arXiv:2607. 15047v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mild Cognitive Impairment is a critical early stage of cognitive decline that frequently precedes Alzheimer's disease, yet its automated detection from neuropsychological drawing tests remains fundamentally constrained by data scarcity, class imbalance, and diagnostic ambiguity near clinical boundaries.

Brain-to-image retrieval seeks to identify the visual stimulus that elicited a non-invasive neural response. Candidate images are typically represented by pretrained vision models, whose internal repr...
arXiv:2509. 23876v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autoregressive (AR) models based on next-scale prediction have emerged as a powerful tool for image generation, but they face a critical weakness: information inconsistencies between patches across timesteps introduced by progressive resolution scaling.

Recent advancements in MLLM-based long-form video understanding have mitigated inference-time computational cost and limited context lengths by selecting query-relevant frames. However, existing approaches predominantly rely on external proxy scorers and rigid heuristic rules, inevitably suffering from misalignment with the target MLLM's intrinsic evidence and failing to accommodate the non-uniform spatiotemporal information density.
The paper introduces EvoPrompt, a framework for adapting vision‑language models to new tasks with limited data while preventing catastrophic forgetting. EvoPrompt uses a Modality‑Shared Prompt Projector to create hierarchical prompts and an evolutionary training strategy that separates low‑rank updates into directional and magnitude components, preserving learned semantic directions. Experiments show that EvoPrompt achieves state‑of‑the‑art few‑shot performance while maintaining the original zero‑shot capabilities of the pre‑trained models.
