Leaderboards, eval harnesses and ablations — the contested business of deciding which model is actually better.
Training-free few-shot adaptation methods have gained significant attention recently in the context of Vision-language Models (VLMs). Yet, current benchmarks rely on strong assumptions about the statistics of the adaptation data, e.
This study systematically benchmarks different data augmentation setups across YOLO26 model size variants to determine the most effective setup for adenovirus detection in TEM images. The benchmarked setups include NAS, GAS, GMAS and DAS, all evaluated under identical training conditions.
Egocentric devices, such as wearable front-facing cameras, provide a unique perspective for capturing the continuous interaction between a human viewer and the surrounding environment. A holistic and efficient multimodal model capable of reconstructing this 4D representation is therefore highly desirable.
Class-agnostic 3D instance segmentation is critical for robotic systems operating in unknown environments, enabling perception of previously unseen objects for reliable manipulation and navigation. Existing approaches typically project per-frame 2D instance masks into 3D and merge them, which often breaks object identities across time and yields fragmented 3D instances.
In logistics automation, precise segmentation of unseen objects is crucial for efficient robotic manipulation in cluttered environments. Tasks such as bin-picking and shelf-picking require robust perception to handle occlusions, varying object shapes, and complex spatial arrangements.
Coordinating payload transfers between subsystems is a critical challenge in lifelong Multi-Agent Pickup and Delivery (MAPD). We study systems where agents are confined to separate regions and must exchange payloads through shared handover stations.
Block-wise diffusion large language models (dLLMs) decode sequentially at the block level, enabling effective KV-cache reuse across blocks but making inter-block decoding strictly serial. Prior work has attempted to unlock inter-block parallelism through post-training methods, but achieves only modest speedups and often degrades accuracy.
Accurate protein-ligand binding affinity prediction is central to computational drug discovery, yet modern docking engines frequently disagree without indicating which prediction to trust. Consensus scoring and ensemble methods improve mean accuracy but treat all predictions identically without interpretable confidence measures or uncertainty decomposition, ignoring the chemical context of each protein-ligand pair.
Class Incremental Learning (CIL) aims to learn new concepts consistently from a data stream without forgetting. Unlike typical CIL methods which need to learn a model from scratch, pre-trained model (PTM) can easily adapt to a new task with fine-tuning.
Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search (ANNS) plays a pivotal role in modern deep learning pipelines. Recently, many ANNS systems have been proposed to either provide broad functionality or reach high performance.
Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) is a powerful reinforcement learning algorithm for aligning generative models with human preferences. While successful in large language models~\cite{shao2024deepseekmathpushinglimitsmathematical}, its extension to diffusion and flow matching models introduces a severe computational bottleneck: gradients must be back-propagated through the high-capacity DiT backbone at \emph{every} timestep of the sampling trajectory, making high-resolution text-to-image (T2I) training prohibitively expensive.
Structured pruning compresses large language models (LLMs) by removing whole computational units, such as attention heads and feed-forward (FFN) channel groups. Most training-free methods, however, rank these units independently, implicitly treating the loss from pruning a set as the sum of its individual losses.
