Recent advances in generative video modeling have enabled diverse generation, reference-based synthesis, extension, and editing, but existing approaches often rely on fragmented task-specific models. A general model must distinguish heterogeneous target, source, and reference signals to determine what to generate, preserve, or use as guidance, while reducing interference among tasks.

Long audio-video reasoning is difficult for omnimodal LLMs because the decisive evidence is often sparse, cross-modal, and too expensive to preserve with uniformly high-fidelity inputs. We introduce OmniReasoner, a tool-use post-training framework for Thinking with Long Audio-Video: omni-modal LLMs learn, via supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning, to decide whether and where to call a zoom-in tool before answering.
The paper introduces the Neural Action Codec (NAC), a convolutional encoder‑decoder architecture that treats short robot action trajectories as multi‑channel 1D signals and compresses them using a multi‑scale residual vector quantization (RVQGAN) model. NAC replaces traditional discrete action tokenizers with a compact, ordered token space via offset codebooks, allowing standard autoregressive policies to operate over short, structured sequences while a Vocos‑style decoder reconstructs the actions. Experiments on LIBERO‑10, RoboMimic, and real‑world manipulation tasks show that NAC achieves higher reconstruction fidelity and better average success rates than existing binning, FAST, and VQ‑based tokenizers at comparable or improved compression rates.

Understanding dynamic sound sources requires jointly determining what produces a sound, where the source is located, and how it moves over time. Yet existing audio-language models often represent clips as global acoustic events, while vision-language models lack the spatial audio cues needed to localize and track individual sources.

Recent Large Audio Language Models (LALMs) have achieved remarkable progress in audio perceptual tasks across individual acoustic layers, including speech, sound, and music. However, existing benchmarks predominantly evaluate these layers in isolation, overlooking the complex contextual relationships that arise when multiple acoustic sources co-occur in real-world auditory scenes.
