Pretrained Vision Transformers encode whether two image patches belong to the same object. This IsSameObject signal is decodable from frozen patch embeddings at high accuracy, which suggests that object binding emerges from self-supervised pretraining alone. We show that this single accuracy number hides the structure...
The ability of vision-language models (VLMs) to associate visual identities with biographical information creates a need for selective unlearning of personally identifiable information (PII) while preserving permitted knowledge about the same individual. This setting is challenging because both sensitive and retained i...
LS-B observes the first tasks through a frozen fMRI encoding model of twelve human visual areas and commits task-specific capacity once to the blocks whose readouts vary most across tasks relative to their stable structure, yielding stable, backbone-specific allocations.
A post-hoc out-of-distribution (OOD) detector reads the activations of a trained classifier and returns a score. It fits that score on in-distribution data, and the benchmarks that evaluate it supply a second piece of OOD data for the fitting itself. Some detectors tune a constant on it. Others fit a direction in featu...

Distinct pre-trained models specialized for the same task converge to closely similar behavior, yet the parameter updates that produce it share no common coordinate system. Weight-space task arithmetic is therefore confined to a single model, and transporting an update between models requires a structural correspondenc...
Foundation models remain vulnerable to spurious correlations and ``Clever Hans'' strategies. Explainable machine learning can find and remove such strategies for classifiers without metadata. For foundation models, no such option exists yet. We propose Disentangled Diffusion Autoencoders (DiDAE). DiDAE wraps a frozen f...
Recent theoretical work identified fundamental properties of representation geometry that shape inference ability of deep neural networks. These include signal-noise factorization (SNF), the ability to segregate signal from noise, and signal-signal factorization (SSF), the ability to segregate task-specific and task-ir...
Curvature is often treated as an intrinsic property of a representation, although its empirical effect also depends on coordinate scale, learned logit temperature, and numerical safeguards. We study this interaction in hZACH-ViT, a compact Vision Transformer with Euclidean, Poincare, and spherical prototype heads. The...
Activation memory, not compute, limits CNN inference on constrained hardware such as microcontrollers. Direct in-place convolution removes the dual-buffer cost, but the memory-optimal formulation of Gural and Murmann assumes valid padding, unit stride, unit dilation, and odd square kernels, and needs a non-sequential t...
Voxel-based volumetric mapping is fundamental to 3D reconstruction, yet fixed-resolution grids remain inherently inefficient - wasting memory in uniform regions and losing detail in complex ones. Existing adaptive methods, such as MAP-ADAPT, partially address this by varying resolution based on geometry and user-define...
While humans readily repurpose a book, a stone, or a shoe to drive a nail, robots trained on specific tools fail to transfer the same function to novel ones -- a gap we formalize as functional generalization. Functionally equivalent tools share visually recognizable functional intent, such as where contact can occur an...
Vision-language models that answer questions about chest radiographs are evaluated by their accuracy on labels derived from radiology reports. High benchmark accuracy is often interpreted as evidence that the model uses the image. A model that answers from the finding named in the question can score as well as a model...

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.
