AgenticSTS: A Bounded-Memory Testbed for Long-Horizon LLM Agents
Memory for a long-horizon LLM agent is a contract about what each future decision is allowed to see. The simplest contract appends past observations, tool calls, and reflections to every prompt, which makes prior context easy to access but also turns it into a jumbled mixture in which the effect of any single memory component is hard to isolate. We introduce and instrument an alternative bounded contract: every decision is made from a fresh user message assembled by typed retrieval, with no raw cross-decision transcript appended. The prompt thus stays bounded across runs of any length, and any
AlayaWorld: Long-Horizon and Playable Video World Generation
Game worlds have traditionally been built through labor-intensive production pipelines, making them costly to develop, difficult to customization, and expensive to modify after deployment. Recent advances in video world models offer a fundamentally different paradigm. Rather than explicitly authoring every component of a virtual environment, these models autoregressively synthesize future observations conditioned on the current world state and user interactions, enabling playable worlds to be generated online. Trained on both gameplay recordings and real-world videos, they can capture diverse
AlayaWorld: Interactive Long-Horizon World Modeling - Full Technical Report (v1.1)
This report presents an improved version of AlayaWorld. While the backbone architecture, chunk-wise autoregressive generation scheme, and training data remain unchanged from the previous release, we substantially revise how conditioning signals are represented and integrated into the model. The new design is guided by a simple principle: conditioning signals should match the generated content as closely as possible in both latent representation and temporal structure. To this end, we make two major changes. First, we replace the previous depth-warping-based spatial memory with a streaming 3D p
Generalized Synthetic Image Detection with Enhanced RGB-Noise Representation Learning
The rapid advancement of large-scale generative models has accelerated the spread of highly deceptive AI-generated images, making generalized synthetic image detection a critical imperative. Existing forensic networks often struggle with cross-model generalization and realworld degradations due to their reliance on single-domain representations and conventional binary classification optimization. To overcome these limitations, we propose RNSIDNet, a novel forensic framework that achieves robust detection through enhanced RGB-Noise representation learning. Specifically, our method employs a dua
From Pixels to States: Rethinking Interactive World Models as Game Engines
Building interactive worlds that respond coherently to player actions has long been a shared goal of computer graphics, games, and artificial intelligence. Recent video generative models provide a data-driven route toward this goal by predicting future observations conditioned on user actions, and are increasingly regarded as potential next-generation game engines. Realizing a genuinely interactive game world, however, requires interaction outcomes that follow rules over evolving game conditions, consequences that persist over long horizons, and a generation loop that operates in real time.
