Leaderboards, eval harnesses and ablations — the contested business of deciding which model is actually better.
arXiv:2607. 01870v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Camouflaged Object Detection (COD) aims to locate and segment objects that blend into their surroundings, presenting challenges due to weak edge cues and ill-defined boundaries.
arXiv:2607. 02423v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Active Few-Shot Learning (AFSL) adapts LLMs to specialized domains by identifying the most valuable unlabeled samples for annotation and use as few-shot demonstrations, effectively reducing human annotation costs while promoting high performance.
arXiv:2607. 01813v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Evaluation benchmarks are essential for assessing vision-language models (VLMs), but most multimodal benchmarks are static, making them vulnerable to temporal staleness, data contamination, and costly maintenance.

arXiv:2607. 02185v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning has achieved remarkable performance in medical image segmentation, yet it suffers from critical limitations: mathematical intractability, substantial parameter requirements, and lack of clinical interpretability.
arXiv:2607. 01305v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) are essential for monitoring network traffic and identifying malicious activities in modern cyber-physical, Internet of Things (IoT), enterprise, and distributed network environments.
arXiv:2607. 01754v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: On-policy exploration is a crucial component for training robust Vision-Language Navigation agents, as it exposes the policy to a broader state distribution.
arXiv:2607. 01474v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Class imbalance poses a critical challenge in federated learning (FL), where underrepresented classes suffer from poor predictive performance yet cannot be addressed by standard centralized techniques due to privacy and heterogeneity constraints.
arXiv:2607. 01661v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-agent systems are increasingly used for forecasting future events, as deliberation among multiple LLMs is believed to improve reasoning and calibration.
arXiv:2607. 01303v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) serves as a crucial safeguard for face recognition systems against presentation attacks such as printed photos, replayed videos, and 3D masks.
arXiv:2607. 01280v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Programming-by-example systems infer programs from a small set of input-output examples.
arXiv:2607. 01272v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying 3D point cloud analysis in privacy-sensitive, resource-constrained settings faces two barriers: data cannot be centralized, and models must run on limited edge hardware.
arXiv:2607. 01897v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce Rank-Then-Act (RTA), a framework for learning control policies from expert video demonstrations without environment rewards.
Post-training large language models (LLMs) without real-world interaction feedback or human-labeled supervision remains challenging, particularly in specialized domains where expert annotations are costly to obtain. Recent annotation-free self-evolution methods address this by using the model's own outputs as supervision signals, constructing a teacher via additional context and aggregating predictions across multiple rollouts through majority voting to produce pseudo-labels.
Zero-shot composed image retrieval (ZS-CIR) aims to retrieve a target image by editing a reference image with a natural-language instruction, without relying on domain-specific annotated triplets. Most existing ZS-CIR methods rely on textual inversion to translate the reference image into pseudo-text tokens and then compose them with the instruction via simple concatenation in the text space, which can be lossy and brittle for fine-grained semantics.
Vein recognition is a secure biometric technology often constrained by limited annotated data and imaging variations. While data augmentation mitigates this, strategies designed for natural images may disrupt the fine-grained topology and textures essential for identity discrimination.
Recent advancements in LiDAR-only 3D object detection have demonstrated improved detection accuracy over benchmark datasets. However, the adversarial robustness of these models remains untested.
Anomaly detection is a critical and evolving field in Machine Learning, with applications targeting different domains such as cybersecurity, finance, healthcare, manufacturing and IoT (Internet of Things) systems. Traditionally, anomaly detection algorithms have been designed using both supervised and unsupervised learning paradigms.
Low-voltage load forecasting is an important component in current and future energy systems with a high degree of electrification and decentralized generation. However, current forecasting methods require significant manual effort, often lack uncertainty estimation and proper peak prediction, and they are often not adequately evaluated in terms of grid requirements.
Neural TTS systems can sound natural across languages, but naturalness does not guarantee the preservation of sound contrasts that distinguish words from their grammatical forms. Standard metrics like MOS do not test for this.
