Speaking the Language of Science: Toward a General-Purpose Generative Foundation Model for the Natural SciencesMingyang Li, Yurou Liu, Jieping Ye et al.
In this report, we present LOGOS (Language Of Generative Objects in Science), a scientific generative language model that unifies heterogeneous tasks across the natural sciences within a single autoregressive framework based on a shared scientific grammar. It encodes diverse scientific objects and their spatial interactions as token sequences over a common vocabulary. By representing spatial contact and constraint patterns as discrete tokens, the model captures complex structural interactions in a purely sequential manner, without relying on explicit coordinates or geometric neural networks. This unified representation enables a wide range of downstream tasks to be formulated consistently as next-token prediction in the same grammar space, creating strong alignment between continued multi-domain pre-training and downstream objectives. Across diverse tasks, LOGOS consistently matches or outperforms domain-specific baselines, providing preliminary evidence for the feasibility of "one model fits all" in the natural sciences. We train LOGOS models at different scales (1B, 3B, and 8B parameters) and find a consistent positive correlation between model size and performance. This suggests that the future of AI for Science (AI4S) may not lie in building an independent technical stack that is separated from large language models (LLMs). Instead, it may depend on deeply aligning scientific foundation models with LLMs through shared architectures, shared training paradigms, and shared inference infrastructure, so that LLMs can truly become a new entry point for AI4S. We release the model weights and associated resources to facilitate further research.

DataLadder: A Simulation-Enabled Interconversion Toolchain for the Embodied Data PyramidPeidong Liu, Yongce Liu, Songyan Guo et al.
Generalist robot policies require trustworthy evaluation and robot-usable training data, but both are difficult to scale with physical robots alone. Real-robot trials and demonstrations remain the most faithful source of deployment signals, yet they are slow, costly, and hard to reproduce. We present DataLadder, a simulation-enabled interconversion toolchain for human-robot aligned model evaluation and data generation, denoted as Robot $\rightleftharpoons$ Simulation $\rightleftharpoons$ Human. On the one hand, the Robot $\rightarrow$ Simulation $\rightarrow$ Human pathway supports human-robot aligned model evaluation by reconstructing real-robot tabletop organization tasks as calibrated digital twins for scalable evaluation, while using human embodied feedback to inspect and refine the naturalness of simulated motions. On the other hand, the Human $\rightarrow$ Simulation $\rightarrow$ Robot pathway supports human-robot aligned data generation: it lifts ego-centric human demonstrations into simulation, checks them under robot physical constraints, and converts them into robot-centered trajectories, annotations, and visual observations. Together, these pathways use the JoySim simulator as both a scalable evaluation layer and a physical consistency filter for robot data generation. We further package the core reconstruction, simulation, rendering, and realism-augmentation modules as cloud services on JD Cloud, turning the system into reusable infrastructure for robot data generation and model evaluation.
