Left-hand open-source model, right-hand creative Agent—Hi3D’s AI 3D second act
Author | Cynthia Editor | Zheng Xuan In 2026, the AI 3D landscape stands at a delicate crossroads. Momentum in the primary market continues to surge, with new models and startups emerging one after another, and single-image-to-3D generation now delivers photorealistic results that are almost indistinguishable from real-world objects. Yet beneath the dazzling demo façade, most generated outputs remain stuck at the “turntable showcase” stage: a meticulously crafted character or mechanical model slowly rotates under lighting, its scales, fabric folds, and metallic engravings rendered with lifelike detail. But as soon as these details enter real‑world production workflows—such as game engine rigging, industrial simulation, or 3D printing—their limitations quickly surface: structural fractures, backside collapses, fused details, and uneditable meshes begin to erupt, swallowing up the efficiency gains brought by AI through costly manual post‑processing. Fidelity in frontal views no longer equates to overall 3D quality—a consensus that’s taking hold across the industry. The race for AI‑driven 3D has shifted from the first half—“Can we generate?”—to the second half—“Can we deliver in real‑world applications?” It is precisely at this juncture that leading player Hi3D has made two strategic moves: officially open‑sourcing its production‑proven Hi3D V1.0 platform, while simultaneously launching the creator‑centric Hi3D Agent, which bridges the industry’s foundational layers and deeply embeds itself within the full creative workflow. Prior to this, the company—founded less than three years ago—had already delivered a solid track record: securing two consecutive rounds of funding within six months, totaling nearly $50 million, with top-tier investors like Sequoia China, IDG Capital, and Meituan Longzhu all participating; its Hi3D platform now serves over 120 countries and regions, supporting more than 2 million creators, and enjoys deep integrations with leading hardware manufacturers such as Tuzhu Technology and xTool. From academic breakthroughs in sparse geometry to open‑source, production‑ready models, and end‑to‑end connectivity via its Agent creation system, Hi3D has secured its ticket to the next phase of 3D generation. 01 3D Generation: Overhyped Demos, Underestimated Production Gaps The underlying logic of single‑image‑to‑3D generation inherently carries a perspective bias. As metrics like ULIP and Uni3D have repeatedly set new benchmarks, the industry’s past few years have been marked by an emphasis on front-facing views at the expense of holistic understanding, and on outward appearance rather than internal structure. However, the essence of a 3D asset lies in its ability to be rotated, edited, and manufactured as a three‑dimensional object. In a single character image, the vertical…

ProtoEEG: Structured Prototype Alignment for EEG Visual Decoding
arXiv:2610.33065v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: EEG visual decoding remains difficult because scalp recordings are noisy, spatially coarse, and variable across trials and subjects. Most systems align each trial with a dense image embedding, although that embedding mixes semantic content with instance-specific texture, pose, and background. This target can demand details absent from EEG and provides no explicit account of the visual factors supporting a prediction. We propose \textbf{ProtoEEG}, a prototype-mediated framework that reformulates EEG--image alignment as soft composition over a shared learnable visual codebook. A trainable EEG encoder and a frozen visual teacher produce assignment distributions over the same $K=64$ prototypes. Their weighted reconstructions form a structured rep

A Mathematical Theory of the Jacobian Lens
arXiv:2610.31955v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent work from Anthropic introduced a new interpretability tool, called the Jacobian lens (J-lens, Gurnee et al., 2026). This method identified linear directions in the hidden states of frontier language models that had properties reminiscent of working memory-like representations. However, it is unclear what mechanistic properties of such features make them detectable to the J-lens. To this end, we introduce a mathematical theory of the J-lens, and show that it preferentially identifies coherent features -- directions that act like leading, spatially coherent Lyapunov modes. Small perturbations along these directions amplify across layers, remain roughly constant across token positions, and are consistent across different contexts. While w

MANTA: Unlocking DAG Flexibility in Asynchronous BFT
arXiv:2610.34419v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: DAG-based BFT protocols marked a shift in consensus design by replacing single-leader proposal paths with concurrent block proposals linked through a shared graph, where references encode consensus evidence. However, under heterogeneous wide-area networks (WANs), existing designs suffer from prolonged rounds and degraded performance due to straggler effects. The root cause is rigid round advancement: replicas move in synchronized rounds, waiting for enough references from the previous round before advancing. We propose a flexible DAG growth framework for asynchronous BFT consensus. Our key observation is that while reference quorums are necessary for safety and liveness, they need not block every round advancement. Instead, the connectivity r

PRISM: Promoting Sampling Diversity of Large Language Models with Implicit Stochastic Modulation
arXiv:2610.32101v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) exhibit mode collapse, where their output distribution concentrates on familiar semantic modes. When diversity disappears, repeated sampling becomes semantic repetition rather than discovery, making rare but stronger solutions unlikely to surface and leaving self-evolution and continual learning difficult to sustain. Most remedies intervene only at inference time, shaping sam- ples without making diversity a model capability. We propose PRISM, a training-time framework that internalizes diversity within the model. PRISM combines (i) submodular curation that pairs each prompt with diverse-yet-correct multi-teacher solutions, and (ii) stochastic embedding modulation, which turns special-token perturbations into impl

TraceQuery: learning what to recompute from full-denoising trajectory in diffusion language models
arXiv:2610.33008v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) enable flexible generation through iterative masked denoising, but incur substantial inference cost because token representations are repeatedly recomputed across denoising steps. Existing cache-based methods reduce this cost by reusing intermediate results across denoising steps and recomputing only a subset of positions at each step, chosen either on a fixed schedule or by heuristic signals of change. Our trajectory experiments instead point to decoding trajectory as the more relevant quantity. Cached generation remains accurate when it stays close to the full-denoising trajectory, with errors concentrated around unmask-order deviations and reduced as longer reference prefixes are recovered. This sugg

SLICE-Mem: Salience-Gated Lightweight Information Curation for Efficient LLM Agent Memory
arXiv:2610.33015v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term memory enables large language model (LLM) agents to maintain personalized and temporally coherent interactions, but repeated LLM inference for memory admission, extraction, and organization introduces substantial cost and latency. We present SLICE-Mem, a lightweight memory framework that combines salience-guided admission and predicate-centered information extraction. A compact classifier identifies user turns worth retaining, and a semantic-dependency-based extractor converts admitted turns into concise memory entries. This online pipeline requires no generative LLM calls, while cross-entry reconciliation is deferred to an offline consolidation stage. We evaluate SLICE-Mem on the weekly subset of Memora and LongMemEval-S using 8B a

AdaptTok-Indic: Script-Aware Adaptive Tokenization for Indic Languages
arXiv:2610.33017v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multilingual tokenizers trained on English-dominated corpora often over-segment Indic languages, resulting in longer token sequences and increased tokenization disparity across scripts. We present AdaptTok-Indic, an Indic-specialized extension of adaptive tokenization that combines Unicode-normalized preprocessing with explicit Indic conjunct handling, script-aware routing, and learned byte-level boundary prediction jointly trained with a small Transformer language model. Evaluated on Bengali and Hindi, with additional evaluation on Gujarati, Tamil, and Telugu, AdaptTok-Indic achieves lower token fertility than SentencePiece BPE, an Indic-oriented tokenizer baseline, and an independently implemented MAGNET-style baseline.

CFBrainAug: Modularity-Induced Counterfactual Brain Network Augmentation for Interpretable fMRI-based Autism Diagnosis
arXiv:2610.32184v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning on resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) brain networks is promising for diagnosing Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), but existing methods are prone to overfitting on limited training data, and their post-hoc statistical attribution offers limited clinical interpretability. We propose CFBrainAug, a counterfactual brain network learning framework that unifies data augmentation and counterfactual explanation by learning label-altered brain networks. Unlike conventional label-preserving augmentation, CFBrainAug first retrieves a label-opposite yet topologically similar candidate and then refines it under a module-number constraint. Jointly training on factual and counterfactual networks enriches the trainin

Whispering Wisely: Smart Subset Selection for ASR Fine-Tuning
arXiv:2610.32997v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) models such as OpenAIs Whisper have substantially improved speech recognition quality but remain expensive to fine-tune, especially when large amounts of transcribed audio are available. This makes it challenging for many practitioners to adapt these models to new languages or domains. In this work, we introduce an embedding-based subset selection approach for selecting smaller training sets for ASR fine-tuning. Using Whispers pretrained encoder, we map each audio sample into a fixed-dimensional embedding space and apply a greedy k-center algorithm to select diverse and representative subsets of the training data. We evaluate this approach on both Hebrew and Danish, showing that k-center selection often impr
