An Anatomy-guided 3D Segmentation Pipeline for Prostate Surgical Phantoms from CT Scans

Iven Chen, Kuan-I Chung, Ayberk Acar, Susheela Sharma Stern, Alejandro O. Chara, Jie Ying Wu, Daniel Moyer

原文摘要

Full autonomy has been a long-term goal in robotic surgery and a near-to-medium-term goal for prostatectomy. Due to the relatively closed structure of the procedure, its standard-of-care robotic/laparoscopic solutions, and procedure economics, prostate procedures are an optimal early target for surgical automation. Prototyping and testing of possible solutions is done in constructed laboratory phantoms, either synthetic tissues or animal phantoms. To enable measurement of perceptual and robotic motion error, phantoms undergo volumetric imaging; these images are critical to both a potential deployed automatic system, used in planning motion and treatment (cutting, ablation, suturing, etc.), as well as post-hoc assessment of system performance. Rapid iteration on these phantom models yields small, inconsistent datasets, while the current workflow for human annotation is often anatomically unreliable and prohibitively time-consuming, rendering deep learning unsuitable at reasonable scales. To address these limitations, we present an automated 3D segmentation pipeline that uses classical medical image-processing techniques to encode the known anatomy of the phantoms as explicit geometric and intensity priors, which requires no training corpus and is transferred to each new phantom revision without re-annotation. Across 57 scans spanning multiple phantom revisions, our pipeline recovers the capsule interior at 0.83 median Dice on 11 contrast-suppressed scans and detects all 32 annotated focal lesions without false positives, completing a full scan in 2-8 minutes on commodity CPU hardware versus 1-2 hours by hand.

No Note Is an Island: Probing LLMs' Understanding of Crowdsourced Fact-Checking Environments

Weijian Fan, Chichen Lin, Xiao Han, Jiaying Wu

原文摘要

Large language models (LLMs) increasingly assist crowdsourced fact-checking, yet evaluations focus on individual annotations. A correction's reach and reception depend on visibility, audience responses, and platform policies. We introduce correction context understanding: assessing corrective content, interpreting audience responses, and reasoning about platform dynamics within a shared environment. We build NoteHabitat from 36 months of Weibo Annotations data, linking 102,994 posts (42,853 annotations), 431,407 comments, and five policy events. Evaluating diverse model families across seven tasks spanning content, interaction, and management reveals three gaps. Annotation quality correlates only weakly with engagement ($ρ=0.068$), while four zero-shot LLMs systematically underrate quality relative to human judgments, especially evidence support and objectivity. Models also miss toxic comments supporting corrections (36.4% average recall across ten models). At the platform level, LLMs partially predict policy-associated outcome directions, but LLM-guided simulations poorly reproduce daily activity. Cross-group analyses expose blind spots tied to contribution types and reader stances that aggregate scores conceal. Reliable fact-checking AI must understand the note, the conversation around it, and the platform in which both unfold.

SimForcing: Distilling Simulation Motion Priors into Real-Domain Robot World Models

Xiaodong Wang, Tianle Li, Chuanxin Song, Junliang Xie, Zhanmi Zhong, Suiying Wu, Peixi Peng

原文摘要

Action-conditioned robot world models must respond precisely to robot trajectories while preserving realistic visual dynamics, yet learning both from heterogeneous robot videos remains challenging. Simulation offers structured motion supervision, but appearance differences hinder direct transfer, and inaccurate simulation predictions can misguide real-video generation. We present SimForcing, a simulation-guided framework that uses simulation both as a source of transferable motion knowledge and as a controllable reference for prediction. First, we transfer motion knowledge from a simulation teacher through latent-motion distillation, aligning temporal changes in latent space to internalize motion priors while mitigating the influence of appearance differences. Second, we introduce multi-block simulation conditioning with condition dropout to exploit predicted simulation trajectories without relying excessively on their accuracy. Our simulation-conditioning classifier-free guidance scheme unifies these two ideas by balancing predictions based on internalized motion knowledge with those additionally guided by simulation latents. The jointly trained student generates both simulation conditions and real-domain videos, requiring no additional world model at inference. On Bridge, SimForcing achieves the best PSNR, SSIM, LPIPS, and FVD among the compared methods without external embodied pretraining. Evaluation on InternData-A1 further supports its applicability across robot datasets. Moreover, using our trained world model to initialize a vision-language-action model improves LIBERO success, suggesting its utility for downstream policy learning. https://github.com/Wang-Xiaodong1899/SimForcing

When Platforms Pay Users to Correct Misinformation: Revenue Incentives and Governance Capacity in Weibo Annotations

Chichen Lin, Huaijin Xie, Wenhan Xie, Weijian Fan, Xiao Han, Yijie Jin, Xiaojie Hao, Jiaying Wu

原文摘要

Crowdsourced misinformation governance systems such as Community Notes and Weibo Annotations depend on sustained corrective labor. How monetary incentives shape participation and subsequent governance outcomes remains poorly understood. We conduct a mixed-methods study of Weibo Annotations, analyzing 102,994 posts and 431,407 comments from 2023--2026, alongside interviews with 15 contributors. We find concentrated corrective labor, limited observed display, and weak quality--engagement alignment. Policy introduction was associated with sharp increases in contributor participation and annotation production. Model-assisted quality followed its expected trajectory, evidence for additional display growth was inconclusive, and engagement per annotation fell below expectation. Public discussions and interviews reveal substantial verification demands, difficult-to-interpret review processes, uneven platform knowledge, and gaps in contributor protection. We identify four recurring bottlenecks in governance orchestration: participation, review, reach, and protection. Effective incentive design therefore depends on whether platforms can support these downstream processes as corrective labor expands.

Beyond Perturbation Magnitude: Direction-Dependent Responses in Multimodal Geometric Representations

Yongsheng Luo, Wengan He, Yu Li, Rouying Wu, Wei Lv

原文摘要

Geometric alignment scores based on Gram determinants provide a compact way to model higher-order consistency among modalities, yet how such scores respond to modality degradation is poorly understood. This paper asks whether the response of a multimodal geometric score is determined primarily by the magnitude of the perturbation-induced displacement. Using frozen cohorts from MSR-VTT (N=878) and DiDeMo (N=980), we apply controlled video blur and audio noise and analyze the response in the relational geometry on which the score is defined. Displacement magnitude explains at most 15% of the out-of-sample variance in the absolute response, and magnitude-matched pairs respond systematically differently, so scalar magnitude does not organize the response. The closed-form first-order expansion of the Gramian volume yields the Directional Geometric Response (DGR): the projection of the displacement onto the local volume gradient, which jointly captures the clean operating point, displacement magnitude, and displacement direction. The absolute first-order DGR term explains the observed response with out-of-sample R^2 of 0.838-0.969, matched-magnitude ranking accuracies of 0.864-0.963, and response-sign accuracies of 0.909-0.989, whereas the tested direction-free alternatives remain weak or unstable under the corresponding evaluation protocols. A pre-specified gain-normalization candidate, V/(g_V+eps), fails its predictability and clean-order gates. DGR uses the observed degraded-state displacement and is therefore an explanatory quantity, not a deployment-time predictor: geometric response depends on where the representation operates, how far degradation moves the relational geometry, and in which direction it moves.

VC-Inspector: Advancing Reference-free Evaluation of Video Captions with Factual Analysis

Shubhashis Roy Dipta, Tz-Ying Wu Intel, Subarna Tripathi Intel Corporation

原文摘要

We propose VC-Inspector, a lightweight, open-source large multimodal model (LMM) for reference-free evaluation of video captions, with a focus on factual accuracy. Unlike existing metrics that suffer from limited context handling, weak factuality assessment, or reliance on proprietary services, VC-Inspector offers a reproducible, fact-aware alternative that aligns closely with human judgments. To enable robust training and interpretable evaluation, we introduce a systematic approach for generating captions with controllable errors, paired with graded quality scores and explanatory annotations. Experiments show that VC-Inspector achieves state-of-the-art correlation with human judgments, generalizing across diverse domains (e.g., VATEX-Eval, Flickr8K-Expert, and Flickr8K-CF benchmarks) and revealing the potential for caption improvement.

From Detection to Understanding: Multi-Turn Reasoning for Video Misinformation Analysis

Zhi Zeng, Jiaying Wu National University of Singapore, Minnan Luo Xi'an Jiaotong University, Di Zhang, Yifei Yang, Xiangzheng Kong, Herun Wan, Zihan Ma

原文摘要

Video misinformation detection is often approached as a binary veracity classification problem, overlooking the complex reasoning required to explain how and why content misleads. Existing benchmarks fail to capture the diversity of manipulation strategies, such as AI-generated edits and out-of-context manipulation, and do not evaluate whether models can provide process-level justifications for their judgments. We address these limitations with MisVideoQA, a multi-turn benchmark designed to assess comprehensive understanding and reasoning in video misinformation analysis. MisVideoQA covers 12 fine-grained deception categories and evaluates models along six dimensions, progressing from perceptual attribution to intent and persuasion analysis. Recognizing that standard MLLMs struggle to sustain such structured, evidence-based deduction, we propose MisAgent, a Delphi-inspired multi-agent framework in which specialized agents collaboratively integrate multimodal cues with external evidence. Experimental results show that state-of-the-art multimodal large language models perform poorly on MisVideoQA, while MisAgent consistently improves reasoning accuracy and explanation quality. Together, our benchmark and framework establish a unified foundation for reliable, interpretable, and evidence-grounded video misinformation analysis.

Beyond the Crowd: LLM-Augmented Community Notes for Governing Health Misinformation

Jiaying Wu National University of Singapore, Zihang Fu National University of Singapore, Haonan Wang, Fanxiao Li, Jiafeng Guo Institute of Computing Technolgy, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Preslav Nakov Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence, Min-Yen Kan National University of Singapore

原文摘要

Community Notes, the crowd-sourced misinformation governance system on X (formerly Twitter), allows users to flag misleading posts, attach contextual notes, and rate the notes’ helpfulness. However, our empirical analysis of 30.8K health-related notes reveals substantial latency, with a median delay of 17.6 hours before notes receive a helpfulness status. To improve responsiveness during real-world misinformation surges, we propose CrowdNotes+, a unified LLM-based framework that augments Community Notes for faster and more reliable health misinformation governance. CrowdNotes+ integrates two modes: (1) evidence-grounded note augmentation and (2) utility-guided note automation, supported by a hierarchical three-stage evaluation of relevance, correctness, and helpfulness. We instantiate the framework with HealthNotes, a benchmark of 1.2K health notes annotated for helpfulness, and a fine-tuned helpfulness judge. Our analysis first uncovers a key loophole in current crowd-sourced governance: voters frequently conflate stylistic fluency with factual accuracy. Addressing this via our hierarchical evaluation, experiments across 15 representative LLMs demonstrate that CrowdNotes+ significantly outperforms human contributors in note correctness, helpfulness, and evidence utility.

What’s Left Unsaid? Detecting and Correcting Misleading Omissions in Multimodal News Previews

Fanxiao Li, Jiaying Wu National University of Singapore, Tingchao Fu, Dayang Li, Herun Wan, Wei Zhou Yunnan University, Min-Yen Kan National University of Singapore

原文摘要

Even when factually correct, social-media news previews (image-headline pairs) can induce interpretation drift: by selectively omitting crucial context, they lead readers to form judgments that diverge from what the full article supports. This covert harm is subtler than explicit misinformation, yet remains underexplored. To address this gap, we develop a multi-stage pipeline that simulates preview-based and context-based understanding, enabling construction of the MM-Misleading benchmark. Using MM-Misleading, we systematically evaluate open-source LVLMs and uncover pronounced blind spots in omission-based misleadingness detection. We further propose OMGuard, which combines (1) Interpretation-Aware Fine-Tuning for misleadingness detection and (2) Rationale-Guided Misleading Content Correction, where explicit rationales guide headline rewriting to reduce misleading impressions. Experiments show that OMGuard lifts an 8B model’s detection accuracy to the level of a 235B LVLM while delivering markedly stronger end-to-end correction. Further analysis shows that misleadingness usually arises from local narrative shifts, such as missing background, instead of global frame changes, and identifies image-driven cases where text-only correction fails, underscoring the need for visual interventions.

XtraGPT: Context-Aware and Controllable Academic Paper Revision via Human-AI Collaboration

Nuo Chen National University of Singapore, Andre Lin HuiKai National University of Singapore, Jiaying Wu National University of Singapore, Junyi Hou National University of Singapore, Zining Zhang National University of Singapore, Qian Wang, Xidong Wang, Bingsheng He National University of Singapore

原文摘要

Despite the growing adoption of large language models (LLMs) in academic workflows, their capabilities remain limited in supporting high-quality scientific writing. Most existing systems are designed for general-purpose scientific text generation and fail to meet the sophisticated demands of research communication beyond surface-level polishing, for example, maintaining conceptual coherence across sections. Furthermore, academic writing is inherently iterative and revision-driven, a process that is not well supported by direct prompting-based paradigms. To address these scenarios, we propose a human-AI collaboration framework for academic paper revision, centered on criteria-guided intent alignment and context-aware modeling. To validate the framework, we curate a dataset of 7,000 research papers from top-tier venues, annotated with 140,000 instruction–response pairs that reflect realistic, section-level scientific revisions. We instantiate the framework in XtraGPT, the first suite of open-source LLMs (1.5B to 14B parameters) specifically fine-tuned for context-aware academic paper revision. Extensive experiments show that XtraGPT significantly outperforms same-scale baselines and rivals the quality of proprietary counterparts. Both automated preference assessments and human evaluations confirm the effectiveness of XtraGPT in improving scientific drafts. Our code and models are available at https://github.com/Xtra-Computing/XtraGPT and https://huggingface.co/collections/Xtra-Computing/xtragpt.
