CARE: Condition-Aware Representation Regularization for Diffusion Models

Recent advances in diffusion models highlight the importance of representation regularization for improving sample quality and training efficiency. However, commonly used regularization methods often overlook the built-in conditions (such as labels or texts) which directly determine the generation target. In this work,...

SOV-CAD: Stepwise Orthographic Views Guided CAD Modeling Sequence Reconstruction

SOV-CAD is proposed, a framework that formulates CAD reconstruction as a sequential decision-making task and employs offline reinforcement learning with a Decision Transformer architecture that incorporates continuous visual feedback guided by geometric alignment rewards, resulting in a more accurate and human-like mod...

Breaking Failure Cascades: Step-Aware Reinforcement Learning for Medical Multimodal Reasoning

Across four multimodal LLM backbones, MRPO consistently outperforms standard GRPO and a recent RL baseline, and on Qwen3-VL-8B-Thinking even surpasses substantially larger medical MLLMs such as HuatuoGPT-Vision-34B by 4.59 points.

JoyAI-VL-Interaction: Real-Time Vision-Language Interaction Intelligence

Across six real-world scenarios, human raters prefer JoyAI-VL-Interaction over the in-app video-call assistants of Doubao and Gemini by a wide margin, and the first open, vision-driven interaction model released together with its training recipe, data, and complete deployable system.

Deep Learning-based 3D Oral Cavity Reconstruction Using 2D Intraoral Images

A software-based approach that reconstructs a 3D oral model using only ten 2D intraoral images captured from different angles, requiring no dedicated hardware devices is proposed, which reduces cost, eliminates the need for physical scanning equipment, minimises patient discomfort, and enables automated 3D reconstructi...

NVIDIA OmniDreams: Real-Time Generative World Model for Closed-Loop Autonomous Vehicle Simulation

Preliminary results indicate that a world-action model (WAM) post-trained from OmniDreams achieves strong performance on the Physical AI Autonomous Vehicles NuRec dataset, surpassing the VLA-based Alpamayo 1.5 research policy model while using only 1/5 the total parameters.

A Multimodal 3D Foundation Model for Light Sheet Fluorescence Microscopy Enables Few-Shot Segmentation, Classification, and Deblurring

Light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSM) enables high-resolution, three-dimensional (3D) imaging of biological specimens, providing rich volumetric data for studying cellular organization, pathology, and vascular networks. However, the size, dimensionality, and annotation burden of LSM data make supervised deep learni...

When Search Becomes Memory: Accelerating Robot Design Discovery with Self-Evolving Skills

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used as proposal generators for evolutionary robot design, yet most loops remain memoryless: simulator results shape the next population but are not preserved as reusable design knowledge. We present Auto-Robotist, a self-evolving LLM agent that distills morphology-search t...

Interpreting and Enhancing Emotional Circuits in Large Vision-Language Models via Cross-Modal Information Flow

This work constructs a specialized dataset to demystify the emotional circuits underlying the three-stage ``Adapt-Aggregate-Execute''mechanism and discovers a functional decoupling: visual emotional cues are aggregated in middle layers via sentiment-specific attention heads, but are subsequently translated into narrati...

What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us

Jennifer Neville did not want to go into computer science—but that’s exactly where she landed. Neville discusses the starts and stops that led to her professional sweet spot and her work identifying “surprising failures” making it hard for AI to handle complexity.  The post What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us appeared first on Microsoft Research.
