Model Detail
ByteDance Seed: Seed 1.6 Flash
—ByteDance Seed: Seed 1.6 Flash is a multimodal model released by Bytedance-seed. And supports text+image+video->text inputs.
ByteDance Seed: Seed 1.6 Flash is priced at $0.075/M input tokens and $0.3/M output tokens. Operationally the model offers a 262K-token context window, which matters when sizing it for prompt-heavy or latency-sensitive workloads. At this input rate the model sits in the commodity tier and is suitable for high-volume workloads where per-call cost dominates the decision.
ByteDance Seed: Seed 1.6 Flash is published on Hugging Face but our pipeline has not yet captured architecture, license, or parameter-count metadata for this entry. The data is refreshed daily, so these fields typically populate within 24–48 hours of release.
ByteDance Seed: Seed 1.6 Flash is best fit for mixed text-and-image reasoning tasks such as document understanding, high-volume batch jobs where per-call cost dominates the budget, and long-context tasks such as full-codebase analysis or book-length summarization (262K tokens). Treat this as a starting matrix rather than a benchmark verdict — the right deployment usually depends on the specific evaluation suite that mirrors your workload.
Reflective Prompt Optimization of a Deep-Research Agent: A Topic-Disjoint, Multi-Seed Protocol for Measuring Transferable Gains and Prompt-Level Overfitting
arXiv:2610.12601v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Prompt optimization is an attractive alternative to reinforcement learning for adapting language-model agents, since it is cheap and produces human-readable artifacts. On factual tasks, however, it carries a failure mode that scalar-reward reinforcemen
SeedER: Seed-Expand-Retrieve for Efficient Knowledge Graph Retrieval
arXiv:2605.23753v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Knowledge graphs (KGs) offer a rich representation for relational knowledge, but their irregular structure makes retrieval challenging: ego-graph expansion grows rapidly, and dense embedding methods struggle with multi-hop compositional queries. Se
You Only Align Once: Propagating Cooperative Behaviors in Multi-Agent Systems through Seed Agents
arXiv:2605.27586v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Ensuring aligned agent behaviors in distributed open multi-agent systems remains challenging, especially as populations grow and unaligned agents may exist. We show that a single aligned agent can propagate cooperative behaviors to unmodified
Invent a Dataset: Measuring dataset generation abilities with zero seed
arXiv:2610.01674v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Building datasets remains one of the most manual and brittle parts of AI development. In this technical report, we focus on the most extreme but also most prevalent setting real world practitioners face: a zero data regime. Here, practitioners don't ha
Security-Enhanced Seed-Based Weight Quantization for Large Language Models
arXiv:2609.38477v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) incur substantial storage, memory-bandwidth and energy costs, motivating compact weight representations. Existing seed-based compression methods reconstruct weights from compact pseudo-random representations but do not ex
Fairness Beyond a Single Run: Training-Seed Variability in Speech LLM Adaptation
arXiv:2609.38976v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Demographic fairness gaps in automatic speech recognition are almost always reported from a single training run. We fine-tune the Q-former projector and LoRA adapters of a speech LLM at five audio compression factors and six random seeds, holding the e
