Assistants from 2011 answered and waited, and agents from 2023 did a task and stopped. In September 2026 Meta's Muse showed an agent for one person, with accounts, devices, memory and a conversation that lasts, closed, in a vendor's cloud, in one country. Such an agent is expected to act on a person's accounts and devices, remember them across weeks, speak first when it is worth it, and answer for what it did. It is a kind of software, not a model, and until now had no open counterpart. This report defines the personal agent in five questions and three horizons. It reads how Muse is built from Meta's public record and a copy of its production prompt, each statement marked by its source. It then presents nanoMuse, the open-source counterpart under the GPL-3.0, one agent on every device a person owns, with hands on the phone's screen and the computer's. They share one conversation over a relay anyone can run; every action goes through a Sentinel, memory is files the person can read, and the model is their choice. Its size and cost are given as estimates. What is open, memory with provenance, an evaluation suite for the hands and an open model for them, is set out as a roadmap.

Mixture-of-experts (MoE) inference on consumer hardware is bounded by weight memory: a 35B-class model is 19.5GB at 4-bit, and sparsity shrinks the compute per token, not the bytes that must be held. Naive offloading to SSD does not help on its own, because layer N+1's experts must be chosen before layer N's output exists, so the reads cannot start early enough to hide behind compute. We present Edge0, a streaming MoE inference engine that closes the gap with a prerouter: a per-layer head predicts the next layer's routing one token ahead, and the prediction is consumed as the routing itself, so the staged expert set equals the routed set and nothing is dropped. An unmerged recovery LoRA, trained on the student path, pays back the quality lost to int4 quantization and routing replacement. On a single 24GB machine, Edge0 serves a 35B MoE at 20tok/s inside 3GiB of peak active memory, within a few points of its fp16 teacher on average across five public benchmarks. An 8B tier runs on the same framework, and the framework, checkpoints, and adapters are open source.

We present Kandinsky 6.0 Video, a family of foundation diffusion models for synchronized text-to-audio-video generation, comprising Kandinsky 6.0 Video Lite (3B parameters) and Kandinsky 6.0 Video Pro (29B parameters). Both models generate 5-second video clips with synchronized 44 kHz audio, including lip-sync, in text-to-audio-video (T2AV) and image-to-audio-video (I2AV) modes; a built-in super-resolution model raises the output resolution to Full-HD (1920times1080). Building on the video generation capabilities of Kandinsky 5.0, Kandinsky 6.0 Video employs a dual-stream CrossDiT architecture that connects a pretrained video stream and a newly trained audio stream through bidirectional cross-attention for temporal and semantic alignment. Our continuous pretraining strategy first trains the audio stream from scratch on large-scale audio corpora and then trains both streams jointly on paired audio-video data while preserving unimodal fidelity; pretraining is followed by supervised fine-tuning, reinforcement-learning-based post-training, and distillation. In side-by-side human evaluation, Kandinsky 6.0 Video Pro clearly outperforms its predecessor, Kandinsky 5.0 Video Pro, and remains competitive with leading audio-video generation models, particularly in speech quality. To accelerate open research and deployment in multimedia generation, we release the code, model checkpoints, and diffusers integration under the MIT license.

A multi-agent framework using large language models for stock trading simulates real-world trading firms, improving performance metrics like cumulative returns and Sharpe ratio.

Vision-language-action models benefit from the understanding and reasoning capabilities of pretrained vision-language models, but action-only supervision provides limited grounding in world dynamics. Conversely, world-action models inherit spatiotemporal priors from video generation models, yet remain limited in semantic understanding and reasoning under distribution shifts. We introduce UniWAM, a unified architecture that integrates a physical reasoner, a world generator, and an action predictor to jointly learn semantic understanding of the physical world, visual generation, and action prediction. To ensure the quality of the training data, we developed a rigorous data cleaning and annotation pipeline for both human egocentric data and robot data. To adapt the vision-language component to embodied tasks while preserving its inherited language capabilities, we represent low-level actions in natural language and introduce a pre-training recipe that assigns complementary supervision from visual question answering (VQA) data, human egocentric data, and robot demonstrations to the appropriate model components. During post-training, future visual noise augmentation reduces reliance on precise future predictions, while history-conditioned flow matching uses encoded action history to initialize action generation. Together, these designs significantly reduce denoising steps while maintaining performance. UniWAM achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance across multiple evaluations, including in-distribution performance, robustness, generalization, instruction following, and long-horizon task execution. Furthermore, we uncover a log-linear scaling law of unified human-robot co-training, demonstrating the effectiveness of large-scale pre-training on a mixture of human and robot data.

Visual backbones have evolved from Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) with local aggregation to Vision Transformers (ViTs) with global interactions, State-Space Models (SSMs) with input-dependent state transitions, and Test-Time Training (TTT) layers that adapt an inner learner while processing an image. Across this progression, visual computation has become increasingly adaptive to each input, yet the rules governing that adaptation remain largely prescribed by the trained backbone. We introduce VisionHOPE, the first generic visual backbone formulated as a self-modifying learning system, in which what the model remembers and how it learns co-evolve within an image. Building on the self-referential construction of Nested Learning (NL), VisionHOPE realizes this co-evolution through five coupled memories that store content, generate key and value representations, and govern learning rate and retention. These memories evolve jointly as visual context accumulates along each scan. However, directly applying the unconstrained self-referential update to a visual backbone leads to instability. We therefore derive a stability-matched step-size control scheme that combines a soft cap on self-referential injection with a spectral clamp on the retained memory transition, and prove that the resulting memory dynamics are non-expansive along each scan. For two-dimensional feature maps, we adapt NL's chunk formulation by aligning chunks with image rows and columns across four directional scans. The proposed VisionHOPE achieves competitive results on ImageNet-1K, COCO, and ADE20K, establishing self-modifying learning systems as a practical foundation for general-purpose visual backbones. The code is available at https://github.com/PSRben/VisionHOPE.

Recent advances in world models have enabled increasingly realistic visual synthesis. However, these generated environments remain largely silent. Bringing sound to world models poses three core challenges: real-time generation to keep pace with interactive video streams, interactive control to respond to mid-stream sound instructions, and spatially aligned stereo to reflect scene geometry and camera motion. To address these demands, we introduce WorldSonus, an interactive video-to-audio framework designed for real-time spatial sound synthesis in world models. For real-time generation, WorldSonus employs a streaming causal autoregressive diffusion architecture that synthesizes audio chunks at a low real-time factor (RTF) of 0.41. For interactive control, we incorporate an audio-centric captioning pipeline with chunk-indexed prompt scheduling, enabling dynamic manipulation of sound events during generation. For spatial alignment, we leverage high-quality stereo supervision curated from diverse stereo and ambisonic data. Extensive experiments demonstrate that while tailored for world models, WorldSonus generalizes effectively to open-domain video-to-audio benchmarks, matching or outperforming state-of-the-art bidirectional models in both acoustic quality and spatial alignment.

Autoregressive video generation requires denoising the current frames while writing their key-value representations as context for future predictions. However, these two roles typically share parameters, and we find that their gradients exhibit distinct patterns and systematic negative alignment, hindering the joint optimization of visual quality and temporal consistency. We introduce Self Gradient Forcing Plus (SGF+), which assigns separate parameters to context writing and denoising while preserving their interaction through causal attention. Both roles are jointly optimized using the original generation objective without auxiliary losses, with context writing supervised through its contribution to future predictions. This simple change improves visual quality and long-horizon consistency over the evaluated baselines in both framewise and chunkwise generation, without additional video training data or a longer training horizon. Trained on only 5s rollouts, SGF+ supports continuous generation for up to 24 hours without long-video fine-tuning. These results highlight role-specific parameterization as an effective design principle for high-quality autoregressive video generation and native long-horizon extrapolation.

Real-time robot control demands enough visual history to infer motion and task progress, but processing that history can delay action. We present Long-WAM, a model-system framework for scaling the context of causal world-action models under real-time control constraints. Our central finding is that access to history is not the same as using it: longer histories pay off far more when the video foundation is pretrained autoregressively (AR). We first learn causal prediction from robot and egocentric videos without action labels, then preserve this history-to-future structure during world-action adaptation. On RoboCasa GR-1, increasing context from 0.0 to 19.2 seconds raises success from 63.3% to 78.7%, whereas a bidirectionally pretrained initialization shows no net gain; robot-domain AR pretraining further raises peak success on GR-1 and LIBERO-Long. Long-WAM also achieves the best results among compared methods on LIBERO-Long, RoboTwin 2.0, and DOMINO. Streaming observation encoding, asynchronous execution, and hardware-specific acceleration enable deployment on RTX 5090, DGX Spark, and Jetson AGX Thor without dropping future prediction; on RTX 5090, each action chunk, including future-video latent prediction, takes 107.4 ms. Real-time deployment on Unitree G1 and YAM supports dynamic and long-horizon manipulation, including 95% success on dynamic cup stacking, where Pi0.5 and Fast-WAM succeed in none of 20 trials. As a memory-informed executor, Long-WAM also complements higher-level planning in composite tasks.

As large language models advance, AI agents are moving beyond isolated, domain-specific tasks toward long-horizon, cross-domain workflows. This transition exposes two challenges: increasing harness complexity makes manual design difficult to scale, while tighter coupling to specific domains limits the generality of a single harness. The central question thus shifts from how to engineer a stronger harness for one domain to how to autonomously construct specialized harnesses, improve them through experience, and orchestrate them across domains. We introduce Raven, The Harness of Harnesses, an open-source multi-agent ecosystem that automatically constructs and evolves modular harnesses for specific models and domains, treating each executable model--harness pair as a composable unit of intelligence. To support an All-Domain Collaboration Network, its Host Agent decomposes goals, matches subtasks to specialized agents, coordinates execution dependencies, and integrates results, while a host archive and EverOS preserve experience across tasks and Skill Forge makes that experience available as reusable procedures. Our theory establishes sufficient conditions for such composition to expand reliable task coverage beyond that of the available individual agents under a shared resource budget. On complex and long-horizon tasks, Raven significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art agent systems, pushing the frontier of composable agentic intelligence.

Recent game design agents have made substantial progress in generating playable games. However, program correctness does not ensure an enjoyable experience for players. We present Recursive Game Creator, an experience-oriented harness to advance agentic game development from rough game prototypes into entertaining games. Recursive Game Creator organizes recursive development around four components: Designer, Builder, Player, and Reviewer. The Designer translates user instructions and Reviewer's feedback into detailed plans. The Builder turns these plans into candidate games. The coding-native Player creates and executes reusable policies through programmatic interfaces to efficiently collect diverse gameplay trajectories, mitigating evaluation bias caused by slow GUI-based collection. The Reviewer uses carefully designed trajectory-based metrics to induce player preferences, integrating with visual evidence and explicit textual preferences to evaluate games against game-specific criteria. Finally, the Reviewer accepts the better version and provides improvement reviews for the next round, closing the recursive loop. Our method achieves state-of-the-art overall performance of 77.89 on GameCraft-Bench. On GameASG-Bench, it achieves a strict task success rate of 53.2%, a 34.1% improvement over the same-model baseline, and the highest mean runtime-check pass rate at 93.4% among compared methods. A user study shows longer playtime and higher ratings. Code is coming soon.

An LLM agent's capability is largely magnified by its harness, namely the prompts, control flow, tooling, memory, and context management surrounding the frozen backbone model. Recent methods increasingly automate this process by iteratively proposing and selecting component-wise edits of an agent harness, practically establishing a form of recursive self-improvement (RSI) at the agent-system level. However, such recursive evolution may overfit by memorizing the training tasks, showing large in-distribution gains that shrink or even vanish on out-of-distribution benchmarks. We introduce Regularized Recursive Self-Improvement of Agent Harnesses (RRSI), which incorporates the principles of regularizations into harness self-improvement by constraining the evolution candidate proposal and selection. The proposer operates with a temporally annealed budget, limiting how many edits a candidate can bundle, and it encourages unexplored trajectories based on evolution history. The selector is equipped with a critic and a pruner: the critic screens benchmark-specific proposals, while the pruner, removes changes that are too small, too expensive, or no longer useful. Together these constraints favor reusable agent mechanisms over benchmark-specific ones or even noises. Across eight benchmarks spanning coding, agentic workspace and engineering design tasks, RRSI gains up to 14.1 points on the split it evolves against and up to 4.7 points on the five out-of-distribution benchmarks, while producing a harness that runs on 30% fewer policy tokens than the unregularized evolution. Code is available at https://github.com/google-research/rrsi and project page is https://regularized-rsi.com/.

Symbolic models make melody, harmony, rhythm, and form explicit but typically stop before a finished recording; audio models produce complete songs while leaving composition implicit. We introduce YuE2, which unifies symbolic and audio music generation at frontier quality through symbolic planning. A single AR-NAR Mixture-of-Transformers (MoT) first writes a readable score specifying melody and harmony, expands it into semantic music tokens, and realizes it as full-song audio. In comparisons using the same checkpoint, experts prefer symbolic planning for overall quality and musicality, with 49.3% of overall preferences versus 34.6% without planning. Experts also favor the unified model over a separate language model and diffusion Transformer. On WildSongBench, YuE2 scores 6.73 on SongBench Global Avg, exceeding all evaluated public baselines. Selecting from eight candidates (best-of-8), YuE2 reaches 6.96, the highest observed mean among all evaluated systems. Expert listening further establishes its competitiveness with proprietary song generators, favoring best-of-8 over Suno v4.5 and yielding nearly balanced preferences against Suno v5. To learn this generation process from recordings without aligned scores, we introduce MERT2 and SheetSage2 to supply semantic and symbolic supervision. MERT2 sets a new state of the art in music representation learning, surpassing previous best results on 14 of 15 MARBLE metrics; SheetSage2 leads 12 of 15 benchmark-metric pairs in our lead-sheet transcription comparison. The same checkpoint follows score edits while largely preserving unedited musical content and generates zero-shot covers without cover-specific training. Its readable score also enables agentic music editing, with external language models translating user feedback into revisions of the composition.

We introduce Context Language Models (CLMs), language models that natively manage their own context. We implement this by treating the context as a file and allowing the model to make unrestricted updates to this file. This allows the model to learn what is most important to maintain in context, and naturally extends to multi-agent systems where multiple agent contexts coexist as files. Building CLMs zero-shot with existing models outperforms SOTA context management strategies across a variety of tasks: 11.4% higher accuracy with 21.5% fewer FLOPs on BrowseComp-Plus, 5% higher scores with 59% fewer FLOPs on 12-hour EdgeBench, and 65% greater improvement with the same compute on a 24-hour multi-repository agent-swarm task. Moreover, by shifting context management from external harness control to intrinsic model behavior, CLMs naturally enable both in-context and parametric learning of context-management strategies. We show that CLMs can be steered with natural-language instructions evolved through a standard skill-optimization loop, improving held-out accuracy by up to 35.9 points on a context-management task while reducing compute. We also introduce an online reinforcement learning method for CLMs, improving Qwen3.5-9B performance on BrowseComp-Plus by 47.6% while using 12% fewer FLOPs. Finally, we co-design Suffix Cache Reuse for CLM serving, further reducing server-side compute by 35% relative to standard SGLang at matched performance.

We introduce 4DCodeBench, a benchmark for 4D inverse graphics through code generation, in which agents reconstruct dynamic scenes from video as executable graphics programs. To accomplish this, agents must translate visual observations into compact representations of scene structure and dynamics, by implementing abstractions such as physical simulations to reproduce complex behavior. To evaluate this capability, we curate a set of real-world videos and construct synthetic scenes spanning diverse physical phenomena, including deformation, fluid flow, and fracture. We perform extensive benchmarking of frontier models, finding that strong static reconstruction capabilities do not yet translate into reliable reconstruction of complex dynamics. 4DCodeBench provides a testbed for tracking progress toward agents that can interpret the dynamics of the world through code. Our benchmark is available at https://github.com/4DCodeBench/4DCodeBench

Natively training joint video-audio generation models at higher resolutions empowers them to learn richer visual details and sharper motion dynamics. However, full attention incurs quadratic cost and, as resolution increases, spreads attention over increasingly redundant tokens, diluting learning signals for informative content and disrupting pretrained priors. Existing sparse attention methods either target training-free acceleration or overlook the unique structure of joint video-audio data, where cross-modal interactions are inherently concentrated around sound-producing regions. To address this, we propose Prism, a dynamic sparse attention framework for natively training joint video-audio generation models at 2K. In particular, Prism organizes the token sequence into spatiotemporal macro-zones, enabling the attention structure to adapt to local content. For each zone, it estimates local information structure via video feature variance along the channel and feature norms from the audio-to-video cross-attention, jointly capturing how visual content varies directionally and how strongly audio influences each visual region. Based on these signals, Prism dynamically assigns a tailored block shape to each zone, applying finer partitioning along axes of rapid visual content variation and strong audio-visual coupling. This encourages tokens within each block to remain semantically coherent, allowing block-level features to capture both visual content and joint video-audio interaction patterns. Prism further adopts a hybrid block selection strategy to dynamically determine per-query sparsity. Experiments show that Prism achieves 2.5times training speedup compared to full attention, while surpassing it in generation quality.

NeoHorse-1 uses agentic post-training with intelligent routing, structured feedback loops, and curriculum-based distillation to improve model capabilities across agent benchmarks.

We introduce LoopVL to study whether Loop Transformers can be effectively extended to vision- language models. LoopVL combines Module-Loop and Model-Loop computation to iteratively update a unified vision-language state through shared modules. We train LoopVL from scratch through language pre-training, multimodal training, and post-training. LoopVL outperforms a range of similarly sized and larger non-recurrent models on multimodal understanding and visual reasoning benchmarks. We also observe Visual Aha Moments in LoopVL, characterized by pronounced shifts in visual attention across loops. LoopVL provides practical evidence for recurrent vision-language modeling and offers an intuitive perspective on how shared parameters can support deeper multimodal computation over continuously evolving visual-language states.

Continual skill evolution enables LLM agents to accumulate and refine reusable procedural knowledge from interaction experience without updating model parameters. Its effectiveness depends on determining not only what to change, but also why a change is justified and when it should become persistent guidance. However, existing experience-driven methods can lose the behavioral evidence and task contexts supporting edits. Moreover, a global validation outcome provides an incomplete judgment of its constituent changes: locally supported corrections may be discarded with a rejected revision, while evidence may require further experience to inform useful updates. To this end, we introduce EVISKILL, an evidence-driven framework that organizes execution observations into Replayable Evidence Cards and synthesizes edits with explicit links to their supporting contexts. Targeted replay verifies these edits through re-execution and provides feedback for correction. Across epochs, EVISKILL preserves evidence and provisionally retains supported edits for further refinement, while global validation governs their incorporation into the final skill. Experiments on three interactive benchmarks across six LLM backbones demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach.

Streaming video LLMs must retain evidence before its relevance to future tasks is known and respond when sufficient evidence becomes available. The challenge is to form reusable factual memory without compromising real-time perception. We introduce OneStreamer, which jointly learns query-independent evidence recording and task response through a shared proactive generation process. Its Proactive Hierarchical Caption Memory (PHCM) produces time-grounded local-detail captions and summaries of completed events. Streaming caption targets supervise the interpretation of observed video prefixes during training. At inference, model-generated records complement a recent visual window, providing reusable factual context without revisiting historical visual features. Proactive State Transition Learning (PSTL) reduces the dominance of repeated waiting states by preserving supervision at all output anchors and selecting representative state-change and state-persistence tokens. We further develop a streaming data synthesis pipeline that aligns output content and timing with available evidence. Combining the resulting streaming captions and QA with cleaned open-source data yields OneStreamer-1M, a broad-coverage streaming video interaction dataset with over one million records spanning diverse tasks. Our 4B model achieves the best results among the compared methods across all eight evaluated streaming video understanding benchmarks. Ablations show that retaining generated captions improves historical QA without degrading real-time perception. PSTL also outperforms dense state supervision while supervising only 27.5% of annotated state tokens. Together, these results support proactive generation as a shared learning interface connecting perception, memory formation, and timely response in streaming video interaction.

World modeling enables intelligence to anticipate consequences, guide interventions, and learn from interaction. Yet predictive models remain domain-specific: can a common learning principle support world modeling across radically different systems? We introduce JEPA-Anything, a domain-agnostic framework based on orthogonal predictive factorization (OPF). Extending joint-embedding predictive architectures, OPF decomposes latent targets into complementary factors, learns them through dedicated pathways, and recombines them within a shared predictive design. We evaluate JEPA-Anything across seven domains: vision, biology, clinical trajectories, control, molecular dynamics, physical fields, and weather. Experiments span representation learning, intervention prediction, out-of-distribution generalization, and long-horizon dynamics, including 10 matched dynamics tasks, forecasting of over 1,000 clinical events, and 100-step molecular rollouts across four systems. Against matched JEPA baselines, JEPA-Anything improves reported metrics on all 10 dynamics tasks and reduces single-intervention prediction error on Interventional Pong by 34.8%. It achieves the lowest one-step and 100-step molecular errors among compared methods in all four systems. Beyond prediction, a factor-nominated biological intervention receives experimental support in cell co-cultures, patient-derived organoids, tumor fragments, and mice; latent orbital modes recover the Keplerian scaling exponent with a fitted slope of -1.4991. These results support a common factorized predictive principle across heterogeneous worlds, connecting world modeling with intervention and experimentally grounded scientific discovery.

Iterative self-distillation enables LLM agents to learn from successive deployments, offering a path toward recursive self-improvement (RSI). Yet our experiments with existing methods reveal a collapse in deployment performance across cycles, while task performance with privileged information (PI) also declines. We address this collapse by prioritizing informative interaction steps for distillation and preserving PI-conditioned behavior as the student becomes the next teacher. We introduce Retentive and Selective Augmentation for Iterative Self-Distillation (ReSAIL), a plug-in augmentation for iterative PI-based self-distillation. ReSAIL selects interaction steps where PI most strongly changes the teacher's predictions and balances the resulting distillation losses across trajectories. It also regularizes the student's PI-conditioned output distributions toward those of the frozen teacher at selected and unselected steps to preserve PI-conditioned behavior for supervision in the next cycle. On ALFWorld and TextCraft, ReSAIL sustains substantial gains across model scales over three cycles, with an average absolute gain of 22.5% in final-cycle success rates when added to self-distillation baselines. Sensitivity-guided selection of offline data also improves action prediction accuracy for multimodal GUI agents on AITZ. These findings provide the first evidence that a more robust learning mechanism can effectively mitigate performance collapse in iterative agent self-distillation over deployment trajectories.

Dense visual text requires image generators to reproduce long strings across multiple regions with correct placement and legibility. As short-string rendering improves, evaluation must test sustained performance across more demanding scenes. We introduce UltraText Bench, a bilingual benchmark for prompt-only generation of dense visual text. It contains 432 prompts spanning 24 real-world scene categories and three difficulty levels, split equally between English and Chinese. Each human-reviewed prompt supplies exact strings for four to twelve text regions, paired with structured references for their content, placement, and visual attributes. We use the Q-Judger vision-language model to assess each image against the complete reference, reporting text fidelity, text clarity, spatial quality, and scene quality. Across 24 model configurations, these dimensions reveal different strengths: Z-Image-Turbo gains 3.81 clarity points over Z-Image-Base while losing 14.76 fidelity points under the reported settings. Performance also varies with workload; Qwen-Image-2512's English composite falls from 86.50 at L1 to 42.86 at L3. Ten participants took part in human evaluation of the automatic scores. Repository: https://github.com/LINs-lab/UltraText_Bench.

Unified Multimodal Models (UMMs) often rely on separate visual representations for understanding and generation, increasing visual context length and complicating integration with established vision-language pretraining pipelines. Recent advances in pixel-space modeling offer an encoder-free alternative, but extending this paradigm from images to videos is non-trivial: video understanding and generation adopt different temporal representations, leaving the design of a unified visual interface an open question. We present PixelUMM, an encoder-free model for unified image and video understanding and generation directly in pixel space. PixelUMM represents images as spatial patches and videos as spatiotemporal tubelets, connecting raw pixels to a shared multimodal backbone through single-layer linear projections. Its Mixture-of-Transformers architecture combines shared attention with task-specific parameters and extends clean-pixel prediction to video generation, jointly supporting autoregressive text prediction and pixel-space flow matching. Experiments show that PixelUMM achieves competitive performance across image and video understanding and generation tasks. We further conduct empirical studies of key design choices, including decoder design and spatial-temporal patch size, providing insights for future pixel-space unified multimodal models.

A self-distillation framework converts implicit 3D knowledge from video diffusion models into an explicit 3D Gaussian Splatting representation, enabling 3D scene generation from text or images.

We propose Tetris3D, a generative framework for single-image 3D scene reconstruction that recovers objects which are physically and geometrically coherent as a scene. Existing methods often generate objects independently or couple them implicitly, providing limited guidance for ensuring fine-grained spatial compatibility between neighboring objects that interact with one another. To address this, we explicitly condition the generation of each object on the geometry of surrounding objects and their physical relationships, guiding its shape and pose to remain geometrically and physically plausible within the scene. Moreover, we introduce ComOb, a physics simulation-based dataset of 1.2M scenes featuring physical interactions across diverse object categories, with per-object meshes and pairwise physical relation annotations. Comprehensive experiments on synthetic and realworld scenes show that Tetris3D recovers coherent object shapes and poses even when interacting regions are occluded, and achieves state-of-the-art performance in both generation quality and physical stability.
