AcademiClaw: When Students Set Challenges for AI Agents

Junjie Yu, Pengrui Lu, Weiye Si et al.

Benchmarks within the OpenClaw ecosystem have thus far evaluated exclusively assistant-level tasks, leaving the academic-level capabilities of OpenClaw largely unexamined. We introduce AcademiClaw, a bilingual benchmark of 80 complex, long-horizon tasks sourced directly from university students' real academic workflows -- homework, research projects, competitions, and personal projects -- that they found current AI agents unable to solve effectively. Curated from 230 student-submitted candidates through rigorous expert review, the final task set spans 25+ professional domains, ranging from olympiad-level mathematics and linguistics problems to GPU-intensive reinforcement learning and full-stack system debugging, with 16 tasks requiring CUDA GPU execution. Each task executes in an isolated Docker sandbox and is scored on task completion by multi-dimensional rubrics combining six complementary techniques, with an independent five-category safety audit providing additional behavioral analysis. Experiments on six frontier models show that even the best achieves only a 55\% pass rate. Further analysis uncovers sharp capability boundaries across task domains, divergent behavioral strategies among models, and a disconnect between token consumption and output quality, providing fine-grained diagnostic signals beyond what aggregate metrics reveal. We hope that AcademiClaw and its open-sourced data and code can serve as a useful resource for the OpenClaw community, driving progress toward agents that are more capable and versatile across the full breadth of real-world academic demands. All data and code are available at https://github.com/GAIR-NLP/AcademiClaw.

Pedestrian Attribute Recognition as Label-balanced Multi-label Learning

Yibo Zhou, Hai-Miao Hu, Yirong Xiang et al.

Rooting in the scarcity of most attributes, realistic pedestrian attribute datasets exhibit unduly skewed data distribution, from which two types of model failures are delivered: (1) label imbalance: model predictions lean greatly towards the side of majority labels; (2) semantics imbalance: model is easily overfitted on the under-represented attributes due to their insufficient semantic diversity. To render perfect label balancing, we propose a novel framework that successfully decouples label-balanced data re-sampling from the curse of attributes co-occurrence, i.e., we equalize the sampling prior of an attribute while not biasing that of the co-occurred others. To diversify the attributes semantics and mitigate the feature noise, we propose a Bayesian feature augmentation method to introduce true in-distribution novelty. Handling both imbalances jointly, our work achieves best accuracy on various popular benchmarks, and importantly, with minimal computational budget.
