MTAVG-Bench 2.0: Diagnosing Failure Modes of Cinematic Expressiveness in Multi-Talker Audio-Video GenerationHaitian Li, Yanghao Zhou, Heyan Huang et al.
In recent years, Multi-Talker Audio-Video Generation (MTAVG) models have shown promising performance on fundamental metrics such as lip-sync and audio-visual alignment. However, these metrics remain insufficient for assessing cinematic expressiveness in scene-level generation. In multi-character scenes, generation models must go beyond audio-visual realism to convey coherent character performance and other higher-level cinematic qualities. To fill this gap, we introduce MTAVG-Bench 2.0, a benchmark for diagnosing failure modes of cinematic expressiveness in multi-talker audio-video generation. Unlike prior settings that mainly focus on the quality of basic multi-turn dialogue, MTAVG-Bench 2.0 targets short-drama and scene-level generation, and establishes a high-level failure taxonomy spanning acting, narrative, atmosphere, and audio-visual language. Based on this taxonomy, we construct more than 10,000 question-answering evaluation instances, together with subsets for short-drama-level assessment and temporal localization of failure modes, to systematically evaluate the ability of omni large language models to diagnose high-level audio-visual failures. Experimental results show that commercial omni models such as Gemini substantially outperform other evaluators, yet even the strongest models continue to struggle with complex failures in our benchmark. These results demonstrate that MTAVG-Bench 2.0 provides a systematic benchmark for failure diagnosis in cinematic multi-talker audio-video generation.

MTAVG-Bench: A Diagnostic Benchmark for Multi-Talker Dialogue-Centric Audio-Video GenerationYang-Hao Zhou, Haitian Li, Rexar Lin et al.
Recent advances in text-to-audio-video (T2AV) generation have enabled models to synthesize audio-visual videos with multi-participant dialogues. However, existing evaluation benchmarks remain largely designed for human-recorded videos or single-speaker settings. As a result, structural failures in generated multi-talker dialogue videos, such as identity drift, unnatural turn transitions, and audio-visual misalignment, cannot be effectively diagnosed. To address this issue, we introduce MTAVG-Bench, a failure-driven diagnostic benchmark for multi-talker dialogue-centric audio-video generation. MTAVG-Bench is built via a semi-automatic pipeline, where 1.8k videos are generated using mainstream T2AV models with carefully designed prompts, yielding 2.4k manually annotated QA pairs for fine-grained failure diagnosis. The benchmark evaluates multi-speaker dialogue generation at four levels: audio-visual signal fidelity, temporal attribute consistency, social interaction, and cinematic expression. Built on a hierarchical failure taxonomy and a targeted QA protocol, MTAVG-Bench is primarily designed to evaluate whether proprietary and open-source omni-models can reliably identify failure modes in multi-speaker T2AV outputs. We benchmark 12 proprietary and open-source omni-models on MTAVG-Bench, with Gemini 3 Pro achieving the strongest overall performance, while leading open-source models remain competitive in signal fidelity and consistency. Overall, MTAVG-Bench enables fine-grained failure analysis for rigorous model comparison and targeted video generation refinement.

PhysX-Omni: Unified Simulation-Ready Physical 3D Generation for Rigid, Deformable, and Articulated ObjectsZiang Cao, Yinghao Liu, Haitian Li et al.
Simulation-ready physical 3D assets have emerged as a promising direction owing to their broad applicability in downstream tasks. However, most existing 3D generation methods either neglect physical properties or are limited to a single asset category, e.g., rigid, deformable, or articulated objects. To address these limitations, we introduce PhysX-Omni, a unified framework for simulation-ready physical 3D generation across diverse asset types. Specifically, we develop a novel and efficient geometry representation tailored for Vision-Language Models, which directly encodes high-resolution 3D structures without compression, significantly improving generation performance. In addition, we construct the first general simulation-ready 3D dataset, PhysXVerse, covering diverse indoor and outdoor categories. Furthermore, to comprehensively and flexibly evaluate both generative and understanding capabilities in the wild, we propose PhysX-Bench, which encompasses six key attributes: geometry, absolute scale, material, affordance, kinematics, and function description. Extensive experiments with conventional metrics and PhysX-Bench show that PhysX-Omni performs strongly in both generation and understanding. Moreover, additional studies further validate the potential of PhysX-Omni for applications in simulation-ready scene generation and robotic policy learning. We believe PhysX-Omni can significantly advance a wide range of downstream applications, particularly in embodied AI and physics-based simulation.

MonoArt: Progressive Structural Reasoning for Monocular Articulated 3D ReconstructionHaitian Li, Haozhe Xie, Junxiang Xu et al.
Reconstructing articulated 3D objects from a single image requires jointly inferring object geometry, part structure, and motion parameters from limited visual evidence. A key difficulty lies in the entanglement between motion cues and object structure, which makes direct articulation regression unstable. Existing methods address this challenge through multi-view supervision, retrieval-based assembly, or auxiliary video generation, often sacrificing scalability or efficiency. We present MonoArt, a unified framework grounded in progressive structural reasoning. Rather than predicting articulation directly from image features, MonoArt progressively transforms visual observations into canonical geometry, structured part representations, and motion-aware embeddings within a single architecture. This structured reasoning process enables stable and interpretable articulation inference without external motion templates or multi-stage pipelines. Extensive experiments on PartNet-Mobility demonstrate that OM achieves state-of-the-art performance in both reconstruction accuracy and inference speed. The framework further generalizes to robotic manipulation and articulated scene reconstruction.

LiveSecBench: A Dynamic and Culturally-Relevant AI Safety Benchmark for LLMs in Chinese ContextYudong Li, Zhongliang Yang, Kejiang Chen et al.
In this work, we propose LiveSecBench, a dynamic and continuously updated safety benchmark specifically for Chinese-language LLM application scenarios. LiveSecBench evaluates models across six critical dimensions (Legality, Ethics, Factuality, Privacy, Adversarial Robustness, and Reasoning Safety) rooted in the Chinese legal and social frameworks. This benchmark maintains relevance through a dynamic update schedule that incorporates new threat vectors, such as the planned inclusion of Text-to-Image Generation Safety and Agentic Safety in the next update. For now, LiveSecBench (v251030) has evaluated 18 LLMs, providing a landscape of AI safety in the context of Chinese language. The leaderboard is publicly accessible at https://livesecbench.intokentech.cn/.

Trans-Adapter: A Plug-and-Play Framework for Transparent Image InpaintingYuekun Dai, Haitian Li, Shangchen Zhou et al.
RGBA images, with the additional alpha channel, are crucial for any application that needs blending, masking, or transparency effects, making them more versatile than standard RGB images. Nevertheless, existing image inpainting methods are designed exclusively for RGB images. Conventional approaches to transparent image inpainting typically involve placing a background underneath RGBA images and employing a two-stage process: image inpainting followed by image matting. This pipeline, however, struggles to preserve transparency consistency in edited regions, and matting can introduce jagged edges along transparency boundaries. To address these challenges, we propose Trans-Adapter, a plug-and-play adapter that enables diffusion-based inpainting models to process transparent images directly. Trans-Adapter also supports controllable editing via ControlNet and can be seamlessly integrated into various community models. To evaluate our method, we introduce LayerBench, along with a novel non-reference alpha edge quality evaluation metric for assessing transparency edge quality. We conduct extensive experiments on LayerBench to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.
