Action-Slot: Structured Action-Centric Representation Learning for Multi-Agent Atomic Activity Understanding

Atomic activity understanding aims to recognize and localize structured traffic behaviors that jointly encode motion patterns and their grounding in road topology. Unlike conventional action recognition, atomic activities are multi-agent, multi-label, and topology-aware: multiple activities co-occur while many agents r...

PREM: Prefix-Steered Recurrent Memory for Long-Video Understanding

Prefix-Steered Recurrent Memory (PREM), a memory-token-free framework for frozen vision-language models (VLMs) that separates video ingestion from query answering, consistently outperforms frozen baselines at every evaluated visual budget.

PETR: Prompt Ensembling with Training-free Routing for Vision-Language Models

Prompt learning efficiently adapts vision-language models (VLMs) to downstream tasks, but gains on seen classes often come at the expense of generalization to unseen classes. To address this limitation, we propose prompt ensembling with training-free routing (PETR), whose key innovation is a carefully designed dual-pro...

Modeling Clinical Workflow for SYNTAX Scoring from Coronary Angiography Videos

The SYNTAX score is a clinically established tool for assessing anatomical lesion complexity in coronary artery disease and guiding subsequent treatment. However, automated SYNTAX scoring is commonly formulated as a direct regression problem from coronary angiography videos to patient-level scores. In this work, we ref...

CE$^4$L: Continual Ego, Exo, and Ego-Exo Learning

This work introduces Continual Ego, Exo, and Ego-Exo Learning (CE$^4$L), a unified multi-view CL benchmark spanning four representative tasks: cross-view referenced skill assessment, temporal action segmentation, cross-view association, and action anticipation&planning.

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.
