Video-HopChain: Multi-Hop Questions and Confidence-Gated Exploration for Video Reasoning Models

HopChain has shown on still images that multi-hop data synthesis improves vision-language reasoning, because long chain-of-thought reasoning exposes errors that compound across steps, while most data used for reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) rarely demands a chain of visual evidence, so these weakn...

Interpretable AI plus Handheld, Portable Retinal Photographs: A Low-Cost Glaucoma Screening Solution for West Africa

Volk Viva results were reasonably comparable to Canon CR-2-AF in the component models and not far behind in classification, which shows that interpretable AI combined with low-cost, portable imaging may enhance community-level glaucoma screening, especially in settings with limited specialist access and resources.

RootQuantV2: Adapting a Vision Foundation Model for Root-Trait Regression from Minirhizotron Imagery

RootQuantV2 repurposes legacy numeric archives for high-throughput, automated root trait estimation, replacing RootQuant's CNN backbone with a self-supervised ViT and adapting a frozen DINOv3 ViT-L/16 with a hybrid parameter-efficient scheme.

RGSQ: Riemannian Geometry-Sensitive Quantization for Large Vision-Language Models

Riemannian Geometry-Sensitive Quantization (RGSQ), which formulates quantization as a reconstruction problem under a unified Fisher-Riemannian metric, enabling standard unimodal PTQ methods to evaluate multimodal quantization error under their original assumptions.

Geometric and Semantic Coupling for Interaction Understanding in 3D Scenes

Interaction understanding in 3D scenes requires a joint description of movable parts, their motion, and the regions through which they can be operated. We present Segment-Snap, which connects these outputs through the physical relationship between parts and handles. Learned predictors identify broad part surfaces and s...

WILSON - a pathology foundation model framework for patient-level analysis and diagnostic text generation

WILSON, a vision--language foundation model that represents whole-slide images and multi-slide cases as single multi-magnification composite images as single multi-magnification composite images, trained on approximately 189k slides from Mayo Clinic spanning 42 organs and 829 diagnostic entities using pathology reports...

You've Seen Enough: Quality-Constrained Image Coding for Machines

This paper proposes two variants of a penalty function that guides the quality toward the target: an absolute function and a bilinear function, the latter applying a steeper slope once the target visual quality is exceeded.

LLM-Driven Training-free Location-Attribute Synergic Fusion: A Closed-Loop Paradigm for Dual-source Encrypted POIs and LULC Mapping

This paper is the first to propose an LLM-driven, training-free location-attribute synergic closed-loop optimization paradigm for DSEP fusion and proposes a training-free LULC mapping method that inherits land-use classes from encrypted maps through location fusion, producing vector-raster integrated LULC maps.

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy response prediction using pretreatment diffusion and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging with clinical variables

Prediction of pathological complete response before neoadjuvant chemotherapy may facilitate more tailored therapeutic planning for breast cancer patients. This work proposes a deep-learning model for pretreatment data only, combining apparent diffusion coefficient maps, dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imag...

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.
