Harbor Adapters and Harbor-Index: Infrastructure and a Curated Meta-Dataset for Large-Scale Agentic Evaluation

arXiv:2609.04298v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Evaluating agents on the growing number of agentic benchmarks is challenging because they often require complex environments and agent integrations. We introduce Harbor Adapters, a unified evaluation infrastructure for agentic benchmarks. Our work makes three contributions. First, we develop benchmark adapters that port more than 80 benchmarks to evaluate arbitrary agents, and validate them through rigorous code review and parity experiments. Second, we conduct a large-scale evaluation of 8 models spanning capability tiers across 54 benchmarks; every model is run with Terminus-2 and with one of 3 native harnesses. This enables a broader analysis of agent capabilities and failure modes than was previously possible. Third, we introduce Harbor-Index, a curated set of 82 difficult, diverse, and high-quality tasks spanning 29 benchmarks, refined from the adapted suite through difficulty filtering, AI and human audit, and an audit-and-fix loop. Harbor-Index preserves the challenge and breadth of large-scale agentic evaluations while being affordable to run; no evaluated model-harness configuration exceeds 30% pass rate, and the strongest (GPT-5.5 with Codex) reaches 28.0%. We release the adapters, evaluation results, in-depth analysis, and Harbor-Index as open-source artifacts to support more reliable and comprehensive evaluation of language-model agents.

LG-HCC: Local Geometry-Aware Hierarchical Context Compression for 3D Gaussian Splatting

arXiv:2603.28431v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Although 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) enables high-fidelity real-time rendering, its prohibitive storage overhead severely hinders practical deployment. Recent anchor-based 3DGS compression schemes reduce gaussina redundancy through ome advanced context models. However, overlook explicit geometric dependencies, leading to structural degradation and suboptimal rate-distortion performance. In this paper, we propose LG-HCC, a geometry-aware 3DGS compression framework that incorporates inter-anchor geometric correlations into anchor pruning and entropy coding for compact representation. Specifically, we introduce an Neighborhood-Aware Anchor Pruning (NAAP) strategy, which evaluates anchor importance via weighted neighborhood feature aggregation and merges redundant anchors into salient neighbors, yielding a compact yet geometry-consistent anchor set. Building upon this optimized structure, we further develop a hierarchical entropy coding scheme, in which coarse-to-fine priors are exploited through a lightweight Geometry-Guided Convolution (GG-Conv) operator to enable spatially adaptive context modeling and rate-distortion optimization. Extensive experiments demonstrate that LG-HCC effectively resolves the structure preservation bottleneck, maintaining superior geometric integrity and rendering fidelity over state-of-the-art anchor-based compression approaches.
