Recently, vision transformer-based methods have achieved breakthrough progress in image super-resolution (SR) tasks, owing to their powerful capability in capturing global features. However, compared to convolution operations, self-attention mechanisms are weaker in capturing local structures and high-frequency components of images, and their high computational complexity makes them unsuitable for mobile devices with limited computing power. To address these issues, we incorporate the structural characteristics of vision transformers and propose a spatial dual feature aggregation network (SDFAN) for lightweight image SR. Based on naive convolutions and variance attention (VA), we present an efficient scheme for local pattern aggregation (LPA) to enhance the perception of local details. Meanwhile, we propose a multi-scale dilated attention (MSDA) to flexibly model non-local and multi-scale features while maintaining linear computational complexity. The integration of LPA and MSDA enables the model to simultaneously and effectively capture local and non-local dependencies. Furthermore, we design a spatial channel mixer (SCM) to fully exploit the synergistic interaction between spatial and channel information. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed SDFAN exhibits superior performance compared to existing state-of-the-art SR models while maintaining lower parameter counts and computational costs. Our source code and models are available at https://github.com/stella-von/SDFAN.

The issue-resolving task, where a model generates patches to fix real-world bugs, has emerged as a key benchmark for evaluating the capabilities of large language models (LLMs). While SWE-bench has become the dominant benchmark in this domain, it suffers from several limitations: it has not been updated since its release, is restricted to only 12 repositories, and relies heavily on manual effort for constructing test instances and setting up executable environments, significantly limiting its scalability. We present SWE-bench-Live, a live-updatable benchmark designed to address these limitations. SWE-bench-Live currently includes 1,890 tasks derived from real GitHub issues created since 2024, spanning 223 repositories. Each task is accompanied by a dedicated Docker image to ensure reproducible execution. Additionally, we introduce an automated curation pipeline that streamlines the entire process from instance creation to environment setup, removing manual bottlenecks and enabling scalability and continuous updates. We evaluate a range of state-of-the-art models and agent frameworks on SWE-bench-Live, offering detailed empirical insights into their real-world bug-fixing capabilities. By providing a fresh, diverse, and executable benchmark grounded in live repository activity, SWE-bench-Live supports reliable, large-scale assessment of code LLMs and code agents in realistic development settings.

Image super-resolution (SR) has significantly advanced through the adoption of Transformer architectures. However, conventional techniques aimed at enlarging the self-attention window to capture broader contexts come with inherent drawbacks, especially the significantly increased computational demands. Moreover, the feature perception within a fixed-size window of existing models restricts the effective receptive field (ERF) and the intermediate feature diversity. We demonstrate that a flexible integration of attention across diverse spatial extents can yield significant performance enhancements. In line with this insight, we introduce Multi-Range Attention Transformer (MAT) for SR tasks. MAT leverages the computational advantages inherent in dilation operation, in conjunction with self-attention mechanism, to facilitate both multi-range attention (MA) and sparse multi-range attention (SMA), enabling efficient capture of both regional and sparse global features. Combined with local feature extraction, MAT adeptly capture dependencies across various spatial ranges, improving the diversity and efficacy of its feature representations. We also introduce the MSConvStar module, which augments the model’s ability for multi-range representation learning. Comprehensive experiments show that our MAT exhibits superior performance to existing state-of-the-art SR models with remarkable efficiency ($\sim 3.3\times $faster than SRFormer-light). The codes are available athttps://github.com/stella-von/MAT.

Transformer-based deep models for single image super-resolution (SISR) have greatly improved the performance of lightweight SISR tasks in recent years. However, they often suffer from heavy computational burden and slow inference due to the complex calculation of multi-head self-attention (MSA), seriously hindering their practical application and deployment. In this work, we present an efficient SR model to mitigate the dilemma between model efficiency and SR performance, which is dubbed Entropy Attention and Receptive Field Augmentation network (EARFA), and composed of a novel entropy attention (EA) and a shifting large kernel attention (SLKA). From the perspective of information theory, EA increases the entropy of intermediate features conditioned on a Gaussian distribution, providing more informative input for subsequent reasoning. On the other hand, SLKA extends the receptive field of SR models with the assistance of channel shifting, which also favors to boost the diversity of hierarchical features. Since the implementation of EA and SLKA does not involve complex computations (such as extensive matrix multiplications), the proposed method can achieve faster nonlinear inference than Transformer-based SR models while maintaining better SR performance. Extensive experiments show that the proposed model can significantly reduce the delay of model inference while achieving the SR performance comparable with other advanced models.

Large Language Model (LLM) agents have been increasingly adopted as simulation tools to model humans in social science and role-playing applications. However, one fundamental question remains: can LLM agents really simulate human behavior? In this paper, we focus on one critical and elemental behavior in human interactions, trust, and investigate whether LLM agents can simulate human trust behavior. We first find that LLM agents generally exhibit trust behavior, referred to as agent trust, under the framework of Trust Games, which are widely recognized in behavioral economics. Then, we discover that GPT-4 agents manifest high behavioral alignment with humans in terms of trust behavior, indicating the feasibility of simulating human trust behavior with LLM agents. In addition, we probe the biases of agent trust and differences in agent trust towards other LLM agents and humans. We also explore the intrinsic properties of agent trust under conditions including external manipulations and advanced reasoning strategies. Our study provides new insights into the behaviors of LLM agents and the fundamental analogy between LLMs and humans beyond value alignment. We further illustrate broader implications of our discoveries for applications where trust is paramount.
