Unifying Heterogeneous Multi-Modal Remote Sensing Detection Via Language-Pivoted PretrainingYuxuan Li, Yuming Chen, Yunheng Li et al.
Heterogeneous multi-modal remote sensing object detection aims to accurately detect objects from diverse sensors (e.g., RGB, SAR, Infrared). Existing approaches largely adopt a late alignment paradigm, in which modality alignment and task-specific optimization are entangled during downstream fine-tuning. This tight coupling complicates optimization and often results in unstable training and suboptimal generalization. To address these limitations, we propose BabelRS, a unified language-pivoted pretraining framework that explicitly decouples modality alignment from downstream task learning. BabelRS comprises two key components: Concept-Shared Instruction Aligning (CSIA) and Layerwise Visual-Semantic Annealing (LVSA). CSIA aligns each sensor modality to a shared set of linguistic concepts, using language as a semantic pivot to bridge heterogeneous visual representations. To further mitigate the granularity mismatch between high-level language representations and dense detection objectives, LVSA progressively aggregates multi-scale visual features to provide fine-grained semantic guidance. Extensive experiments demonstrate that BabelRS stabilizes training and consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods without bells and whistles. Code: https://github.com/zcablii/SM3Det.

SWE-Hub: A Unified Production System for Scalable, Executable Software Engineering TasksYucheng Zeng, Shupeng Li, Daxiang Dong et al.
Progress in software-engineering agents is increasingly constrained by the scarcity of executable, scalable, and realistic data for training and evaluation. This scarcity stems from three fundamental challenges in existing pipelines: environments are brittle and difficult to reproduce across languages; synthesizing realistic, system-level bugs at scale is computationally expensive; and existing data predominantly consists of short-horizon repairs, failing to capture long-horizon competencies like architectural consistency. We introduce \textbf{SWE-Hub}, an end-to-end system that operationalizes the data factory abstraction by unifying environment automation, scalable synthesis, and diverse task generation into a coherent production stack. At its foundation, the \textbf{Env Agent} establishes a shared execution substrate by automatically converting raw repository snapshots into reproducible, multi-language container environments with standardized interfaces. Built upon this substrate, \textbf{SWE-Scale} engine addresses the need for high-throughput generation, combining cross-language code analysis with cluster-scale validation to synthesize massive volumes of localized bug-fix instances. \textbf{Bug Agent} generates high-fidelity repair tasks by synthesizing system-level regressions involving cross-module dependencies, paired with user-like issue reports that describe observable symptoms rather than root causes. Finally, \textbf{SWE-Architect} expands the task scope from repair to creation by translating natural-language requirements into repository-scale build-a-repo tasks. By integrating these components, SWE-Hub establishes a unified production pipeline capable of continuously delivering executable tasks across the entire software engineering lifecycle.
