Omni Interaction Agent Technical Report

The technical report introduces Gander, an end‑to‑end model that integrates omni perception, real‑time interaction, and agentic capabilities into a single framework. Unlike traditional turn‑based systems, Gander continuously processes streaming inputs from video, speech, and text, enabling natural full‑duplex interaction in both everyday conversations and workflow‑oriented scenarios. Its architecture features a Cerebellum‑Brain collaboration—where the Cerebellum handles real‑time interaction and omni conversational tasks while the Brain manages complex reasoning—and a streaming Thinker‑Talker design that flattens inputs and outputs into an ordered token stream for low‑latency, continuous dialogue. Evaluations across conversational ability, omni understanding, interactive capability, and agentic intelligence show that Gander matches state‑of‑the‑art open‑source models in spoken dialogue while maintaining robust performance in noisy, multi‑party, and backchannel environments.

Multi-turn Conversational AI from Text to Multimodal Interaction: Data, Models, Evaluation, and Open Challenges

The article surveys multi‑turn conversational AI, highlighting its shift from isolated text prompts to sustained, multimodal interactions that involve clarifying goals, revising requests, and switching topics. It reviews literature across text‑only dialogue, AudioLLMs, multimodal and omni‑modal systems, and tool‑augmented agents, organizing findings around datasets, models, training, evaluation, and cross‑cutting challenges. The analysis reveals that while multimodal perception and action have progressed rapidly, systems still struggle with persistent memory, cross‑turn grounding, full‑duplex interaction, robust evaluation, and cultural alignment.

DuplexAgent-RSI: Recursive Harness Improvement for Full-Duplex Voice Agent Collaboration

DuplexAgent-RSI is a full‑duplex voice‑agent collaboration system that coordinates continuous listening and speaking with asynchronous delegation to reasoning and coding agents. Its harness is modular, consisting of six editable components, and a closed‑loop improvement process (Duplex‑Harness‑RSI) revises these modules based on interaction traces and failure diagnostics. Experiments show that this approach yields stronger spoken‑knowledge and executable‑tool performance than comparable delegated systems while preserving robust interruption response.
