Eliciting Self-Verification in Multimodal Reasoning Agents with Reinforcement Learning

Self-Verification via Reinforcement Learning (SVRL), an RL-only finetuning framework that trains multimodal agents to verify and filter retrieved evidence within their own reasoning traces, reducing reliance on external verifiers at inference time is presented.

Weakly supervised neural network: segmentation of complex structures in X-ray microCT

Results indicate that weak supervision provides a meaningful learning signal, enabling reliable localization of glomeruli even in the absence of dense labels, and incorporation of a small set of high-quality annotations substantially improves segmentation performance, approaching that of a fully supervised model.

Unraveling the Real Working Mechanism and Inherent Flaws of GAE: A Method for Interpreting Transformer Processes from an Economic Perspective

It is argued that GAE is an interpretation method that focuses on the attention process and proposed Cumulative Asset Holdings (CAH), a more reasonable Transformer interpretation method integrating both process-based and feature-based ideas from an economic zero-sum games perspective.

Multimodal Resource-Exhaustion Attacks on Vision-Language Models via Joint Pixel-Prompt Optimization

Resource-exhaustion attacks against autoregressive vision-language models (VLMs) typically assume unimodal threat models, treating the image branch as the primary optimization surface while holding user-visible prompts fixed. Even recent loop-centric variants remain confined to this single-channel paradigm, leaving the...

When and What to Teach: Budget-Aware Online Adaptation for Web Agents

A budget-aware framework that systematically orchestrates when and what to teach and integrates a solvability-aware teacher gate to dictate the teacher model and a score-guided turn selection mechanism to decide what informative turns to retain is proposed.

GameWAM: A World Action Model for Video Games

This work introduces GameWAM, to its knowledge the first WAM for native closed-loop gameplay and GUI control and uncovers Low-Frequency Action Source Imprinting (LASI), in which low-frequency components of the sampled action source systematically steer coarse generated camera motion under fixed conditioning, revealing...

A2DINOv3: Rethinking Multi-Modal Object Detection via Socialized Collaboration

This work revisits multi-modal fusion from the perspective of socialized learning and proposes adapter to DINOv3 (A2DINOv3), a multi-expert collaboration framework with a Socialized Collaboration Protocol (SCP), where RGB and infrared branches are modeled as heterogeneous experts that independently preserve their speci...

FRAME: separating sampling variation from representational cause in medical imaging fairness

Subgroup performance differences are the standard evidence for fairness bias in medical imaging, and the usual response removes the demographic information that a model encodes. Here we introduce Fair-model Reference And Mechanism Evaluation (FRAME), a two-step framework for auditing such a claim. The first step derive...

When Low CER is Not Enough: An Analysis of Hallucinations in Vision-Language OCR Systems on Historical Uruguayan Documents

A critical gap between quantitative OCR performance and transcription fidelity in real-world archival settings is revealed, and the need for evaluation frameworks that go beyond character-level accuracy to capture the semantic reliability of generated transcriptions is highlighted.

From Interpretability Methods to Interpretable Models

It is argued for shifting the field's focus from methods to models, along two complementary lines: existing tools let us characterize and compare what different models represent and compute, and whether a model can actually be understood by the humans who rely on it.

EyeMakeYou: Identity-, Task-, and Subjective-State-Conditioned Diffusion for High-Frequency Gaze Synthesis

Eye movement biometrics (EMB) is an emerging behavioral modality for user authentication, particularly in virtual- and augmented-reality systems, where gaze dynamics contain distinctive subject-specific features. However, robust EMB systems require diverse, high-quality gaze recordings that are expensive to collect and...

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.
