arXiv:2503. 09399v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large-scale image classification datasets exhibit strong compositional biases: objects tend to be centered, appear at characteristic scales, and co-occur with class-specific context.
The paper introduces the concept of information density to explain category bias in visual object detection. It finds a strong negative correlation between a category’s information density and its detection accuracy, showing that instance count alone does not account for bias. By incorporating information density into three advanced loss functions, the authors demonstrate significant bias reduction and overall performance gains on Pascal VOC, COCO‑LT, and LVIS datasets.

arXiv:2604. 02327v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pretrained Vision Transformers (ViTs) such as DINOv2 and MAE provide generic image features that can be applied to a variety of downstream tasks such as retrieval, classification, and segmentation.
ProCAP introduces a probabilistic cross-attentive prompt learning framework for vision-language models like CLIP, enabling improved cross-modal interaction without updating the backbone. It jointly learns visual and textual prompt tokens, linking them via stacked bidirectional multi-head cross-attention to refine each branch across prompt depth. The method incorporates Gaussian parameterization of prompt tokens, lightweight KL and L2 regularization, and a compact symmetric InfoNCE head to align image features with class-level text representations, achieving strong few-shot base-to-novel performance and competitive transfer results across multiple datasets and benchmarks.

Background-Free Objectness Learning (B-FOR) is a dense, class‑agnostic detection framework that learns objectness without treating unlabeled regions as background. It predicts multi‑scale object‑center and scale fields, using spatially structured soft targets to supervise only reliable annotated areas and introduces displacement‑aware scale fields to model object extent. Experiments on PASCAL VOC, MS‑COCO, and Open Images show B‑FOR improves recall by over +10 AR points compared to prior class‑agnostic baselines, with ablation studies confirming the importance of localized supervision and displacement‑aware scaling.
