Brain-IT-VQA: From Brain Signals to Answers

arXiv:2605. 29588v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Decoding visual content from fMRI signals recorded while a person views images, and specifically answering questions about the seen images, is a long-standing challenge.

AVIS: Adaptive Test-Time Scaling for Vision-Language Models

arXiv:2606. 11576v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern Vision-Language Models (VLMs) benefit from chain-of-thought prompting and test-time scaling, but these gains often come with prohibitive inference cost due to large visual contexts and long decoding chains.

TokenRatio: Principled Token-Level Preference Optimization via Ratio Matching

arXiv:2605. 12288v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) is a widely used RL-free method for aligning language models from pairwise preferences, but it models preferences over full sequences even though generation is driven by per-token decisions.

Are LLMs Bad at Moral Reasoning?

arXiv:2606. 11635v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: For highly capable AI systems to operate safely in dynamic, open-ended environments, they must be able to identify, understand, and respond to moral reasons for action, and constrain their behaviour accordingly.
