HuRo: Robotizing Human Videos for Scalable VLA Pretraining

A robotization pipeline is developed that converts heterogeneous human videos into robot-aligned observations and action trajectories while inferring missing intermediate signals across annotation levels and constructs the HuRo dataset, comprising about 630K robotized episodes and 142M processed frames from five human-...

RiVaT-Fuse: Reliability-Calibrated Variational Tensor Fusion for Multimodal Prediction under Modality Uncertainty

RiVaT-Fuse is proposed, a reliability-calibrated variational tensor fusion framework that defines fusion as sample-wise latent-state estimation and achieves the strongest overall predictive rank among direct representation-level baselines while improving probability and label stability under perturbation.

RynnValue: Scaling Robotic Value Foundation Models with Temporal Distance

General-purpose reward models are increasingly the bottleneck for scaling robot learning, yet the recipe for learning value-related capabilities from large-scale heterogeneous corpora remains underexplored. Existing approaches tie supervision to task-internal anchors such as preferences or normalized progress, none of...

EviMem: Evidence-Gap-Driven Iterative Retrieval for Long-Term Conversational Memory

EviMem is presented, combining IRIS (Iterative Retrieval via Insufficiency Signals), a closed-loop framework that detects evidence gaps through sufficiency evaluation, diagnoses what is missing, and drives targeted query refinement, with LaceMem (Layered Architecture for Conversational Evidence Memory), a coarse-to-fin...

Why Is Video Still So Expensive? A Survey of Inference-Efficiency Mechanisms in Video and Audiovisual LLMs

This survey covers inference-efficiency mechanisms for visual and audiovisual VideoLLMs that report concrete reductions in parameter count, FLOPs per input, latency, memory, or visual and audio token count, and organize methods by the pipeline stage at which they act.

MLLMs Hallucinate when Information Distribution Drifts in Synergy Heads

HEAL injects dynamic information calibration factors into the value vectors of synergy heads and actively regulates visual-language dependencies, steering the output distribution towards factual evidence, offering a simple and interpretable pathway to enhance model trustworthiness.

VLX-VR: An Agentic-Aware Video Reasoning Model

VLX-VR, an agentic-aware video reasoning model trained within a video reasoning framework defined by a Think--Memory--Observation loop, shows strong performance and broadly stable behavior across durations, while counting, state changes, causal reasoning, and spatial perception remain challenging.

Simple, Safe, and Overlooked: Reclaiming Sustainable Domain Generalization with Statistical Color Matching

Hardware shifts, color variations, and changing patient characteristics between development and deployment routinely break trained medical image classifiers. Existing remedies fall short: standard color jittering provides insufficient diversity, while deep generative style transfer algorithms hallucinate features, dest...

Cross-Model Agreement as a Deployment-Time Reliability Signal for Automatic Polyp Segmentation

This study supports cross-model agreement as a practical, interpretable reliability framework for automated polyp segmentation in real-time colonoscopy by measuring agreement between a primary segmentation model and an independently trained referee on the same image.

Vague2Detect: Handling Ambiguous Prompts in Knowledge-Based Open-World Detection

This work proposes Vague2Detect, a hybrid pipeline in which a fine-tuned Sentence-BERT retrieves candidates from a structured household Knowledge Base, and YOLO-World verifies their presence in the image, and improves performance to 61% VPSR with high precision, and up to 85% when augmented with GPT fallback.

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.
