arXiv:2603.07927v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have transformed the software engineering landscape. Recently, numerous LLM-based agents have been developed to address real-world software issue fixing tasks. Despite their state-of-the-art performance, Despite achieving state-of-the-art performance, these agents face a significant challenge: \textbf{Insufficient high-quality issue descriptions.} Real-world datasets often exhibit misalignments between issue descriptions and their corresponding solutions, introducing noise and ambiguity that mislead automated agents and limit their problem-solving effectiveness. We propose \textbf{\textit{SWE-Fuse}}, an issue-description-aware training framework that fuses issue-description-guided and issue-free samples for training SWE agents. It consists of two key modules: (1) An issue-free-driven trajectory learning module for mitigating potentially misleading issue descriptions while enabling the model to learn step-by-step debugging processes; and (2) An entropy-aware RLVR training module, which adaptively adjusts training dynamics through entropy-driven clipping. It applies relaxed clipping under high entropy to encourage exploration, and stricter clipping under low entropy to ensure training stability. We evaluate SWE-Fuse on the widely studied SWE-bench Verified benchmark shows to demonstrate its effectiveness in solving real-world software problems. Specifically, SWE-Fuse outperforms the best 8B and 32B baselines by 43.0\% and 60.2\% in solve rate, respectively. Furthermore, integrating SWE-Fuse with test-time scaling (TTS) enables further performance improvements, achieving solve rates of 49.8\% and 65.2\% under TTS@8 for the 8B and 32B models, respectively.

arXiv:2602.14134v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated exceptional capabilities in high-level visual understanding. However, extending these models to fine-grained dense prediction tasks, such as semantic segmentation and depth estimation, typically necessitates the incorporation of complex, task-specific decoders and other customizations. This architectural fragmentation increases model complexity and deviates from the generalist design of MLLMs, ultimately limiting their practicality. In this work, we challenge this paradigm by accommodating standard MLLMs to perform dense predictions without requiring additional task-specific decoders. The proposed model is called DenseMLLM, grounded in the standard architecture with a novel vision token supervision strategy for multiple labels and tasks. Despite its minimalist design, our model achieves highly competitive performance across a wide range of dense prediction and vision-language benchmarks, demonstrating that a standard, general-purpose MLLM can effectively support dense perception without architectural specialization.
