Semi-dense local feature matching commonly aggregates contextual information before coarse-to-fine correspondence estimation. However, intra-image and inter-image aggregation serve different roles:…
Hallucinated citations make it harder to trace sources and verify the evidence behind scientific claims. Detecting them is difficult because bibliographic records can be incomplete or differ across…
Quantitative analysis of environmental phenomena increasingly relies on image-based measurements. In volcanology, the geometric characterization of volcanic plumes and clouds from RGB images remains…
Literature-searching language agents are becoming a standard component of scientific assistants for the life sciences, yet there is little controlled evidence on which parts of their harness matter.…
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) improves the performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) by retrieving external knowledge. Recently, some RAG methods interleave reasoning and retrieval, enabling…
Cinematic multi-shot video generation requires both narrative planning and iterative refinement. Existing methods either lack narrative reasoning or rely on feed-forward workflows without policy…
Robots deployed in human-centered environments need maps that support both geometric navigation and open-vocabulary semantic queries beyond a fixed label set. A key challenge is enriching such maps…
Heuristic solvers for general-sum extensive-form games produce a stream of iterates, and practice reports the NashGap of the returned profile. We ask what a solver can know about its own iterates…
3D scene graphs support language-guided navigation by organizing physical entities and their containment and spatial relations into hierarchical maps. Building such structured maps requires a scene…
Whether models trained on different modalities converge to the same representation of the world is central to AI. The Platonic Representation Hypothesis (PRH) conjectures that they do as they scale,…
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have made substantial progress in robotic manipulation, but their generalization remains constrained by the diversity and coverage of action-labeled robot…
Autonomous agents powered by foundation models can reason, plan, and use tools, but their fixed weights and context limits hinder sustained learning from experience over long-term deployment. While…
An observer sees only part of the surrounding world, yet must keep track of what lies beyond the current view. Spatial perception therefore involves more than recognizing individual images: it calls…
Clinical genomic analysis requires experts to integrate evolving guidelines, databases, and computational evidence. As sequencing has become increasingly accessible, this complex and labor-intensive…
Mathematical supervision for language models is typically flattened into isolated problem-solution pairs, discarding the curricular organization and evidential structure of the original sources. We…
In the online unweighted knapsack problem, items arrive sequentially and must be accepted or rejected immediately for a bounded-capacity knapsack, aiming to maximize the total size of accepted items.…
In recent years, a growing number of online retail companies have embraced deep learning models for demand forecasting, leveraging their scalability in processing large-scale datasets. Accurate…
Memory in reinforcement learning raises two problems. Attention finds the relevant item by scoring the whole store, which is costly for robots under latency and energy limits.
Rover-mounted robotic arms can extend human reach during lunar sample handling, but continuous joystick teleoperation requires repeated visual-motor alignment while operators may also need to monitor…
Network-wide flooding in mobile multihop networks selects relays from locally maintained topology information. Mobility makes this information outdated, leaving two basic responses: add redundant…
This paper studies robust uncertainty quantification for separable nonlinear least squares (SNLLS) problems. We propose two identification methods, (i) Residual-Perturbed Gradient (RPG) and (ii)…
Code embedding models have become a key building block for many software engineering applications, yet their internal representations remain poorly understood. Existing evaluations tend to focus on…
Generalized Category Discovery (GCD) aims to perform old-category recognition and novel-category discovery in the same unlabeled set. Early methods address both objectives through clustering and…
