FineART: Fine-Grained Annotated Robotic Trajectory Dataset and Vision-Language-Action Model for Bimanual Manipulation

FineART is presented, a densely annotated bimanual manipulation dataset comprising 40,543 episodes and 533,913 subtasks across 151 tasks and FineART-VLA is introduced, a vision-language-action policy that predicts its own next subtask to guide its actions.

AdaKerNet: Neural Kernel Decoding for Task-Adaptive Prediction with Multimodal Large Models

AdaKerNet is introduced, a novel learnable task-adaptive neural kernel decoder that operates solely on its (frozen) rich representations obtained from the diverse available modalities and established as an effective approach for prediction from frozen multimodal representations in the scarce label regime.

Compress to Remember: Learning Compact Memory via On-Policy Distillation for Long Video Generation

Prediction-Aligned Context Compaction (PACC), which uses a learned compressor to aggregate information across past frames into compact memory tokens, shows that learning to compact historical context can improve long-video memory without modifying the underlying generator.

PyroStack: A Multi-Band Spatio-Temporal Sub-Daily Dataset for Wildfires in the United States

Wildfires are an increasing hazard to ecosystems, air quality, and human systems, creating a growing need for datasets that support systematic development and evaluation of models for predicting fire spread across diverse landscapes. Effective prediction requires integrating meteorological conditions, fuels, vegetation...

Think Before You Restore: Risk-Aware Manchu Manuscript Restoration with Stroke-Guided Attention

SAGE-Restore (Stroke-Aware Gated rEstoration), a selective restoration framework that first assesses where restoration is needed and then uses this assessment to guide restoration candidate generation and pixel-level selection, is proposed.

Mutually Adversarial Self-Training with Evolving Data for Unified Multimodal Models

MATE (Mutually Adversarial self-Training with Evolving data), a reinforcement-learning-based post-training framework in which the two branches instead challenge each other, and the challenges evolve as the model trains, turns the training into self-play in data space.

PreviewDiff: Multimodal Critic-Guided Search over Diffusion Latents

Diffusion models can produce striking images and videos, but they still struggle with the compositional details that make a generation faithful to a prompt, such as object counts, attribute binding, spatial relations, and temporally grounded actions. A common way to improve prompt satisfaction is to spend more compute...

AerialDojo-200K: A Large-Scale Benchmark Suite for Open-World Aerial Object-Goal Search

A large-scale benchmark suite for open-world aerial object-goal search, with 3 times as many scenes and 18.7 times as many task instances as the largest existing benchmark for this task, and a unified evaluation framework with a unified evaluation framework.

Systematic Multi-Agent Vision-and-Language Navigation: Formulation, Benchmark, and Method

Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) has largely focused on a single agent following a single instruction, yet many real-world applications require teams of robots to tackle tasks beyond the capabilities of any individual agent. We present Systematic Multi-Agent Vision-and-Language Navigation, providing, to our knowled...

PACT: Pairwise-Anchored Calibrated Tuning for Single-Token Typed Decisions

PACT is proposed, which turns this structure into four training terms that need no new annotation: a difference-in-differences margin over each pair that is invariant to any shared logit offset, a permutation-consistency term against answer-code position bias, an evidence-necessity term on certificate-verified ablated...

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.
