ScaleBox: Enabling High-Fidelity and Scalable Code Verification for Large Language Models

Code sandboxes have emerged as a critical infrastructure for advancing the coding capabilities of large language models, providing verifiable feedback for both RL training and evaluation. However, existing systems fail to provide accurate verification and efficiency under high-concurrency workloads. We present ScaleBox, a high-fidelity and scalable system designed to address these limitations in large-scale code training. ScaleBox introduces automated special-judge generation and management, fine-grained parallel execution across test cases with seamless multi-node coordination, and a configuration-driven evaluation suite for reproducible benchmarking. A series of experiments demonstrates that ScaleBox significantly enhances code verification accuracy and efficiency. Our further RLVR experiments show that ScaleBox substantially improves both performance on LiveCodeBench and training stability, significantly outperforming heuristic-matching baselines. By providing a reliable and high-throughput infrastructure, ScaleBox facilitates more effective research and development in large-scale code training.

Computational thermal multi-phase flow for metal additive manufacturing

Thermal multi-phase flow simulations are indispensable to understanding the multi-scale and multi-physics phenomena in metal additive manufacturing (AM) processes, yet accurate and robust predictions remain challenging. This book chapter summarizes the recent method development at UIUC for simulating thermal multiphase flows in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) and directed energy deposition (DED) processes. Two main method developments are discussed. The first is a mixed interface-capturing/interface-tracking computational framework aiming to explicitly treat the gas-metal interface without mesh motion/re-meshing. The second is a physics-based and non-empirical deposit geometry model for DED processes. The proposed framework's accuracy is assessed by thoroughly comparing the simulated results against experimental measurements on various quantities. We also report critical quantities that experiments can not measure to show the predictive capability of the developed methods.

Practical underwater quantum key distribution based on decoy-state BB84 protocol

Polarization encoding quantum key distribution has been proven to be a reliable method to build a secure communication system. It has already been used in inter-city fiber channel and near-earth atmosphere channel, leaving underwater channel the last barrier to conquer. Here we demonstrate a decoy-state BB84 quantum key distribution system over a water channel with a compact system design for future experiments in the ocean. In the system, a multiple-intensity modulated laser module is designed to produce the light pulses of quantum states, including signal state, decoy state and vacuum state. The classical communication and synchronization are realized by wireless optical transmission. Multiple filtering techniques and wavelength division multiplexing are further used to avoid crosstalk of different light. We test the performance of the system and obtain a final key rate of 245.6 bps with an average QBER of 1.91% over a 2.4m water channel, in which the channel attenuation is 16.35dB. Numerical simulation shows that the system can tolerate up to 21.7dB total channel loss and can still generate secure keys in 277.9m Jelov type 1 ocean channel.

Machine learning for metal additive manufacturing: Predicting temperature and melt pool fluid dynamics using physics-informed neural networks

The recent explosion of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) shows great potential in the breakthrough of metal additive manufacturing (AM) process modeling. However, the success of conventional machine learning tools in data science is primarily attributed to the unprecedented large amount of labeled data-sets (big data), which can be either obtained by experiments or first-principle simulations. Unfortunately, these labeled data-sets are expensive to obtain in AM due to the high expense of the AM experiments and prohibitive computational cost of high-fidelity simulations. We propose a physics-informed neural network (PINN) framework that fuses both data and first physical principles, including conservation laws of momentum, mass, and energy, into the neural network to inform the learning processes. To the best knowledge of the authors, this is the first application of PINN to three dimensional AM processes modeling. Besides, we propose a hard-type approach for Dirichlet boundary conditions (BCs) based on a Heaviside function, which can not only enforce the BCs but also accelerate the learning process. The PINN framework is applied to two representative metal manufacturing problems, including the 2018 NIST AM-Benchmark test series. We carefully assess the performance of the PINN model by comparing the predictions with available experimental data and high-fidelity simulation results. The investigations show that the PINN, owed to the additional physical knowledge, can accurately predict the temperature and melt pool dynamics during metal AM processes with only a moderate amount of labeled data-sets. The foray of PINN to metal AM shows the great potential of physics-informed deep learning for broader applications to advanced manufacturing.
