Repository-level code generation requires generated code to be compatible not only with the target repository but also with its dependency environment. Existing retrieval-based methods mainly retrieve context from the local repository, leaving external API usage dependent on the model’s pretrained knowledge, which can be insufficient for unseen or version-specific APIs. Moreover, current retrieval strategies largely focus on one-hop evidence and overlook the structural relationships among code components. We propose CrossCoder, a cross-repository code generation framework that explicitly incorporates external libraries into the retrieval context through a unified knowledge graph over repository and library entities. CrossCoder identifies important nodes via planning and semantic retrieval, then selectively expands neighboring nodes to retrieve richer multi-hop contextual evidence for generation. To further evaluate dependency-version compatibility, we introduce VersionExec, an execution-based benchmark derived from BigCodeBench that evaluates generation under different dependency versions. Experimental results on RepoExec, DevEval, and VersionExec demonstrate that CrossCoder consistently improves both functional correctness (up to 6.3% on pass@1) and robustness to dependency-version changes.

Event extraction aims to identify triggers in text, classify them into predefined event types, and recognize associated arguments such as participants and locations. Large language model (LLM)-based generative approaches provide a unified paradigm for joint trigger identification, classification, and argument extraction; however, their computational cost necessitates knowledge distillation (KD) into smaller student models. Existing KD methods operate at the token level, treating each output position independently and thus failing to concentrate the distillation signal on event-relevant spans or to capture the relational structure among event components. We propose EventKD, a two-level distillation framework tailored for event extraction. At the token level, a distributional divergence loss incorporates event-aware span importance weighting to prioritize tokens corresponding to triggers, arguments, and type labels. At the span level, a Relational-Aware (RA) loss preserves pairwise geometric relationships among event-aware spans across Transformer layers. Experiments on four benchmarks (ACE05, MAVEN, GENEVA, and RAMS) demonstrate that EventKD consistently outperforms existing distillation methods on both trigger identification and argument extraction.

Large Language Models (LLMs) lack persistent memory for long-term personalized conversations. Existing graph-based memory systems suffer from information dilution, absent provenance tracking, and uniform retrieval that ignores query context. We introduce MemORAI (Memory Organization and Retrieval via Adaptive Graph Intelligence), a framework that integrates three innovations: selective memory filtering with dual-layer compression to retain user-persona-relevant content, a provenance-enriched multi-relational graph tracking factual origins at the turn level, and query-adaptive subgraph retrieval with Dynamic Weighted PageRank that applies query-conditioned edge weighting. Evaluated on LOCOMO and LongMemEval benchmarks, MemORAI achieves state-of-the-art performance in memory retrieval and personalized response generation, demonstrating that selective storage, enriched representation, and adaptive retrieval are essential for coherent, personalized LLM agents.

Large language models (LLMs) have shown promise for automated unit test generation, but existing evaluations largely rely on standalone settings and a narrow set of programming languages, overestimating real-world readiness. We introduce XRepoTest, a multilingual, repository-level benchmark for unit test generation spanning five underexplored languages: Rust, Go, Julia, PHP, and Ruby. XRepoTest evaluates tests under realistic repository constraints using a containerized execution framework and multiple context augmentation strategies, including file-level, LSP-based, and retrieval-based context. Beyond standard metrics such as test pass rate and coverage, we propose Invocation Rate (IR) to assess whether generated tests meaningfully exercise the intended functionality. Experiments with 14 state-of-the-art LLMs (e.g., Claude 4.5, GPT-5.2, DeepSeek V4-pro, and Qwen families) reveal a substantial gap between standalone and repository-level performance, as well as trade-offs between richer context and test reliability. Overall, XRepoTest provides a challenging and informative benchmark to advance scalable, robust, and multilingual unit test generation in realistic software environments.

Continual Event Detection (CED) aims to identify and classify event triggers in evolving ontologies, where novel event types emerge incrementally. Unlike standard continual learning, CED faces highly imbalanced, long-tail distributions, semantic overlaps between event types, and a prevalence of negative spans, all of which exacerbate catastrophic forgetting. To address these challenges, we propose Mozila, a novel framework that integrates Sharpness-Aware Multi-Objective Optimization (SaMOO) and Language Model Head Preservation (LMHP). SaMOO adapts gradient-based multi-objective optimization with sharpness-aware minimization to balance competing objectives, navigate the Pareto front, and locate flatter minima, enhancing robustness across sequential tasks. Meanwhile, LMHP strengthens representation learning by preserving essential linguistic knowledge from the pretrained language model head through distribution alignment, explored with three alternative strategies. To further address data imbalance, we leverage a generative model to synthesize event trigger representations, mitigating replay buffer limitations. Comprehensive experiments on standard CED benchmarks demonstrate that Mozila consistently improves performance, achieving significant improvements over baseline methods. Ablation studies and error analyses highlight the individual contributions of each component and reveal key challenges in CED, including class imbalance and distinguishing similar event types across tasks. Our framework provides a robust and generalizable solution for continual event detection in dynamic, real-world environments. All resources are publicly available at: Mozila.

Document retrieval plays a crucial role in numerous question-answering systems, yet research has concentrated on the general knowledge domain and resource-rich languages like English. In contrast, it remains largely underexplored in low-resource languages and cross-lingual scenarios within specialized domain knowledge such as legal. We present a novel dataset designed for cross-lingual retrieval between Vietnamese and English, which not only covers the general domain but also extends to the legal field. Additionally, we propose auxiliary loss function and symmetrical training strategy that significantly enhance the performance of state-of-the-art models on these retrieval tasks. Our contributions offer a significant resource and methodology aimed at improving cross-lingual retrieval in both legal and general QA settings, facilitating further advancements in document retrieval research across multiple languages and a broader spectrum of specialized domains.

Few-shot Continual Relation Extraction (FCRE) has emerged as a significant challenge in information extraction, necessitating that relation extraction (RE) systems can sequentially identify new relations with limited labeled samples. While existing studies have demonstrated promising results in FCRE, they often overlook the issue of similar relations, which is a critical factor contributing to catastrophic forgetting. In this work, we propose Sirus–a novel method that utilizes relation descriptions and dynamic clustering on these descriptions to identify similar relations. Leveraging this information, we introduce innovative loss functions specifically designed to enhance the distinction between relations, with a focus on learning to differentiate similar ones. Experimental results show that our approach can effectively mitigate the problem of catastrophic forgetting and outperforms state-of-the-art methods by a large margin. Additionally, we explore the potential of Large Language Model Embeddings (LLMEs) with representation learning and embedding capabilities, demonstrating their promise for advancing FCRE systems.

CodeLLMs are widely used for code generation, yet their ability to handle repository-level dependencies remains underexplored. We introduce RepoExec, a benchmark for evaluating repository-level code generation, focusing on executability, functional correctness, and dependency utilization. Our study evaluates 18 models, revealing that retaining full dependency context yields the best performance, while smaller context sizes can be misleading. Pretrained LLMs excel in correctness but often reimplement dependencies, while instruction-tuned models better utilize dependencies but sometimes introduce unnecessary complexity. We propose an instruction-tuning dataset that improves dependency handling and introduce a new metric, Dependency Invocation Rate (DIR), to measure context utilization. Experiments show that instruction-tuned models improve DIR by over 10%, and multi-round debugging further enhances both correctness and dependency use. RepoExec provides a comprehensive framework to advance CodeLLMs for real-world applications. The dataset and source code are available at https://github.com/FSoft-AI4Code/RepoExec.

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) enhances large language models by grounding their outputs in external knowledge. Recent advances in Graph-based RAG (GRAG) frameworks, such as GraphRAG, LightRAG, and HippoRAG2, integrate knowledge graphs into the retrieval process to improve multi-hop reasoning and semantic coherence. While effective in monolingual settings, these methods remain underexplored in cross-lingual scenarios and face limitations in semantic granularity and entity alignment. In this work, we propose MaGiX, the first GRAG framework tailored for English–Vietnamese cross-lingual question answering. MaGiX constructs a multi-granular cross-lingual knowledge graph using fine-grained attribute descriptions and cross-synonym edges, and incorporates a custom multilingual embedding model trained with contrastive learning for semantic alignment. During retrieval, MaGiX leverages graph-based reasoning and a semantic-aware reranking strategy to enhance cross-lingual relevance. Experiments across five benchmarks show that MaGiX substantially outperforms prior GRAG systems in both retrieval accuracy and generation quality, advancing structured retrieval for multilingual QA.

To address the phenomenon of similar classes, existing methods in few-shot continual relation extraction (FCRE) face two main challenges: non-representative prototypes and representation bias, especially when the number of available samples is limited. In our work, we propose Minion to address these challenges. Firstly, we leverage the General Orthogonal Frame (GOF) structure, based on the concept of Neural Collapse, to create robust class prototypes with clear separation, even between analogous classes. Secondly, we utilize label description representations as global class representatives within the fast-slow contrastive learning paradigm. These representations consistently encapsulate the essential attributes of each relation, acting as global information that helps mitigate overfitting and reduces representation bias caused by the limited local few-shot examples within a class. Extensive experiments on well-known FCRE benchmarks show that our method outperforms state-of-the-art approaches, demonstrating its effectiveness for advancing RE system.

Few-shot Continual Relations Extraction (FCRE) is an emerging and dynamic area of study where models can sequentially integrate knowledge from new relations with limited labeled data while circumventing catastrophic forgetting and preserving prior knowledge from pre-trained backbones. In this work, we introduce a novel method that leverages often-discarded language model heads. By employing these components via a mutual information maximization strategy, our approach helps maintain prior knowledge from the pre-trained backbone and strategically aligns the primary classification head, thereby enhancing model performance. Furthermore, we explore the potential of Large Language Models (LLMs), renowned for their wealth of knowledge, in addressing FCRE challenges. Our comprehensive experimental results underscore the efficacy of the proposed method and offer valuable insights for future work.

La recherche conversationnelle est une tâche qui vise à retrouver des documents à partir de la questioncourante de l’utilisateur ainsi que l’historique complet de la conversation. La plupart des méthodesantérieures sont basées sur une approche multi-étapes reposant sur une reformulation de la question.Cette étape de reformulation est critique, car elle peut conduire à un classement sous-optimal des do-cuments. D’autres approches ont essayé d’ordonner directement les documents, mais s’appuient pourla plupart sur un jeu de données contenant des pseudo-labels. Dans ce travail, nous proposons une tech-nique d’apprentissage à la fois “légère” et innovante pour un modèle contextualisé d’ordonnancementbasé sur SPLADE. En s’appuyant sur les représentations parcimonieuses de SPLADE, nous montronsque notre modèle, lorsqu’il est combiné avec le modèle de ré-ordonnancement T5Mono, obtient desrésultats qui sont compétitifs avec ceux obtenus par les participants des campagnes d’évaluation TRECCAsT 2020 et 2021.
