Multimodal Federated Learning under Dual-Axis Modality Missingness

arXiv:2608. 09240v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal federated learning (FL) supports collaborative modeling in privacy-sensitive health-sensing and medical settings, but realistic deployments often exhibit dual-axis modality missingness: clients have different modality sets, and individual samples may contain only subsets of the modalities available locally.

Auditing Instruction-Trajectory Mismatches in Multimodal Robot Demonstrations

arXiv:2608. 07895v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robot demonstration datasets used to train vision-language-action policies can contain a subtle but harmful failure mode: trajectories that are behaviorally correct but paired with the wrong language instruction.
