MAViE: A Multi-scale Adaptive Vision Encoder for Fine-grained Visual Perception and Efficient Multimodal Reasoning

Vision-language models commonly project all tokens produced by a pretrained vision encoder into a large language model. However, final-layer features can discard text, local attributes, and spatial relationships, while high-resolution inputs substantially increase context length and inference latency.

NeuronEye: Query-Guided Visual Concept Activation for Vision-Language Reasoning

NeuronEye is a plug‑in framework that builds a sparse, concept‑level neuron vocabulary from intermediate vision‑language model (VLM) representations and selectively activates query‑relevant visual concepts during inference. It decomposes vision‑token states into an overcomplete sparse basis organized by concept clusters, uses the language query to activate relevant clusters, localizes the corresponding image patches, and injects the focused evidence back into the vision tokens, while a suppression mechanism attenuates dominant perceptual directions. Experiments on Qwen2.5‑VL‑7B and LLaVA‑1.6‑7B show that NeuronEye improves CV‑Bench overall accuracy by +3.1, boosts Distance by +9.5, and raises BLINK Multi‑view by +8.3, indicating that sparse neuron vocabularies can act as active interfaces for concept‑level visual reasoning.

Foundation Models for Generalizable Semantic and Goal-Oriented Communication

The paper introduces FMSGOC, a framework that leverages visual‑linguistic foundation models to improve semantic and goal‑oriented communication for 6G. By transmitting a sparse set of semantic anchors and using a pretrained diffusion model for masked completion, it reduces overfitting and achieves high rate efficiency, reaching 0.039 BPP while maintaining strong semantic fidelity and robustness on unseen data.
