SenseNova-U1.5: Towards Native Unified Visual Intelligence

SenseNova-U1.5 is an 8B‑MoT native unified multimodal model that can understand, reason about, and generate visual content without using an encoder or VAE. It improves visual fidelity and text rendering through spatially coherent patch reconstruction, large‑scale training on curated generation and editing data, and native resolutions up to 4K. Post‑training, specialized experts for visual aesthetics, bilingual text rendering, infographic generation, and image editing are optimized and distilled into a multi‑expert framework, yielding advances in image fidelity, complex composition, multi‑reference editing, and instruction following.

HandwritingAgent: Language-Driven Handwriting Synthesis in Scalable Vector Space

Teaching machines to emulate natural handwriting styles remains an open challenge, as it requires synthesizing stroke sequences that dynamically vary in shape, texture, pressure and script - not only across individuals, but also within a single person's handwriting. Attempts at this challenge have largely explored deep learning methods in both online and offline settings.

VinciCoder: Unifying Multimodal Code Generation via Coarse-to-fine Visual Reinforcement Learning

VinciCoder is a unified framework for multimodal code generation that addresses the limitations of single-task models by training on a large-scale curated corpus of 1.3 M direct generation pairs and 300 k visual‑refinement tasks. It introduces a coarse‑to‑fine Visual Reinforcement Learning (ViRL) approach that uses visual similarity across multi‑scale patches to provide an implementation‑agnostic reward, improving alignment between rendered outputs and input visuals. Experiments on diverse benchmarks show VinciCoder outperforms existing methods, and ablation studies confirm the effectiveness of ViRL.

Do Recipes Have Personas? Characterizing and Generating Creator Style in Attributed Procedural Graphs

The paper introduces ViralRecipesTrans, a dataset of execution flow graphs from culinary videos linked to specific creators, and proposes a graph learning framework to discover procedural personas. It shows that discrete topological metrics better capture a creator’s workflow than lexical classifiers, and presents a two‑stage generative model that predicts a creator’s exact execution graph for new dishes. The study finds that few‑shot LLMs excel at semantic assignment but lack macro‑planning, while the structured model offers superior topological control, and an ensemble approach combines both strengths for personalized workflow generation.

SI-Edit: Toward Sketch-Instruction Guided Local Image Editing with Pixel-Level Precision

Despite rapid advances in generative models, achieving pixel-level precision in sketch-based image editing remains a persistent challenge, particularly for fine-grained local deformations. This gap stems primarily from the critical shortage of high-quality, publicly available benchmark datasets that jointly provide geometric constraints and semantic instructions.
