arXiv:2607. 00858v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Contrastive pre-training has propelled video-text alignment, yet models often inherit the critical limitations of their image-text predecessors like CLIP, resulting in entangled representations.

arXiv:2608. 05683v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cross-modal alignment of visual and textual representations is fundamental to multimodal medical image understanding, yet remains hindered by uncertainty in both modalities under real-world clinical conditions.

DuoMatching is a new framework for few-step video generation that extends distribution matching distillation by adding a joint‑marginal formulation. It introduces a marginal matching objective that uses an image generator to provide frame‑level supervision, and employs LatentBridge to align latent representations between the video student and image teacher. Latent Variation Sampling distributes this supervision across temporal segments, improving visual quality, composition, and semantic alignment while preserving motion dynamics, with human evaluations favoring it over baselines.

arXiv:2606. 10010v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Evaluating text-to-music (TTM) systems remains expensive because music impression (MI) and text alignment (TA) scores rely on human mean opinion scores (MOS).

arXiv:2606. 00583v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent diffusion transformers have demonstrated strong image synthesis capabilities but remain inefficient to train due to weak alignment between generative and discriminative representations.
