AdaVSkip: Adaptive Visual Token Skipping Across Layers For Efficient MLLMs Inference

AdaVSkip is proposed, which equips each layer with two lightweight routers that independently determine whether visual tokens pass through by or skip the self-attention and MLP modules, and maintains strong task performance with substantially less computation.

RAIN: Region-Aware Inversion Network for Semantic Watermark Extraction

A lightweight, prompt-free extractor that decomposes endpoint recovery into an image-like anchor and a noise-oriented residual, which increases the capability of the model to utilize GPU parallel computation, providing an efficient one-step extraction pipeline with a concise theoretical interpretation.

Compositional SVG Generation via VLM-Driven Hierarchical Semantic Parsing

This work proposes a VLM-driven agentic framework for semantic compositional SVG generation that recursively parses visual scenes into semantic and geometric hierarchies via top-down decomposition, visual grounding, and prompt-driven amodal occlusion recovery, ensuring each component is geometrically complete.

Open-UniMo: Towards Unified Motion-Language Understanding and Generation in the Open World

Open-UniMo, a unified Large Motion-Language Model (LMLM) trained on million-scale open-world motion-language data, and Open-MoBench, a VLM-guided benchmark for assessing text-to-motion (T2M) generation, motion-to-text (M2T) understanding, and bidirectional consistency are proposed.

Sharing standardized image-derived data in computational pathology using DICOM

Development and evaluation of computational pathology methods require access to large and diverse datasets. Over the past decade, various initiatives invested significantly into collecting, centralizing, and sharing pathology imaging data. In contrast, sharing of image-derived data such as region-of-interest delineatio...

From Visual Attribution to Clinical Reasoning: Explainable Parkinson's Disease Screening from Hand-Drawn Patterns

Parkinson's disease (PD) manifests early neuromotor impairments that become observable in controlled hand-drawn patterns such as spirals and meanders, where tremor-induced oscillations, stroke irregularity, and curvature instability reflect underlying motor degradation. In this work, we present an explainable framework...

Lightweight Generalized DeepFake Face Detection with WAVIE: Wavelet Augmented Vision Intermediate Embeddings

WAVIE (Wavelet Augmented Vision Intermediate Embeddings) is proposed, an end-to-end architecture that combines complementary spatial and frequency cues on top of a frozen CLIP backbone that outperforms several state-of-the-art generalization baselines for deepfake detection in the wild.

A Generative AI Integrated Multimodal Framework for Low-Latency Multi-Camera Person Re-Identification

A generative AI integrated multimodal ReID framework designed explicitly for robustness under missing cues and low latency deployment is proposed, with a cost aware early-exit cascade that prioritizes inexpensive, high confidence evidence and only triggers expensive modalities for ambiguous cases.

Task-Specified Active Metrological Inspection with Measurement-Steered VLA Manipulation and Deterministic Evidence Gating

High-mix low-volume (HMLV) manufacturing requires inspection systems to adapt to changing parts, specifications, and work orders without repeated task-specific programming. Existing inspection automation typically assumes predefined sensing sequences, while general purpose robot agents optimize task completion rather t...

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.
