arXiv:2606. 26529v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI safety is evaluated by how reliably a model detects the hazards it is told to find, yet accidents often arise from the hazard no one specified.
arXiv:2606. 02443v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Between the first visible sign of danger and the moment an accident occurs, there is often a window where intervention remains possible.
arXiv:2607. 00218v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are now proposed as runtime safety guards for embodied agents in homes and factories.
arXiv:2607. 18325v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern safety-critical systems increasingly rely on human-robot interaction to reduce disaster risk and support decision-making during emergencies.
arXiv:2603. 29759v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in vision-language models (VLMs) have accelerated their application to indoor safety hazards assessment.
arXiv:2606. 26874v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) planning requires meticulous multimodal reasoning.
arXiv:2606. 05177v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing multimodal safety benchmarks focus solely on visual inputs and cannot assess Omni Large Language Models (LLMs) that process vision, audio, and text.
arXiv:2606. 03954v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As AI systems increasingly assist humans in physical tasks, ensuring safety becomes paramount -- physical actions carry immediate and irreversible consequences that digital errors do not.
arXiv:2607. 22745v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Rapid advances in image generation are eroding the evidentiary value of visual content in settings where authenticity can affect public safety and personal reputation.
arXiv:2607. 16165v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human vision is a closed loop: gaze is continuously redirected by intermediate hypotheses rather than a single snapshot.
As AI systems increasingly assist humans in physical tasks, ensuring safety becomes paramount -- physical actions carry immediate and irreversible consequences that digital errors do not. We introduce the Vision-Language Embodied Safety Agent (VLESA), a framework that monitors human activities from egocentric video and triggers real-time safety interventions when dangerous actions are predicted.
arXiv:2607. 17786v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Does adding a reasoning step make a Vision-Language-Action (VLA) model more robust to perturbation?
Assessing proxemic danger from a robot's egocentric perspective is critical for safe embodied navigation in human environments and requires both visual and contextual reasoning. We evaluate three opensource vision-language models (VLMs) (\textit{InternVL}, \textit{Qwen-VL}, and \textit{SmolVLM}) on the classification of egocentric robot images into four danger levels, comparing three prompting strategies and two rounds of QLoRA fine-tuning against a stratified random baseline.
