Luce: Relightable Gaussians for 3D Asset Generation

High-fidelity image-to-3D generation requires a 3D representation that captures both geometry and appearance. To support relighting and integration into standard rendering pipelines, the representation should include physically based rendering (PBR) modalities such as albedo, metallic-roughness, and surface normals. We propose Luce, a 3D representation that unifies geometry and PBR materials within a voxelized multimodal Gaussian cloud, using dedicated Gaussian primitives for each modality. A variational autoencoder compresses this representation into a unified material-aware latent space. A…

IDEA Prune: An Integrated Enlarge-and-Prune Pipeline in Generative Language Model Pretraining

Recent advancements in large language models have intensified the need for efficient and deployable models within limited inference budgets. Structured pruning pipelines have shown promise in token efficiency compared to training target-size models from scratch. In this paper, we advocate incorporating enlarged model pretraining, which is often ignored in previous works, into pruning. We study the enlarge-and-prune pipeline as an integrated system to address two critical questions: whether it is worth pretraining an enlarged model even when the model is never deployed, and how to optimize the…

PROOF-Gen: From Optimized Data to Better Distillation

Supervised fine-tuning on teacher-generated trajectories is the standard first stage for distilling tool-calling capabilities into deployable models. Post-training pipelines that drive shipped tool-calling agents re-run this stage on a daily or weekly cadence, paying the frontier-teacher cost each cycle, yet the mechanism is generate-and-filter (keep the teacher’s passing trajectories, discard the rest) and each cycle leaves behind the same hard scenarios because failures supply no signal. On τ 2-bench, 57% of teacher trials fail, two-thirds of them near-misses (most tool calls correct, undone…
