arXiv:2609.12757v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Test-time scaling improves code generation by spending additional inference budget (e.g., calls or tokens) on direct sampling, feedback-conditioned repair, and reasoning-guided implementation. Search-based methods can allocate this budget adaptively, but two challenges remain. First, tree-structured search treats each generation history as a separate state even when trajectories converge to the same program, duplicating evaluation and preventing statistics from being shared. Second, sampling, repair, and reasoning have complementary and state-dependent payoffs, making online allocation among them difficult under a finite budget. To address these challenges, we propose an adaptive graph search method with heterogeneous actions (GraphAHA). GraphAHA organizes the test-time code generation in a typed directed acyclic graph. Equivalent programs are merged into a single code node, allowing their downstream search statistics to be reused across all discovery paths. Hierarchical Thompson sampling then selects whether to generate a new state or follow an existing successor and, for generation, chooses among the type-valid sampling, reasoning, implementation, and repair operations. Evaluated on LiveCodeBench and CodeContests with Qwen2.5-Coder and DeepSeek-Coder, GraphAHA achieves the best score in 18 of 20 cases. For Pass@1 measured using visible tests, it outperforms the strongest baseline for both models on both benchmarks by 4.1 percentage points on average, demonstrating more effective use of a fixed inference budget.

arXiv:2605.24687v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text-to-Image (T2I) models have made significant strides in visual realism and semantic consistency, yet they often perpetuate and amplify societal biases. Existing evaluation methods typically address only single-dimensional biases, lacking perspectives to uncover model biases at social-related deeper semantic levels. We introduce HoloFair, a comprehensive benchmark framework for multidimensional demographic bias analysis. Built upon our large-scale fairness-oriented dataset and the SpaFreq (Spatial-Frequency) attribute classifier, this framework proposes the Multi-attribute, Group-wise Bias Index (MGBI) metric, designed to assess both intrinsic diversity and conditional biases. Beyond evaluation, we further introduce Fair-GRPO, a reinforcement-learning-based debiasing method that alters the distribution of generative models through a designed multi-objective reward function. E.g., experiments on the SD3.5-Medium model demonstrate that Fair-GRPO significantly improves multidimensional fairness while maintaining high image quality. We also analyze potential reward hacking phenomena and provide corresponding mitigation strategies. Code and dataset are available at https://github.com/1059684669/HoloFair
