sign Language Production (SLP) is the process of converting the complex input text into a real video. Most previous works focused on the Text2Gloss, Gloss2Pose, Pose2Vid stages, and some concentrated on Prompt2Gloss and Text2Avatar stages. However, this field has made slow progress due to the inaccuracy of text conversion, pose generation, and the rendering of poses into real human videos in these stages, resulting in gradually accumulating errors. Therefore, in this paper, we streamline the traditional redundant structure, simplify and optimize the task objective, and design a new sign language generative model called Stable Signer. It redefines the SLP task as a hierarchical generation end-to-end task that only includes text understanding (Prompt2Gloss, Text2Gloss) and Pose2Vid, and executes text understanding through our proposed new Sign Language Understanding Linker called SLUL, and generates hand gestures through the named SLP-MoE hand gesture rendering expert block to end-to-end generate high-quality and multi-style sign language videos. SLUL is trained using the newly developed Semantic-Aware Gloss Masking Loss (SAGM Loss). Its performance has improved by 48.6% compared to the current SOTA generation methods.
Inference-time Stochastic Refinement of GRU-Normalizing Flow for Real-time Video Motion Transfer
Venue: arXiv cs.CV 2026
Year: 2026

Real-time video motion transfer applications such as immersive gaming and vision-based anomaly detection require accurate yet diverse future predictions to support realistic synthesis and robust downstream decision making under uncertainty. To improve the diversity of such sequential forecasts we propose a novel inference-time refinement technique that combines Gated Recurrent Unit-Normalizing Flows (GRU-NF) with stochastic sampling methods. While GRU-NF can capture multimodal distributions through its integration of normalizing flows within a temporal forecasting framework, its deterministic transformation structure can limit expressivity. To address this, inspired by Stochastic Normalizing Flows (SNF), we introduce Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) steps during GRU-NF inference, enabling the model to explore a richer output space and better approximate the true data distribution without retraining. We validate our approach in a keypoint-based video motion transfer pipeline, where capturing temporally coherent and perceptually diverse future trajectories is essential for realistic samples and low bandwidth communication. Experiments show that our inference framework, Gated Recurrent Unit- Stochastic Normalizing Flows (GRU-SNF) outperforms GRU-NF in generating diverse outputs without sacrificing accuracy, even under longer prediction horizons. By injecting stochasticity during inference, our approach captures multimodal behavior more effectively. These results highlight the potential of integrating stochastic dynamics with flow-based sequence models for generative time series forecasting.

MAFNet:Multi-frequency Adaptive Fusion Network for Real-time Stereo Matching
Venue: arXiv cs.CV 2026
Year: 2026

Existing stereo matching networks typically rely on either cost-volume construction based on 3D convolutions or deformation methods based on iterative optimization. The former incurs significant computational overhead during cost aggregation, whereas the latter often lacks the ability to model non-local contextual information. These methods exhibit poor compatibility on resource-constrained mobile devices, limiting their deployment in real-time applications. To address this, we propose a Multi-frequency Adaptive Fusion Network (MAFNet), which can produce high-quality disparity maps using only efficient 2D convolutions. Specifically, we design an adaptive frequency-domain filtering attention module that decomposes the full cost volume into high-frequency and low-frequency volumes, performing frequency-aware feature aggregation separately. Subsequently, we introduce a Linformer-based low-rank attention mechanism to adaptively fuse high- and low-frequency information, yielding more robust disparity estimation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed MAFNet significantly outperforms existing real-time methods on public datasets such as Scene Flow and KITTI 2015, showing a favorable balance between accuracy and real-time performance.
Learning to Orchestrate Agents in Natural Language with the Conductor
Venue: arXiv cs.LG 2026
Year: 2026

Powerful large language models (LLMs) from different providers have been expensively trained and finetuned to specialize across varying domains. In this work, we introduce a new kind of Conductor model trained with reinforcement learning to automatically discover powerful coordination strategies among LLMs. Our Conductor learns not only to design targeted communication topologies for effective agent-to-agent collaboration, but also to prompt engineer focused instructions to the LLMs to maximally leverage their individual capabilities. We show that, by learning optimal coordination strategies over pools of powerful worker LLMs, a 7B Conductor achieves significant performance gains beyond any individual worker, attaining state-of-the-art results in challenging reasoning benchmarks, such as LiveCodeBench and GPQA. By training with randomized agent pools, our conductor effectively adapts to arbitrary sets of open- and closed-source agents, meeting any user requirements. Furthermore, allowing the Conductor to select itself as a worker gives rise to recursive topologies, elevating performance with a new form of dynamic test-time scaling through online iterative adaptation. More broadly, ours is among the early work demonstrating language model coordination can be unlocked through RL, where powerful coordination strategies emerge naturally in LLMs through pure end-to-end reward maximization.
