Alibaba open-sources Logics-Parsing-V3 for cross-page parsing of long documents

Alibaba has open-sourced the 0.8B-parameter Logics-Parsing-V3, extending document parsing from single pages to cross-page long documents by carrying structural state between pages; its long-document tests cover inputs of up to 50 pages.

Alibaba has open-sourced Logics-Parsing-V3 for structured long-document parsing, extending Logics-Parsing-v2 from single-page recognition to cross-page processing. The model reads pages sequentially through non-overlapping sliding windows, using --window_size 2 by default for multi-page inputs and always using 1 for single-page inputs. Each window combines the current page with a compact structural state passed from the preceding window to reconstruct heading hierarchies, merge cross-page elements, and connect visual content with text. It also supports complex layouts, scientific formulas, and chemical notation. According to the project, the 0.8B-parameter model achieved the highest Overall score among the models compared on MPDocBench (MPDocBench-Parse) and led on Truncated Text Edit and Heading TEDS.

The project also created MPDocBench-Long by concatenating complete source documents with similar types and resolutions. It contains 5 length ranges with 50 sequences in each range and a maximum length of 50 pages. According to its description, under the 1M inference setting, Logics-Parsing-V3 maintained more consistent parsing quality than Unlimited-OCR as document length increased. inference_v3.py accepts images, PDFs, and directories of page images, and produces markdown.md, hierarchy.md, raw_output.dsl, and result.json. The model is available from Hugging Face or ModelScope. Inference efficiency was tested on 420 MPDocBench documents totaling 3,135 pages, using NVIDIA H100 GPUs with batch size 1 for every model.

Fireworks launches Ember-1 alongside custom training support

Fireworks has made Ember-1, a specialized model based on Kimi K3, available alongside custom training support. The company says it uses 40% fewer tokens while maintaining Kimi K3 quality for coding and multi-turn Agent workloads.

Fireworks released Ember-1, trained from Kimi K3, and made it available with custom training capabilities on the Fireworks Training platform. The company says Ember-1 uses 40% fewer tokens while maintaining Kimi K3 quality, reducing the cost of coding and multi-turn Agent workloads. Its team ran more than 50 training experiments and over 200 evaluations on Fireworks Serverless Training, and developed new training algorithms to shorten reasoning while preserving accuracy.

According to Fireworks, a reasoning model can spend more than 90% of its generated tokens on internal reasoning, while multi-turn interactions repeatedly reload earlier content, causing context to grow roughly quadratically with the number of turns. Fireworks says Kimi K3’s reasoning was shortened by 35–50% without reducing accuracy across 7 benchmarks and production traffic from 2 customers. Bedside Bench contains 500 clinical cases across 10 specialized categories. The cost analysis used public Kimi K3 API prices of $3/M tokens for uncached input, $0.30/M for cached input, and $15/M for output. The company says Ember-1 was on or near the quality-cost Pareto frontier for benchmarks with more than 50 samples and outperformed K3-low.

Black Forest Labs releases open-weight robotics model FLUX 3 Action

Black Forest Labs released the open-weight robotics model FLUX 3 Action. Its single-step 7B version posted a 38.3% ± 0.38 success rate on RoboLab, and the company says it is 1.34x–2.28x faster than Pi0.5.

Black Forest Labs released the open-weight robotics model FLUX 3 Action and published a report covering its training and fine-tuning. The company says the single-step 7B checkpoint achieved a 38.3% ± 0.38 success rate on RoboLab, above Cosmos 3 Nano’s 36.8%, while the guidance-distilled checkpoint reached 42.2% ± 0.36. On workstation and datacenter GPUs, the former processed each second of robot motion 1.34x–2.28x faster than Pi0.5 running in BF16, while predicting a 2.13-second motion horizon versus 1.0 second for Pi0.5. When run in FP8, the base and guidance-distilled checkpoints were 1.52x–3.95x faster than FP8 Cosmos 3 Nano across consumer, workstation, and datacenter GPUs.

According to the company, F3A uses multimodal Self-Flow pretraining to keep its backbone at less than half the size of Cosmos 3 Nano. It also uses distillation to remove the guidance pass and reduce the number of sampling steps to one while retaining joint video and action prediction. On a B200 GPU, the guidance-distilled version in FP8 recorded a 42.24% success rate and a 0.048 real-time factor. Cosmos 3 Nano recorded 36.8% and 0.150, π0.5 in BF16 recorded 28% and 0.032, and the step-distilled version recorded 37.92% and 0.015. Running alone on an H200 GPU priced at $3 per hour, F3A required 21.08 milliseconds per second of robot motion, with each success costing $0.09 and taking less than two minutes on average, though it could not solve every individual task. Combined with GPT 6 Astra as a hybrid policy, the system completed 90% of episodes at a cost of $8.77 and eight minutes per success. The company says this was 29% cheaper and 40% faster than the best alternative configuration.

NVIDIA open-sources speaker diarization model Nemotron 3 Diarization

NVIDIA released Nemotron 3 Diarization, an open-weight speaker diarization model with 100 million parameters that handles up to eight speakers. The company says its 14.72% DER places it first on Diarization-Bench.

NVIDIA introduced the open-weight Nemotron 3 Diarization to mark speaker activity in live and recorded conversations. According to the company, the 100-million-parameter model supports up to eight channels and ranks first on VoiceArena Diarization-Bench with a 14.72% DER. It supports overlapping speech, chunked processing, and configurable streaming latency. Channels are assigned permanently according to when each voice first appears, allowing anonymous labels to remain consistent across audio chunks without solving the speaker permutation again for every chunk. The channels do not represent real-world identities; downstream applications can associate them with specific people through meeting metadata, user profiles, or active speaker verification models.

The model accepts 16 kHz single-channel audio, generates a Mel-spectrogram with a 10 ms frame step, stacks the features by a factor of eight into 80 ms frames, and feeds them to a 31-layer Transformer encoder with RoPE. Its default output is a [T, 8] floating-point tensor in which each value represents the probability that the corresponding speaker is active at that time, and two channels can be active in the same frame. Training used public and licensed speech, including real-world multispeaker conversations licensed from David AI and simulated mixtures spanning 21 languages generated from its audio. NVIDIA says adding the David AI data reduced compound DER from 11.19% to 10.42% at both the offline-style and ultra-low-latency operating points, an absolute decrease of 0.77 percentage points. The model outputs only speaker activity and timestamps, so producing speaker-attributed text requires combining it with ASR.

Anthropic says Claude discovered a new enzyme system in bacteriophages

技术与洞察

Anthropic announced that Claude discovered a new enzyme system, ART, after roughly 950 Agents searched DNA data for 21 hours using 210 million tokens. Its function remains unknown, and the findings have been released as a pre-print.

Anthropic announced that Claude discovered a previously uncharacterized enzyme system, array-associated reverse transcriptases (ART), in one of the first projects launched after the company formed its life sciences research team in spring 2026. According to the company, the researchers only supplied the initial prompt to search for new RT examples and handled the laboratory work. Roughly 950 Claude Agents used 210 million tokens to search a DNA database for 21 hours, independently analyzing different RT families and candidates. One Agent noticed repeated DNA sequences next to an unusual-looking reverse transcriptase (RT) gene. Following additional analysis and experiments, the team identified it as ART found in bacteriophages and released a pre-print.

The RT underlying ART comes from a jumbo phage, and the enzyme itself had already been identified in previous research. Anthropic said Claude appears to be the first to connect it with two defining features: a neighboring array of non-coding DNA sequences and an accessory protein of unknown function. ART’s primary function remains undetermined. According to the company, this combination of features has previously appeared in only a handful of other systems, all of which are programmable and can perform operations such as cutting, copying, or pasting DNA. Anthropic’s Bay Area laboratory conducts only BSL-1 and BSL-2 research, does not handle pathogens capable of infecting humans, and has human scientists perform all laboratory work.

Anthropic details a Claude-assisted performance optimization method, with over 3,000 changes merged in two weeks

技术与洞察

Anthropic said it used Claude to make the core experience of claude.ai and its desktop app about 3x faster in two weeks while merging more than 3,000 changes. According to the company, the work caused no customer-facing incident or rollback.

Anthropic used Claude during a two-week sprint to optimize claude.ai and the Claude desktop app, making the core user experience about 3x faster. According to the company, more than 3,000 changes were merged without a customer-facing incident or rollback. The team focused on four journeys covering 95% of user activity. At the 75th percentile, the time from a fresh claude.ai load to a typeable page fell from 3.1 seconds to 0.55 seconds, starting a new Claude Code session fell from 0.8 seconds to 0.3 seconds, and loading a Claude Cowork cloud session fell from 2.6 seconds to 0.73 seconds. Anthropic estimates that these changes eliminate tens of thousands of user-hours of waiting each day.

The work used the beta version of Claude Tag, whose internal research model was, according to Anthropic, roughly comparable to Opus 5.5. Claude analyzed data through the Datadog MCP server, identified four journeys—launching the app, starting a new conversation, loading an existing conversation, and sending a message—and divided them into 13 measurements. The team standardized measurement from the user interaction through rendering of the result while separating client and server work. It initially listed about 20 projects and had met 12 of the 13 targets by day three. Changes included embedding a static composer in HTML, precompiling a V8 code cache, prefetching sessions on hover, and reducing sidebar re-renders by 90%. The team also created benchmarks using instruction counts, React commits, DOM mutations, and other metrics; only metrics shown to correspond to wall-clock latency were retained and added to CI.

Anthropic employee discusses Opus 5.5 writing adjustments: balancing model understanding with human readability

Anthropic employee Jackson Kernion, who worked on Claude fine-tuning, said the released Opus 5.5 is the company’s first model specifically improved to address sentence clarity and information density, with a better balance between model understanding and human readability.

Anthropic employee Jackson Kernion, who worked on Claude fine-tuning, said the released Opus 5.5 received targeted adjustments to its writing and is Anthropic’s first model designed specifically to address sentence clarity and excessive information density. The Claude account said the version expresses itself more naturally, presents the most important information first, follows user-defined writing rules more effectively, and makes extended conversations easier to read. Kernion explained that as models receive more training in mathematics, code, and explaining technical issues to other large language models, the training process must also reward concise explanations that humans can understand in order to maintain balance. In his assessment, Opus 5.5 achieves a better balance between model understanding and human readability, although its writing still has room for further improvement.

Anthropic details the use of Claude in responding to the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo

行业动态

Anthropic said Claude is being used in the response to the Bundibugyo ebolavirus outbreak in the DRC, cutting WHO AFRO’s sitrep preparation time from a full day to under one hour while also supporting vaccine data organization and viral genomic analysis.

Anthropic disclosed that its Beneficial Deployments and Applied AI teams are working with partners convened by CEPI, including WHO AFRO and INRB, to use Claude for data processing, modeling, research evidence review, and genomic analysis in the Bundibugyo ebolavirus outbreak that has continued in the DRC since May. According to Anthropic, the outbreak has nearly 8,000 confirmed cases, and close to half of those patients have died. Community health workers record symptoms, contact histories, recoveries, and deaths through door-to-door visits, while health facilities aggregate the information through channels including WhatsApp. A Claude skill developed by WHO AFRO staff extracts case and laboratory figures from each health zone’s PowerPoint, checks them against the previous day’s report, flags changes in trends, and produces summaries. This has reduced sitrep preparation time from a full day to under one hour.

According to Anthropic, WHO AFRO’s data team also uses Claude to run multiple disease models simultaneously and produce forecasts that logistics staff can use when deciding where to locate treatment centers. No vaccine is currently approved for BDBV, while Ervebo is approved for the Zaire strain. After BDBV emerged, CEPI solicited projects involving vaccine candidates and related scientific work, and it built a dashboard with Claude to track tasks required to advance vaccine development. Claude organizes multifactor data, while experts remain responsible for selecting cohorts of serological samples and assessing Ervebo’s potential cross-reactivity against BDBV. The INRB laboratory produced nearly all BDBV genomes sequenced from DRC cases in the current outbreak. According to Anthropic, Claude Science can use natural-language instructions to assemble genomes and build viral phylogenetic trees, while also supporting infection tracing, outbreak-size estimation, and the identification of new variants.
