SciForge: An AI-Native, Multimodal Workbench for Scientific Discovery
Scientific work increasingly spans heterogeneous artifacts -- papers, code, datasets, scientific file formats, model outputs, figures, manuscripts, and team decisions -- yet general-purpose AI assistants rarely preserve these objects as a coherent, auditable research state. We present SciForge, a multimodal research-native AI workbench that reserves the graphical interface for human judgment while search, parsing, model routing, workflow execution, plotting, writing, and presentation generation run as modular agent-accessible services. SciForge is built around five pillars: (i) \emph{goal-scop
STBridge: Shared-Target Alignment for Bridging Understanding and Generation in UMMs
Unified multimodal models (UMMs) aim to integrate visual understanding and generation within a single architecture, but architectural unification alone does not ensure semantic consistency. A model may describe the intended target correctly while generating an inconsistent edit. This exposes an understanding-generation alignment gap: linguistic and visual outputs live in different spaces, yet should be governed by the same target semantics. We study this gap in image editing, where an instruction defines a target state that can be both described and visually realized. Given a source image and
