AI agents are increasingly expected to complete long-horizon workflows that require sustained progress over hours, millions of tokens, and complex environments. Yet current agent benchmarks largely evaluate short-form tasks, such as single pull requests, small tickets, or 5-10 minute exercises, limiting our ability to measure agents' capabilities in planning, long-context understanding, and memory use. We introduce SWE-Marathon, a benchmark of 20 long-horizon tasks spanning software engineering and adjacent technical domains. Each task consists of a unique executable environment, a human-written reference solution, and a multi-layer verification suite. Logged agent attempts average 27.2M total tokens, making SWE-Marathon substantially longer-horizon than existing SWE and command-line agent benchmarks. Current frontier coding agents solve fewer than 30% of tasks. Failures often arise from poor self-verification, self-reported infeasibility, and premature termination. We also observe reward-hacking behavior in 13.8% of rollouts, where agents attempt to exploit the environment or verifier to bypass the intended workflow. SWE-Marathon includes adversarial review of test suites and execution environments, as well as multi-layer checks designed to prevent shortcut solutions. We release SWE-Marathon, evaluation code, and agent trajectories at https://swe-marathon.org/.

We have recently seen great progress in image classification due to the success of deep convolutional neural networks and the availability of large-scale datasets. Most of the existing work focuses on single-label image classification. However, there are usually multiple tags associated with an image. The existing works on multi-label classification are mainly based on lab curated labels. Humans assign tags to their images differently, which is mainly based on their interests and personal tagging behavior. In this paper, we address the problem of personalized tag recommendation and propose an end-to-end deep network which can be trained on large-scale datasets. The user-preference is learned within the network in an unsupervised way where the network performs joint optimization for user-preference and visual encoding. A joint training of user-preference and visual encoding allows the network to efficiently integrate the visual preference with tagging behavior for a better user recommendation. In addition, we propose the use of adversarial learning, which enforces the network to predict tags resembling user-generated tags. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model on two different large-scale and publicly available datasets, YFCC100M and NUS-WIDE. The proposed method achieves significantly better performance on both the datasets when compared to the baselines and other state-of-the-art methods.
