Differential privacy representation geometry for medical image analysis

Differential privacy (DP)'s effect in medical imaging is typically evaluated only through end-to-end performance, leaving the mechanism of privacy-induced utility loss unclear. We introduce Differential Privacy Representation Geometry for Medical Imaging (DP-RGMI), a framework that interprets DP as a structured transfo...

The Scissors Effect: When Resize-Based Input Diversity Helps or Hurts Transfer Attacks

Input Diversity (DI), a random resize and pad applied at each attack iteration, is a near-default ingredient of transfer-based attacks, widely assumed to improve transferability. We show this assumption is regime-dependent and, for adversarially trained surrogates, often reversed. Holding the attack fixed and varying o...

Partial recovery of meter-scale surface weather

Near-surface weather varies over tens to hundreds of meters, yet remains unresolved in analyses and forecasts. We test whether this variation can be inferred without resolving atmospheric dynamics. Combining sparse weather stations, high-resolution Earth observation, and coarse atmospheric dynamics, we infer temperatur...

Tables Decoded: DELTA for Structure, TarQA for Understanding

DELTA is presented, which separates physical structure recognition, logical structure recognition, and OCR to extract both layout and content accurately, and TarQA is introduced, an LLM fine-tuned on OTSL sequences that encodes cell arrangements and textual content.

Quantum-Inspired Trainable and Parameter-Efficient Tensor Networks for Image Inpainting

This work introduces quantum-inspired tensor-network circuits as trainable transforms for image inpainting. Among the proposed architectures, the diagonal quantum Fourier transform (QFT) relaxation is invertible with $O(N^2 \log N)$ computational cost for $N\times N$ images, inherently preserving minimum coherence thro...

ResLRP: The Role of Residual Cancellation in Attribution Instability in Vision Transformers

Residual-aware Layer-wise Relevance Propagation (ResLRP) is introduced, a simple extension of LRP whose propagation rules explicitly account for cancellations in residual branches, are exactly conservative, and provably bound relevance explosion.

From Foundation Embeddings to Cropland Maps: Label Efficiency, Temporal Transferability and Independent Human Validation

The results support frozen geospatial embeddings as a low-compute candidate for regional cropland mapping, subject to the limits of a single-state study, a 30 m-derived training reference, and a one-block human validation.

Neuro-Symbolic Hierarchical Intention Anticipation in Human Behavior

Assistive autonomous systems must anticipate human goals before an observed behavior is complete. This article formulates anticipation as goal inference from a partially observed multimodal episode together with structured prediction of the remaining behavior, rather than exact motor forecasting. A compact Hierarchical...

MedPCFM-TED: One-Step Point Cloud Flow Matching for Implant Generation via Teacher-Guided Endpoint Distillation

Cranial implant generation is an important task in medical imaging. Recent point cloud based generative methods, particularly flow matching, offer strong reconstruction quality and efficient sampling, but still require multiple neural function evaluations during inference. This limits rapid generation of multiple plaus...

NeuroTS-Net: Multi-Class Semantic Segmentation of Pediatric Brain Tumors in Multi-Modal MRI

NeuroTS-Net is introduced, a three-dimensional encoder-decoder convolutional neural network architecture for multi-class semantic segmentation that incorporates a dual-scale raw-detail stream, adaptive low-resolution context selection, and detail-preserving multipath downsampling that efficiently modeling broader tumor...

TEMPO: Learning Temporal Context for Dynamic Robot Manipulation

TEMPO is proposed, which augments a pretrained VLA with two temporal inputs: a motion summary extracted from a frozen video foundation model to resolve motion ambiguity and a compact proprioceptive history to resolve state aliasing.

Measuring Annotation Efficiency for Handwritten Devanagari Recognition: Sample-Complexity Curves for Four Pretraining Regimes

The scarcity in this study is constructed by subsampling a large corpus by changing only the number of real transcribed words used for fine-tuning across nine budgets from 10 to 4,000 and four initialisation regimes, with six seeds at every point.

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.
