Vision-language models, speech and cross-modal systems that read, look and listen in the same forward pass.
arXiv:2606. 28758v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predicting future states is essential for autonomous agents, yet current Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models fundamentally lack this capability, relying instead on reactive perception-action mapping.
arXiv:2606. 28406v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-to-image and multimodal generative models are increasingly used to produce scientific figures such as mechanism diagrams, experimental-design schematics, conceptual frameworks, and graphical abstracts.
arXiv:2606. 21401v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Agentic AI applications compose multiple model calls and tool executions, creating new scheduling challenges for GPU-CPU clusters.
arXiv:2606. 29820v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In complex continuous-control reinforcement learning tasks, multimodal optimal actions often coincide with uncertain, multimodal return distributions, making reliable value estimation and multimodal exploration challenging.
arXiv:2606. 28445v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Early detection of dementia enables timely intervention, and reflecting cognitive impairment, spontaneous speech offers a non-invasive screening modality.
arXiv:2606. 30113v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Discrete action tokenization provides a compact interface for autoregressive VLA policies, but accurately recovering continuous robot actions from discrete codes remains challenging.
arXiv:2602. 18528v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Audio-visual continual test-time adaptation involves continually adapting a source audio-visual model at test-time, to unlabeled non-stationary domains, where either or both modalities can be distributionally shifted, which hampers online cross-modal learning and eventually leads to poor accuracy.
arXiv:2604. 28123v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The standard post-training recipe for large multimodal models (LMMs) applies supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on curated demonstrations followed by reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR).
arXiv:2606. 29431v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite the impressive capabilities of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs), they remain susceptible to hallucination, generating content inconsistent with the input image.
arXiv:2602. 23353v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The Platonic Representation Hypothesis posits that neural networks trained on different modalities converge toward a shared statistical model of the world.
Perception-based humanoid loco-manipulation requires connecting egocentric observations and task instructions to whole-body motion. Learning this mapping requires synchronized egocentric images, language commands, and robot-compatible kinematic trajectories, yet no existing data source provides this complete tuple at scale.
As real-world prediction systems often face missing modalities at inference, incomplete multimodal learning (IML) remains a practical challenge. While prior methods aim to learn representations robust to missing inputs, representations from incomplete modalities inevitably deviate from their full-modality counterparts due to missing evidence.
Text-Attributed Graphs (TAGs) combine textual semantics with graph structure and are central to many graph learning tasks. However, existing fusion methods often treat text and structure as separate inputs in a shallow, one-way pipeline, which limits deep interaction between modalities and weakens performance under sparse connectivity or cross-graph generalisation.
High benchmark accuracy does not guarantee genuine use of visual evidence. We study this problem in traffic accident Video Question Answering (VideoQA), where correct answers should depend on scene-specific visual evidence but may instead be inferred from textual shortcuts.
Current evaluation protocols for Vision-Language Models (VLMs) in Radiology Report Generation (RRG) rely on report-level metrics that measure lexical overlap or aggregate clinical correctness. However, such metrics do not test whether individual diagnostic statements stem from the actual pathological evidence visible in the image.
Improving vision-language models (VLMs) on visual reasoning typically requires retraining or hand-designed prompts and tools. We present Dynamo, a training-free framework that adapts a frozen VLM without any weight updates.
While Text-to-Image (T2I) models have shown remarkable success in generating photorealistic visual content, they still struggle with the rigorous semantic alignment and logical reasoning required for scientific imagery. Inspired by Peirce's Semiotic Triad, we introduce Scientific Image Reasoning (SciIR), a comprehensive resource for training and evaluation of scientific image generation.
Embodied agents are typically built as hand-designed compositions of perception, memory, planning, and action modules. This modularity exposes a large architectural design space, but current systems still rely on researcher intuition to choose where information is stored, how observations are processed, and how model calls are connected.
Color Fundus Photography (CFP) offers a low-cost and non-invasive route for ischemic heart disease (IHD) screening, but current studies are limited by scarce public benchmarks and ineffective fusion of retinal images with sparse clinical variables. We propose IDNet, a multimodal framework with a Cross-Modal Distillation Aggregator (CDA) that uses learnable queries to sequentially integrate left-eye, right-eye, and clinical features, mitigating the imbalance between high-dimensional visual features and low-dimensional tabular inputs.
Music-driven dance video generation aims to synthesize expressive human motion that is temporally aligned with music while maintaining high visual fidelity. Despite recent progress, existing methods still face two key limitations: the lack of large-scale, high-quality dance video datasets, and the absence of principled frameworks for integrating music as a complementary conditioning signal into Video Generation Foundation Models.
