Multi-Layer Context Camouflaging: A Semantic Superposition and Contextual Lamination Framework for Malpractice-Resilient Online Assessment

arXiv:2608. 13100v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Contemporary online assessment systems rely primarily on browser lockdown, webcam monitoring, and behavioural analytics, yet remain vulnerable to attacks that extract the assessment content itself through screenshots, screen sharing, optical character recognition, and automated scraping.

Mr3D-VL: A generalist vision language foundation model for Multiparametric 3D Magnetic Resonance Imaging

arXiv:2608. 12689v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is a cornerstone for brain tumor diagnosis and treatment, yet current AI models face critical limitations: their lack of natural language interaction and interpretability impedes spatial information integration and cross-modal reasoning required clinically.

The Role of Natural Language Understanding in Multimodal Video-Based Dengue Diagnosis

arXiv:2608. 12677v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Detecting infection-related behavioral changes in mosquitoes from video data is challenging because mosquitoes are small, move rapidly and irregularly, and are affected by environmental factors such as background, lighting, and shadows, which can make reliable feature extraction difficult.

How Do VLMs Behave When Blind or Misled? Behavioral Evaluation of VLMs on Scientific Figures

arXiv:2608. 13267v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing vision-language model (VLM) benchmarks emphasize perception and reasoning accuracy (how well VLMs describe and reason about what they see in an image), with limited attention to behavioral reliability under uncertainty (how they behave when visual evidence is missing or misleading).
