Sparse-LaViDa: Sparse Multimodal Discrete Diffusion Language Models

Li, Shufan, Gu, Jiuxiang, Liu, Kangning, Lin, Zhe, Wei, Zijun, Grover, Aditya, Kuen, Jason

原文摘要

Masked Discrete Diffusion Models (MDMs) have achieved strong performance across a wide range of multimodal tasks, including image understanding, generation, and editing. However, their inference speed remains suboptimal due to the need to repeatedly process redundant masked tokens at every sampling step. In this work, we propose Sparse-LaViDa, a novel modeling framework that dynamically truncates unnecessary masked tokens at each inference step to accelerate MDM sampling. To preserve generation quality, we introduce specialized register tokens that serve as sparse representations for the truncated tokens. Furthermore, to ensure consistency between training and inference, we design a specialized attention mask that faithfully matches the truncated sampling procedure during training. Built upon the state-of-the-art unified MDM LaViDa-O, Sparse-LaViDa achieves up to a 2xspeedup across diverse tasks including text-to-image generation, image editing, and mathematical reasoning, while maintaining generation quality.

VideoAuto-R1: Video Auto Reasoning via Thinking Once, Answering Twice

Liu, Shuming, Zhuge, Mingchen, Zhao, Changsheng, Chen, Jun, Wu, Lemeng, Liu, Zechun, Zhu, Chenchen, Cai, Zhipeng 等 23 位作者

原文摘要

Chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning has emerged as a powerful tool for multimodal large language models on video understanding tasks. However, its necessity and advantages over direct answering remain underexplored. In this paper, we first demonstrate that for RL-trained video models, direct answering often matches or even surpasses CoT performance, despite CoT producing step-by-step analyses at a higher computational cost. Motivated by this, we propose VideoAuto-R1, a video understanding framework that adopts a reason-when-necessary strategy. During training, our approach follows a Thinking Once, Answering Twice paradigm: the model first generates an initial answer, then performs reasoning, and finally outputs a reviewed answer. Both answers are supervised via verifiable rewards. During inference, the model uses the confidence score of the initial answer to determine whether to proceed with reasoning. Across video QA and grounding benchmarks, VideoAuto-R1 achieves state-of-the-art accuracy with significantly improved efficiency, reducing the average response length by 3.3x, eg., from 149 to just 44 tokens. Moreover, we observe a low rate of thinking-mode activation on perception-oriented tasks, but a higher rate on reasoning-intensive tasks. This suggests that explicit language-based reasoning is generally beneficial but not always necessary.

Conditional Factuality Controlled LLMs with Generalization Certificates via Conformal Sampling

Ye, Kai, Pan, Qingtao, Li, Shuo

原文摘要

Large language models (LLMs) need reliable test-time control of hallucinations. Existing conformal methods for LLMs typically provide only marginal guarantees and rely on a single global threshold, which can under-cover hard prompts, over-cover easy ones, and produce oversized prediction sets. We propose Conditional Factuality Control (CFC), a post-hoc conformal framework that returns set-valued outputs with conditional coverage guarantees. CFC defines a continuous, feature-conditional acceptance threshold through augmented quantile regression on a latent "success" score, and deploys it through a fixed-point threshold rule at inference time. Theoretically, we show that CFC satisfies a conditional coverage guarantee under exchangeability and analyze its efficiency, proving that, under mild assumptions on the score distributions, the conditional rule is strictly more sample-efficient than marginal conformal prediction at the same target coverage. We further derive a PAC-style variant, CFC-PAC, which shrinks the nominal risk level based on a stability bound, yielding a finite-sample certificate that the conditional miscoverage deviates from the target by at most a slack. Empirically, on synthetic data, real-world reasoning and QA benchmarks, and a Flickr8k VLM setting, CFC and CFC-PAC consistently attain near-target coverage across difficulty groups while using smaller prediction sets than CP and non-CP baselines.

PAVAS: Physics-Aware Video-to-Audio Synthesis

Hyun-Bin, Oh, Takida, Yuhta, Uesaka, Toshimitsu, Oh, Tae-Hyun, Mitsufuji, Yuki

原文摘要

Recent advances in Video-to-Audio (V2A) generation have achieved impressive perceptual quality and temporal synchronization, yet most models remain appearance-driven, capturing visual-acoustic correlations without considering the physical factors that shape real-world sounds. We present Physics-Aware Video-to-Audio Synthesis (PAVAS), a method that incorporates physical reasoning into a latent diffusion-based V2A generation through the Physics-Driven Audio Adapter (Phy-Adapter). The adapter receives object-level physical parameters estimated by the Physical Parameter Estimator (PPE), which uses a Vision-Language Model (VLM) to infer the moving-object mass and a segmentation-based dynamic 3D reconstruction module to recover its motion trajectory for velocity computation. These physical cues enable the model to synthesize sounds that reflect underlying physical factors. To assess physical realism, we curate VGG-Impact, a benchmark focusing on object-object interactions, and introduce Audio-Physics Correlation Coefficient (APCC), an evaluation metric that measures consistency between physical and auditory attributes. Comprehensive experiments show that PAVAS produces physically plausible and perceptually coherent audio, outperforming existing V2A models in both quantitative and qualitative evaluations.

Revisiting Multimodal KV Cache Compression: A Frequency-Domain-Guided Outlier-KV-Aware Approach

Yang, Yaoxin, Ye, Peng, Tan, Xudong, Tu, Chongjun, Zhao, Maosen, Hao, Jia, Chen, Tao

原文摘要

Multimodal large language models suffer from substantial inference overhead since multimodal KV Cache grows proportionally with the visual input length. Existing multimodal KV cache compression methods mostly rely on attention score to reduce cache size, which makes them are incompatible with established efficient attention kernels (e.g., FlashAttention) and ignores the contribution of value vectors to the attention output. In this work, we revisit multimodal KV cache compression from the perspective of the KV matrices' distribution. First, we observe that frequency-domain energy of multimodal KV matrices is predominantly concentrated in low-frequency and extract this principal energy via a low-pass filter. Further, we find that removing KV pairs that deviate substantially from this principal energy leads to a pronounced performance drop, which we define as Outlier KVs. Considering Outlier KVs are more likely to encode features critical for inference, we propose FlashCache, a frequency-domain-guided, Outlier-KV-aware KV Cache compression framework. First, we introduce an Outlier KV Recognition Module that models the principal component of multimodal KV matrices in the frequency domain and preferentially retains KV pairs that significantly deviate from it. Furthermore, Dynamic Budget Allocation Module is designed to adaptively determine the per-layer KV cache size to retain more Outlier KVs. Experiments on multiple MLLMs and benchmarks demonstrate that FlashCache outperforms state-of-the-art multimoal KV compression methods, achieving up to 1.69x faster decoding with 80% lower KV memory usage while maintaining task performance.

GraphVLM: Benchmarking Vision Language Models for Multimodal Graph Learning

Liu, Jiajin, Fan, Dongzhe, Ji, Chuanhao, Zha, Daochen, Tan, Qiaoyu

原文摘要

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in aligning and understanding multimodal signals, yet their potential to reason over structured data, where multimodal entities are connected through explicit relational graphs, remains largely underexplored. Unlocking this capability is crucial for real-world applications such as social networks, recommendation systems, and scientific discovery, where multimodal information is inherently structured. To bridge this gap, we present GraphVLM, a systematic benchmark designed to evaluate and harness the capabilities of VLMs for multimodal graph learning (MMGL). GraphVLM investigates three complementary paradigms for integrating VLMs with graph reasoning: (1) VLM-as-Encoder, which enriches graph neural networks through multimodal feature fusion; (2) VLM-as-Aligner, which bridges modalities in latent or linguistic space to facilitate LLM-based structured reasoning; and (3) VLM-as-Predictor, which directly employs VLMs as multimodal backbones for graph learning tasks. Extensive experiments across six datasets from diverse domains demonstrate that VLMs enhance multimodal graph learning via all three roles. Among these paradigms, VLM-as-Predictor achieves the most substantial and consistent performance gains, revealing the untapped potential of vision-language models as a new foundation for multimodal graph learning.

OmniVTG: A Large-Scale Dataset and Training Paradigm for Open-World Video Temporal Grounding

Zheng, Minghang, Yin, Zihao, Yang, Yi, Peng, Yuxin, Liu, Yang

原文摘要

Video Temporal Grounding (VTG), the task of localizing video segments from text queries, struggles in open-world settings due to limited dataset scale and semantic diversity, causing performance gaps between common and rare concepts. To overcome these limitations, we introduce OmniVTG, a new large-scale dataset for open-world VTG, coupled with a Self-Correction Chain-of-Thought (CoT) training paradigm designed to enhance the grounding capabilities of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs). Our OmniVTG is constructed via a novel Semantic Coverage Iterative Expansion pipeline, which first identifies gaps in the vocabulary of existing datasets and collects videos that are highly likely to contain these target concepts. For high-quality annotation, we leverage the insight that modern MLLMs excel at dense captioning more than direct grounding and design a caption-centric data engine to prompt MLLMs to generate dense, timestamped descriptions. Beyond the dataset, we observe that simple supervised finetuning (SFT) is insufficient, as a performance gap between rare and common concepts still persists. We find that MLLMs' video understanding ability significantly surpasses their direct grounding ability. Based on this, we propose a Self-Correction Chain-of-Thought (CoT) training paradigm. We train the MLLM to first predict, then use its understanding capabilities to reflect on and refine its own predictions. This capability is instilled via a three-stage pipeline of SFT, CoT finetuning, and reinforcement learning. Extensive experiments show our approach not only excels at open-world grounding in our OmniVTG dataset but also achieves state-of-the-art zero-shot performance on four existing VTG benchmarks.

TaskIT: Memory-Efficient Fine-Tuning of Multi-LoRA LLMs via Cross-Task Importance Transfer

Fang, Cheng, Zhou, Zimu, Ma, Ke, Guo, Bin

原文摘要

On-device AI systems increasingly adopt a single foundation model equipped with task-specific Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) modules, forming a multi-LoRA LLM that supports multiple tasks.We study how to adapt such a model to a new task on memory-constrainted devices.Although LoRA reduces trainable parameters, fine-tuning a full set of modules remains memory-intensive.To improve efficiency, we apply sparse updating, training a subset of LoRA modules within the memory budget.However, existing sparse updating methods assume all candidate parameters are instantiated and cannot estimate the importance of modules that do not yet exist, while prior memory models designed for sequential networks fail to capture the blockwise parallel structure of Transformers.We propose TaskIT, a framework for memory-efficient fine-tuning via cross-task importance transfer. TaskIT predicts pre-insertion module importance by transferring from previously tuned tasks and employs a block-based memory predictor that captures parallel and sequential dependencies of Transformer blocks. A dynamic programming scheduler then selects module locations, numbers, and ranks to maximize accuracy within the memory budget.Experiments on uni-modal and cross-modal benchmarks show that TaskIT achieves superior accuracy-memory tradeoffs compared with Zero-FT, non-LoRA, and LoRA-based fine-tuning methods.

Seeing Motion Through Polarity for Event-based Action Recognition

Cao, Meiqi, Zhang, Jiachao, Jiang, Xin, Yan, Rui, Yao, Yazhou, Li, Zechao, Shu, Xiangbo

原文摘要

Event-based Action Recognition (EAR) provides a promising pathway for understanding dynamic behaviors under challenging conditions. Recent progress in vision-language models has introduced a cross-modal learning paradigm into EAR, enabling models to associate event streams with textual semantics for enhancing conceptual understanding. However, existing methods typically overlook the intrinsic polarity-driven motion cues that are fundamental to event data, leading to suboptimal spatiotemporal representations. To address this limitation, we propose a POlarity Knowledge Enhanced framework (POKER), which explicitly incorporates event polarity-aware motion knowledge across visual and textual modalities.POKER consists of two synergistic components: Polarity Motion Capturer (PMC) and Polarity Motion Reasoner (PMR). Specifically, PMC decouples positive and negative polarities to capture polarity-sensitive motion cues, while PMR semantically analyzes polarity-induced motion dynamics via large language models. Through the polarity alignment, POKER couples semantic reasoning with visual dynamics, achieving more discriminative representations. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmarks demonstrate that POKER enhances performance across diverse event representations.

Beyond Text: Visual Description Assembly by Probabilistic Model for CLIP-based Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation

Qiu, Xianglin, Wang, Jian, Wang, Xiaolei, Zhang, Zhen, Xiao, Jimin

原文摘要

Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) offers a new paradigm for Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation (WSSS) by generating Class Activation Maps (CAMs) from text-image alignment. Existing methods primarily rely on hand-crafted templates or general attribute descriptions generated by a large language model to construct text prototypes for querying visual features. However, these strategies faces two major limitations: the inherent modality gap in CLIP prevents text prototypes achieving tight alignment with visual features; and their static text prototypes cannot adaptively respond to target instances that exhibit diverse visual attributes. To address these challenges, our key insight is to directly construct instance-specific visual description prototype as query, thereby bypassing the suboptimal static text description optimization. To this end, we propose the Visual Description Assembly (VDA) framework. It employs a probabilistic model to map complex CLIP visual features into a structured latent space. This latent space allows us to explicitly disentangle and aggregate varied visual attributes, and then dynamically assemble them into instance-specific visual prototypes. Furthermore, to enhance the robustness of this prototype, we adaptively incorporate the semantically stable text prototype into it as the final query for generating superior CAMs. Experimental results show our method outperforms existing baselines, achieving state-of-the-art performance on WSSS benchmarks.

Mechanisms of Object Localization in Vision-Language Models

Schaumlöffel, Timothy, Vilas, Martina G., Roig, Gemma

原文摘要

Visually-grounded language models (VLMs) are highly effective in linking visual and textual information, yet they often struggle with basic classification and localization tasks. While classification mechanisms have been studied more extensively, the processes that support object localization remain poorly understood. In this work, we investigate two representative families, LLaVA-1.5 and InternVL-3.5, using a suite of mechanistic interpretability tools, including token ablations, attention knockout, and causal mediation analysis. We find that localization is driven by a containerization mechanism in which object-aligned tokens define the spatial extent of the object, while the semantic arrangement of tokens within those boundaries is largely irrelevant to the predicted box. Only a very small set of attention heads mediates the causal effect for both classification and localization, concentrating in early-mid layers for LLaVA and mid-late layers for InternVL. The two tasks share some early processing but ultimately depend on largely distinct specialized heads. Overall, we provide the first layer- and head-level account of localization in VLMs, revealing narrow computational pathways that can guide future model design and grounding objectives.

VirtueBench: Evaluating Trustworthiness under Uncertainty in Long Video Understanding

Yu, Xueqing, Li, Bohan, Li, Yan, Yang, Zhenheng

原文摘要

Recent Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have made remarkable progress in multimodal understanding tasks, yet their evaluation on long video understanding remains unreliable. Due to limited frame inputs, key frames necessary for answering the question may be missing from the model's input. However, models that truthfully refuse to answer under such uncertainty are marked as incorrect, while those that guess may coincidentally produce the correct answer and thus obtain deceptively higher accuracy, leading to misleading evaluation results and encouraging models to guess rather than respond honestly. To address this issue, we introduce VirtueBench, a benchmark explicitly designed to assess model trustworthiness under uncertainty. VirtueBench constructs multiple frame-sampling levels for each video and provides ground truths that distinguish between answerable and unanswerable cases. Evaluations on 25 open-source and commercial VLMs reveal distinct refusal behaviors across different model families, with refusal accuracy ranging from over 70% in the best models to nearly 0% in the worst. Moreover, most models exhibit a substantial drop in refusal when the prompt does not explicitly require them to do so. These findings highlight the need for developing trustworthy VLMs for multimodal understanding, guided by benchmarks and leaderboards that emphasize reliability and trustworthiness.

VMD-FACT: A New Video Dataset and MLLM-based method for Detecting Realistic AI-Generated Video Misinformation

Zhang, Yongkang, She, Dongyu, Ji, Baiyu, Geng, Qichuan, Zhou, Zhong, Wang, Yan

原文摘要

The rapid evolution of generative AI, including such models as Sora, has intensified the threat of video misinformation. A critical challenge in detecting these AI-generated video misinformation lies in a fundamental disconnect between existing datasets and practical deception tactics. Current datasets often disrupt cross-modal consistency through editing techniques, resulting in unrealistic and easily detectable artifacts. By contrast, generative video misinformation strives for semantic consistency across modalities to remain realism. To address this gap, we introduce RAVM: the first Realistic AI-Generated Video Misinformation Detection Dataset. Unlike existing Video Misinformation Detection (VMD) datasets that are limited to single-source manipulations, RAVM encompasses multiple manipulation sources--Claim, Video, Audio, and Cross-Modal Manipulation--each incorporating diverse manipulation techniques to generate realistic AI-generated video misinformation. To achieve this, we introduce an agent-driven framework for generating realistic video misinformation. Furthermore, we propose an IEEG model that represents multimodal evidence, fact-checking results, and their dependencies as an evidence graph for interpretable detection of AI-generated video misinformation. Extensive experiments on RAVM reveal the vulnerability of existing Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) in detecting AI-generated video misinformation, while the proposed IEEG achieves state-of-the-art performance on RAVM. The dataset is publicly available at: https://gitee.com/VR_NAVE/ravm

SpaceMind: Camera-Guided Modality Fusion for Spatial Reasoning in Vision-Language Models

Zhao, Ruosen, Zhang, Zhikang, Xu, Jialei, Chang, Jiahao, Chen, Dong, Li, Lingyun, Sun, Weijian, Wei, Zizhuang

原文摘要

Large vision-language models (VLMs) show strong multimodal understanding but still struggle with 3D spatial reasoning, such as distance estimation, size comparison, and cross-view consistency. Existing 3D-aware methods either depend on auxiliary 3D information or enhance RGB-only VLMs with geometry encoders through shallow feature fusion. We propose SpaceMind, a multimodal large language model trained on SpaceMind-700K for spatial reasoning from RGB inputs. The model adopts a dual-encoder architecture integrating VGGT as a spatial understanding encoder and InternViT as a 2D visual encoder. The key idea is to treat the camera representation as an active guiding modality rather than passive metadata. Specifically, SpaceMind introduces a lightweight Camera-Guided Modality Fusion module before the language model to replace shallow fusion. It applies camera-conditioned biasing to spatial tokens, assigns query-independent weights reflecting their geometric importance, and uses the camera embedding to gate the fused representation. Empirically, SpaceMind establishes new state-of-the-art results on VSI-Bench, SQA3D and SPBench, surpassing both open and proprietary systems on VSI-Bench and SPBench by large margins and achieving state-of-the-art performance on SQA3D. These results demonstrate that camera-guided modality fusion is an effective and practical inductive bias for equipping VLMs with genuinely spatially grounded intelligence. We will release code and model checkpoints to support future research.

dMLLM-TTS: Self-Verified and Efficient Test-Time Scaling for Diffusion Multi-Modal Large Language Models

Xin, Yi, Luo, Siqi, Xu, Tianxiang, Qin, Qi, Chen, Haoxing, Zhu, Kaiwen, Zhang, Zhiwei, He, Yangfan 等 16 位作者

原文摘要

Diffusion Multi-modal Large Language Models (dMLLMs) have recently emerged as a novel architecture unifying image generation and understanding. However, developing effective and efficient Test-Time Scaling (TTS) methods to unlock their full generative potential remains an underexplored challenge. To address this, we propose dMLLM-TTS, a novel framework operating on two complementary scaling axes: (1) trajectory exploration scaling to enhance the diversity of generated hypotheses, and (2) iterative refinement scaling for stable generation. Conventional TTS approaches typically perform linear search across these two dimensions, incurring substantial computational costs of O(NT) and requiring an external verifier for best-of-N selection. To overcome these limitations, we propose two innovations. First, we design an efficient hierarchical search algorithm with O(N+T) complexity that adaptively expands and prunes sampling trajectories. Second, we introduce a self-verified feedback mechanism that leverages the dMLLMs' intrinsic image understanding capabilities to assess text-image alignment, eliminating the need for external verifier. Extensive experiments on the GenEval benchmark across three representative dMLLMs (e.g., Lumina-DiMOO, MMaDA, Muddit) show that our framework substantially improves generation quality while achieving up to 6x greater efficiency than linear search.

History to Future: Evolving Agent with Experience and Thought for Zero-shot Vision-and-Language Navigation

Dai, Guangzhao, Wang, Shuo, Wang, Zihan, Xie, Guo-Sen, Yang, Yang, Pan, Jinshan, Sun, Qianru, Shu, Xiangbo

原文摘要

Vision-and-Language Navigation in Continuous Environment (VLN-CE) requires an agent to follow language instructions to navigate the target destination. With the advancement of large language models (LLMs), recent efforts have explored adapting them for zero-shot VLN-CE, offering a promising solution in addressing the drawbacks of poor generalization in the training-based paradigm. However, existing LLM-based works primarily perform naive reasoning for decision-making and lack feedback, e.g., reviewing historical errors and predicting future potentials. Consequently, it may suffer from continuous failure for those initial error tasks. In this paper, we rethink LLM-based zero-shot VLN-CE and propose a new paradigm, named EvoNav, to improve the agent's decision-making with future thought and history experience via Future Chain-of-Thought (F-CoT) and History Chain-of-Experience (H-CoE). F-CoT predicts future actions and landmarks as thoughts to assist navigation progress estimation and direction selection, while H-CoE summarizes historical trajectories and scenes as experience to improve navigation decision reliability. Both F-CoT and H-CoE cooperatively evolve the agent's decision-making. Extensive experiments in both the simulator and real-world environments demonstrate the effectiveness of our EvoNav.

STAR-R1: Multi-View Spatial TrAnsformation Reasoning by Reinforcing Multimodal LLMs

Li, Zongzhao, Ma, Zongyang, Li, Mingze, Li, Songyou, Rong, Yu, Xu, Tingyang, Zhang, Ziqi, Zhao, Deli 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) remain far from human-level performance in multi-view spatial reasoning, where models must establish object correspondences across view and infer coherent scene semantics. We analyze this limitation through the Transformation-Driven Visual Reasoning (TVR) task and find that Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) fails to capture cross-view consistency, whereas reinforcement learning (RL) fails to reliably identify key referential objects. To bridge this gap, we introduce multi-View Spatial TrAnsformation Reasoning (STAR-R1), a two-stage framework that combines process-supervised SFT with a referential-aware RL paradigm. STAR-R1 first learns structured spatial reasoning trajectories from high-quality CoTs and then uses fine-grained rewards on referential selection and answer correctness to encourage effective exploration and robust scene interpretation. Despite using only a small amount of high-quality training data, STAR-R1 surpasses state-of-the-art models with far more training data on the multi-view spatial understanding benchmarks TVR, MMSI-Bench, MindCube-Bench, and SPAR-Bench. Our study reveals the overlooked potential of RL in multi-view spatial understanding and points a way toward potentially achieving more human-like spatial reasoning in MLLMs.

BridgeEQA: Virtual Embodied Agents for Real Bridge Inspections

Varghese, Subin, Gao, Joshua, Rahman, Asad Ur, Hoskere, Vedhus

原文摘要

Deploying embodied agents that can answer questions about their surroundings in realistic real-world settings remains difficult, partly due to the scarcity of benchmarks for episodic memory Embodied Question Answering (EQA). Inspired by the challenges of infrastructure inspections, we propose Inspection EQA as a compelling problem class for advancing episodic memory EQA, as it demands multi-scale reasoning and long-range spatial understanding, while offering standardized evaluation, professional inspection reports as grounding, and egocentric imagery. We introduce BridgeEQA, a benchmark of 2,200 open-vocabulary question-answer pairs (in the style of OpenEQA) grounded in professional inspection reports across 200 real-world bridge scenes with 47.93 images on average per scene. We further propose a new EQA metric Image Citation Relevance to evaluate the ability of a model to cite relevant images. Evaluations of state-of-the-art vision-language models reveal substantial performance gaps. To address this, we propose Embodied Memory Visual Reasoning (EMVR), which formulates the inspection EQA task as a Markov decision process. EMVR shows strong performance over the baselines.

Rounded or Streamlined Head? Bridging Concept Bottleneck Models and Attribute-Described Object Parts

Liu, Yang, Zhang, Jiajin, Hu, Yaojun, Hao, Bingguang, Cao, Xin, Xia, Yingda, Tu, Danyang, Gu, Shi 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

A faithful decision-making process requires models to ground human-understandable concepts both spatially (where they appear in the image) and causally (how they influence the prediction). Recent advances in Vision-Language Models (VLMs) enable concept-level alignment and have inspired Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs), which explain predictions by mapping image representations to human-understandable concepts, allowing users to trace decisions through explicit semantic reasoning. However, existing CBMs suffer from two key inconsistencies. First, semantic inconsistency: VLMs often fail to localize fine-grained part-attribute concepts, producing noisy or incomplete masks. Second, object inconsistency: object-agnostic concepts such as "head: streamlined front profile" may describe multiple categories (e.g., fish or human); without enforcing object identity, non-targeted regions can introduce spurious evidence that corrupts the bottleneck representation. To address these challenges, we propose a new Object-Aware Concept Bottleneck Model (OA-CBM) that jointly enforces semantic- and object-level consistency. Specifically, (1) we redefine concepts as part-attribute pairs to enhance VLM robustness at the semantic level, and (2) introduce class-agnostic object clustering to suppress irrelevant visual evidence. We further annotate two grounding datasets with part-attribute descriptions and conduct extensive experiments. Results demonstrate that OA-CBM produces more faithful and robust explanations while maintaining competitive predictive performance.

MuKV: Multi-Grained KV Cache Compression for Long Streaming Video Question-Answering

Xiao, Junbin, Chen, Jiajun, Sun, Tianxiang, Yang, Xun, Yao, Angela

原文摘要

Long streaming video QA remains challenging due to growing visual tokens and limited reasoning length of large language models (LLMs). KV-caching stores the Key-Value (KV) of the historical tokens via LLM prefill and enables more efficient streaming QA. However, existing methods cache every one or two frames, causing redundant memory usage and losing fine-grained spatial details within frame or temporal contexts across frames. This paper proposes MuKV, a method that features a multi-grained KV cache compression module and a semi-hierarchical retrieval approach to improve both efficiency and accuracy for long streaming VideoQA. For the offline KV cache, MuKV extracts visual representations at patch-, frame-, and segment-levels. The multiple levels of granularity preserve both local cues and global temporal context, while maintaining efficiency with a dual signal token compression mechanism guided by self-attention and frequency. For online QA, MuKV designs a semi-hierarchical retrieval method to retrieve relevant KV caches for answer generation. Experiments on long-streaming VideoQA benchmarks show that MuKV significantly improves answer accuracy, without sacrificing memory and online QA efficiency. Moreover, our compression mechanism alone brings consistent benefits across answer accuracy, memory, and QA efficiency over baselines, showcasing highly effective contribution.

CapNav: Benchmarking Vision Language Models on Capability-conditioned Indoor Navigation

Su, Xia, Chen, Ruiqi, Liu, Benlin, Ma, Jingwei, Di, Zonglin, Krishna, Ranjay, Froehlich, Jon

原文摘要

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have shown remarkable progress in Vision-Language Navigation (VLN), offering new possibilities for navigation decision-making that could benefit both robotic platforms and human users. However, real-world navigation is inherently conditioned by the agent's mobility constraints. For example, a sweeping robot cannot traverse stairs, while a quadruped can. We introduce Capability-Conditioned Navigation (CapNav), a benchmark designed to evaluate how well VLMs can navigate complex indoor spaces given an agent's specific physical and operational capabilities. CapNav defines five representative human and robot agents, each described with physical dimensions, mobility capabilities, and environmental interaction abilities. CapNav provides 45 real-world indoor scenes, 473 navigation tasks, and 2365 QA pairs to test if VLMs can traverse indoor environments based on agent capabilities. We evaluate 13 modern VLMs and find that current VLM's navigation performance drops sharply as mobility constraints tighten, and that even state-of-the-art models struggle with obstacle types that require reasoning on spatial dimensions. We conclude by discussing the implications for capability-aware navigation and the opportunities for advancing embodied spatial reasoning in future VLMs. The benchmark is available at https://makeabilitylab.github.io/CapNav/

Gastric-X: A Multimodal Multi-Phase Benchmark Dataset for Advancing Vision-Language Models in Gastric Cancer Analysis

Li, Yuanzhe, Chen, Hao, Yin, Rui, Ba, Juyan, Zhang, Yu, Lu, Sheng

原文摘要

Recent vision-language models (VLMs) have shown strong generalization and multimodal reasoning abilities in natural domains. However, their application to medical diagnosis remains limited by the lack of comprehensive and structured datasets that capture real clinical workflows. To advance the development of VLMs for clinical applications, particularly in gastric cancer, we introduce Gastric-X, a large-scale multimodal benchmark for gastric cancer analysis providing 1.7K cases. Each case in Gastric-X includes paired resting and dynamic CT scans, endoscopic image, a set of structured biochemical indicators, expert-authored diagnostic notes, and bounding box annotations of tumor regions, reflecting realistic clinical conditions. We systematically examine the capability of recent VLMs on five core tasks: Visual Question Answering (VQA), report generation, cross-modal retrieval, disease classification, and lesion localization. These tasks simulate critical stages of clinical workflow, from visual understanding and reasoning to multimodal decision support. Through this evaluation, we aim not only to assess model performance but also to probe the nature of VLM understanding: Can current VLMs meaningfully correlate biochemical signals with spatial tumor features and textual reports? We envision Gastric-X as a step toward aligning machine intelligence with the cognitive and evidential reasoning processes of physicians, and as a resource to inspire the development of next-generation medical VLMs.

GaussianDWM: 3D Gaussian Driving World Model for Unified Scene Understanding and Multi-Modal Generation

Deng, Tianchen, Chen, Xuefeng, Chen, Yi, Chen, Qu, Xu, Yuyao, Yang, Lijin, Xu, Le, Zhang, Yu 等 11 位作者

原文摘要

Driving World Models (DWMs) have been developing rapidly with the advances of generative models. However, existing DWMs lack 3D scene understanding capabilities and can only generate content conditioned on input data, without the ability to interpret or reason about the driving environment. Moreover, current approaches represent 3D spatial information with point cloud or BEV features do not accurately align textual information with the underlying 3D scene. To address these limitations, we propose a novel unified DWM framework based on 3D Gaussian scene representation, which enables both 3D scene understanding and multi-modal scene generation, while also enabling contextual enrichment for understanding and generation tasks. Our approach directly aligns textual information with the 3D scene by embedding rich linguistic features into each Gaussian primitive, thereby achieving early modality alignment. In addition, we design a novel task-aware language-guided sampling strategy that removes redundant 3D Gaussians and injects accurate and compact 3D tokens into LLM. Furthermore, we design a dual-condition multi-modal generation model, where the information captured by our vision-language model is leveraged as a high-level language condition in combination with a low-level image condition, jointly guiding the multi-modal generation process. We conduct comprehensive studies on the nuScenes, and NuInteract datasets to validate the effectiveness of our framework. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance. We will release the code publicly on GitHub.

A Provable Energy-Guided Test-Time Defense Boosting Adversarial Robustness of Large Vision-Language Models

Mirza, Mujtaba Hussain, D'Orazio, Antonio, Melamed, Odelia, Masi, Iacopo

原文摘要

Despite the rapid progress in multimodal models and Large Visual-Language Models (LVLM), they remain highly susceptible to adversarial perturbations, raising serious concerns about their reliability in real-world use. While adversarial training has become the leading paradigm for building models that are robust to adversarial attacks, Test-Time Transformations (TTT) have emerged as a promising strategy to boost robustness at inference.In light of this, we propose Energy-Guided Test-Time Transformation (ET3), a lightweight, training-free defense that enhances the robustness by minimizing the energy of the input samples.Our method is grounded in a theory that proves our transformation succeeds in classification under reasonable assumptions. We present extensive experiments demonstrating that ET3 provides a strong defense for classifiers, zero-shot classification with CLIP, and also for boosting the robustness of LVLMs in tasks such as Image Captioning and Visual Question Answering. Code is available at github.com/OmnAI-Lab/Energy-Guided-Test-Time-Defense .

CodeMMR: Bridging Natural Language, Code, and Image for Unified Retrieval

Geng, Jiahui, Li, Qing, Cai, Fengyu, Karray, Fakhri

原文摘要

Code search, framed as information retrieval (IR), underpins modern software engineering and increasingly powers retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), improving code discovery, reuse, and the reliability of LLM-based coding.Yet existing code IR models remain largely text-centric and often overlook the visual and structural aspects inherent in programming artifacts such as web interfaces, data visualizations, SVGs, schematic diagrams, and UML.To bridge this gap, we introduce MMCoIR, the first comprehensive benchmark for evaluating multimodal code IR across five visual domains, and show through extensive evaluation the task is challenging.Therefore, we then propose CodeMMR, a unified retrieval model that jointly embeds natural language, code, and images into a shared semantic space through instruction-based multimodal alignment.CodeMMR achieves strong generalization across modalities and languages, outperforming competitive baselines (e.g., UniIR, GME, VLM2Vec) by an average of 10 points on nDCG@10.Moreover, integrating CodeMMR into RAG enhances code generation fidelity and visual grounding on unseen code generation tasks, underscoring the potential of multimodal retrieval as a core enabler for next-generation intelligent programming systems.

Act2See: Emergent Active Visual Perception for Video Reasoning

Ma, Martin Q., Qu, Yuxiao, Agrawal, Aditya, Guo, Willis, Liang, Paul Pu, Salakhutdinov, Ruslan, Morency, Louis-Philippe

原文摘要

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) typically rely on static initial frames for video reasoning, restricting their ability to incorporate essential dynamic information as the reasoning process evolves. Existing methods that augment Chain-of-Thought (CoT) with additional frame information often exhibit suboptimal CoT quality and lack the crucial ability to synthesize visual information for hypothetical or counterfactual scenarios. We introduce Act-to-See (Act2See), a novel framework that enables active visual perception by empowering VLMs to actively interleave video frames within text CoTs. Act2See is developed via Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) on a high-quality dataset of reasoning traces generated by a frontier VLM. These traces integrate active calls to either retrieve existing frames or generate new ones, and are rigorously verified against human-annotated CoTs to ensure quality. This approach cultivates an emergent capability: at inference time, the model actively determines when to search for or synthesize the necessary visual evidence. Act2See establishes new state-of-the-art results on challenging benchmarks, including VideoEspresso and ViTIB, and outperforms comparable or larger models on Video-MME, EgoNormia, and VCR-Bench, demonstrating an advancement in enabling VLMs with active visual perception for video reasoning.

Vision-Language Attribute Disentanglement and Reinforcement for Lifelong Person Re-Identification

Xu, Kunlun, Cheng, Haotong, Li, Jiangmeng, Zou, Xu, Zhou, Jiahuan

原文摘要

Lifelong person re-identification (LReID) aims to learn from varying domains to obtain a unified person retrieval model. Existing LReID approaches typically focus on learning from scratch or a visual classification-pretrained model, while the Vision-Language Model (VLM) has shown generalizable knowledge in a variety of tasks. Although existing methods can be directly adapted to the VLM, since they only consider global-aware learning, the fine-grained attribute knowledge is underleveraged, leading to limited acquisition and anti-forgetting capacity. To address this problem, we introduce a novel VLM-driven LReID approach named Vision-Language Attribute Disentanglement and Reinforcement (VLADR). Our key idea is to explicitly model the universally shared human attributes to improve inter-domain knowledge transfer, thereby effectively utilizing historical knowledge to reinforce new knowledge learning and alleviate forgetting. Specifically, VLADR includes a Multi-grain Text Attribute Disentanglement mechanism that mines the global and diverse local text attributes of an image. Then, an Inter-domain Cross-modal Attribute Reinforcement scheme is developed, which introduces cross-modal attribute alignment to guide visual attribute extraction and adopts inter-domain attribute alignment to achieve fine-grained knowledge transfer. Experimental results demonstrate that our VLADR outperforms the state-of-the-art methods by 1.9%-2.2% and 2.1%-2.5% on anti-forgetting and generalization capacity. Our source code is available at https://github.com/zhoujiahuan1991/CVPR2026-VLADR

Hierarchical Process Reward Models are Symbolic Vision Learners

Zhang, Shan, Chen, Aotian, Zou, Kai, Gu, Jindong, Xue, Yuan, van den Hengel, Anton

原文摘要

Symbolic computer vision represents diagrams through explicit logical rules and structured representations, enabling interpretable understanding in machine vision. This requires fundamentally different learning paradigms from pixel-based visual models. Symbolic visual learners parse diagrams into geometric primitives--points, lines, and shapes--whereas pixel-based learners operate on textures and colors. We propose a novel self-supervised symbolic auto-encoder, where the encoder parses diagrams into structured primitives and their relations, and the decoder compiles them back into executable code that reproduces the original diagrams. Central to this architecture is SymHPR (Symbolic Hierarchical Process Reward Modeling), which applies hierarchical step-level rewards to enforce point-on-line, line-on-shape, and shape-on-relation consistency. Since reinforcement learning collapses under vanilla GRPO, our proposed stabilized strategies balance exploration and exploitation. Built upon the symbolic learner, we design two pipelines: one replaces the MLLM's visual encoder with the symbolic encoder; the other feeds interpretable symbolic parses directly to the LLM to guide reasoning. Evaluations across reconstruction, perception, and reasoning tasks demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach: achieving a 98.2% reduction in MSE for geometric diagram reconstruction, surpassing GPT-4o by 0.6% with a 7B model on chart reconstruction, and improving by +13% on the MathGlance perception benchmark, and by +3% on MathVerse and GeoQA reasoning benchmarks.

Seeing Beyond 8bits: Subjective and Objective Quality Assessment of HDR-UGC Videos

Saini, Shreshth, Chen, Bowen, Wang, Yilin, Birkbeck, Neil, Adsumilli, Balu, Bovik, Alan C.

原文摘要

High Dynamic Range (HDR) user-generated (UGC) videos are rapidly proliferating across social platforms, yet most perceptual video quality assessment (VQA) systems remain tailored to Standard Dynamic Range (SDR). HDR's higher bit depth, wide color gamut, and elevated luminance range expose distortions such as near-black crushing, highlight clipping, banding, and exposure flicker that amplify UGC artifacts and challenge SDR models. To catalyze progress, we curate HDR-UGC-44K, a large-scale subjective dataset of ~44K videos from 6.5K sources with >1.5M crowd ratings, spanning diverse scenes, capture conditions, and compression settings. We further introduce HDR-Q, the first Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) for HDR-UGC VQA. We propose (i) a novel HDR-aware vision encoder to produce HDR-sensitive embeddings, and (ii) HDR-Aware Policy Optimization (HAPO), an RL finetuning framework that anchors reasoning to HDR cues. HAPO augments GRPO via an HDR-SDR contrastive KL that encourages token reliance on HDR inputs and a gaussian weighted regression reward for fine-grained MOS calibration. Across HDR-UGC-44K and public HDR-VQA benchmarks, HDR-Q delivers state-of-the-art performance. Project page: https://shreshthsaini.github.io/Beynod8Bits

Zero-Shot Depth Completion with Vision-Language Model

Yan, Zhiqiang, Wu, Yuan, Lee, Gim Hee

原文摘要

Vision language models (VLMs) have achieved remarkable success in semantic understanding tasks under language guidance, yet their potential for geometric perception remains largely underexplored. This paper introduces the first VLM-based depth completion framework. With almost no architectural modifications, we propose a sparse depth injection mechanism that extends the capability of VLM toward 3D perception through three key aspects: visual tokenization, textual prompt, and textual supervision. At the visual input side, sparse depth is tokenized to provide absolute scale and accurate geometric cues, alleviating the scale and camera ambiguities of RGB-only inputs. At the textual input side, a binary mask derived from sparse depth serves as a prompt, instructing the model where to complete and where to preserve. At the supervision side, the model is fine-tuned using text labels generated from sparse depth, requiring no ground-truth depth. Benefiting from the strong semantic priors and cross-modal expressiveness of VLM, our framework achieves superior zero-shot performance across diverse sensors, sparsity levels, and scenes.
