Advanced large language models (LLMs) with long context windows can substantially reduce input truncation in document-level machine translation (DocMT). However, direct Doc2Doc translation remains prone to n-gram repetition and progressive quality degradation. A common remedy is to segment the document into finer-grained chunks. Nonetheless, conventional rule-based chunking approaches fail to handle the length distribution mismatch between training and inference. To address this, we introduce Fixed-Range Chunking (FRC), utilizing dynamic programming to partition documents into chunks within a predefined length interval. By consistently applying FRC during training and inference, the input documents of any length are mapped to the same length distribution, substantially reducing train-test length mismatch. Centered on FRC, we propose a lightweight dual-boundary matching algorithm for chunk alignment, alongside four distinct training strategies. Experimental results show that FRC-based fine-tuning substantially improves 7B LLMs over direct Doc2Doc fine-tuning and outperforms existing DocMT methods on IWSLT2017. We further construct GlobVDoc, a 10-language test set independent of mainstream DocMT training sources, and show that FRC improves out-of-distribution document translation.

Generative vision-language models (VLMs) can edit and synthesize images, yet their ability to adapt visual assets across markets remains under-evaluated.We study cross-market image transcreation via movie posters, where localization must preserve a movie’s identity while matching market-specific design preferences and multilingual typography.We introduce the Movie Poster Transcreation Benchmark (MPTc-Bench), a cross-market benchmark of 582 aligned poster examples spanning 34 target markets, and define two task variants: Surface (text-centric localization) and Deep (preference-level style adaptation).We propose a two-stage planner-editor pipeline in which an VLM planner specifies executable edits and an image editor renders them.We evaluate in a triplet setup (source, human target-market poster, model output) using information-preservation checks, LLM-as-a-judge ratings for aesthetics and target-market fit, and objective similarity signals.Across multiple planners and editors, experiments reveal substantial gaps between model outputs and human target-market posters, highlighting open challenges for market-aware generation.MPTc-Bench enables controlled, quantitative progress on cross-market image editing beyond understanding-centric benchmarks.
