InternW0-Δ is a unified World Action Model that integrates pretrained visual dynamics, scene semantics, 4D geometry, and motion priors within a Mixture-of-Transformers framework to generate robot actions. It leverages a frozen VLM for semantic guidance, a 4D foundation model for geometric priors, and introduces Causal Imprint to learn future-relevant scene changes without future-video rollout. The model is pretrained on a newly curated 20K‑hour heterogeneous corpus of robot and human demonstrations, achieving superior performance on simulation benchmarks and real‑robot platforms.
The paper investigates anomaly detection in high-energy physics by learning low-dimensional representations of collision events. Using supervised and self-supervised neural embeddings on a large simulated dataset, the authors find that supervised objectives generally outperform self-supervised ones and improve signal efficiency compared to traditional kinematic-feature autoencoders. They also propose a local diagnostic pipeline that models the Standard Model latent space with a Gaussian Mixture Model, profiles components via high-level observables, and ranks these observables by their local discriminating power, thereby linking anomaly scores to specific kinematic features.
The paper introduces CaC, a coarse‑to‑fine anomaly reward model that uses Vision‑Language Models to first scan globally for anomalous time windows, then ground anomalies spatially, and finally reason with structured spatiotemporal Chain‑of‑Thought. It builds the first large‑scale generated video anomaly dataset with detailed annotations and trains the model through a three‑stage progressive paradigm, including reinforcement learning with Group Relative Policy Optimization. Experiments show CaC improves fine‑grained anomaly detection by 25.7% and reduces generated‑video anomalies by 11.7% while enhancing overall video quality.
The paper introduces Future‑L1, an interleaved latent visual reasoning framework that alternates between language tokens and continuous latent visual spans during autoregressive decoding for video event prediction. By training on a curated dataset (Future‑L1‑50K) and optimizing latent trajectories with a latent‑aware RL objective (LA‑DAPO), Future‑L1 achieves state‑of‑the‑art results on FutureBench and TwiFF‑Bench, outperforming prior models by significant margins. The work demonstrates that preserving intermediate visual semantics in latent space, rather than verbalizing every reasoning step, leads to more accurate and visually grounded future predictions.
Autoregressive video generation has emerged as a powerful paradigm for World Action Models (WAMs). However, existing approaches suffer from slow training convergence and limited converged accuracy, particularly at high frame rates, as the training supervision is confined to the current chunk without explicit signals about future dynamics; they also suffer from slow inference due to iterative video denoising.
Cog-VADU is a training‑free framework that transforms video anomaly detection into a sequential cognitive reasoning task. It uses Chain‑of‑Anomaly Detection Thought Prompting (CoADTP) to create a recurrent reasoning chain across video segments, preserving temporal memory and distinguishing complex anomalies from high‑motion normal activities. A cross‑modal re‑ranking stage aligns textual rationales with visual embeddings to enforce semantic consistency and temporal coherence, yielding competitive zero‑shot performance on multiple VAD benchmarks.
The paper investigates whether detailed articulated human pose provides more discriminative power than coarse spatial relationships for early violence detection. By fixing the downstream pipeline and comparing five interaction representations—including bounding‑box geometry, handcrafted pose analogues, enriched pose descriptors, and a learned joint encoder—the study finds that pose‑based representations do not outperform coarse geometry. When visual encoders are frozen and evaluated on larger datasets, person‑crop appearance and whole‑frame context outperform geometry, but cropping to interacting people offers no advantage over encoding the entire frame. The authors further demonstrate that pre‑onset frames contain source‑related artifacts (e.g., title cards, watermarks) that contribute significantly to discrimination, suggesting that benchmark performance may reflect these artifacts rather than true event evidence.
