MethaneFuse: Learning from Multi-Sensor Satellite Observations for Methane Plume Detection

Sensor-availability experiments show that MethaneFuse improves detection when S2 is available and transfers plume knowledge to L8/9, EMIT, and S5P when S2 is unavailable, demonstrating the value of learning from incomplete heterogeneous sensor observations for practical methane plume detection.

Infra-Bench CLS: A Global, Open-Source Benchmark for Critical Infrastructure Classification with Earth Observation Foundation Models

Critical infrastructure location data is often incomplete and unevenly distributed globally, especially in developing regions. Earth observation foundation models are proposed as a new step in enabling us to more efficiently understand the natural and built environment, raising questions as to their effectiveness in pe...

GLOSS: Geometric Local Self-Similarity Learning for Faithful Reference-Guided Texture Fill

This work leverages the geometric self-similarity and geometry-texture correlation existing in many natural and man-made shapes; and trains a shape-specific local texture generation and completion model that enables local geometry-conditioned texture inpainting, guided by artist-selected references, and generalizes to...

View-Structured Conformal Prediction for 3D Gaussian Splatting

View-Structured Conformal Prediction (VSCP) is proposed, which splits the pre-calibration scale into a spatial shape from the renderer and a transferable view-difficulty factor, which predicts the smallest view-wise multiplier that shape needs.

Efficient Fairness Auditing Across Guidance Scales in Text-to-Image Diffusion Models via Causal Abstraction

A causal-abstraction-based audit instrument for efficiently evaluating fairness under interventions on the classifier-free guidance scale is proposed and experiments evaluate distributional fidelity, fairness-query accuracy, and computational efficiency.

PSCT-Net: Geometry-Aware Pediatric Skull CT Reconstruction via Differentiable Back-Projection and Attention-Guided Refinement

PSCT-Net, a geometry-aware framework with differentiable back-projection, establishes a spatially faithful volumetric prior, alleviating depth ambiguity and addressing the gap in adult-centric, trunk-focused datasets.

FiberTune: Preserving Action-Fiber Visual Residuals in Vision-Language-Action Fine-Tuning

FiberTune is proposed, a training-time objective that preserves teacher-structured visual residuals without adding inference-time overhead and improves over task-loss-only fine-tuning in every one of six controlled simulation settings spanning two benchmarks and two architectures.

RAU: Reference-based Anatomical Understanding with Vision Language Models

Anatomical understanding, which is the ability to identify, localize, or segment anatomical structures, is critical in medical image analysis; however, its progress is constrained by the scarcity of expert-labeled data. A promising remedy is to leverage an annotated reference image to guide the interpretation of an unl...

SloMoDeblur: A Large-Scale Smartphone Image Deblurring Dataset

A large-scale smartphone-oriented deblurring dataset constructed from 240~fps slow-motion video is introduced and multiple state-of-the-art deblurring models using PSNR and SSIM are benchmarked to observe consistent performance degradation relative to the baseline similarity between the input blurry images and ground 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.
