MMArch: Benchmarking Multimodal Reasoning Grounded in Architectural Evidence

arXiv:2608. 09281v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) perform strongly on engineering imagery, yet existing benchmarks mostly test drawing recognition, information extraction, or compliance checking, leaving open whether models can combine distributed visual evidence with engineering principles to reach a conclusion.

Auditing Medical Vision-Language Models on Chest Radiographs: Estimating Reference Agreement Across Institutions

arXiv:2608. 07550v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models return structured chest-radiograph findings through interfaces exposing no confidence score, so a receiving institution cannot read off how far to trust an individual judgment.

Conversational versus Dashboard Explainable AI for UAV Intrusion Detection: An Empirical Study of Operator Trust and Reliance

Machine learning-based Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) have demonstrated superior performance in securing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks. However, the 'black-box' nature of these models, combined with the high dimensionality of multimodal cyber-physical data, poses significant interpretability challenges.

SeFaR: Semantic Feature-aware Robustness Testing of Deep Neural Networks

Deep neural networks are increasingly deployed in safety-critical domains as perception modules, where failures are often caused due to rare and under-represented scenarios. This necessitates the need to evaluate the semantic robustness of perception models; conformance of behavior to high-level requirements over real-world perceptual variability.
