-
Aesthetic Generation Engine: Based on multimodal alignment technology, it maps natural language descriptions into structured design specs (Design Spec). Through joint vision-language training, it improves the generation quality of UI component layouts, color schemes, and interaction logic, achieving SOTA performance in the self-developed KAT aesthetic Benchmark.
-
Ultra-long Context Modeling: Adopts sparse attention mechanisms and dynamic caching strategies to maintain efficient inference within a 256K context window. Through context compression and selective memory technology, it expands maximum output to 80K to support large codebase analysis and long document generation.
-
Code-specific Training Paradigm: Conducts instruction fine-tuning and reinforcement learning on software engineering benchmarks such as SWE-Bench. Combined with RLHF training based on code execution feedback, the model gains precise syntax understanding, bug localization, and repair capabilities, with a Verified score of 73.4%, on par with top closed-source models.
-
Efficient Inference Optimization: Supports streaming decoding and speculative sampling. At the API layer, it implements context cache reuse (free cache writes, 0.42 yuan per million tokens for reads). Through sparse activation in the MoE architecture, it reduces inference costs, balancing high performance and commercial deployment economics.
