Prompt-Induced Score Variance in Zero-Shot Binary Vision-Language Safety Classification

Charles Weng, Dingwen Li, Alexander Martin

原文摘要

Safety pipelines often block content by thresholding a model's first-token unsafe score. We show that a single prompt's score is not a reliable probability and compare two repairs: mean ensemble and calibration with development labels. Across seven vision-language models and two benchmarks, an input's unsafe probability varies across 15 task-preserving rewordings with a standard deviation of 0.16-0.30 on average; the inputs that vary most are more often misclassified. The 15-prompt mean has lower negative log-likelihood (NLL) than the best single prompt, even one chosen with evaluation labels, on 13 of 14 model-benchmark pairs. Development labels change the picture: jointly selecting and calibrating a single prompt outperforms the similarly calibrated mean for all seven models on held-out data from the development benchmark. Under cross-benchmark evaluation without refitting, however, the advantage reverses, with the calibrated mean outperforming the single prompt on six of seven models. We recommend evaluating first-token scores as a prompt family, using the mean ensemble as the label-free baseline, calibrating one prompt when development labels exist and deployment data match, and calibrating the mean when they may not.

Natural Jammers: When Non-Robust Features Become Antagonistic

Jiaming Zhang, Fuyao Zhang, Pengjun Xie, Wei Yang Bryan Lim

原文摘要

Deep neural networks are known to rely on non-robust features that align poorly with human perception. Prior work has largely framed these features as opportunistic shortcuts that help standard models on clean data. We show instead that non-robust cues can be antagonistic: they can act as Natural Jammers that actively mislead standard models on clean, unmodified images. Using disagreement between a standard model and robust models as an analysis lens, we identify a Jammed Set on which robust models outperform standard models. We provide causal evidence for Spectral-spatial Locking: jamming arises only when high-frequency components are precisely aligned with specific spatial structures. Disrupting this lock through spectral filtering or small geometric shifts can restore correct predictions. Crucially, we uncover a Substitution Paradox: while individual jammers are fragile to geometric shifts, the aggregate prevalence of jamming remains approximately stable and is redistributed rather than eliminated under such transformations. Our results reframe natural non-robustness as a failure field over the empirical model-data geometry: one that redistributes rather than disappears under small transformations.

JRDB-AVR: An Active Visual Reasoning Benchmark for Embodied Agents in Real-World Environments

Zhixi Cai, Fucai Ke, Sukai Huang, Maria Garcia de la Banda, Peter J. Stuckey, Gholamreza Haffari, Hamid Rezatofighi

原文摘要

In complex embodied visual reasoning scenarios, an agent often has only a limited field of view, and the evidence needed to answer a question may be distributed across time, viewpoint, and interacting objects. A model may therefore give a plausible answer without ever observing the relevant object, time, or view that supports it. Current visual reasoning benchmarks largely evaluate passive observations and final answers, overlooking settings that require active reasoning and evidence acquisition. We introduce JRDB-AVR, a benchmark derived from existing real-world JRDB robotics data through a structured question-generation engine that turns this gap into an explicit evaluation: an embodied agentic system receives a visual reasoning question, requests bounded observations by timestamp and viewing angle, and is evaluated on both the final answer and the grounded visual evidence supporting it. The benchmark contains diverse questions over multiple real-world environments involving temporal search, viewpoint selection, and human-oriented compositional reasoning. We also introduce JRDB-AVR-Agent, a reference active reasoning agentic method that maintains an explicit observation-grounded graph-based world model and answers through solving. Experiments reveal a substantial gap between answer accuracy and evidence accuracy in current baselines, showing that current VLMs can produce unsupported correct answers and that active evidence-aware evaluation is necessary for embodied visual reasoning. Code and benchmark are available at https://github.com/ControlNet/JRDB-AVR.

ToDoPro: Faster and Better Reference-Based Generation: Early Token Reduction via Downsampled Self-Probing

Caiyi Sun, Yujing Sun, Siu-Ming Yiu

原文摘要

Recent generic reference-based image generation models natively support multiple conditions by concatenating all reference image and text tokens into a joint sequence processed by a single Diffusion Transformer (DiT). However, this versatile paradigm comes at an efficiency cost: accommodating multiple references leads to a token explosion, incurring massive $\mathcal{O}(N^2)$ computational complexity. Most acceleration methods operate inside the DiT, showing limited capability in reducing spatial redundancy and failing to alleviate peak VRAM. While some pre-model token reduction alternatives exist, they inevitably introduce external models. This raises a question: Is it possible to achieve acceleration and memory savings while preserving compatibility with in-model techniques and requiring no additional parameters? In this work, we realize this goal by proposing the early Token reduction via Downsampled self-Probing (ToDoPro). By executing a few denoising steps on spatially $2\times$ downsampled reference images, this cheap probing stage utilizes the DiT model itself to effectively and efficiently extract reference token importance. Using the probed importance, we apply a hierarchical reduction before the main denoising stage: we completely discard low-importance tokens, substitute mid-importance tokens with their downsampled counterparts to cheaply preserve global context, and keep high-importance tokens. Experiments across three base models and two benchmarks demonstrate that our early reduction accelerates inference significantly and mitigates peak GPU memory. Furthermore, we can improve generation quality by safely filtering out noisy, uninformative reference tokens, enabling the model to concentrate its limited attention capacity on genuinely useful tokens. The code will be released at https://github.com/scy639/ToDoPro

Factorized Gradients for Scalable Highly-expressive Parametric Diffeomorphisms

Amit Aflalo, Eran Treister, Chaim Baskin, Oren Freifeld

原文摘要

Diffeomorphisms provide a flexible, topology-preserving mathematical tool for modeling complex spatial or temporal deformations and are used in various scientific fields. However, making these deformations simultaneously highly expressive and computationally efficient remains challenging. Continuous Piecewise-Affine Based (CPAB) transformations (Freifeld et al., ICCV 2015; IEEE TPAMI 2017) offer an attractive solution by parameterizing a family of diffeomorphisms via continuous velocity fields that are piecewise affine with respect to a chosen tessellation of the domain. Importantly, $d=\dim(θ)$, the dimension of the parameter vector $θ$, depends on the fineness of the tessellation rather than on the data resolution. Despite this compact parameterization, CPAB optimization has long been hindered by the tight coupling between trajectory integration and gradient computation with respect to $θ$. We introduce FG-CPAB, a factorized-gradient formulation for scalable CPAB transformations. By separating integration from parameter-space projection, our method reduces gradient computation complexity from $\mathcal{O}(dTN)$ to $\mathcal{O}(TN+dC)$, where $T$ is the number of integration steps, $N$ is the number of transformed points, and $C$ is the number of tessellation cells. This reformulation yields speedups of up to four orders of magnitude (e.g., $\approx 10^4\times$ in 2D), substantial memory savings (e.g., $\approx 500\times$ reduction in peak GPU memory usage in 2D), and dramatically higher expressiveness. This makes fine-tessellation CPAB practical in 2D and 3D for the first time, enabling highly expressive parametric diffeomorphisms.

Efficient Multi-modal Video Fusion Network with Dynamic Region-Guided Temporal Interaction

Jingxue Huang, Xiaosong Li, Yi Lin

原文摘要

Multi-modal video fusion aims to generate temporally coherent videos with salient targets and rich structural details by integrating complementary information from heterogeneous sensors. However, existing video fusion methods commonly rely on optical flow estimation and feature warping for inter-frame alignment and cross-frame information aggregation to maintain temporal consistency, thereby introducing considerable computational overhead and making the fusion performance vulnerable to flow estimation errors. To address these limitations, this paper proposes an efficient multi-modal video fusion network with dynamic region-guided temporal interaction. Specifically, the proposed spatio-temporal interaction module leverages the Test-Time Training paradigm to model temporal dependencies with linear complexity. Building on this design, the module restricts temporal modeling to key dynamic regions in the video sequence, as static background regions provide limited temporal cues. By excluding low-variation tokens from unnecessary temporal interaction, this selective strategy contributes to improved fusion quality and temporal consistency. In addition, leveraging the strong ability of pretrained MAE features to capture global structural dependencies, we introduce a feature-level temporal consistency constraint to suppress local flickering by aligning the inter-frame variation directions of the fused and source videos. We further propose a new MAE-based temporal metric that quantifies directional distance between their temporal variations within dynamic regions. Experimental results demonstrate that, compared with existing state-of-the-art methods, our method achieves superior fusion quality and temporal consistency on multiple benchmark datasets, while exhibiting high computational efficiency under edge-device deployment settings.

WAVE: Wavelet-Controlled Coarse-to-Fine Guidance for Depth Super-Resolution

Tayyab Nasir, Daochang Liu, Ajmal Mian

原文摘要

Guided depth super-resolution (GDSR) typically extracts RGB guidance features through convolutional hierarchies, inheriting their fine-to-coarse bias. Thus, low-level spatial cues surface in early layers, leaving the deeper layers to suppress those that do not correspond to true depth boundaries, which risks artifacts and blurred edges. The same fine-to-coarse bias persists in semantics-based methods that consume low-level tokens early and global tokens late. We present WAVE, which introduces a multi-level discrete wavelet transform (ML-DWT) as an explicit and interpretable feature-control mechanism, enabling a coarse-to-fine reconstruction by consuming sub-bands and semantic tokens in reverse of their generation order. WAVE further exploits these sub-bands to treat high- and low-frequency content separately, isolating the misleading RGB color and texture cues before any feature is learned so that their admission can be controlled explicitly, offering an intuitive alternative to the suppression learned implicitly by an opaque network. WAVE separates structure and detail reconstruction into dedicated modules that: i) model interactions within and across wavelet sub-bands, depth features, and semantic priors, ii) apply semantic gating to the high-frequency bands, and iii) fuse modalities through an invertible coupling mechanism that prevents collapse onto a single modality. Extensive experiments across multiple benchmarks demonstrate that WAVE matches or outperforms existing methods, with the largest gains at high upsampling factors, where low-resolution depth contains the least structure.

InfoDiffusion: Representation Learning Using Information Maximizing Diffusion Models

Yingheng Wang, Yair Schiff, Aaron Gokaslan, Weishen Pan, Fei Wang, Christopher De Sa, Volodymyr Kuleshov

原文摘要

While diffusion models excel at generating high-quality samples, their latent variables typically lack semantic meaning and are not suitable for representation learning. Here, we propose InfoDiffusion, an algorithm that augments diffusion models with low-dimensional latent variables that capture high-level factors of variation in the data. InfoDiffusion relies on a learning objective regularized with the mutual information between observed and hidden variables, which is designed to improve latent space quality and to prevent the latents from being ignored by expressive diffusion-based decoders. Empirically, we find that InfoDiffusion learns disentangled and human-interpretable latent representations that are competitive with state-of-the-art generative and contrastive methods, while retaining the high sample quality of diffusion models. Our method enables manipulating the attributes of generated images and has the potential to assist tasks that require exploring a learned latent space to generate quality samples, e.g., generative design.

Adaptation of Foundation Models in Medical Image Analysis: Mechanisms, Evidence, and Deployment Considerations

Karma Phuntsho, Abdullah, Kyungmi Lee, Ickjai Lee, Euijoon Ahn

原文摘要

Foundation models, pretrained on diverse data, objectives, or modalities for reuse across downstream tasks, are increasingly applied to medical image analysis. Their performance depends not only on pretraining but also on how they are adapted to specific tasks, data regimes, and deployment settings. Whereas previous reviews have considered adaptation within broader syntheses, this review focuses specifically on post-pretraining interventions applied to existing FMs. Using a structured narrative review with a systematic, auditable workflow, we identified 719 eligible reports representing 705 independent studies. Of these, 473 provided controlled comparative evidence: 322 formally published studies formed the primary synthesis and 151 preprint-only studies a sensitivity layer. Adaptation was organized into five non-mutually exclusive families: parameter-level, representation-level, objective-level, data-centric, and architectural/sequence-level adaptation, with model use and update regime analyzed separately. Controlled comparisons showed no consistent ranking among frozen, parameter-efficient, partial, or full updating, or across broader adaptation families; outcomes varied by task, data regime, comparator, and evaluation setting. Clinical-readiness evidence remained limited: 173/705 studies (24.5\%) had confirmed independent external validation, 10 (1.4\%) reported calibration or uncertainty evidence, and 97/322 formally published comparative studies (30.1\%) included a qualifying externally validated arm. Overall, FM adaptation is a context-dependent design space rather than a hierarchy of preferred strategies.

FMC-DETR: Frequency-Decoupled Multi-Domain Coordination for Aerial-View Object Detection

Ben Liang, Hongguang Wei, Yuan Liu, Bingwen Qiu, Yihong Wang, Xiubao Sui, Qian Chen

原文摘要

Remote sensing object detection is a critical technology for real-world applications such as natural resource monitoring, traffic management, and UAV-based rescue. Detecting tiny objects in high-resolution aerial imagery remains challenging due to weak visual cues and insufficient global context modeling in complex scenes. Existing methods often suffer from delayed contextual interaction and limited nonlinear reasoning, which restrict their ability to effectively refine shallow representations and ultimately lead to suboptimal performance. To address these challenges, we propose FMC-DETR, a frequency-decoupled fusion framework for aerial-view object detection. First, we propose the Wavelet Kolmogorov-Arnold Transformer (WeKat) backbone, which employs cascaded wavelet transforms to enhance global low-frequency structure perception in shallow features while preserving fine-grained details, and further leverages Kolmogorov-Arnold networks for adaptive nonlinear modeling of multi-scale dependencies. Second, we introduce the Multi-Domain Feature Coordination (MDFC) module, which refines cross-scale fused representations through partial-channel spatial, spectral, and structural coordination, thereby strengthening small-object-related feature responses in cluttered scenes. Finally, we design the Compact Partial Fusion (CPF) module, which performs compact multi-branch aggregation with progressive partial refinement to improve feature diversity and multi-scale interaction while preserving stable information flow and reducing redundant perturbation. Extensive experiments across multiple remote sensing benchmarks demonstrate that FMC-DETR achieves state-of-the-art performance and significantly outperforming the baseline detector. Code is available at https://github.com/bloomingvision/FMC-DETR.

SceneAgent: An Agentic Pipeline from 3D and 4D Captures to Simulation Environments

Luke Hollis, Tianxing Fan, Heng Yang

原文摘要

Visual captures provide detailed scene appearance, but converting them into interactive simulation environments requires object reconstruction, physical modeling, and correction of intermediate errors. We present SceneAgent, an agentic pipeline that coordinates these steps through simulator-based visual inspection and repair. The pipeline processes 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS), photogrammetry, LiDAR captures, AI-generated 3DGS scenes, and 4D videos of dynamic scenes, and combines object segmentation, physical parameter estimation, part decomposition, articulation, and deformable simulation. To support policy learning, SceneAgent generates diverse object variants ("digital sisters") and scripted demonstrations. On a cluttered bin scene from GraspClutter6D, SceneAgent raises F1 at 1 cm for every coding agent with scorable outputs both with and without its skills, and its reconstructions are better than SimFoundry: all agent configurations exceed SimFoundry's F1 score, with a best of 60.75% versus 6.9%. On three dynamic scenes from 4DCodeBench, SceneAgent raises the mean dynamic IoU of Gemini 4 Argon from 0.86% to 99.09%. We further demonstrate diverse simulated interactions and preliminary policy transfer to a real robot.

From Sentinel-2 to 1-m Imagery: Real-World $\times 10$ Cross-Sensor Super-Resolution via Visual Autoregressive Modeling

Tailai Chen, Yuluxin Fu, Jie Deng, Shu Luo, Yanan Wu, Danfeng Hong

原文摘要

Reconstructing 1-m imagery from Sentinel-2 combines two difficulties. The input and the reference are observed by different satellites, which differ in spatial resolution, spectral response, radiometry, acquisition time, and local geometry, so no synthetic degradation operator links them. The required magnification of ten in each spatial dimension also far exceeds the factors of two to four at which remote sensing super-resolution is usually developed. We study this real-world $\times 10$ problem using YREB-SR, which pairs 2022 Sentinel-2 RGB composites with 2022 Jilin-1 RGB references resampled to a 1-m grid over the Yangtze River Economic Belt. The benchmark contains 11,559 geographically matched scene pairs, with 6,409, 2,135, and 3,015 assigned to training, validation, and testing, respectively. We develop CrossVAR, a visual autoregressive model that predicts the 1-m latent as a nine-scale hierarchy conditioned on the Sentinel-2 input and estimates the remaining quantization residual with a diffusion refiner run without injected noise. Complete 1600 $\times$ 1600 scenes are reconstructed in overlapping windows that start on the Sentinel-2 pixel grid, as every training patch does, and every window is decoded at the size on which the decoder was trained before the windows are blended with Gaussian weights. On all 3,015 test scenes, CrossVAR achieves 27.60 dB PSNR, 0.7725 SSIM, 0.1451 LPIPS, and 7.15 FID, the best value of each metric among the compared methods. These results establish a strong autoregressive baseline for large-scale cross-sensor reconstruction. To facilitate reproducibility, the source code and implementation are publicly available at https://github.com/SHANOAL/RSSR.

FlatVPR: Plug-and-play Geo-linear Residual Adapter for Geometric Rectification of Foundation Model Feature Manifolds

Rai Hisada, Kanji Tanaka

原文摘要

This paper proposes ``FlatVPR,'' a novel geometric rectification paradigm that effectively bridges the trade-off between map lightweightness and localization accuracy in visual place recognition (VPR) by enforcing a feature manifold structure where any descriptor between two adjacent anchors $\mathbf{z}_A$ and $\mathbf{z}_B$ can be accurately reconstructed via linear interpolation $\hat{\mathbf{z}}_{pseudo} = (1-t)\mathbf{z}_A + t\mathbf{z}_B$, where $t \in [0,1]$ denotes the relative position. While state-of-the-art foundation models such as DINOv2-ViT-S/14 provide robust semantic features, their latent manifolds exhibit prominent curvature, projecting uniform linear motion in physical space onto highly non-linear trajectories in the feature space, which hinders reliable reconstruction under sparse anchor conditions. To enable the aforementioned interpolation-based reconstruction, we introduce a residual transformation $\hat{\mathbf{z}} = \mathbf{z} + \text{Res}(\mathbf{z})$ to the raw foundation features $\mathbf{z}$, where $\text{Res}(\cdot)$ represents a learnable adapter. Our method explicitly suppresses manifold curvature using a mathematically grounded Pullback Flatness Loss that minimizes the deviation of intermediate features from the linear segment connecting adjacent anchors, thereby minimizing the intrinsic curvature of the manifold. Through this spatial flattening, map construction is formulated within an Expectation-Maximization (EM) framework, decoupled into a continuous M-step for manifold adaptation and a conceptual E-step for optimal anchor selection guidelines. Experiments on the NCLT dataset demonstrate that the application of our adapter leads to significant performance improvements even under extremely sparse anchor conditions with 100m intervals and extreme seasonal changes.

FGD2HF: Frequency-guided Dual-domain Hypergraph Fusion for Semantic Segmentation

Xiaofan Yang, Wei Pan, Yubin Liu, Junyu Wu, Junming Zhang, Jie Zhao

原文摘要

Frequency-domain information is beneficial for semantic segmentation. However, existing frequency-based methods often suffer from insufficient frequency utilization, inefficient fusion, and high computational complexity. To address these issues, we propose FGD2HF, a dual-domain fusion network that leverages frequency features to guide spatial-domain fusion and enhancement. Specifically, we introduce a novel Hybrid-Attention Encoder (NAHA) that jointly models local and global relationships through neighborhood and hypergraph attention, enhancing the network's ability to extract effective features. We further introduce a Wavelet Transform and Enhancement (WTE) module to extract and refine low- and high-frequency cues from preceding-stage features, followed by Frequency-guided Dual-domain Fusion (FGDF) modules that use frequency cues to condition current-stage spatial grouping and feature propagation. This design incorporates both global and local frequency guidance into spatial feature modulation, enhancement and fusion with low computational cost. Extensive comparisons with numerous state-of-the-art semantic segmentation methods demonstrate that our method is highly competitive. Our full FGD2HF-B model achieves 48.7% mIoU on ADE20K (+0.3% over SegMAN-B with 18% fewer GFLOPs), 83.2% mIoU on Cityscapes (comparable to SegMAN-B with 21% fewer GFLOPs), and 1.1% higher mIoU than VWFormer-T on SBD with 21% fewer GFLOPs, while also achieving significant improvements in boundary segmentation accuracy.

Catalogue-Grounded Multimodal Attribution for Museum Video under Resource and Regulatory Constraints

Minsak Nanang, Adrian Hilton, Armin Mustafa

原文摘要

Museum audiovisual archives are important records of visual culture, yet in-gallery video remains difficult to search because it lacks catalogue-compatible metadata. We propose CaGMulA, catalogue-grounded multimodal attribution for museum video: a locally deployable pipeline that combines video-language models, structured catalogue retrieval, and abstention-aware decision policies. The system summarises visible artworks, generates catalogue-style descriptions, and attributes title and artist only when evidence is sufficient. We evaluate VideoLLaMA2 and Qwen2-VL across four model configurations and four attribution modes on 18 in-gallery videos. Open-ended generation fails under conservative conditions, producing 0\% coverage across models. By contrast, closed-set catalogue retrieval reaches 100\% coverage with 62\% accepted title--artist correctness, while a verifier-gated hybrid mode reduces coverage to 50\% but improves accepted correctness to 78\%. The results show that reliable museum-video attribution is driven less by unrestricted generation than by catalogue grounding, visual retrieval, and selective abstention for curatorial review.

STATIC: Surface-normal-guided Two-branch Alignment and Temporal Integration for Consistent Video Depth Estimation

Sunghun Yang, Minhyeok Lee, Suhwan Cho, Jungho Lee, Sangyoun Lee

原文摘要

Video depth estimation is essential for applications such as autonomous driving, AR/VR, and robotics. Recent transformer-based single-image monocular depth estimation models perform well on a single image but struggle with depth consistency across video frames. Traditional methods aim to improve temporal consistency using multi-frame temporal modules or explicit priors like optical flow and camera parameters. However, these approaches face issues such as high memory use, reduced performance with dynamic or irregular motion, and a heavy reliance on the accuracy of external motion estimators. We propose STATIC, a novel model that independently learns temporal consistency in geometrically stable and unstable regions using only two adjacent frames. By leveraging intrinsic geometric cues rather than external motion priors, STATIC generates a depth-derived geometry-aware difference mask from surface normals to identify regions with inter-frame geometric variation by measuring directional variance. For geometrically stable regions, the Masked Stable (MS) module enhances temporal consistency by focusing on structurally stable regions. For geometrically unstable regions, the Surface Normal Similarity (SNS) module models inter-frame correspondences and ensures temporal consistency by measuring feature similarities between frames. A final refinement integrates the independently learned stable and unstable features, enabling STATIC to improve consistent depth prediction across consecutive frames. Experiments on KITTI, NYUv2, and Sintel demonstrate strong depth accuracy and temporal consistency, as well as stable performance across the tested frame-rate and camera-motion conditions.

AutoWorld: Learning Multi-Agent Traffic Simulation with Self-Supervised World Models

Mozhgan Pourkeshavarz, Tianran Liu, Nicholas Rhinehart

原文摘要

Simulation with realistic traffic agents is essential for validating autonomous driving systems. Existing data-driven simulators learn agent behavior from higher-level abstractions such as 3D bounding boxes and polylines, inferred by upstream perception pipelines. These lossy abstractions discard sensory context that directly shapes agent behavior, limiting the distributional realism that simulation aims to reproduce. To address this limitation, we propose AutoWorld, a traffic simulation framework that grounds agent behavior in raw sensor observations through a self-supervised world model trained on LiDAR occupancy data. Given world model samples, AutoWorld constructs a coarse-to-fine predictive scene context as input to a multi-agent motion generation model. Furthermore, we designed a motion-aware latent supervision objective that enriches AutoWorld's latent representation of scene dynamics. To better exploit this latent space during inference, AutoWorld employs a cascaded Determinantal Point Process framework to guide diversity-aware sampling across both the world model and motion model. Experiments on nuPlan and Waymo demonstrate that AutoWorld improves generation realism, with larger gains in partially observed scenarios where trajectory abstractions are most limited, reducing collision rates by 36%. AutoWorld also remains physically plausible under planner-controlled ego behavior and supports controllable, diverse safety-critical scenario generation.

Query-adaptive Recurrent Tokenization

Bavesh Balaji, Pranav Gopinath, Pouya Sadeghi, Sirisha Rambhatla

原文摘要

Visual information worth extracting from an image and the token budget it warrants depend on the text query. Yet modern vision and vision-language models largely encode images independently of the query and allocate a fixed visual token budget to every input. We introduce the Query-Adaptive Recurrent Tokenizer (QART), a backbone-agnostic module that makes visual representations both query-steerable and budget-adaptive. QART steers the visual representation toward query-relevant evidence while adapting its token budget to the amount of information required. Its key principle is simple. Additional tokens are allocated until the visual features relevant to the query are represented with sufficient fidelity. Starting from frozen encoder features, QART recurrently constructs a compact representation and uses reconstruction quality over the query-relevant visual support to control token allocation. On Visual7W and VQAv2, QART achieves 81.96% and 76.37% accuracy using only about 29 visual tokens, reducing token counts by 20-25x relative to dense VLM inputs. It further reaches 92.0% P@1 on CORE and 36.3% PR-AUC on PODS, outperforming SteerViT on PODS by 8.4%. Together, these results show that visual representations need not be fixed in either content or capacity and can instead adapt to what each query requires.

RSKD: Grounding Semantic Consistency in Driving VLMs via Distillation

Chuchu Xie, Yang Zhong, Kangan Qian, Hao Ye, Kun Jiang, Diange Yang

原文摘要

Knowledge distillation can transfer large multimodal models to compact models for autonomous driving, but uniform token-level matching can dilute planning-relevant semantics and amplify teacher errors. We propose RSKD, a semantic-consistency-guided distillation framework that routes supervision according to both the task importance of an answer phrase and its semantic consistency with the teacher prediction. Task-critical semantic phrases are localized in the ground-truth answer, and a phrase-level consistency score controls the balance between Jensen--Shannon divergence (JSD) distillation and ground-truth supervision. Teacher information is emphasized only where it is semantically consistent, while semantically inconsistent phrases receive stronger ground-truth supervision. We evaluate RSKD on DrivingVQA, LingoQA, and MapLMv2. RSKD improves over the compared student-based baselines on DrivingVQA and LingoQA and remains competitive on MapLMv2.

From Speech Tokens to Stolen Voices: Attacker-Chosen-Text Speaker Impersonation via Representation Inversion

Ye Lu, Shen Wang, Runze Liu, Zhitao Ou, Haonan Huang, Yihan Yan, Fanghui Sun, Zhaoyang Zhang

原文摘要

Speech interaction systems have gradually evolved from traditional cascaded systems that use text as intermediate information to end-to-end speech language models that directly process speech representations. In some applications, the speech frontend runs on the user's device and sends speech representations to a remote server for inference, while the original audio remains local. However, these representations may still contain speaker identity information. If an attacker obtains them, it may use this information to imitate the user's voice, threatening their voice privacy. To investigate this risk, we propose \stia, a Speech Token Inversion Attack that generates speech with attacker-specified text in a victim's voice using a single short leaked representation, without access to the original audio or its transcript. Specifically, \stia converts discrete, continuous, or mixed speech representations into conditioning sequences and trains a conditional flow-matching speech generation model using pairs of different utterances from the same speaker in public speech datasets. The model combines speaker characteristics contained in the leaked representation with the specified text to generate speech in the victim's voice. Experiments show that, with a Moshi representation leak corresponding to 3 seconds of speech, \stia achieves an average CAM++ speaker cosine similarity of 0.78 and a target-text word error rate of 3.80\%. These results show that speech frontend representations reveal reusable speaker identity information and highlight the need to consider privacy risks when designing speech frontend representation methods.

Good Rankings, Poor Choices? Rethinking Language-Only Vision-Language Model Selection

Hyuk Kwon, Jaebyeong Jeon, Hyeonseo Jang, Kibok Lee

原文摘要

Language-Only Vision-Language Model Selection (LOVM) aims to identify the Vision-Language Model (VLM) with the highest zero-shot accuracy on a target task using only textual information. We revisit the existing LOVM evaluation protocol and argue that ranking metrics, such as top-5 recall and Kendall's rank correlation, do not directly assess the performance of the selected model. We therefore adopt simple regret (SR), defined as the performance gap between the best and selected models, and introduce Outlier-Robust Normalized Regret (ORNR) to account for the varying performance ranges across tasks while reducing sensitivity to outliers. Building on this revised evaluation protocol, we propose Target-Conditioned Expected Source Regret (TC-ESR), a training-free method that selects the model with the lowest similarity-weighted mean regret across source tasks. Across 22 target tasks and 43 VLMs, TC-ESR achieves the lowest mean SR and ORNR among all compared methods. Separately, we identify two sources of target performance leakage in the prior ranking-based evaluation protocol and provide corrections that remove both.

Exploring perceptual straightness in learned visual representations

Anne Harrington, Vasha DuTell, Ayush Tewari, Mark Hamilton, Simon Stent, Ruth Rosenholtz, William T. Freeman

原文摘要

Humans have been shown to use a "straightened" encoding to represent the natural visual world as it evolves in time (Hénaff et al. 2019). In the context of discrete video sequences, "straightened" means that changes between frames follow a more linear path in representation space at progressively deeper levels of processing. While deep convolutional networks are often proposed as models of human visual processing, many do not straighten natural videos. In this paper, we explore the relationship between network architecture, differing types of robustness, biologically-inspired filtering mechanisms, and representational straightness in response to time-varying input; we identify strengths and limitations of straightness as a useful way of evaluating neural network representations. We find that (1) adversarial training leads to straighter representations in both CNN and transformer-based architectures but (2) this effect is task-dependent, not generalizing to tasks such as segmentation and frame-prediction, where straight representations are not favorable for predictions; and nor to other types of robustness. In addition, (3) straighter representations impart temporal stability to class predictions, even for out-of-distribution data. Finally, (4) biologically-inspired elements increase straightness in the early stages of a network, but do not guarantee increased straightness in downstream layers of CNNs. We show that straightness is an easily computed measure of representational robustness and stability, as well as a hallmark of human representations with benefits for computer vision models.

FOCUS: Benchmarking Retinal Model Generalization from Foundation Vision Encoders to Multimodal LLMs

David Restrepo, Chenwei Wu, Luis Filipe Nakayama, Miguel L. Martins, Stergios Christodoulidis, Maria Vakalopoulou, Enzo Ferrante

原文摘要

Progress in AI-based retinal image analysis has accelerated with the adoption of foundation models, yet evaluating their real-world reliability remains challenging. Performance reported on a single dataset does not capture how models behave under dataset shift, across clinical definitions, or for different patient subgroups. This limitation is particularly critical in medical imaging, where robustness, calibration, and fairness are essential for safe deployment. We introduce FOCUS (Foundation Ophthalmic Cross-Dataset Understanding under Shift), a cross-dataset benchmark evaluating retinal fundus models across vision-only encoder models (VM), vision-language dual-encoder models (VLM), and multimodal large language models (MLLM). FOCUS harmonizes binary diabetic retinopathy, referable diabetic retinopathy, and glaucomatous optic neuropathy tasks across ten public datasets spanning diverse geographies, acquisition conditions, and label protocols. The benchmark evaluates models through a unified analysis layer that measures ranking performance, calibration, subgroup disparities, and image-quality robustness. We present a large-scale evaluation covering 532 base configurations and 228 MLLM configurations adapted via LoRA fine-tuning. Results show no model family consistently dominates across tasks and datasets: general VM encoders achieve the strongest average ranking performance, medical MLLMs are competitive but variable, and dual-encoder VLMs benefit substantially from lightweight adaptation. Fine-tuning improves in-domain performance but exhibits heterogeneous transfer to external datasets, particularly in calibration. FOCUS provides a practical framework and public benchmark to assess generalization, reliability, and robustness beyond single-dataset leaderboards.

Benchmarking Obstacle-Conditioned Safety in Household Robot Navigation

Hyunwoong Bae, Jisu Han, Jiyeon Choi, Dohoon Kim, Taesup Moon

原文摘要

Safe household navigation requires robots to regulate clearance and speed according to what an obstacle is and how close it is, without unnecessary conservatism. Yet existing evaluations do not test whether semantic safety distinctions are reflected in continuous motion. To that end, we introduce OSMA-Bench, an Obstacle-Conditioned Safe Motion Adaptation Benchmark built on spatially matched scenario sets that differ only in obstacle type. We also propose the \emph{Semantic Sensitivity Index} (SSI), which measures whether clearance and distance-dependent speed and smoothness follow the caution ordering of obstacles. Evaluating VLM-based and vision-language-action (VLA) policies on the benchmark, we find that neither consistently adapts its motion to obstacle safety, even with explicit safety prompts. Our analysis shows that the policies can correctly distinguish obstacles by safety relevance but fail to reflect this distinction in the motion parameters or actions they produce. For VLM-based policies, which recognize the obstacle and then generate a navigation program, adding an explicit parameter-inference step between these two stages improves adaptation. These findings expose a gap in \emph{semantic-to-motion grounding}, highlighting the need to translate semantic caution into appropriately safe motion.

ManiFusion: Unlocking the High-Throughput Generation via Superposition in Manifold Space

Minkyu Kim, Baekseung Kim, Junhoo Lee, Jangho Kim, Nojun Kwak

原文摘要

Diffusion models achieve high-quality image generation but remain computationally expensive due to iterative denoising across many timesteps. Existing acceleration methods mainly reduce per-sample latency, but gains along this axis are becoming saturated. We instead explore an orthogonal throughput-oriented direction by processing multiple samples within a single denoising evaluation. To this end, we propose ManiFusion, a backbone-agnostic framework for multi-sample generation through fused-space computation. ManiFusion jointly processes multiple samples by fusing them before the denoising backbone and separating them afterward through unfusion. We provide a geometric perspective on how multiple samples can share a fused representation while retaining the information needed to guide their individual generation trajectories. To better align fusion allocation with denoising stages, ManiFusion uses Trajectory-Fusion Scheduling (TFS), which dynamically adjusts fusion factors throughout sampling. ManiFusion generalizes across diffusion families, including both U-Net and transformer backbones in pixel and latent spaces. We further show that ManiFusion composes with existing acceleration methods and reaches throughput regimes unattainable by prior approaches with minimal quality degradation.

Video World Models Need Predictable Latents

Mattia Scardecchia, Sherry Yang

原文摘要

Video world models trained on large-scale robot data promise a safe and scalable approach for learning and evaluating policies that act in the physical world. However, they still struggle with long-horizon rollouts and out-of-distribution generalization, and they remain computationally demanding at inference time. Typically, video world models make predictions in the latent space of a reconstruction-trained autoencoder, which however is not directly optimized for dynamics modeling. On the other hand, world models designed for latent planning usually optimize latents to be predictable, but they forgo accurate prediction of observations in pixel space. In this paper, we show that it is possible to achieve the best of both worlds: a latent geometry optimized to make future prediction as simple as possible without sacrificing accurate prediction of future observations. More precisely, we find that temporal objectives for representation learning, paired with a past-conditioned decoder architecture, lead to consistent improvements in generative video world models at the same training budget. The gains include up to 5x cheaper inference, over 7x faster training, and 15-24% lower pixel and perceptual errors out of distribution and over long horizons. Our world models also agree more closely with real-world policy evaluation when using a vision-language model to judge task success from their pixel-space predictions. Overall, our study indicates that temporal predictability is an important design criterion for the latent space of video world models, and provides concrete guidance on how to incorporate it into the training of autoencoders.

H-GRPO: Permutation-Invariant Reinforcement Learning for Improving Spatial Grounded Reasoning

Eric Peh, Debaditya Roy, Chen Li, Basura Fernando

原文摘要

Vision-language models (VLMs) have achieved strong performance on visual reasoning tasks, yet a correct final answer does not necessarily imply that the model followed a correct or visually grounded reasoning process. We study how VLMs can be trained to produce explicit intermediate reasoning steps that are both semantically meaningful and grounded in visual evidence. We represent each reasoning step as a structured triplet consisting of a sub-question, sub-answer, and supporting bounding box, enabling the reasoning process to be evaluated along both semantic and spatial dimensions. To optimize this representation, we introduce Hungarian-GRPO (H-GRPO), a reinforcement-learning framework that aligns predicted and reference reasoning steps using permutation-invariant Hungarian matching, avoiding the assumption that valid reasoning steps must follow a fixed ordering. Experiments show that optimizing grounded reasoning improves both intermediate reasoning quality and answer accuracy, with an H-GRPO variant achieving the strongest overall grounding and decomposition performance. Our analyses show that grounding quality and answer correctness are related but distinct, while counterfactual evidence masking confirms that the localized regions contain information important to the model's predictions. These findings motivate evaluating VLMs beyond answer accuracy and demonstrate the value of explicit, spatially grounded reasoning.

原文摘要

Background The combination of hematoma location, expansion and final volume influence neurological outcome. The aim of this study was to derive and validate a quantitative and interpretable region-based NCCT image feature model for predicting hematoma expansion. Methods The Ethnic/Racial Variations of Intracerebral Hemorrhage(ERICH) study was used for derivation and the Virtual International Trials in Stroke Archive(VISTA) was used for validation. NCCT images at presentation and 24+/-6hours were pre-processed, segmented and categorized into lobar, basal ganglia or thalamic regions. Hematoma expansion was defined by region and according to its effect on clinical outcome. Transport-based morphometry (TBM) produced a unique transport-based representation from each NCCT hematoma image. Linear classifiers applied to transport representations were used to derive a predictive model. The regional TBM model's performance was compared to alternate methods using AUROC analyses. Results The derivation dataset included 574 patients, comprising 162 lobar, 257 basal ganglia and 155 thalamic hematomas. The validation dataset included 196 patients, comprising 31 lobar, 119 basal ganglia and 46 thalamic hematomas. A combined regional model predicted hematoma expansion in the validation dataset with an AUROC of 0.787. The principal image features which varied by location were size, heterogeneity, eccentricity and density distribution towards the hematoma periphery. The regional TBM model outperformed alternative clinician based and machine-learning methods. Conclusions TBM discriminated and visualized regional features of hematoma expansion from presentation NCCT scans. This provides preliminary evidence for regional radiographic features of hematoma expansion. It has the potential to improve hematoma expansion prediction and understanding of hematoma expansion pathophysiology.

ReMATF: Recurrent Motion-Adaptive Multi-scale Turbulence Mitigation for Dynamic Scenes

Zhiming Liu, Zhicheng Zou, Nantheera Anantrasirichai

原文摘要

Atmospheric turbulence severely degrades video quality by introducing distortions such as geometric warping, blur, and temporal flickering, posing significant challenges to both visual clarity and temporal consistency. Current state-of-the-art methods are based on 3D architectures and require multi-frame input, but their large computational cost and memory usage limit real-time deployment. Here, we propose ReMATF, a lightweight recurrent framework that restores videos using only two frames at a time while preserving spatial detail and temporal stability. ReMATF combines a multi-scale encoder-decoder with temporal warping and a motion-adaptive temporal fusion module that performs per-pixel fusion between the warped previous output and the current prediction to enhance coherence without enlarging the temporal window. This design reduces flicker, sharpens details, and remains efficient. Experiments on synthetic and real turbulence datasets show consistent improvements in PSNR(+2.83 dB), SSIM(+0.05) and LPIPS(-0.048), along with substantially faster inference, making ReMATF suitable for turbulence mitigation in resource-constrained scenarios.

Masked and Predictive Self-Supervised Pretraining for Brain MRI: Effects of Objective Design on Disease Detection

Esra Ergün, Hersh Chandarana, Dan Sodickson, Gozde Unal

原文摘要

MRI self-supervised learning (SSL) has largely emphasized segmentation and dense prediction, while controlled studies of how alternative pretraining objectives shape transferable representations for MRI-based disease detection remain limited. We compare reconstruction-based Masked Autoencoders (MAE) and latent-predictive Joint Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPA) for 3D structural MRI. We further introduce a spectral-domain reconstruction loss for MAE to promote sensitivity to fine-grained anatomical structure and integrate variance-covariance regularization (VCR) into JEPA to encourage broader, less redundant latent representations. Models are pretrained on heterogeneous MRI datasets using individual single-contrast inputs. Across seven dataset-task settings spanning four clinical problem domains, downstream transfer depends on both the pretraining paradigm and how the representational bias induced by a specific objective aligns with the downstream task. Spectral regularization provides its clearest gains for Alzheimer's disease classification and tumor grading, while its benefit is smaller for NC vs. MCI and ASD. VCR yields its strongest improvements when discrimination appears to involve multiple sources of structural variation. Overall, MAE-based pretraining generally outperforms baseline JEPA, with SL-MAE providing the strongest gains in several disease-detection settings. Representation analyses show that fine-tuning reorganizes learned representations in an objective-, depth-, and task-dependent manner. VCR-JEPA maintains broader effective dimensionality across depth and greater cross-task representational alignment than baseline JEPA. We publicly release subject-level pretraining and downstream evaluation splits.
