VectraYX-Vision-1B: A Sub-2B Spanish/LATAM Cybersecurity Vision-Language Model with Structured Visual Reasoning and Native Tool Use

We present VectraYX-Vision-1B, a sub-2B vision-language model (VLM) for Spanish/LATAM cybersecurity imagery, coupling a frozen SigLIP-so400m encoder to a 1. 04B Spanish/LATAM security decoder via an MLP.

Recover, Decode, Reguard: Guard-Agnostic Defense Amplification againstEncoded VLM Jailbreaks

arXiv:2607. 26574v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Safety classifiers ("guards") are the dominant black-box defense for vision-language models, yet they judge an input's surface form, not its meaning: a harmful request re-encoded as set theory, formal logic, a rare language, code, or an image of text slips past a guard that would block it in plain language -- the decode gap.

CLOSER-VLN: Closed-Loop Self-Verified Retrieval-Augmented Reasoning for Aerial Vision-Language Navigation

arXiv:2606. 28397v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language navigation (VLN) has recently advanced with large language and multimodal models, enabling agents to follow natural-language instructions in unseen environments without training a task-specific navigation policy.

UniProbe: A Learnable Token-Level Hallucination Detector for Large VLMs using Multi-Structural Internal Representations

arXiv:2608. 10835v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) achieve impressive visual reasoning and dialogue capabilities, yet frequently hallucinate content unsupported by the visual input.

CoTinyVLA: Chain-of-Thought Distillation for a Sub-Billion-Parameter Vision-Language-Action Model

arXiv:2607. 25487v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models translate natural-language commands into robot action sequences, but leading systems on the LIBERO-Plus robustness benchmark use three- to seven-billion-parameter backbones whose memory demands can exceed embedded robotic budgets.

WildRoadBench: A Wild Aerial Road-Damage Grounding Benchmark for Vision-Language Models and Autonomous Agents

arXiv:2605. 20306v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce WildRoadBench, a wild aerial road-damage grounding benchmark that couples direct visual grounding by vision-language models with autonomous research-and-engineering by LLM-driven agents on a single professionally annotated UAV corpus.

Visual Access Boundaries in Vision-Language Model Reasoning

arXiv:2607. 12815v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting is widely used as a test-time scaling strategy for Vision-Language Models (VLMs), but it remains unclear what is extended when VLMs generate longer reasoning traces.
