The efficiency of long-video inference remains a critical bottleneck, mainly due to the dense computation in the prefill stage of Large Multimodal Models (LMMs). Existing methods either compress visual embeddings or apply sparse attention on a single GPU, yielding limited acceleration or degraded performance and restricting LMMs from handling longer, more complex videos. To overcome these issues, we propose APB-V, a sequence-parallel framework with optimized attention that accelerates long-video inference across multiple GPUs. By distributing approximate attention, APB-V reduces computation and increases parallelism, enabling efficient processing of more visual embeddings without compression and thereby improving task performance. System-level optimizations, such as load balancing and fused forward passes, further unleash the potential of APB-V, delivering speedups of 12.72x, 1.70x, and 1.18x over FlashAttn, ZigZagRing, and APB, without notable performance loss.

Reasoning Language Models (RLMs) have significantly improved performance on complex tasks by extending the reasoning chain. However, these chains are prone to containing factual errors, particularly in knowledge-intensive tasks. To address this issue, we propose **CheckRLM**, a framework that improves the reliability of the reasoning process through Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) by timely checking and correcting factual errors. Specifically, CheckRLM extracts factual claims from the reasoning chain to identify and localize subtle knowledge inconsistencies during inference. Upon detection of errors, a refinement mechanism performs minimal-cost yet precise corrections by leveraging external knowledge, ensuring coherence between the reasoning chain and correct knowledge. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CheckRLM substantially outperforms existing baselines, exhibiting a strong capability to mitigate error accumulation in long-horizon reasoning with lower costs.

Efficient reproduction of research papers is pivotal to accelerating scientific progress. However, the increasing complexity of proposed methods often renders reproduction a labor-intensive endeavor, necessitating profound domain expertise.To address this, we introduce the paper lineage, which systematically mines implicit knowledge from the cited literature. This algorithm serves as the backbone of our proposed , a multi-agent framework designed to autonomously reproduce experimental code in a complete, end-to-end manner. To ensure code executability, incorporates a sampling-based unit testing strategy for rapid validation. To assess reproduction capabilities, we introduce , a benchmark featuring verified implementations, alongside comprehensive metrics for evaluating both reproduction and execution fidelity. Extensive evaluations on PaperBench and demonstrate that consistently surpasses existing baselines across all metrics. Notably, it yields substantial improvements in reproduction fidelity and final execution performance. The code is available at https://github.com/AI9Stars/AutoReproduce.

Although existing frameworks for large language model (LLM) inference on CPUs are mature, they fail to fully exploit the computational potential of many-core CPU platforms. Many-core CPUs are widely deployed in web servers and high-end networking devices, and are typically organized into multiple NUMA nodes that group cores and memory. Current frameworks largely overlook the substantial overhead of cross-NUMA memory access, limiting inference scalability and intelligence enabling on such platforms. To address this limitation, we build ArcLight, a lightweight LLM inference architecture designed from the ground up for many-core CPUs. ArcLight integrates efficient memory management and thread scheduling, and introduces finely controlled tensor parallelism to mitigate the cross-node memory access wall. Experimental results show that ArcLight significantly surpasses the performance ceiling of mainstream frameworks, achieving up to 46% higher inference throughput. Moreover, ArcLight maintains compatibility with arbitrary CPU devices. ArcLight is publicly available at https://github.com/OpenBMB/ArcLight.
