VEDJE: Video-Efficient Discriminative Joint Encoder for Scalable Video-Text Retrieval

Finding the right video often requires distinguishing similar scenes in which different events occur. Joint matching improves retrieval, but processing rich video representations for each query is costly. VEDJE compresses features within sampled frames while keeping their representations separate in a reusable cache. F...

Have I Seen Enough? Frozen Video-Language Models Encode Evidence Readiness

Streaming video-language models must decide not only what to answer, but whether the evidence needed for the current question has arrived. Existing systems learn that decision as a separate trigger; we ask whether an unmodified model already computes it. We show that frozen VideoLLMs carry a linearly readable evidence-...

Step-Wise Refusal Dynamics in Autoregressive and Diffusion Language Models

It is shown that diffusion remasking can promote recovery from harmful intermediate generations, provide evidence that this behavior is tied to the sampling mechanism, and demonstrate that switching from AR to diffusion sampling improves jailbreak robustness, including under fixed model weights.

CXR-Retrieve: Compositional Text-to-Image Retrieval in Chest Radiography

The results show that reliable chest X-ray retrieval requires training objectives that model not only which findings are mentioned, but also how they are clinically asserted, as well as a label-aware contrastive fine-tuning objective for clinical retrieval.
