Marine ecosystems are impacted by various threats such as oil spills, algal blooms, and sediment floods, which disrupt habitats, wildlife, and human activities. Advances in satellite imagery and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have enhanced our capabilities for early detection and mitigation of such hazards. In this paper...

Camera-controlled video models are rapidly advancing toward long generation horizons and complex camera control. A key failure mode is 3D inconsistency: as the camera moves, objects lose permanence and scene structures shift. Existing post-training techniques, which assign a single scalar reward to the entire generatio...

Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) can generate high-quality images and videos, but generating each sample requires multiple costly DiT forward passes. Two common ways to accelerate DiT sampling are step distillation, which reduces the number of sampling steps, and caching, which skips some DiT evaluations by reusing a tens...

Recent advances in autoregressive video generation have improved temporal consistency over extended durations, yet interactive storytelling requires more than continuous scene extension: a new shot may combine characters and backgrounds from different historical shots. Whole prompt retrieval can overlook the distinct r...

Accurate colon segmentation from CT images is essential for colorectal disease analysis, yet deep learning based methods often produce disconnected predictions due to complex anatomy. This study introduces a three-stage, topology-preserving segmentation pipeline to address this issue. The first stage performs initial d...

A targeted adversarial perturbation can drive a vision-language model's (VLM's) teacher-forced training loss for a fixed target caption to near zero, yet the same model, allowed to generate freely, produces the original, correct description with no trace of the target. We call this dissociation the train/inference gap,...

Forest point cloud segmentation is fundamental for fine-grained 3D forest scene understanding, yet remains challenging due to irregular tree structures, severe occlusions, density variations, and ambiguous instance boundaries. Recent query-based forest segmentation methods have shown promise for unified semantic and in...

Solving severely ill-posed imaging inverse problems requires recovering image structures that are unobservable or weakly constrained by the measurements. Diffusion models provide expressive learned priors for inferring such missing information, while posterior sampling incorporates measurement consistency along the rev...

Diffusion models can synthesise contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) from non-contrast CT (NCCT), avoiding contrast administration and its environmental and patient-access costs. However, visually realistic images are not necessarily anatomically correct, and the pixel-intensity and feature-space similarity metrics used to asse...

Hybrid quantum classical neural networks integrate parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) with established deep learning architectures, but their performance depends strongly on the choice of quantum circuit architecture, a choice that remains largely manual. Most existing approaches rely on hand-designed or fixed circu...

Flow Matching enables high-quality visual generation via continuous-time dynamics, but inference remains costly due to multiple sequential function evaluations. Existing acceleration methods reduce the number of function evaluations but often introduce additional training overhead, degrade quality, or fail to account f...
Existing streaming vision-language models (VLMs) continuously perceive and reason over visual streams, but their computational pathways remain fixed throughout inference. Consequently, they cannot adapt computation to evolving scene dynamics, where different future events demand different levels and forms of perception...

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.
