MessyKitchens: Contact-rich object-level 3D scene reconstruction

This work introduces MessyKitchens, a new dataset with real-world scenes featuring cluttered environments and providing high-fidelity object-level ground truth in terms of 3D object shapes, poses and accurate object contacts, and builds on the recent SAM 3D approach for single-object reconstruction and extends it with...

Using Vision Language Foundation Models to Generate Plant Simulation Configurations via In-Context Learning

A benchmark for evaluating whether vision-language models (VLMs) can generate plant simulation configurations from imagery using in-context learning and establishing a benchmark for studying how multimodal reasoning, prompt design, and the sim-to-real domain gap affect plant phenotyping tasks is established.

UniShield: An Adaptive Multi-Agent Framework for Unified Forgery Image Detection and Localization

With the rapid advancements in image generation, synthetic images have become increasingly realistic, posing significant societal risks, such as misinformation and fraud. Forgery Image Detection and Localization (FIDL) thus emerges as essential for maintaining information integrity and societal security. Despite impres...

Frozen Flows Forget: Diagnosing and Restoring Lost Motion in a Latent-flow World Model

Latent world models that integrate a flow in a frozen self supervised latent space train stably and cheaply, yet silently lose the property manipulation depends on most: motion. The pretrained flow never moves the manipulated object; retraining it with latent-only losses only trades stillness for teleport-like motion....

AnchorReasoning: A Visual Grounding and Causal Reasoning Dataset in Long-Tail Autonomous Driving Scenarios

Vision-language models (VLMs) offer a promising approach to long-tail autonomous driving, but existing driving datasets provide limited supervision for connecting decision-critical visual evidence with reasoning and planning. We introduce AnchorReasoning, a visually grounded reasoning dataset built on WOD-E2E, containi...

MemBodied: Recurrent Associative Memory for Vision-Language-Action Models

Findings support MemBodied as a practical alternative to expanding the policy context for history-dependent manipulation, a fixed-size episodic memory with two complementary components: an associative state that records interactions across policy calls and an episode anchor that preserves a compact representation of th...

Do Center Biases Propagate? Robustness of Pathology Foundation Models in Whole-Slide Image Classification

Pathology foundation models (PFMs) have transformed computational pathology through powerful representation learning from histopathological images. PFMs provide rich, discriminative representations for whole slide image (WSI) analysis, enabling tasks such as slide-level classification under multiple instance learning (...

Field-of-View Extension in Dental Cone-Beam CT via Implicit Neural Representations and Diffusion Model-Based Refinement

A three-stage framework that consists of an implicit neural representation (INR) for estimating missing parts of the truncated projection data, an iterative reconstruction for generating a secondary volumetric image with improved anatomical consistency and a fast diffusion model for image enhancement is proposed.

RelCheck: Dual-Evidence Spatial Grounding for VLM Hallucination Correction

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) fre- quently generate text that is inconsistent with the input image. While object- and attribute-level hallucinations have received considerable attention, relational hallucinations (incorrect de- scriptions of spatial or interactive relationships between objects) remain largel...

TopoGS: Topology-Aware Anchor Feature Aggregation for Large-Scale 3D Gaussian Splatting

TopoGS is a topology-aware anchor feature aggregation framework with two lightweight components that establishes bidirectional cross-level gradient pathways by fusing per-level context triplets with a residual MLP and applies soft weighting to accommodate varying topological sparsity.

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.
