FSD-VLN: Fast-Slow Dual-System Modeling for Aerial Long-Horizon Vision-Language Navigation

Vision-Language Navigation (VLN) enables UAV autonomous navigation in unknown environments by mapping language instructions to real-time visual inputs. Compared with GPS-dependent or pre-programmed navigation, VLN supports intuitive human-machine interaction and stronger environmental adaptability, requiring tight integration of high-level semantic reasoning and low-latency flight control.

Understanding Axes of Difficulty For Long Context Tasks Via PredicateLongBench

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated rapidly improving long-context capabilities, prompting a wave of benchmarks designed to evaluate them. However, existing long-context evaluations - from Needle-in-a-Haystack (NIAH) tests to more recent multi-hop reasoning and summarization tasks - predominantly measure average-case performance, and many are either saturated or lack robustness.

LUMI: Tokenizer-Agnostic LLM-Based Lossless Image Compression

Large language model (LLM)-based lossless image compression methods typically represent pixel data through the native text interface of a pretrained model, converting pixel values into token sequences that the LLM processes through its vocabulary head. This design shows that pretrained language models can provide probability estimates for image coding, but it also couples compression to tokenizer behavior, vocabulary-specific numeric tokens, and model-family-specific adaptation.

Continual Test-Time Adaptation in Computer Vision: Methods, Benchmarks, and Future Directions

Deep neural nets achieve remarkable performance when training and test data share the same distribution, but this assumption frequently breaks in real-world deployment, where data undergoes continual distributional shifts. Continual Test-Time Adaptation (CTTA) addresses this challenge by adapting pretrained models to non-stationary target distributions on-the-fly, without access to source data or labeled targets, while mitigating two critical failure modes: catastrophic forgetting of source knowledge and error accumulation from noisy pseudo-labels over extended time horizons.

GemNav: Discrete-Token Visual Robot Navigation using a Multimodal Large Language Model

arXiv:2607. 06882v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Visual navigation policies built on large pretrained models have so far followed a common recipe: a dedicated visual encoder, a bespoke action head, and training on thousands of hours of cross-embodiment datasets.

Latent graph encoding of multimodal neuroimaging features with generative AI architectures

arXiv:2607. 07027v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While generative models enable encoding of complex neuroimaging data for feature generation and reconstruction, developing optimal architectural frameworks with appropriate encoding and latent space processes is crucial for studying structural and functional properties of the brain.

Towards Understanding Steering Strength

arXiv:2602. 02712v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A popular approach to post-training control of large language models (LLMs) is the steering of intermediate latent representations.
