Context Training with Active Information Seeking

Most existing large language models (LLMs) are expensive to adapt after deployment, especially when a task requires newly produced information or niche domain knowledge. Recent work has shown that, by manipulating and optimizing their context, LLMs can be tailored to downstream tasks without updating their weights. However, most existing methods remain closed-loop, relying solely on the model's intrinsic knowledge. In this paper, we equip these context optimizers with Wikipedia search and browser tools for active information seeking. We show that naively adding these tools to a standard sequential context optimization pipeline can actually degrade performance compared to baselines. However, when paired with a search-based training procedure that maintains and prunes multiple candidate contexts, active information seeking delivers consistent and substantial gains. We demonstrate these improvements across diverse domains, including low-resource translation (Flores+), health scenarios (HealthBench), and reasoning-heavy tasks (LiveCodeBench and Humanity's Last Exam). Furthermore, our method proves to be data-efficient, robust across different hyperparameters, and capable of generating effective textual contexts that generalize well across different models.

Mixed Reality Scenic Live Streaming for Cultural Heritage: Visual Interactions in a Historic Landscape

Scenic Live Streams (SLS), capturing real-world scenic sites from fixed cameras without streamers, have gained increasing popularity recently. They afford unique real-time lenses into remote sites for viewers' synchronous and collective engagement. Foregrounding its lack of dynamism and interactivity, we aim to maximize the potential of SLS by making it interactive. Namely MRSLS, we overlaid plain SLS with interactive Mixed Reality content that matches the site's geographical structures and local cultural backgrounds. We further highlight the substantial benefit of MRSLS to cultural heritage site interactions, and we demonstrate this design proposal with an MRSLS prototype at a UNESCO-listed heritage site in China. The design process includes an interview (N=6) to pinpoint local scenery and culture, as well as two iterative design studies (N=15, 14). A mixed-methods, between-subjects study (N=43, 37) shows that MRSLS affords immersive scenery appreciation, effective cultural imprints, and vivid shared experience. With its balance between cultural, participatory, and authentic attributes, we appeal for more HCI attention to (MR)SLS as an under-explored design space.

The Cancellation Hypothesis in Critic-Free RL: From Outcome Rewards to Token Credits

A commonly accepted explanation of critic-free RL for LLMs, based on sequence-level rewards, is that it reinforces successful rollouts with a positive advantage while penalizing failed ones. In contrast, we study critic-free RL from a token-level perspective, revealing the token-flipping phenomenon: positive and negative rollouts exhibit remarkably similar proportions of tokens whose probabilities are boosted or suppressed during RL training. To explain this phenomenon, we further show that a token's change in probability is not fully determined by its own advantage; coupled gradient interactions with other tokens also play a non-negligible role. Specifically, these token coupling effects occur primarily between identical tokens that are both predicted with low confidence. Building upon this analysis, we propose the cancellation hypothesis: as a result of coupling, opposing signals cancel out for tokens shared by positive and negative rollouts, while tokens more specific to successful rollouts receive stronger reinforcement, thereby inducing hidden token-level credit assignment from rollout-level rewards. We support this hypothesis with complementary empirical evidence. (1) Compared with training on only positive rollouts, critic-free RL shifts updates from template and formatting tokens toward reasoning tokens; (2) Tokens boosted by critic-free RL consistently demonstrate higher value than suppressed tokens, regardless of whether they originate from positive or negative rollouts. Guided by this view, we implement two batching interventions to encourage or preserve cancellation in critic-free RL training: query-preserved mini-batching and reward-balanced batching. Despite their simplicity, these interventions improve RLVR training across multiple model scales, supporting cancellation as both an explanatory principle and a practical design criterion for critic-free RL training.

Graph2Plan: Learning Floorplan Generation from Layout Graphs

We introduce a learning framework for automated floorplan generation which combines generative modeling using deep neural networks and user-in-the-loop designs to enable human users to provide sparse design constraints. Such constraints are represented by a layout graph. The core component of our learning framework is a deep neural network, Graph2Plan, which converts a layout graph, along with a building boundary, into a floorplan that fulfills both the layout and boundary constraints. Given an input building boundary, we allow a user to specify room counts and other layout constraints, which are used to retrieve a set of floorplans, with their associated layout graphs, from a database. For each retrieved layout graph, along with the input boundary, Graph2Plan first generates a corresponding raster floorplan image, and then a refined set of boxes representing the rooms. Graph2Plan is trained on RPLAN, a large-scale dataset consisting of 80K annotated floorplans. The network is mainly based on convolutional processing over both the layout graph, via a graph neural network (GNN), and the input building boundary, as well as the raster floorplan images, via conventional image convolution.
