An Agentic AI Workflow for Liver Lesion Segmentation and Structured Radiology Reporting

Fatma Ahmed Mansour, Rahatara Ferdousi, Zyad Medhat Mahmoud Ashor, Manar Fathy Elshenawy, Ibrahim Shehaby, Salma Elmongi, S. Ahmed

原文摘要

Despite advances in automated liver lesion segmentation, a gap remains between image-derived predictions and clinically interpretable radiology reports. Bridging this gap requires quantitative measurements that are both reproducible and traceable. We present an evidence-grounded agentic AI framework that connects liver and lesion segmentation with deterministic quantification and structured reporting. TotalSegmentator-based nnU-Net models delineate the liver, Couinaud segments, and lesions, while computational tools extract volumes, dimensions, counts, and anatomical locations. A large language model (LLM) organizes these measurements into a predefined reporting schema, with numerical consistency checks against source measurements. On 51 LiTS cases, the segmentation stage achieved a liver Dice score of 0.947, lesion sensitivity of 75.6%, and positive predictive value of 68.9%. Exploratory screening of 25,494 MERLIN reports identified 10,208 (40.0%) with liver-related abnormalities. By connecting quantitative imaging evidence with agentic report generation, this work takes a step toward human-centered medical AI that prioritizes traceability and clinical relevance.

3D-BBDA: Backpropagation-Free Black-Box Domain Adaptation for Robust 3D Point Cloud Recognition

Shivangi Rai, Kunal Jangid, Vaibhav Kumar, Vinod K Kurmi

原文摘要

Robust 3D point-cloud recognition is critical for robotics, mapping, and urban sensing, yet point-cloud classifiers often suffer performance drops under domain shifts caused by sensor changes, environmental variation, and acquisition artifacts. Many existing adaptation methods are difficult to deploy in practice because they require access to source data or the internal parameters of the source model, which may be restricted by privacy, licensing, or security constraints. We present 3D-BBDA, a backpropagation-free black-box domain adaptation framework that adapts a source-trained predictor to unlabeled target data using only black-box outputs. Our method performs pseudo-label guided prototype-based alignment and employs a weighted prediction module to fuse source logits with alignment logits, reducing sensitivity to noisy pseudo-labels. To stabilize prototype memory when pseudo-label coverage is incomplete, we construct a Gaussian-perturbed prototype prior from unlabeled target predictions and use it as a fallback for missing or unreliable class prototypes during alignment. Experiments on four corrupted 3D benchmarks demonstrate consistent improvements over strong baselines. On ModelNet-40C, 3D-BBDA achieves mean errors of 32.08% (PointNet) and 29.62% (GDANet), outperforming Source-only (35.88% / 34.03%) and BFTT3D (33.78% / 32.36%). 3D-BBDA requires only a single forward pass with no gradient updates making it suitable for real-time, privacy-preserving deployment in transferable 3D recognition pipelines.

Tune-Up Open-Weight CLIP: Optimization Framework for Self-Supervised Fine-tuning of CLIP

Anant Mehta, Xingyu Chen, Xiyuan Wei, Tianbao Yang

原文摘要

CLIP has become a cornerstone of multimodal representation learning, yet improving its performance typically requires a prohibitively costly process of training from scratch on billions of samples. We ask a different question: Can we improve the performance of open-weight CLIP models across various downstream tasks using only existing self-supervised datasets? Unlike supervised fine-tuning, which adapts a pretrained model to a single downstream task, our setting seeks to improve general performance across various tasks. However, as both our experiments and prior studies reveal, simply applying standard training protocols starting from an open-weight CLIP model often fails, leading to performance degradation. In this paper, we introduce TuneCLIP, a self-supervised fine-tuning framework that overcomes the performance degradation. TuneCLIP has two key components: (1) a warm-up stage of recovering optimization statistics to reduce cold-start bias, inspired by theoretical analysis, and (2) a fine-tuning stage of optimizing a new contrastive loss to mitigate the penalization on false negative pairs. Our extensive experiments show that TuneCLIP consistently improves performance across model architectures and scales. Notably, it elevates leading open-weight models like SigLIP (ViT-B/16), achieving gains of up to +2.5% on ImageNet and related out-of-distribution benchmarks, and +1.2% on the highly competitive DataComp benchmark, setting a new strong baseline for efficient post-pretraining adaptation. The code is available at https://github.com/Optimization-AI/TuneCLIP.

PlantVLM-Edge: Quantized Vision-Language Models for On-Device Crop Health Diagnosis

Gaurab Wagle, Bishal Adhikari, Jiajia Li, Xiaolei Huang, Dong Chen

原文摘要

Timely and accurate crop health diagnosis is essential for sustainable agricultural production, yet accurate diagnosis often requires expert knowledge that is not readily available. Recent vision-language models (VLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in visual understanding, reasoning, and natural-language interaction, creating new opportunities for intelligent crop health assessment. However, deploying VLMs on resource-constrained devices remains challenging due to their substantial computational and memory requirements. This paper presents PlantVLM-Edge, a quantized vision-language framework for conversational crop health diagnosis that can run entirely on resource-constrained edge devices. PlantVLM-Edge combines agricultural domain adaptation, post-training quantization, and on-device serving with an offline chat interface, allowing growers to ask open-ended questions and receive diagnoses, symptom explanations, and management guidance without cloud connectivity. The framework is backbone-agnostic: we validate it with two different VLM types with varying scale and architecture (Qwen3-VL-2B and LLaVA-1.5-7B), four quantization schemes, and two diagnostic domains (plant diseases and insect pests), and we deploy all variants on an NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin. Eight-bit quantization affects answer quality minimally relative to the full-precision model, and 4-bit activation-aware weight quantization (AWQ) retains 98.6% of full-precision answer quality on both domains while reducing the weight memory of the 2B backbone by 49%. In its most compact form, PlantVLM-Edge requires 2.01 GiB of weight memory, returns its first token in about 0.12 s, and completes a 64-token diagnostic response in 0.78 s. These results demonstrate that timely and accurate crop health diagnosis is practical on edge devices, providing a foundation for next-generation crop monitoring and decision support systems.

Contrastive Adapter Training and Consensus Knowledge Distillation for Multi-Source-Free Domain Adaptation in Skin Cancer Diagnosis

Ali Abedi, Q. M. Jonathan Wu, Ning Zhang, Farhad Pourpanah

原文摘要

Skin cancer diagnosis, particularly differentiating melanoma from benign nevi, is challenging due to the visual similarity between lesions. Although convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and vision transformers (ViTs) have shown promising performance, their effectiveness often deteriorates on data from heterogeneous clinical sources. Conventional domain adaptation methods address domain shift but require access to source data during adaptation, which is often infeasible due to privacy regulations. Multi-source-free unsupervised domain adaptation (MSFDA) addresses this limitation by leveraging multiple labeled source domains to generalize to an unlabeled target domain without requiring access to source data. However, existing MSFDA methods rely on full backbone fine-tuning, leading to catastrophic forgetting and overfitting on small clinical datasets, and address domain shift at the aggregation stage without establishing a shared domain-invariant feature space. Furthermore, their reliance on hard pseudo-labels or confidence-weighted aggregation introduces noisy supervision signals under domain shift. To address these limitations, we propose CAT-CKD, consisting of two components: (1) contrastive adapter training (CAT), which trains lightweight ConvPass adapters within a frozen ViT backbone using supervised contrastive learning (SCL) to establish a shared domain-invariant feature space before source-specific model training, and (2) consensus knowledge distillation (CKD), which aggregates logits from multiple source models into a consensus supervisory signal and adapts a student model on unlabeled target data using KL divergence. Experiments on five publicly available skin lesion datasets show that CAT-CKD achieves an average AUROC of 86.1%, outperforming existing MSFDA methods while requiring only 4.3M trainable parameters. The code is available at https://github.com/A-Abedi/CAT_CKD.

RIPE-MambaSpike: Resolution-Independent Spiking-State-Space Interfaces for Parameter-Efficient Event-Based Vision

Md Muhiminul Islam, Shoaib Ahmed Dipu, Sayeed Shafayet Chowdhury

原文摘要

Spiking-Mamba hybrids reach strong accuracy on event-based vision, but existing designs often require tens of millions of parameters. Much of that cost comes from how the spiking front-end is connected to the state-space backbone rather than from the hybrid architecture itself. In a representative model, a single resolution-dependent projection accounts for 33.55M of 36.25M parameters. To that end, we introduce RIPE-MambaSpike (Resolution-Independent, Parameter-Efficient), which replaces that projection with a hierarchical multi-resolution bridge of fixed channel width. Its deployed footprint is 0.870M parameters, constant at fixed time steps and widths across a 43x range of input areas. Reparameterized spiking stages, temporal decoupled modulation, and a dynamic convex-hull-bounded dual-stream membrane-potential attention preserve accuracy under this compact design. Result-wise, RIPE-MambaSpike is pareto-optimal on CIFAR10-DVS, N-Caltech101, and DailyDVS-200. Notably, on the 200-class DailyDVS-200, a scaled 8.04M configuration achieves 45.7% top-1 accuracy, the best reported spiking result on that benchmark, and outperforms prior spiking methods with 3.0-15.1x fewer parameters than dense ANNs. Overall, our findings demonstrate that competitive event-based recognition does not require resolution-dependent parameter growth.

Smart Surveillance: Deep Learning and Hybrid Approaches for Dynamic Scene Analysis, Object Detection and Motion Tracking

Shahran Rahman Alve, Shahnewaz Siddique

原文摘要

Event-triggered recording reduces the footage a surveillance camera must store, but the trigger decides how much idle video is kept, how many events are missed, and how much computation is spent. We compare six motion triggers (frame differencing, dense optical flow, MOG2, KNN, CNT, GSOC), a CNN detector, strided detection, and three motion-gated hybrids under one recording policy, on a benchmark of seven static-camera scenes (5,800 frames, 27 annotated events) with thresholds transferred to unseen scenes by leave-one-video-out. Detector-based triggers stored 19-28% of idle frames, against 36-89% for motion triggers. Under simulated camera jitter, frame differencing, optical flow, MOG2 and KNN stored 97-100% of idle frames, while detector triggers stayed below 29%. Running the detector on every 8th frame kept 99.7% of event frames at 9.8 ms of CPU per frame, cheaper and more robust than gating it with background subtraction. On VisDrone, raising YOLO11n's input from 640 to 1280 px raised AP from 15.5 to 26.8, more than a larger model, and INT8 quantization cut latency by 17% for 0.3 AP. In tracking, longer track memory raised IDF1 from 70.5 to 76.7, but every tracker recovered only 39-44% of overlapped people, because detection rather than association failed.

HIVE-Diff: High Frame Rate HDR Video Reconstruction from a Single LDR Frame and Events

Caixin Wang, Qingrui Wang, Jie Zhang, Ralph Etienne-Cummings

原文摘要

High frame rate HDR video is important in applications such as autonomous driving and scientific imaging, where rapid motion and extreme illumination often occur simultaneously. Conventional frame cameras face a trade-off between temporal resolution and dynamic range, while event cameras provide complementary high-speed brightness-change measurements over a wide illumination range. These properties have motivated event-based HDR reconstruction, with existing methods broadly following event-only and hybrid event-frame paradigms. Event-only HDR reconstruction, however, suffers from brightness and color drift due to the lack of absolute intensity references. Hybrid event-frame methods alleviate this ambiguity using low-dynamic-range (LDR) frames as anchors, but most perform one-to-one HDR reconstruction at available LDR timestamps. In this work, we investigate single-reference HDR temporal expansion, reconstructing N HDR frames from one LDR reference and events instead of N aligned LDR observations. We develop HIVE-Diff, an event-conditioned video diffusion framework that decomposes the task into event-guided temporal generation and HDR content completion. Because paired real HDR-event data are scarce, we train on synthetic data and adapt the model to real event domains using LDR-event sequences as proxy supervision with teacher-student distillation. Experiments on synthetic and multiple real-world datasets demonstrate strong reconstruction quality and robust real-data adaptation.

Intent2CAD: How Semantic-Parametric Supervision Shapes Text-to-CAD Generation

Jinbo Yang, Mingyue Yuan, Shikai Jing

原文摘要

Text-to-CAD generation aims to make CAD modeling more accessible by generating executable CAD programs from natural-language descriptions. However, practical CAD workflows require more than executable geometry: generated programs should also expose reusable structure that supports later modification. We introduce intent-oriented text-to-CAD generation, where design intent is expressed as recoverable code-level signals: semantic features, reusable parameters, and lightweight parametric relations. Rather than changing the model architecture or decoding procedure, we investigate how supervision representation granularity affects both CAD generation and zero-shot intent-preserving editing. To enable this study, we construct IntentCAD-100K, a 100K paired text--code dataset built by converting low-level CAD construction traces into executable CadQuery programs. We further construct IntentCAD-Edit-1K to evaluate zero-shot intent-preserving editing from the same representation perspective. Intent2CAD uses a two-stage conservative lifting pipeline: semantic lifting rewrites reliable primitive groups into feature-level operations, while parametric lifting exposes lightweight parametric relations. Under controlled fine-tuning, semantic lifting mainly improves generation reliability and feature recovery, reducing IR from 2.39% to 0.22% and achieving 99.96% API Recovery, while parametric lifting makes reusable relation structure explicit and further improves relation-aware zero-shot editing. Datasets and code are available at https://github.com/JinboYang94/Intent2CAD.

Align Once to Explain: Feature Alignment for Scalable B-cosification of Foundational Vision Transformers

Raphael Maser, Siddhartha Gairola, Sukrut Rao, Bernt Schiele

原文摘要

Foundational vision models have become the de facto standard for many vision tasks due to their strong performance. However, they are notoriously opaque and remain hard to interpret. We present ALOE (ALign Once to Explain), a one-time, label-free feature alignment approach that efficiently converts foundational vision models into inherently interpretable B-cos variants. Once aligned, the B-cos backbone is used as a drop-in replacement across several downstream tasks-amortizing the cost of interpretability. ALOE is robust across pre-training paradigms (supervised, self-supervised, vision-language) and can preserve teacher-level generalization with orders of magnitude less data than training from scratch. On classification, it strongly outperforms vanilla B-cosification (e.g., +10.5 p.p. top-1 on ImageNet for DINOv3 ViT-B/16), retains strong linear probing, k-NN, and zero-shot transfer competitive with foundational backbones (DINOv3, SigLIP2) across diverse downstream datasets. It also preserves spatially structured features useful for dense prediction, while yielding well-localized and highly human-interpretable explanations by design.

Evaluating Depth-Augmented Visual Features for Cross-Dataset Lunar Traversability Estimation

Jan Baturo, Bartosz Ptak

原文摘要

Autonomous mobility is essential for sustained lunar surface operations, as communication delays and line-of-sight occlusions limit continuous teleoperation. Although recent traversability estimation methods increasingly rely on deep learning, the domain gap between terrestrial analogue environments and real lunar terrain can limit their generalisation, and real lunar traversability labels are scarce, making fully supervised training difficult. To address these challenges, we build a weakly supervised framework trained on sparse pairwise annotations and study whether augmenting visual features with depth-derived geometric information: depth, surface normals, and combined geometric descriptors. We evaluate the models in both in-domain and cross-domain settings using two terrestrial analogue datasets and the real lunar Chang'E PCAM dataset. Contrary to expectations, we find that naive geometric augmentation yields no consistent improvement over a strong visual-only baseline in either setting, with effects small relative to seed-to-seed variance. Instead, the choice of training source emerges as the dominant factor in transfer quality: models trained on domain-relevant sources transfer substantially better to real lunar imagery than the geometric fusion strategy improves any single model. Our evaluation runs onboard a resource-constrained edge device and provides a controlled baseline for designing more expressive multimodal fusion architectures in future lunar perception systems.

Programmable Silicon Retina on Pixel Processor Array

Maciej Lewandowski, Prince Philip, Alexandre Marcireau, Chetan Singh Thakur, André van Schaik, Piotr Dudek

原文摘要

Standard dynamic vision sensors approximate retinal processing by detecting temporal contrast changes, offering high speed and high dynamic range. In this work, we explore whether incorporating additional biologically inspired processing stages - specifically spatial filtering and gain control - can offer advantages for certain downstream tasks such as saliency prediction. We present the first implementation of a multi-stage Silicon Retina model on the SCAMP-5 Pixel Processor Array, along with a GPU-based simulation framework. We evaluate the performance of our model on Video Intensity Reconstruction and Video Saliency Prediction. While the bio-inspired model is less effective at reconstructing absolute intensity frames, it achieves a 13\% reduction in saliency prediction loss in comparison to standard DVS event representation, while reducing the event rate by approximately 47\%. These experiments are obtained using a lightweight $\approx 100$k-parameter FireNet-style network, adapted from event-based reconstruction to saliency prediction. These results suggest that the silicon retina's "information distillation" mechanism can achieve a more efficient representation for downstream neural networks, particularly in bandwidth-constrained edge applications.

Circumventing Magnitude Collapse via Modular Two-Stage Open-Set Recognition

Laurin van den Bergh, Halil Bisgin, Andres Palechor, Mike Suter, Manuel Günther

原文摘要

Open-set recognition (OSR) requires neural networks to classify known classes while rejecting unknown samples, which is critical for real-world deployment. So far, OSR research studied and developed representation learning and postprocessing methods independently and their interactions remain unexplored. In this paper, we reconsider OSR as a modular two-stage pipeline and present the first systematic study of interactions between representation learning and postprocessing methods across dataset scales and usage of known unknown data. First, we discover a failure mode we term \emph{magnitude collapse}, where representation learning methods that utilize known unknown data can suffer performance degradation at large scale and irreversibly destroy discriminative information, despite excelling at small scale. Second, we study the modular interactions and reveal when they can be leveraged for modular performance gains via two-stage processing and where interaction effects amplify performance degradation due to magnitude collapse. Third, we show how these findings can be used to achieve state-of-the-art performance with a simple $K+1$ class classifier baseline and magnitude-aware postprocessing while circumventing magnitude collapse. Finally, our results demonstrate that small-scale evaluations with known unknown data are not predictive of large-scale performance, invalidating current best practices in OSR research.

VidDub: Replacement-Aware Distillation for Two-Step Video Dubbing

Yexin Liu, Yunlong Lin, Zehan Wang, Guangxin He, Xinli Xu, Jiajun Zha, Yaofu Liu, Yueze Wang 等 14 位作者

原文摘要

Video dubbing aims to synthesize lip movements that match target speech while preserving the speaker identity, head pose, and background of a source video. Existing editors are predominantly trained via self-reconstruction under original paired audio, even though the source mouth becomes a conflicting target when driving speech is replaced. We introduce replacement-aware cross-audio supervision: paired-audio samples use full-frame reconstruction, whereas unpaired replacement-audio samples mask out source-mouth reconstruction losses and supervise the mouth solely through audio-visual synchronization while preserving unmasked facial regions and background. Because offline dubbing provides the complete source video and target speech beforehand, we present VidDub, a full-context diffusion editor distilled into two denoising steps (2 NFE). Our replacement-aware teacher first learns accurate lip synchronization without regressing toward conflicting source mouth movements. Matched trajectory regression then transfers the teacher's CFG-guided trajectories to a two-step student, and distribution matching distillation recovers visual quality after step compression. We will release the curated training dataset, VidDub-Bench, fixed paired- and cross-audio evaluation manifests, preprocessing outputs, and unified evaluation code. Across three training seeds, masking out conflicting source-mouth reconstruction improves cross-audio Sync-C by 0.833; the final two-step model combines strong lip synchronization with superior visual quality, identity preservation, and visual speech recognition across four benchmarks.

Image Guided Depth Upsampling using Anisotropic Total Generalized Variation

David Ferstl, Christian Reinbacher, Rene Ranftl, Matthias Rüther, Horst Bischof

原文摘要

In this work we present a novel method for the challenging problem of depth image upsampling. Modern depth cameras such as Kinect or Time of Flight cameras deliver dense, high quality depth measurements but are limited in their lateral resolution. To overcome this limitation we formulate a convex optimization problem using higher order regularization for depth image upsampling. In this optimization an anisotropic diffusion tensor, calculated from a high resolution intensity image, is used to guide the upsampling. We derive a numerical algorithm based on a primaldual formulation that is efficiently parallelized and runs at multiple frames per second. We show that this novel upsampling clearly outperforms state of the art approaches in terms of speed and accuracy on the widely used Middlebury 2007 datasets. Furthermore, we introduce novel datasets with highly accurate groundtruth, which, for the first time, enable to benchmark depth upsampling methods using real sensor data.

TaoMate-HD: Progressive-Resolution Autoregressive Audio-Video Generation

Qijun Gan, Chenwei Zhang, Xinyang Li, Meiguang Jin, Junfeng Ma, Shen Qiu

原文摘要

Streaming digital humans produce detailed video while continuing speech as new text arrives. High-resolution denoising is costly, and text updates can cause repeated or interrupted speech. We present TaoMate-HD, an autoregressive model for high-resolution audio-video streaming. For each short segment, or chunk, two denoising steps establish coarse video structure at low resolution. A final step refines the video to high resolution, with audio generated throughout the same trajectory. Each stage passes its audiovisual predictions to the same stage of the next chunk as history. Across text updates, the model retains this history to infer what has already been spoken. Continuation training utilizes asymmetric text conditioning, with separate text windows for generation and distillation. Experiments show a 1.6x speedup over direct high-resolution generation with the same model and hardware. Optimized stage-parallel deployment provides a further 1.9x overall speedup over serial progressive generation. Our continuation training reduces character error rate by 11.18 percentage points relative to the baseline. The model also supports hour-long audiovisual generation.

Progressive Multi-Scale Super-Resolution via Cascaded Bicubic Anchors and Inter-Scale Mutual Refinement

Chun-An Lin, Yu-Chia Chang, Chi-Mao Fan, Yen-Chieh Ouyang, Tsung-Jung Liu

原文摘要

Super-resolution networks are trained for one magnification factor, so several output resolutions require several models. We propose PMS-SR, a progressive single-input multiple-output network that produces x2, x4, and x8 results in one forward pass, with a Transformer backbone on the low-resolution grid. In Stage 1, each scale is predicted as a residual over the detached bicubic upsampling of the previous scale's prediction. With Dirac and zero initialization, training starts exactly from the bicubic cascade, and each head adds only the band the previous scale lacks. In Stage 2, inter-scale mutual refinement couples the scales in both directions through space-to-depth feedback, deformable alignment, and per-pixel fusion, so x8 features refine the x2 output. Trained on DF2K, the 7.95M-parameter model achieves a higher PSNR than every compared multi-scale method at x4 and x8 on all five standard benchmarks. At x8, it outperforms the x8-specific DRN-L on all of them, leads all compared methods on Urban100, and is within 0.13 dB of the best result elsewhere. Against three single-scale SwinIR-M models, PMS-SR uses 22% of the parameters, runs 2.9x faster on BSD100 inputs, and its outputs agree 6.7-12.4 dB more closely. Code and pretrained models will be released at https://github.com/julian135707/PMS-SR upon acceptance.

ASCoR: Asymmetric Semantic-Spatial Learning for Remote Sensing Domain Generalization

Zitong Wang, Shuchang Lyu, Meng Li, Qiang Wang, Guangliang Cheng, Zhenwei Shi

原文摘要

Source-only domain generalization (DG) for remote sensing semantic segmentation seeks reliable predictions in unseen domains without target-domain data during training. Although vision foundation models offer transferable knowledge, category recognition remains sensitive to source-specific visual cues, while task-specific adaptation may weaken pretrained transferability. We propose ASCoR, an asymmetric semantic-spatial framework built on SAM3. Its text-conditioned semantic branch uses class-name prompts to provide explicit category guidance. Probe-Once Dynamic Adaptive LoRA distributes a fixed adaptation budget across encoder blocks to limit source-specific specialization. A complementary task-specific dense branch learns multi-scale spatial representations using a separate frozen SAM3 image encoder. A lightweight reliability router integrates the two branches through bounded spatial correction based on local prediction reliability. All components are trained using source-domain supervision only. Experiments on the ISPRS, LoveDA, and OpenEarthMap benchmarks cover nine cross-domain transfers. ASCoR achieves a state-of-the-art mean IoU of 68.61% across six ISPRS transfers, outperforming the previous best method by 2.69 percentage points. It also achieves the best results on all three LoveDA/OpenEarthMap transfers, with 59.07%, 47.95%, and 49.38% mIoU on Rural-to-Urban, Urban-to-Rural, and Urban-to-OpenEarthMap, respectively. Ablation studies, feature visualizations, and spatial reliability analyses support the effectiveness and complementarity of the proposed components. Code: https://github.com/WangZitong42/ASCoR.

Same Outputs, Different Scores: Auditing the Unchecked Graders of Multimodal LLM Benchmarks

Ahmad Jarjis Hasan, Jonathan Lwowski

原文摘要

Every multimodal-LLM multiple-choice benchmark ends with a scoring rule that converts a model's response, often free-form text rather than a clean option letter, into a right/wrong verdict, buried in its code. Unlike the dataset, this rule is chosen without justification and left unexamined, yet it sets the published number. We reproduce the official scorers of eight peer-reviewed benchmarks on five open vision-language models (VLMs) that fit a single 16 GB GPU, and introduce a blinded human-plus-LLM-judge adjudication (Cohen's kappa=0.956) that recovers what the model actually answered. The scoring rule alone moves accuracy by up to 22 points on identical outputs, yet exactly 0 wherever a model emits clean option letters, so it hides on strong-model leaderboards. It is the fallback and not the rambling that does the damage: the benchmark with the highest non-compliance we measure has an artifact of exactly zero, because its scorer abstains instead of guessing; a reasoning model with non-compliance 0.000 still swings 9.5 points with which regex match of its trace the parser keeps. No standard rule is reliable: snapping a non-answer to its closest option credits answers never given yet buries correct ones, abstention discards answers stated in words, and likelihood scoring follows answer-token priors, so a single grade conflates capability with luck rather than measuring either. We release all code, labels, and the protocol, and argue benchmarks should report a non-compliance rate and at least two rules, not one unexamined grade.

Diffusion Masked Pretraining for Dynamic Point Cloud

Zhuoyue Zhang, Yiding Sun, Chaowei Fang, Haozhe Cheng, Jian Liu, Ajmal Saeed Mian, Jihua Zhu

原文摘要

Dynamic point cloud pretraining is still dominated by masked reconstruction objectives. However, these objectives inherit two key limitations. Existing methods inject ground-truth tube centers as decoder positional embeddings, causing spatio-temporal positional leakage. Moreover, they supervise inter-frame motion with deterministic proxy targets that systematically discard distributional structure by collapsing multimodal trajectory uncertainty into conditional means. To address these limitations, we propose Diffusion Masked Pretraining (DiMP), a unified self-supervised framework for dynamic point clouds. DiMP introduces diffusion modeling into both positional inference and motion learning. It first applies forward diffusion noise only to masked tube centers, then predicts clean centers from visible spatio-temporal context. This removes positional leakage while preserving visible coordinates as clean temporal anchors. DiMP also reformulates point-wise inter-frame displacement supervision as a DDPM noise-prediction objective conditioned on decoded representations. This design drives the encoder to target the full conditional distribution of plausible motions under a variational surrogate, rather than collapsing to a single deterministic estimate. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DiMP consistently improves downstream accuracy over the backbone alone, with absolute gains of 11.21\% on offline action segmentation and 13.65\% under causally constrained online inference. Code is available at https://github.com/InitalZ/DiMP.

EO-Jev: Decision Model for Earth Observation

Mohamed Atef Abouelhadid, Diaa Addeen Abuhani, Muhammad Akhtar Munir, Fahad Shahbaz Khan, Salman Khan

原文摘要

Earth observation (EO) workflows require selecting among known outcomes, estimating confidence, and processing large volumes of imagery. Generative vision-language models can address these tasks, but autoregressive decoding is computationally costly and their confidence estimates are unreliable. Decision models offer an alternative, returning probabilities over candidate answers in a single forward pass. However, their accuracy, calibration, and transfer across EO tasks remain insufficiently understood. We investigate these properties through a diagnostic study of d3-flash (8.4B parameters) across 30 settings from 23 public EO benchmarks. We find that compositional reasoning transfers well and calibration improves over its Qwen3.5-9B backbone on 24 settings, while counting, change quantification, damage grading, and absent-object recognition remain challenging. To address these limitations, we adapt d3-flash through low-rank fine-tuning on public EO training splits, producing EO-Jev. EO-Jev improves significantly over d3-flash on 26 of 30 settings and matches or exceeds specialist references on 20 of 28. It also achieves an average gain of 8.0 points across 12 held-out settings and lower expected calibration error than specialists on 21 of 28 settings. These improvements come at a modest cost of 1.8 points in general decision performance. Our results demonstrate the potential of adapting general decision models into competitive EO generalists while highlighting persistent challenges in quantitative perception, option-order consistency, and calibration under distribution shift.

Fuse To Align: Multimodal Representation Learning for Retrieval via Hypergraph Regularization

Anindya Nag, Ambuj Mehrish, Sebastiano Vascon

原文摘要

Multimodal retrieval must integrate complementary evidence from views that may be missing, noisy, or unequally informative. When a sample provides limited reliable evidence, learning from its views alone can hinder the acquisition of useful retrieval representations. Semantically related training samples may provide complementary observations, yet existing volume-based objectives jointly align modalities within each sample without explicitly enabling information exchange across samples. We therefore propose a training-time hypergraph fusion framework that connects observed modalities both within samples and across semantically related samples, allowing representation learning to draw on evidence beyond an individual sample while leaving the retrieval pipeline unchanged at inference. The framework includes HyVol as a special case and introduces two configurations: wHyVol learns view contribution weights and symmetric semantic affinities, whereas wRHG additionally models typed interactions and participant roles through relational propagation. Missing modalities are omitted rather than imputed, and the hypergraph is discarded after training, incurring no additional inference cost. Experiments on eleven zero-shot video-text and audio-text retrieval benchmarks demonstrate broad improvements with both GRAM and HyperGRAM. Across 17 video benchmark-modality settings evaluated in both retrieval directions, wRHG outperforms GRAM in all 34 comparisons and HyperGRAM in 33 of 34. Mean text-to-video R@1 increases from 63.4 to 68.2 with GRAM and from 64.8 to 68.4 with HyperGRAM, while the largest video-to-text gain reaches 13.3 percentage points on ActivityNet. Under missing-modality evaluation, both weighted configurations retain positive text-to-video gains over GRAM across seven benchmarks at every evaluated missingness rate, even when 90% of clips lack one modality.

Using OCR Heads to Verbalize Image Semantics

Sheridan Feucht, Benno Krojer, Sarah Wang, Henry Abrahamsen, Byron C. Wallace, David Bau

原文摘要

How do VLMs map from pixels to semantics? To understand this general question, we focus on a narrow one: studying how VLMs perform optical character recognition (OCR). Across four models, we identify attention heads causally necessary for OCR, and discover that these are in fact general-purpose heads that output interpretable semantic features across all image tokens. For example, pointing these heads at an image token containing the word "bike" causes Qwen3-VL-8B to output "bike," but pointing them at a bird wing causes the model to output the token "feathers." We collapse these heads' attention weights into a single verbalization lens transformation that reveals interpretable semantic features in hidden states across all layers. When combined with projection to vocabulary space, we can obtain interpretable labels starting from layer 0, showing that image representations are in fact aligned with language in early layers. We find that we can also use the inverse of this transformation to edit non-word concepts, e.g., replacing a tractor with a revolver in a naturalistic image, providing causal evidence that this subspace is useful for more than just OCR. Our results are an example of how the study of specific mechanisms can shed light on broader interpretability problems.

Every Pixel Is an Option: A System One Model for Medical Ultrasound Biometry

Moein Heidari, Junbo Rao, Yudan Chen, Yasamin Medghalchi, River Jiang, Wenjin Chen, David J. Foran, Jasmine Grewal 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

**Purpose:** Ultrasound biometry is widely used across various clinical applications, including prenatal and cardiac examinations, to obtain quantitative measurements by placing calipers at anatomical landmarks. However, these measurements remain subject to interoperator variability as they rely largely on manual caliper placement. Conventional methods often use specialized prediction heads for different ultrasound tasks, whereas vision-language models offer flexibility through text instructions. However, direct coordinate prediction does not explicitly model spatial likelihood distributions, limiting the representation of localization ambiguity. **Methods:** We propose Kev-Bio, a vision-language model that uses clinical measurement questions to guide ultrasound landmark detection. Inspired by System One decision models, Kev-Bio uses decision representations of the language model to generate queries for each caliper endpoint. These queries are matched against shared dense ultrasound features to produce spatial probability maps, from which landmark coordinates and clinical measurements are derived. The model is trained end-to-end using both landmark localization and clinical measurement losses. **Results:** On the nine-view FU/GU Biometry 2026 dataset, Kev-Bio achieves a mean radial error (MRE) of 22.50 pixels and a clinical measurement mean absolute error (MAE) of 15.38, outperforming the compared baselines in overall performance. **Conclusion:** These results demonstrate the effectiveness of Kev-Bio for ultrasound landmark detection and clinical measurement across different anatomical views. Our code and models are available at https://github.com/moeinheidari7829/Kev-Bio.

Matching in Context: Temporal Fusion and Query Adaptation for Training-Free Video Temporal Grounding

Zhuo Cao, Bingqing Zhang, Sen Wang, Xue Li

原文摘要

Text-guided Video Temporal Grounding (VTG) localizes moments in an untrimmed video that correspond to a text query. Supervised approaches require costly temporal annotations and task-specific training, yet can generalize poorly under distribution shift. To reduce this dependence on task-specific supervision, training-free approaches use pretrained vision-language models to localize moments by measuring the similarity between video and query features. However, independently encoded frames provide limited temporal context, while a fixed query embedding can assign similar scores to different candidate moments within the video. To address these limitations, we propose DSE-VTG, a \underline{D}ual-\underline{S}ide \underline{E}nhancement framework that combines visual evidence across temporal granularities with video-specific query adaptation, without task-specific training. On the visual side, Multi-scale Similarity Fusion (MSF) combines frame- and clip-level similarities into a unified, temporally aware similarity profile. On the query side, Query-level Test-Time Adaptation (Q-TTA) uses pseudo-labels to optimize a lightweight additive offset for more discriminative matching within the video, without fine-tuning the backbone or calling external large language models. Experiments on three standard and two out-of-distribution (OOD) benchmarks show gains over the prior training-free methods. On Charades-STA, DSE-VTG improves mIoU by 5.89 percentage points over the strongest compared baseline under the same backbone. Under distribution shift, DSE-VTG reaches 50.86 mIoU on Charades-CG Novel-Word, surpassing the strongest supervised baseline by 2.76 mIoU. Our code will be released upon acceptance.

UAV-DualCog: A Dual-Cognition Benchmark for Grounded UAV Agent-World Reasoning with MLLMs

Like Liu, Zhengzheng Xu, Hongzhe Li, Lin Wang, Dian Shao

原文摘要

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) perform strongly across vision-language tasks, yet remain insufficiently explored in UAV scenarios. Recent UAV-oriented benchmarks have begun to evaluate MLLMs in aerial scenarios, but typically focus on scene understanding, event recognition, or navigation completion, rather than jointly assessing the dual-cognition capability required for UAV agents: reasoning about the UAV's own position, behavior, and observation state alongside external landmark states under continuously changing viewpoints, supported by explicit spatio-temporal grounding. To address this gap, we present UAV-DualCog, the first benchmark to formulate UAV dual cognition as the coordinated evaluation of Agent-State Reasoning and World-State Reasoning across multi-view images and egocentric videos, with explicit spatial or temporal grounding. The State-aware UAV Simulation Platform (SUSP) and the DualCog-aware Capture System (DCCS) construct 4,096 image and 2,048 video samples from 12 scenes, pairing complementary state questions within shared Agent-Landmark contexts. Extensive evaluations on 45 models show that current MLLMs remain far from reliable in UAV dual cognition: Agent-State Reasoning is generally weaker than World-State Reasoning, semantic answers do not reliably coincide with spatial or temporal grounding, and coordinated abilities remain limited. Thinking-mode comparisons, open-ended analyses, and sim-to-real validation show that these limitations persist across inference settings, formats, and environments. We further construct UAV-DualCog-Train and improve UAV dual-cognition performance through a lightweight optimization probe.

ArabGeoText: Tool-Augmented Vision-Language Models for Arabic Geospatial Text Spotting

Yakoub Bazi, Sarah Alsaleh, Mohamad M. Al Rahhal, Mohamed A. Mekhtiche, Mansour Zuair

原文摘要

Geospatial text spotting involves locating and transcribing geographic labels, such as road names, district names, and landmarks, in raster maps. These labels are often small, densely arranged, and arbitrarily oriented. Although Arabic text recognition has been studied extensively in documents and natural scenes, Arabic geospatial text spotting remains underexplored. We introduce ARABGEOTEXT, an Arabic-centric benchmark covering 970 geographic locations in Riyadh and Jeddah, with 17,875 manually annotated text instances per view type. For each location, we pair an OpenStreetMap (OSM) rendering with a composite created by overlaying that rendering on the corresponding remote sensing (RS) imagery. The paired views preserve label content and pixel geometry, allowing evaluation across different backgrounds. Geographic partitions support in-city and city-disjoint evaluation of detection, recognition, and end-to-end spotting. Experiments with direct Qwen3.5-4B spotting show difficulties in recovering all labels within a tile. We therefore propose a tool-augmented vision-language framework that combines YOLO26 localization and crop rectification with Qwen3.5-4B recognition adapted through low-rank adaptation (LoRA). The framework outperforms direct LoRA-adapted Qwen3.5-4B spotting across both image views and test cities. With localization held fixed, reader adaptation further improves recognition over the pretrained zero-shot reader. The dataset and code will be made publicly available at https://github.com/yakoubbazi/ArabGeoText.

TurboWAM: Learning What Matters for Fast World Action Models

Guile Wu, Shuangzhi Li, Xingxin Chen, Chengjie Huang, Sam Hosseini, Tongtong Cao, Yingxue Zhang, Dongfeng Bai

原文摘要

World action models have demonstrated promising performance in robot policy learning, yet their high inference latency remains a critical bottleneck for real-world deployment. Recent approaches have sought to improve inference efficiency by eliminating test-time future-frame imagination or accelerating action prediction. However, aggregating representations from all video world model layers can introduce redundant computation, while standard backpropagation may distribute action-supervision gradients unevenly across layers, limiting the effectiveness of world representation learning. In this work, we propose TurboWAM, a fast world action model that learns to efficiently aggregate and optimize world representations for action prediction. Specifically, TurboWAM introduces an efficient world representation aggregation mechanism that restricts aggregation to a bounded range of relevant world model layers identified through layer relevance analysis. Within this bounded range, TurboWAM estimates aggregation weights for different world model layers based on the current action denoising state and combines them with learnable layer-wise weights to fuse world representations. Moreover, TurboWAM employs a world model gradient modulation mechanism that decomposes action-supervision gradients into a layer-shared component and layer-specific residual components, enabling more balanced gradient propagation across world model layers. This mechanism operates exclusively during training and introduces no additional inference computation. Together, these designs enable more efficient world representation learning and low-latency action prediction. Extensive experiments on multiple robot manipulation benchmarks and real-world manipulation tasks show that TurboWAM achieves low inference latency while maintaining competitive task success rates compared with state-of-the-art methods.

ReVA-HPE: Relative 6DoF Head Pose Estimation with Synthetic Pose Supervision and Personalized Virtual Anchors

Vasiliki Vasileiou, Panagiotis P. Filntisis, Petros Maragos, Kostas Daniilidis

原文摘要

Monocular head pose estimation is usually formulated as absolute regression from a single face crop, yet many applications observe the same person over time and can supply an explicit anchor image. Recently, relative head pose estimation was proposed, which casts the problem as estimation of the relative geometric change between an anchor and a query image. However, existing methods still require the anchor image pose to be known at inference, significantly limiting their practical use. We first extend relative head pose estimation to full 6DoF by additionally predicting a depth-normalized relative translation, which composes with the anchor to recover metric query pose in the camera frame. To eliminate the need for a ground-truth anchor pose, we reconstruct a personalized avatar from a single unlabeled enrollment image and render a bank of virtual anchors with known poses. The bank provides robust rotation hypotheses through multi-anchor consensus, while the real enrollment image serves as the real anchor in the translation branch via landmark PnP. We also introduce an efficient variant that amortizes the bank cost once at enrollment, after which each query requires a single real-to-real relative prediction, with limited accuracy sacrifice. The relative pose estimator is trained exclusively on synthetic face renderings, without real pose supervision, pseudo-labels, domain adaptation, or fine-tuning on the evaluation sets. On real 6DoF benchmarks, ReVA-HPE achieves state-of-the-art rotation accuracy on BIWI and, given a near-frontal enrollment image, on FaMoS, while remaining competitive in metric translation despite relying solely on synthetic pose supervision.

VagueBench: Benchmarking the Robustness of Embodied Agents on Ambient Context Illusions

Yang Qu, Qiang Fu, Zonghao Ying, Jiayi Zhao, Yaoyuan Zhang, Jinyang Guo, Jian Yang, Aishan Liu 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

Embodied agents are increasingly deployed in open-world environments, yet current robustness evaluations remain biased toward hazardous instructions and jailbreak vulnerabilities. A more fundamental issue is largely overlooked: agents are rarely tested under semantically sufficient but contextually minimal instructions (i.e., common in real-world human communication), where auxiliary contextual cues are absent. For the first, we identify a novel phenomenon termed Ambient Context Illusion, where agents fail to execute tasks correctly when non-essential contextual details are omitted, despite unchanged task semantics. To systematically study this, we establish VagueBench, a benchmark built upon the AI2-THOR interactive simulation environment for the evaluation of context dependency in embodied agents. We systematically consider key semantic components of instructions (entities, procedures, constraints, and prior knowledge) and derive a unified taxonomy with four categories and nine subtypes to reduce auxiliary information. VagueBench contains 1,303 instruction pairs across diverse indoor environments, constructed via a human-agent co-generation framework that integrates semantic redundancy estimation, taxonomy-guided transformation, and rigorous semantic-invariance verification. Through extensive evaluation on 6 state-of-the-art embodied agents, we observe significant degradation on VagueBench in both task performance and executability (relatively -19.65% in task success rate and relatively +54.10% in empty plan rate) revealing a strong reliance on auxiliary linguistic signals rather than core task semantics. Furthermore, we demonstrate that this phenomenon persists in real-world robotic systems, where it can lead to incorrect decisions and potential safety risks.
