AGOS-Bench is introduced, the first dedicated benchmark for evaluating whether general-purpose Vision-Language Models (VLMs) can integrate aerial discoveries and ground-level verification through UAV-UGV cooperation, and AGOS-Agent is proposed, a training-free and tool-augmented approach to address the AGOS task.
RGBTR-Motion is introduced, a synchronized and calibrated fixed-camera benchmark that pairs RGB, thermal, and radar streams with dense instance masks and temporally consistent identities across diverse surveillance scenes.
FPicker, the first topology-guided framework reconciling these incompatibilities, unifies perception via a center-endpoint representation and an open-curve evolution module to explicitly model non-cyclic connectivity.
Vision-language models (VLMs) demonstrate strong performance across compositional reasoning benchmarks, which require reasoning over semantic perturbations of objects, attributes, relations, and their interactions. However, our controlled analysis reveals that existing compositionality-aware VLMs exhibit element-specif...

Because dense frame-level annotation of colonoscopy videos is costly, we propose WSPolypNet, a weakly supervised framework for polyp localization using only video-level labels. WSPolypNet employs a 3D convolutional neural network trained with video-level supervision to generate class activation maps (CAMs), which ident...

SAFER-Activities is introduced, a dataset for fall detection and physical activity monitoring, with a dedicated subset for wheelchair use scenarios, and cross-dataset and qualitative evaluations confirm that models trained on SAFER-Activities transfer well to unseen environments and external fall data.

This work fuse DINOv3 and CleanDIFT representations into a perception encoder and align it with RoBERTa-L, yielding a text-aligned model TDDN that preserves this perceptual advantage and leads on segmentation benchmarks among general-purpose contrastive encoders, including SigLIP.

SAFIRE is introduced, a large-scale benchmark for fire-smoke understanding in MLLMs, comprising 83K captioned images from 20 scenarios and 193K multiple-choice VQA (MCVQA) generated from a 9.7K-image subset, spanning 10 evaluation dimensions from basic perception to higher-order reasoning.

Vision-of-Thought (VoT), a framework that introduces a discrete visual-thinking layer between vision-language models (VLMs) and diffusion transformers (DiTs) that improves semantic alignment and provides a structured interface for interpretable and controllable generation is proposed.

Exploring how generative AI could make machine vision more accessible to businesses. The post GenEye in a Box: Making Machine Vision Something You Can Just Ask For appeared first on GPT-Lab.
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.
Computer scientist, entrepreneur, and philanthropist will collaborate with the MIT Schwarzman College of Computing to advance AI and scientific discovery.
