arXiv:2605.24489v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Enzyme-reaction retrieval is a fundamental problem in computational biology, underpinning enzyme characterization, reaction mechanism elucidation, and the rational design of metabolic pathways and biocatalysts. As a bidirectional task, it entails both enzyme-to-reaction and reaction-to-enzyme mapping. However, existing approaches suffer from poor generalization across tasks and distributions, with performance highly sensitive to dataset splits and substantial asymmetry between retrieval directions. To address these challenges, we present TIGER, a Text-Informed Generalized Enzyme-Reaction Retrieval framework that leverages protein-to-text generation models to distill textual semantic knowledge from enzyme sequences, providing a generalized representation that bridges enzymes and biochemical reactions. To ensure the quality and reliability of textual semantics, we design a Dynamic Gating Network that adaptively fuses text-derived knowledge with sequence features, enabling more consistent and informative enzyme representations, while a Structure-Shared Feature Projector aligns enzyme and reaction representations within a unified latent space. Extensive experiments demonstrate that, under bidirectional retrieval supervision, TIGER significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines across diverse distributions and exhibits strong robustness and transferability across tasks.

arXiv:2605.25435v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid evolution of large language model (LLM)-driven autonomous agents has given rise to OpenClaw, a new class of open-source agent frameworks that operate as continuously running, skill-augmented systems with persistent memory, multi-channel interaction, and high degrees of autonomy. Such capabilities enable OpenClaw agents to autonomously execute complex, multi-step tasks and interact seamlessly with external applications, but simultaneously introduce a substantially enlarged attack surface. In particular, the combination of high-privilege operations and persistent memory exposes OpenClaw agents to various emerging threats, including skill poisoning, cognitive manipulation, multi-agent cascading failures, and supply-chain vulnerabilities. In this survey, we present a comprehensive study of the security landscape of OpenClaw agents. We first examine the general architecture and key characteristics that distinguish OpenClaw agents from traditional AI agent systems. We categorize existing security and privacy threats into a layered framework and analyze how vulnerabilities arise during agent reasoning, action execution, and external interaction. Representative defense mechanisms are also reviewed to draw the current defense landscape. Finally, several unresolved issues related to the reliability and trustworthiness of OpenClaw ecosystems are discussed.

arXiv:2605.24958v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite the strong performance of deep neural networks in modern Web and language applications, they remain vulnerable to adversarial attacks, especially transferable attacks that generate adversarial examples using surrogate models without accessing the victim model. Transferable attacks in the text domain are still under-explored, with only a few studies addressing this challenging issue, often with suboptimal results due to equal treatment of submodels or inaccurate estimation of importance scores. To address these challenges, we propose a simple yet effective paradigm for transfer-based textual adversarial attack, named SEP-Attack. Specifically, we employ the Determinantal Point Process (DPP) to generate diverse surrogate ensemble weights, representing the transferability of submodels. Using these weights, we introduce a new metric to evaluate prediction confidence scores, which in turn are used to calculate word importance scores and generate adversarial candidates. Finally, we quantify the transferability score for each candidate and select the top ones as the final transferable adversarial examples. Experiments conducted on four datasets and two real-world APIs validate the efficacy of SEP-Attack, significantly outperforming state-of-the-art baselines.

arXiv:2510.08558v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A long-term goal of language agents is to learn and improve through their own experience, ultimately outperforming humans in complex, real-world tasks. However, training agents from experience data with reinforcement learning remains difficult in many environments, which either lack verifiable rewards (e.g., websites) or require inefficient long-horizon rollouts (e.g., multi-turn tool use). As a result, most current agents rely on supervised fine-tuning on expert data, which is challenging to scale and generalizes poorly. This limitation stems from the nature of expert demonstrations: they capture only a narrow range of scenarios, and expose the agent to limited environment diversity. We address this limitation with a middle-ground paradigm we call early experience: interaction data generated by the agent's own actions, where the resulting future states serve as supervision without reward signals. Within this paradigm, we study two strategies of using such data: (1) implicit world modeling, which uses collected states to ground the policy in environment dynamics; and (2) self-reflection, where the agent learns from its suboptimal actions to improve reasoning and decision-making. Evaluation across eight diverse environments and multiple model families shows that our approaches consistently improve effectiveness and out-of-domain generalization, highlighting the value of early experience. Moreover, in environments with verifiable rewards, our results provide promising signals that early experience offers a strong foundation for subsequent reinforcement learning, making it a practical bridge between imitation learning and fully experience-driven agents.

arXiv:2602.18527v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Current audio-visual large language models (AV-LLMs) are predominantly restricted to 2D perception, relying on RGB video and monaural audio. This design choice introduces a fundamental dimensionality mismatch that precludes reliable source localization and spatial reasoning in complex 3D environments. We address this limitation by presenting JAEGER, a framework that extends AV-LLMs to 3D space, to enable joint spatial grounding and reasoning through the integration of RGB-D observations and multi-channel first-order ambisonics. A core contribution of our work is the neural intensity vector (Neural IV), a learned spatial audio representation that encodes robust directional cues to enhance direction-of-arrival estimation, even in adverse acoustic scenarios with overlapping sources. To facilitate large-scale training and systematic evaluation, we propose SpatialSceneQA, a benchmark of 61k instruction-tuning samples curated from simulated physical environments. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach consistently surpasses 2D-centric baselines across diverse spatial perception and reasoning tasks, underscoring the necessity of explicit 3D modelling for advancing AI in physical environments. Our source code, pre-trained model checkpoints, and datasets are available at https://github.com/liuzhan22/JAEGER.

arXiv:2603.06626v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Traditional Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) training typically proceeds without any structural priors, effectively requiring the model to simultaneously train expert weights while searching for an optimal routing policy within a vast combinatorial space. This entanglement often leads to sluggish convergence and training instabilities. This paper introduces Grouter, a preemptive routing method that by distilling high-quality structures from fully-trained MoE models and serving as a fixed router for target models. By decoupling structural optimization from weight updates, Grouter significantly accelerates both the speed and quality of model convergence. To ensure the framework's versatility, we also introduce expert folding to adapt Grouter across varying model configurations and expert tuning to rebalance workloads across different data distributions. Furthermore, by leveraging the structural priors provided by preemptive routing, we can implement targeted optimizations to further enhance training throughput. Experiments demonstrate that Grouter achieves superior performance and efficiency which boosts pre-training data utilization by 4.28x and achieves up to 33.5% throughput acceleration, establishing preemptive routing as a fundamental paradigm for scalable MoE training. We publicly release our code and pretrained Grouter checkpoints at https://github.com/JimmyAwoe/Grouter.
