When Does Consensus Mean Correctness? Measuring the Agreement-Accuracy Coupling with Semantics-Preserving Re-Rendering

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2608. 05670v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A model's agreement across perturbed inputs is used both as a label-free reliability signal and as a self-training target, on the premise that agreement tracks correctness.

RECAP: Relation Evidence Calibration for Detecting Spatial Relation Hallucinations in Vision-Language Models

arXiv:2609.26093v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-language models can answer spatial relation questions confidently even when the image supports an incompatible relation. We formulate relation-g...

A Cross-Model VLM-Judge Protocol for Single-Image 3D Mesh Quality (and Why Cheap Proxies Fall Short)

arXiv:2606. 18451v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Single-image-to-3D generators are improving quickly, but there is no agreed, human-free way to tell whether one generated mesh is better than another.

Interaction Scaling: Grounding the Third Axis of Test-Time Compute

arXiv:2607. 11598v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: There are two standard ways to spend more compute at test time: let a model reason longer, or sample more attempts and keep one.

Decomposition of Evidence, Contradiction, and Fragility in Perturbation Responses

arXiv:2608. 12935v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Perturbation methods explain model decisions by measuring prediction changes under altered inputs, but response magnitude tells us only how much a model reacts, not what that reaction means.
