arXiv:2606. 03093v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Prompting steers large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs) without weight updates, but it remains unclear how instruction changes reshape internal representations to produce behavior.
arXiv:2511. 16107v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Visual in-context learning (VICL) solves visual tasks by conditioning on a few input-output demonstrations without any model training.
arXiv:2606. 09287v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding how transformer representations evolve across layers, not merely what they encode, remains an open problem in mechanistic interpretability.
arXiv:2507. 18043v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Inference-time steering methods offer a lightweight alternative to fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs) by modifying internal activations at test time without updating model weights.
arXiv:2607. 03358v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study how visual information is routed in vision-language models (VLMs).
arXiv:2606. 08682v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Activation steering has emerged as a popular inference-time technique for modulating the behavior of large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2607. 03738v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) generate responses autoregressively, integrating visual and linguistic information in an evolving context.
arXiv:2606. 31719v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In collaborative dialogue, shared perception does not guarantee shared interpretation.
arXiv:2607. 16214v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Image descriptions represented with language models (LMs) predict human brain responses to naturalistic images in high-level visual regions, but the factors driving this predictivity remain unclear.
arXiv:2604. 22027v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: One of the most common complaints about large language models (LLMs) is their prompt sensitivity -- that is, the fact that their ability to perform a task or provide a correct answer to a question can depend unpredictably on the way the question is posed.
arXiv:2604. 17473v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-Language Navigation(VLN) requires an agent to navigate through 3D environments by following natural language instructions.
arXiv:2607. 14635v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Action supervision in vision-language-action (VLA) models is often treated as a downstream objective for learning action prediction.
arXiv:2606. 17924v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models face a trade-off between efficient action generation and explicit deliberation.
