Existing spatial reasoning benchmarks mainly test spatial perception: reading off relations already visible in the input. Yet real-world spatial intelligence demands predictive spatial reasoning: constructing a scene from observations, anticipating how an intervention changes it, and reasoning about the unseen outcome....
Dense retrieval usually ranks text chunks by their semantic similarity to a question. This ignores structure that many data systems already store, including section membership, session boundaries, and native order. We propose NativeScope, a scope-then-rank method for queries with a known anchor and relation. It represe...
Recent full-duplex spoken dialog models enable simultaneous listening and speaking, but fine-grained models still advance their backbone autoregressively at every interaction frame. We introduce DiffuPlex, a rolling masked diffusion framework that reduces this sequential computation by predicting multiple future user a...
Full-duplex speech models can listen and speak simultaneously, enabling natural interaction, but become increasingly difficult to control as the conversation history grows. When used as user simulators, this lack of control can cause them to deviate from prescribed scenarios and produce unreliable evaluation outcomes....

Project Greenhouse represents our exploration of a simple thesis: We believe that it is possible to build fully open and sovereign models for agentic search with only modest computational resources. As a first milestone, we describe how to build a competitive pointwise decoder-only reranker using a simple two-step reci...
Historical pull requests record the design decisions, compatibility constraints, and implementation patterns behind a codebase's current state. Experience relevant to a new task can span related changes whose descriptions emphasize different concerns. We introduce Chronos, a test-time framework that makes this connecte...
Recent large vision-language models (VLMs) pair a visual encoder with a large language model (LLM) and perform well on diverse image-text tasks, yet their reliability is often limited by decoder attention pathologies that suppress visual evidence and exacerbate hallucinations. In this paper, we revisit visual attention...
Natural-language style descriptions provide an interpretable interface between large language models (LLMs) and controllable text-to-speech (TTS). However, using descriptions as pseudo-labels compresses target acoustics into text, and descriptive fidelity need not imply effective control of a particular synthesizer. We...
We introduce and study pattern-based tree transformations. As an illustrating example, consider a source pattern $(x \cdot y) + (x \cdot z)$ and a target pattern $x \cdot (y + z)$ as a pair. This source pattern matches any expression $e$ of the form $(e_1 \cdot e_2) + (e_1 \cdot e_3)$ (by substituting $x$ with $e_1$, $...
A core challenge in short-video fact-checking is identifying which evidence is sufficient to support a verification conclusion. Existing approaches either give the verifier all available evidence, introducing noise, or select evidence by topical relevance, which conflates relatedness with sufficiency. We identify evide...
Tokenizers are commonly optimized for compression, but a compact vocabulary does not necessarily distribute its capacity evenly across languages. We introduce the Latent Core Tokenizer (LCT), a language-agnostic approach that separates structural discovery from vocabulary construction. LCT uses Minimum Description Leng...
Skills, reusable procedural guidance added at inference, can substantially improve LLM downstream performance (Li et al., 2026). Prior work retrieves skills from a bank by semantic relevance, then uses them as inference-time patches or for model distillation. The individual utility of each skill, however, is largely ne...

We’re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.
A new computational approach reveals how cells communicate to assemble into tissues. This could accelerate stem cell engineering, improve disease models, and inform therapies.
Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
