Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis may benefit from gut metabolic information associated with brain-gut interactions, yet existing models largely analyze cerebral glucose metabolism alone. Although whole-body fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) can provide paired brain-gut observations, routine brain examinations rarely include gut imaging, limiting direct use of this information for diagnosis. In this paper, we present BRIDGE (Brain and Gut Representation Integration via Distribution-Guided Enhancement), a two-stage framework for transferring brain-gut metabolic knowledge to brain-only diagnosis. Specifically, BRIDGE integrates a conditional brain-to-gut latent transport module and a disease-evidence-guided cerebral pathway to capture subject-specific cross-organ correspondence and disease-relevant cerebral representations. For the cerebral pathway, a large language model (LLM) helps organize literature-derived descriptors into human-approved semantic anchors that guide feature learning. Additionally, we introduce a counterfactual-guided residual fusion mechanism, which uses matched and non-matched virtual-gut evidence to supervise a confidence gate and dynamically regulate the contribution of transported cross-organ information. At inference, BRIDGE exploits complementary gut-related context using brain PET alone, without measured gut PET. Extensive experiments across public and private cohorts demonstrate that BRIDGE outperforms brain-only and cross-organ baselines, achieving AUC gains of 6.0% and 5.2% over its brain-only counterpart for CN/MCI and CN/AD diagnosis, respectively. Notably, its ability to transfer complementary brain-gut metabolic context while preserving brain PET as the sole inference input highlights its potential for clinically practical diagnosis.

Diffusion video models produce striking clips, but they cannot reliably render an exact formula, a correct chart, a rule-consistent game or narration synchronized to on-screen events. A different route is emerging: multimodal agents that write code to render every frame and synthesize every sound. We introduce VibeVideoBench, a benchmark for evaluating agents on code-driven video generation. Its 239 self-contained tasks in English and Chinese span 12 categories, from data stories and music-driven pieces to classroom lessons and paper explainers; each asks an agent, running in its native harness inside a sandbox with no image or video generation model, to deliver a finished MP4 with sound within one hour. Evaluation is hierarchical and evidence-based: program checks of the delivery spec, about 13k task-specific rubric checks traced to the requirements they enforce, and five quality dimensions anchored per task, scored by three VLM judge panels. Across nine frontier agent systems and 2,151 scored rollouts, GPT-6 Astra and Claude Opus 5.5 rank first and second with both the judges and human annotators, and the strongest system satisfies every core requirement on 76.3% of tasks. Delivery is a second axis: counting missing videos as zero changes the ranking, and three quarters of the lost videos are final renders that started too late, ran too slowly or never started, a failure of how agents plan their hour. Agents build their own rendering pipelines and inspect their own frames, yet how much they look does not predict quality. The judges' ranking of the systems closely matches blind human preferences.

Visual hallucination remains a major obstacle to the reliability of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs). We argue that this issue originates from a fundamental statistical misspecification: the conventional softmax attention implicitly assumes i.i.d. noise, yet real LVLM attention patterns exhibit structured and competitive biases (e.g., attention sinks) that violate this assumption. To address this mismatch, we introduce Latent Attention Denoising (LAD), a principled and training-free framework that recasts attention calibration as a one-step score-based denoising process. LAD employs an interpretable energy function to derive an analytic score and applies a single Langevin-inspired update to actively steer corrupted attention logits toward more faithful configurations. This intervention imposes negligible computational overhead and operates at a speed comparable to standard greedy decoding. Extensive evaluations across diverse architectures confirm that LAD achieves superior performance on both generative and discriminative tasks, effectively mitigating hallucinations while maintaining efficiency comparable to standard decoding.
