Rover: Context-aware Conflict Resolution with LLM

Code merging is a significant challenge, particularly in large-scale projects. Existing solutions, including program analysis and machine learning, show promise but face critical limitations. Program analysis lacks the ability to infer developers' intentions, relying on conservative strategies that offload unresolved conflicts for manual handling. Meanwhile, model-based approaches struggle with conflicts involving complex code dependencies due to insufficient contextual awareness. To address these gaps, we introduce Rover, a novel conflict resolution system that integrates program analysis with large language models (LLMs). To obtain context-aware prompts, we propose Multi-layer Code Property Graph (MtCPG), a new representation capturing inter-file dependencies and enabling contextual analysis for a given conflict. Using graph connectivity algorithms, Rover further clusters conflicting code and associated changes into meaningful "contexts" that guide the LLM in generating accurate resolutions. We compared Rover with standalone LLMs, machine learning baseline MergeGen, and suggestion provider tool WizardMerge with adjacent code as the contexts. Evaluation results show that Rover surpasses all of these approaches in terms of conflict resolution, achieving higher similarity to ground-truth resolutions at character, lexical, and semantic levels.

UniF$^2$ace: A Unified Fine-grained Face Understanding and Generation Model

Unified multimodal models (UMMs) have emerged as a powerful paradigm in fundamental cross-modality research, demonstrating significant potential in both image understanding and generation. However, existing research in the face domain primarily faces two challenges: $\textbf{(1)}$ $\textbf{fragmentation development}$, with existing methods failing to unify understanding and generation into a single one, hindering the way to artificial general intelligence. $\textbf{(2) lack of fine-grained facial attributes}$, which are crucial for high-fidelity applications. To handle those issues, we propose $\textbf{UniF$^2$ace}$, $\textit{the first UMM specifically tailored for fine-grained face understanding and generation}$. $\textbf{First}$, we introduce a novel theoretical framework with a Dual Discrete Diffusion (D3Diff) loss, unifying masked generative models with discrete score matching diffusion and leading to a more precise approximation of the negative log-likelihood. Moreover, this D3Diff significantly enhances the model's ability to synthesize high-fidelity facial details aligned with text input. $\textbf{Second}$, we propose a multi-level grouped Mixture-of-Experts architecture, adaptively incorporating the semantic and identity facial embeddings to complement the attribute forgotten phenomenon in representation evolvement. $\textbf{Finally}$, to this end, we construct UniF$^2$aceD-1M, a large-scale dataset comprising 130K fine-grained image-caption pairs and 1M visual question-answering pairs, spanning a much wider range of facial attributes than existing datasets. Extensive experiments demonstrate that UniF$^2$ace outperforms existing models with a similar scale in both understanding and generation tasks, with 7.1\% higher Desc-GPT and 6.6\% higher VQA-score, respectively.

What Happens Before Decoding? Prefill Determines GUI Grounding in VLMs

Existing training-free approaches for GUI grounding often rely on multiple inference runs, such as iterative cropping or candidate aggregation, to identify target elements. Despite this additional computation, each forward pass still independently interprets the instruction and parses the visual layout, without enabling progressive interaction among visual tokens. In this paper, we study what happens during GUI grounding in Vision-Language Models (VLMs) and identify a previously overlooked bottleneck. We show that grounding follows a two-stage paradigm: the prefill stage determines candidate UI elements, while the decoding stage subsequently refines the final coordinates. This asymmetry establishes prefill as the critical step, as errors in candidate selection cannot be effectively corrected during decoding. Based on this observation, we propose Re-Prefill, a training-free method that revisits inference by introducing an attention-guided second prefill stage to refine target selection. Specifically, visual tokens that consistently receive high attention from the query position, i.e., the final token, across layers are extracted as a preliminary target hypothesis and appended to the input, together with the instruction hidden states, enabling the model to deeply re-think its decision before coordinate generation. Experiments across four VLMs and five benchmarks, including ScreenSpot-Pro, ScreenSpot-V2, OSWorld-G, UI-Vision, and MMBench-GUI, demonstrate consistent improvements without additional training, with gains of up to 4.3% on ScreenSpot-Pro. Code will be available at https://github.com/linjiaping1/Re-Prefill.
