arXiv:2603.29318v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Smartphone GUI agents execute tasks by operating directly on app interfaces, offering a path to broad capability without deep system integration. However, real-world smartphone use is highly personalized: users adopt diverse workflows and preferences, challenging agents to deliver customized assistance rather than generic solutions. Existing GUI agent benchmarks cannot adequately capture this personalization dimension due to sparse user-specific data and the lack of fine-grained evaluation metrics. To address this gap, we present PSPA-Bench, the benchmark dedicated to evaluating personalization in smartphone GUI agents. PSPA-Bench comprises over 12,855 personalized instructions aligned with real-world user behaviors across 10 representative daily-use scenarios and 22 mobile apps, and introduces a structure-aware process evaluation method that measures agents' personalized capabilities at a fine-grained level. Through PSPA-Bench, we benchmark 11 state-of-the-art GUI agents. Results reveal that current methods perform poorly under personalized settings, with even the strongest agent achieving limited success. Our analysis further highlights three directions for advancing personalized GUI agents: (1) reasoning-oriented models consistently outperform general LLMs, (2) perception remains a simple yet critical capability, and (3) reflection and long-term memory mechanisms are key to improving adaptation. Together, these findings establish PSPA-Bench as a foundation for systematic study and future progress in personalized GUI agents.

arXiv:2506.10848v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion-based language models (dLLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional autoregressive LLMs by enabling parallel token generation and significantly reducing inference latency. However, existing sampling strategies for dLLMs, such as confidence-based or semi-autoregressive decoding, often suffer from static behavior, leading to suboptimal efficiency and limited flexibility. In this paper, we propose SlowFast Sampling, a novel dynamic sampling strategy that adaptively alternates between exploratory and accelerated decoding stages. Our method is guided by three golden principles: certainty principle, convergence principle, and positional principle, which govern when and where tokens can be confidently and efficiently decoded. We further integrate our strategy with dLLM-Cache to reduce redundant computation. Extensive experiments across benchmarks and models show that SlowFast Sampling achieves up to 15.63$\times$ speedup on LLaDA with minimal accuracy drop, and up to 34.22$\times$ when combined with caching. Notably, our approach outperforms strong autoregressive baselines like LLaMA3 8B in throughput, demonstrating that well-designed sampling can unlock the full potential of dLLMs for fast and high-quality generation.

ABSTRACT

Gastric cancer (GC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide, with poor prognosis for advanced-stage patients. Therefore, in-depth exploration of the mechanisms underlying GC initiation and progression, as well as the development of novel therapeutic strategies, is of crucial importance. Cellular senescence is a stable cell cycle arrest program that plays a dual role in GC. It exerts tumor-suppressive effects via growth arrest but also promotes tumor progression and immune evasion by remodeling the tumor microenvironment (TME) through senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). This review comprehensively elucidates the molecular mechanisms of cellular senescence in GC and the core regulatory networks involving gene regulation, epigenetic modifications, metabolic reprogramming, and cell cycle arrest. Additionally, the review highlights how senescent cells foster an immunosuppressive microenvironment via SASP, forming a self-reinforcing feed-forward loop. Regarding therapeutic strategies, we summarize potential approaches targeting cellular senescence, including senescence induction, senescent cell clearance, SASP modulation, and multi-target synergistic therapy by integrating epigenetic regulation, metabolic intervention, and immune microenvironment modulation. Despite progress, numerous challenges remain. Future studies should leverage multi-omics technologies, novel models' development, and large-scale clinical trials to advance the clinical translation of GC cellular senescence research, providing new insights for improving prognosis.
