The paper introduces the concept of Squint Text—text embedded in an image’s coarse structure that multimodal LLMs often miss but humans can read by squinting. It presents SquintBench, a dataset of 1,076 moderation images, and SquintCtrl, a synthetic suite for diagnosing the issue. The authors show that spatial selection is a key bottleneck and propose Squint OPSD, a training method that uses a downscaled teacher view and privileged transcription to supervise a student model, achieving a significant performance boost on SquintBench.
The paper introduces SphereTrust, a method that uses frozen self‑supervised hyperspherical features to evaluate and rank candidate masks produced by foundation segmenters like SAM. By measuring angular contrast, foreground coverage, and image‑frame contact, SphereTrust can select high‑quality masks in 0.55 s per image and outperforms existing baselines on multiple segmentation tasks. The selected masks are then used as priors to train student models, improving performance on several benchmark datasets.
