Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection aims to identify samples that deviate from in-distribution (ID). One popular pipeline addresses this by introducing negative labels distant from ID classes and detecting OOD based on their distance to these labels.However, such labels may present poor activation on OOD samples, failing to capture the OOD characteristics. To address this, we propose \underline T est-time \underline A ctivated \underline N egative \underline L abels (TANL) by dynamically evaluating activation levels across the corpus dataset and mining candidate labels with high activation responses in the testing process. Specifically, TANL identifies high-confidence test images online and accumulates their assignment probabilities over the corpus to construct a label activation metric.Such a metric leverages historical test samples to adaptively align with the test distribution, enabling the selection of distribution-adaptive activated negative labels. By further exploring the activation information within the current testing batch, we introduce a more fine-grained, batch-adaptive variant. To fully utilize label activation knowledge, we propose an activation-aware score function that emphasizes negative labels with stronger activations, boosting performance and enhancing its robustness to the label number.Our TANL is training-free, test-efficient, and grounded in theoretical justification. Experiments on diverse backbones and wide task settings validate its effectiveness.Notably, on the large-scale ImageNet benchmark, TANL significantly reduces the FPR95 from 17.5% to 9.8%.Codes will be released.

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have recently emerged, demonstrating strong generalization in robotic scene understanding and manipulation. However, when confronted with long-horizon tasks that require defined goal states, such as LEGO assembly or object rearrangement, existing VLA models still face challenges in coordinating long-horizon planning with precise manipulation.Therefore, we aim to endow a VLA model with the capability to infer the "how" process from the "what" outcomes, transforming goal states into executable procedures. In this paper, we introduce ManualVLA, a unified VLA framework built upon a Mixture-of-Transformers (MoT) architecture, enabling coherent collaboration between multimodal manual generation and action execution. Unlike prior VLA models that directly map sensory inputs to actions, we first equip ManualVLA with a planning expert that generates intermediate manuals consisting of images, visual prompts, and textual instructions. Building upon these multimodal manuals, we design a Manual Chain-of-Thought (ManualCoT) reasoning process that feeds them into the action expert, where each manual step provides explicit control conditions, while its latent representation offers implicit guidance for accurate manipulation. To alleviate the burden of data collection, we develop a high-fidelity digital-twin toolkit based on 3D Gaussian Splatting, which automatically generates manual data for planning expert training. ManualVLA demonstrates strong real-world performance, achieving an average success rate 32% higher than the previous hierarchical SOTA baseline on LEGO assembly and object rearrangement tasks.

Foundation models have transformed vision and language by learning general-purpose representations from large-scale unlabeled data, yet 3D medical imaging lacks analogous approaches. Existing self-supervised methods rely on low-level reconstruction or contrastive objectives that fail to capture the anatomical semantics critical for medical image analysis, limiting transfer to downstream tasks. We present MASS (MAsk-guided Self-Supervised learning), which treats in-context segmentation as the pretext task for learning general-purpose medical imaging representations. MASS's key insight is that automatically generated class-agnostic masks provide sufficient structural supervision for learning semantically rich representations. By training on thousands of diverse mask proposals spanning anatomical structures and pathological findings, MASS learns what semantically defines medical structures: the holistic combination of appearance, shape, spatial context, and anatomical relationships. We demonstrate effectiveness across data regimes: from small-scale pretraining on individual datasets (20-200 scans) to large-scale multi-modal pretraining on 5K CT, MRI, and PET volumes, all without annotations. MASS demonstrates: (i) few-shot segmentation on novel structures, (ii) matching full supervision with only 20-40% labeled data while outperforming self-supervised baselines by over 20 in Dice score in low-data regimes, and (iii) frozen-encoder classification on unseen pathologies that matches full supervised training with thousands of samples. Mask-guided self-supervised pretraining captures broadly generalizable knowledge, opening a path toward 3D medical imaging foundation models without expert annotations.
