LLaSO: A Foundational Framework for Reproducible Research in Large Language and Speech ModelYirong Sun, Yizhong Geng, Peidong Wei et al.
The development of Large Speech-Language Models (LSLMs) has been slowed by fragmented architectures and a lack of transparency, hindering the systematic comparison and reproducibility of research. Unlike in the vision-language domain, the LSLM field suffers from the common practice of releasing model weights without their corresponding training data and configurations. To address these critical gaps, we introduce LLaSO, the first fully open, end-to-end framework for large-scale speech-language modeling. LLaSO provides the community with three essential resources: (1) LLaSO-Align, a 12M-instance speech-text alignment corpus; (2) LLaSO-Instruct, a 13.5M-instance multi-task instruction-tuning dataset; and (3) LLaSO-Eval, a reproducible benchmark for standardized evaluation. To validate our framework, we build and release LLaSO-Base, a 3.8B-parameter reference model trained exclusively on our public data. It achieves a normalized score of 0.72, establishing a strong, reproducible baseline that surpasses comparable models. Our analysis reveals that while broader training coverage enhances performance, significant generalization gaps persist on unseen tasks, particularly in pure audio scenarios. By releasing the complete stack of data, benchmarks, and models, LLaSO establishes a foundational open standard to unify research efforts and accelerate community-driven progress in LSLMs. We release the code, dataset, pretrained models, and results in https://github.com/EIT-NLP/LLaSO.

PRISM: Preference Refinement via Implicit Scene Modeling for 3D Vision-Language Preference-Based Reinforcement LearningYirong Sun, Yanjun Chen
We propose PRISM, a novel framework designed to overcome the limitations of 2D-based Preference-Based Reinforcement Learning (PBRL) by unifying 3D point cloud modeling and future-aware preference refinement. At its core, PRISM adopts a 3D Point Cloud-Language Model (3D-PC-LLM) to mitigate occlusion and viewpoint biases, ensuring more stable and spatially consistent preference signals. Additionally, PRISM leverages Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning to incorporate long-horizon considerations, thereby preventing the short-sighted feedback often seen in static preference comparisons. In contrast to conventional PBRL techniques, this integration of 3D perception and future-oriented reasoning leads to significant gains in preference agreement rates, faster policy convergence, and robust generalization across unseen robotic environments. Our empirical results, spanning tasks such as robotic manipulation and autonomous navigation, highlight PRISM's potential for real-world applications where precise spatial understanding and reliable long-term decision-making are critical. By bridging 3D geometric awareness with CoT-driven preference modeling, PRISM establishes a comprehensive foundation for scalable, human-aligned reinforcement learning.

Topological Graphic Passwords And Their Matchings Towards CryptographyBing Yao, Hui Sun, Xiaohui Zhang et al.
Graphical passwords (GPWs) are convenient for mobile equipments with touch screen. Topological graphic passwords (Topsnut-gpws) can be saved in computer by classical matrices and run quickly than the existing GPWs. We research Topsnut-gpws by the matching of view, since they have many advantages. We discuss: configuration matching partition, coloring/labelling matching partition, set matching partition, matching chain, etc. And, we introduce new graph labellings for enriching Topsnut-matchings and show that these labellings can be realized for trees or spanning trees of networks. In theoretical works we explore Graph Labelling Analysis, and show that every graph admits our extremal labellings and set-type labellings in graph theory. Many of the graph labellings mentioned are related with problems of set matching partitions to number theory, and yield new objects and new problems to graph theory.
