Frequency-Aware Model Parameter Explorer: A new attribution method for improving explainability

State-of-the-art attribution methods such as AttEXplore rely on adversarial sample generation that applies an all-pass filter across the frequency spectrum: they perturb all frequencies of the input image alike, from the low frequencies that carry coarse shape to the high frequencies that carry edges and textures. Howe...

Generative AI for Autonomous Driving: A Review

Generative AI (GenAI) is rapidly advancing the field of Autonomous Driving (AD), extending beyond traditional applications in text, image, and video generation. We explore how generative models can enhance automotive tasks, such as static map creation, dynamic scenario generation, trajectory forecasting, and vehicle mo...

Towards Understanding Deep Learning Model in Image Recognition via Coverage Test

Deep neural networks (DNNs) play a crucial role in the field of artificial intelligence, and their security-related testing has been a prominent research focus. By inputting test cases, the behavior of models is examined for anomalies, and coverage metrics are utilized to determine the extent of neurons covered by thes...

A Comprehensive Review on RNA Subcellular Localization Prediction

The subcellular localization of RNAs, including long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), messenger RNAs (mRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and other smaller RNAs, plays a critical role in determining their biological functions. For instance, lncRNAs are predominantly associated with chromatin and act as regulators of gene transcriptio...

Natural Language Generation from Visual Events: State-of-the-Art and Key Open Questions

In recent years, a substantial body of work in visually grounded natural language processing has focused on real-life multimodal scenarios such as describing content depicted in images or videos. However, comparatively less attention has been devoted to studying the nature and degree of interaction between the differen...

Scale-specific auxiliary multi-task contrastive learning for deep liver vessel segmentation

Extracting hepatic vessels from abdominal images is of high interest for clinicians since it allows to divide the liver into functionally-independent Couinaud segments. In this respect, an automated liver blood vessel extraction is widely summoned. Despite the significant growth in performance of semantic segmentation...

NeuSE: Neural SE(3)-Equivariant Embedding for Long-Term Object-Based Simultaneous Localization and Mapping

We present NeuSE, a novel Neural SE(3)-Equivariant Embedding for objects, and illustrate how it supports object-based Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) for consistent spatial understanding with long-term scene changes. NeuSE is a set of latent object embeddings created from partial object observations. It se...

RewardHarness: Self-Evolving Agentic Post-Training

Aligning generative models with human preferences remains a central challenge. While RLHF is widely adopted, it relies on large-scale preference data. This limitation is particularly evident in evaluating instruction-guided image edits, even though humans can often learn such preferences from only a few examples. We pr...

ChunkAct: Action Chunking for Agentic Robotics

Agentic robotics places a large language model (LLM) agent in the robot control loop, where it composes perception, motion, and vision-language-action (VLA) tools under the guidance of a memory and thereby generalizes to new tasks without retraining. This generality comes at a steep price in efficiency. Every primitive...

Tev: Scaling Long-Horizon Agentic Environments with Dense Progress Rewards

Long-horizon agents have drawn growing attention for their ability to work autonomously -- from hours to days -- on economically valuable tasks, a capability essential to automated discovery and recursive self-improvement (RSI). Yet open-source models still struggle on long-horizon tasks, largely for lack of both train...

UniW(A)M: A Unified Mixture-of-Experts Framework for World and World-Action Models

World models (WMs) and world-action models (WAMs) focus on future world prediction and executable action generation, respectively. Although these models learn shared physical dynamics and interaction semantics from embodied trajectories, they are typically trained in isolation, which restricts knowledge reuse between p...

GeoReader: Learning Latent Geometry for Spatial Reasoning in Vision-Language Models

Vision-language models (VLMs) struggle with metric and multi-view relationships that remain implicit in RGB observations. Geometry foundation models recover this structure from RGB, but existing methods either fuse the estimated features with visual tokens and learn to use them from question answering alone, or align V...

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.
