The task of triplet extraction aims to extract pairs of entities and their corresponding relations from unstructured text. Most existing methods train an extraction model on training data involving specific target relations, and are incapable of extracting new relations that were not observed at training time. Generalizing the model to unseen relations typically requires fine-tuning on synthetic training data which is often noisy and unreliable. We show that by reducing triplet extraction to a template infilling task over a pre-trained language model (LM), we can equip the extraction model with zero-shot learning capabilities and eliminate the need for additional training data. We propose a novel framework, ZETT (ZEro-shot Triplet extraction by Template infilling), that aligns the task objective to the pre-training objective of generative transformers to generalize to unseen relations. Experiments on FewRel and Wiki-ZSL datasets demonstrate that ZETT shows consistent and stable performance, outperforming previous state-of-the-art methods, even when using automatically generated templates. https://github.com/megagonlabs/zett/

We present On-device Sora, the first model training-free solution for diffusion-based on-device text-to-video generation that operates efficiently on smartphone-grade devices. To address the challenges of diffusion-based text-to-video generation on computation- and memory-limited mobile devices, the proposed On-device Sora applies three novel techniques to pre-trained video generative models. First, Linear Proportional Leap (LPL) reduces the excessive denoising steps required in video diffusion through an efficient leap-based approach. Second, Temporal Dimension Token Merging (TDTM) minimizes intensive token-processing computation in attention layers by merging consecutive tokens along the temporal dimension. Third, Concurrent Inference with Dynamic Loading (CI-DL) dynamically partitions large models into smaller blocks and loads them into memory for concurrent model inference, effectively addressing the challenges of limited device memory. We implement On-device Sora on the iPhone 15 Pro, and the experimental evaluations show that it is capable of generating high-quality videos on the device, comparable to those produced by high-end GPUs. These results show that On-device Sora enables efficient and high-quality video generation on resource-constrained mobile devices. We envision the proposed On-device Sora as a significant first step toward democratizing state-of-the-art generative technologies, enabling video generation on commodity mobile and embedded devices without resource-intensive re-training for model optimization (compression). The code implementation is available at a GitHub repository(https://github.com/eai-lab/On-device-Sora).

Scaling robot policy learning is bottlenecked by the cost of collecting demonstrations, while language annotations for existing demonstrations are comparatively cheap. We study language density as a lever for extracting more signal from a fixed robot or egocentric-video corpus. We introduce DeMiAn (Dense Multi-aspect Annotation), a two-stage approach that first re-labels demonstration segments with VLM-generated annotations along four complementary aspects: physical motion, scene composition, arm pose, and reasoning. A learned instructor then maps a task description and initial scene snapshot to a task-appropriate annotation at deployment, running asynchronously so generation latency is hidden behind policy execution. Across over 1M robot manipulation clips and 50K EgoVerse human-egocentric videos, DeMiAn improves both a vision-language-action policy and a video-based world-action model without collecting new demonstrations. On RoboCasa, the instructor raises success by 5 points over a task-only baseline and comes within 3 points of a per-task oracle. No fixed annotation aspect dominates across tasks, showing that selecting the right dense language matters. DeMiAn also improves composite-task and out-of-distribution performance, and shifts the compute-performance frontier in both mid-training and post-training after accounting for annotation-generation FLOPs. These results position dense re-annotation as a practical scaling lever for robot policy learning.

We introduce $\infty$-THOR, a new framework for long-horizon embodied tasks that advances long-context understanding in embodied AI. $\infty$-THOR provides: (1) a generation framework for synthesizing scalable, reproducible, and unlimited long-horizon trajectories; (2) a novel embodied QA task, Needle(s) in the Embodied Haystack, where multiple scattered clues across extended trajectories test agents' long-context reasoning ability; and (3) a long-horizon dataset and benchmark suite featuring complex tasks that span hundreds of environment steps, each paired with ground-truth action sequences. To enable this capability, we explore architectural adaptations, including interleaved Goal-State-Action modeling, context extension techniques, and Context Parallelism, to equip LLM-based agents for extreme long-context reasoning and interaction. Experimental results and analyses highlight the challenges posed by our benchmark and provide insights into training strategies and model behaviors under long-horizon conditions. Our work provides a foundation for the next generation of embodied AI systems capable of robust, long-term reasoning and planning.
