Gen Through the Lens: Camera-Controllable Video Generation via Cross-Coordinate Conditioning Fusion

We present Gen Through the Lens, a camera-controllable image-to-video generation framework that synthesizes videos from a given reference image while enabling realistic and physically consistent camera operations. Unlike previous models that treat camera motion as abstract conditioning or rely on a single coordinate sy...

Learning Multimodal Sensor Fusion with JEPA Representations for Breathing Activity and Pose Recognition

Predictive video representations do not by themselves specify how a multimodal system should handle missing sensors. We transfer frozen V-JEPA2 features to a set of heterogeneous sensors comprised by RGB video, depth video, and radar time series. A shared fusion model uses modality queries, fixed sensor slots, and expl...

Adaptive Look, Flexible Thought: Learning How and How Long to Think in Multimodal Reasoning

The introduction of long chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning and external tools has substantially improved the performance of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) on general and reasoning tasks. However, existing fast-slow reasoning paradigms mainly regulate textual reasoning length, while visual computation introduce...

Rethinking Human Intent-to-CAD: Parametric CAD Model Generation via Cooperative Multi-Task Alignment and Spatial-Aware Reinforcement Learning

Parametric Computer-Aided-Design (CAD) modeling from human intent remains challenging, particularly during the conceptual design stage, where design goals are expressed through incomplete and unstructured modalities (e.g., hand-drawn sketches and textual descriptions). In this work, we rethink the human intent-to-CAD p...

ELECT: Settling Identity Before Rendering for Scalable Story Visualization

ELECT, which instead settles cross-frame identity before final rendering through a language-guided scene-entity mapping and stationary anchors elected from the model's own drafts, shows that long-horizon consistency need not require increasingly expensive inter-frame conditioning as stories grow.

Across Viewpoints and Time: Trajectory-Generalizable Physical Attacks on World Models and Video Understanding Models

World models and video understanding models are increasingly deployed in dynamic visual environments, yet their robustness to physical adversarial threats remains largely underexplored. We study whether a single physical adversarial texture can mislead the victim model across different real-world scenarios where observ...

StimFlow: Synthesizing Brain Activity from Images via Stimulus-conditioned Flow Matching

The inherent variability of fMRI responses across trials encourages a generative view of the stimulus-to-response mapping. Prior generative encoders often operate in compressed latent spaces and condition predominantly on semantic features, which provide limited low-level cues for early visual cortex. We propose StimFl...

HGA-Quant: Heterogeneity-Aware Quantization for AutoRegressive Visual Generation Models

Recently, AutoRegressive Visual Generation (ARVG) models have emerged as a competitive paradigm for high-quality image synthesis. However, their substantial computational and memory demands make them difficult to deploy on resource-constrained edge devices. Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) provides a promising solution...

Co-DSL: Human-LLM Co-design of Reusable Spatial Concepts for Layout Generation

We present Co-DSL, a framework in which users and LLMs co-design reusable spatial concepts for layout generation. In the first stage, our system allows users to create a library of personalized operations. To add a concept, a user provides a description, which the LLM converts into an initial implementation. The user c...

Protein Crystallization Segmentation and Classification Using Subordinate Color Channel in Fluorescence Microscopy Images

The accuracy of detecting protein crystals for fluorescence microscopy images is very critical for high throughput and automated systems. Although the trace fluorescent labeling method could highlight protein crystals, reflection and emission from the fluorescence dye is not always due to crystal regions. Therefore, th...

GeoBridge: Evolving Transferable Decoder Topologies for Geometric Vision

Depth estimation and Gaussian reconstruction share a need for multi-scale feature processing, yet use different prediction interfaces and training objectives. Whether a decoder's internal computation can be optimized once and reused across these systems remains a structural design question. Search over primitive config...

RIECNN: Real-Time Image Enhanced CNN for Traffic Sign Recognition

Traffic sign recognition plays a crucial role in the development of autonomous cars to reduce the accident rate and promote road safety. It has been a necessity to address traffic signs that are affected significantly by the environment as well as poor real-time performance for deep-learning state-of-the-art algorithms...

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.
