NormAct: Benchmarking Embodied Agents' Proactive Compliance with Unspoken Social Norms

arXiv:2606. 27826v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Embodied agents driven by multimodal large language models (MLLMs) can often complete everyday tasks from visual observations, but goal achievement does not establish whether they proactively respect unstated social norms.

DeltaPrompts: Escaping the Zero-Delta Trap in Multimodal Distillation

arXiv:2605. 15532v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Distillation enables compact Vision-Language Models (VLMs) to obtain strong reasoning capabilities, yet the prompts driving this process are typically chosen via simple heuristics or aggregated from off-the-shelf datasets.

Simple Token-Efficient Vision-Language Model for Case-level Pathology Synoptic Report Generation

arXiv:2605. 30716v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generating clinically useful pathology reports for pathology cases from whole-slide images (WSIs) is challenging due to gigapixel resolution, long visual-token sequences, and the complexity of case-level reasoning, where a single case may contain multiple WSIs with heterogeneous tissues and ambiguous findings.
