Let It Flow: Agentic Crafting on Rock and Roll, Building the ROME Model within an Open Agentic Learning EcosystemWeixun Wang, XiaoXiao Xu, Wanhe An et al.
Agentic crafting requires LLMs to operate in real-world environments over multiple turns by taking actions, observing outcomes, and iteratively refining artifacts. Despite its importance, the open-source community lacks a principled, end-to-end ecosystem to streamline agent development. We introduce the Agentic Learning Ecosystem (ALE), a foundational infrastructure that optimizes the production pipeline for agentic model. ALE consists of three components: ROLL, a post-training framework for weight optimization; ROCK, a sandbox environment manager for trajectory generation; and iFlow CLI, an agent framework for efficient context engineering. We release ROME, an open-source agent grounded by ALE and trained on over one million trajectories. Our approach includes data composition protocols for synthesizing complex behaviors and a novel policy optimization algorithm, Interaction-Perceptive Agentic Policy Optimization (IPA), which assigns credit over semantic interaction chunks rather than individual tokens to improve long-horizon training stability. Empirically, we evaluate ROME within a structured setting and introduce Terminal Bench Pro, a benchmark with improved scale and contamination control. ROME demonstrates strong performance across benchmarks like SWE-bench Verified and Terminal Bench, proving the effectiveness of ALE.

EvA: An Evidence-First Audio Understanding Paradigm for LALMsXinyuan Xie, Shunian Chen, Zhiheng Liu et al.
Large Audio Language Models (LALMs) still struggle in complex acoustic scenes because they often fail to preserve task-relevant acoustic evidence before reasoning begins. We call this failure the evidence bottleneck: state-of-the-art systems show larger deficits in evidence extraction than in downstream reasoning, suggesting that the main limitation lies in upstream perception rather than reasoning policy. To address this problem, we propose EvA (Evidence-First Audio), a dual-path architecture that combines Whisper and CED-Base through non-compressive, time-aligned fusion. EvA first aggregates intermediate CED layers to preserve multi-scale acoustic cues, then aligns the aggregated CED features to the Whisper timeline and adds the two streams without changing sequence length. We also build EvA-Perception, a large-scale open-source training set with about 54K event-ordered captions (150 h) and about 500K QA pairs. Under a unified zero-shot protocol, EvA achieves the best open-source Perception scores on MMAU, MMAR, and MMSU, and improves over Kimi-Audio-7B on all reported metrics, with the largest gains on perception-heavy splits. These results support the evidence-first hypothesis: stronger audio understanding depends on preserving acoustic evidence before reasoning.

FISHER: A Foundation Model for Multi-Modal Industrial Signal Comprehensive RepresentationPingyi Fan, Anbai Jiang, Shuwei Zhang et al.
With the rapid deployment of SCADA systems, how to effectively analyze industrial signals and detect abnormal states is an urgent need for the industry. Due to the significant heterogeneity of these signals, which we summarize as the M5 problem, previous works only focus on small sub-problems and employ specialized models, failing to utilize the synergies between modalities and the powerful scaling law. However, we argue that the M5 signals can be modeled in a unified manner due to the intrinsic similarity. As a result, we propose FISHER, a Foundation model for multi-modal Industrial Signal compreHEnsive Representation. To support arbitrary sampling rates, FISHER considers the increment of sampling rate as the concatenation of sub-band information. Specifically, FISHER takes the STFT sub-band as the modeling unit and adopts a teacher student SSL framework for pre-training. We also develop the RMIS benchmark, which evaluates the representations of M5 industrial signals on multiple health management tasks. Compared with top SSL models, FISHER showcases versatile and outstanding capabilities with a general performance gain up to 5.03%, along with much more efficient scaling curves. We also investigate the scaling law on downstream tasks and derive potential avenues for future works. FISHER is now open-sourced on https://github.com/jianganbai/FISHER

VRM-Phase I VKW system description of long-short video customizable keyword wakeup challengeYougen Yuan, Zhiqiang Lv, Shen Huang et al.
Keyword wakeup technology has always been a research hotspot in speech processing, but many related works were done on different datasets. We organized a Chinese long-short video keyword wakeup challenge (Video Keyword Wakeup Challenge, VKW) for testing the ability of each participating team to build a keyword wakeup system under the public dataset. All submitted systems not only need to support the setting of multiple different keywords, but also need to support the wakeup of any costumed keyword.This paper mainly describes the basic situation of the VKW challenge and the experimental results of some participating teams.
