Unsupervised Data Drift Monitoring for Deployed Deepfake Speech Detectors

Deepfake speech detectors are typically evaluated as binary classifiers on fixed benchmarks, but deployed systems face evolving attacks, codecs, speakers, and recording conditions, with labels unavailable during operation. This makes it difficult to know when a detector operates in familiar conditions and can be relied...

Growing to See: Efficient Pretraining of Self-Supervised Vision Transformers

Progressive depth growth builds large networks by starting with shallow models and inserting layers during training. Recent advances in large language models have renewed interest in this longstanding approach, demonstrating benefits for training efficiency and reasoning alongside changes in internal computations. Howe...

InfoVis: Unified Slide Image Generation and Editing

Generating and editing presentation slides requires models to combine accurate text rendering, instruction following, visual grounding, aesthetic design, and precise editing within one canvas. Existing work covers only subsets of these capabilities and lacks large-scale slide-native supervision and diagnostic evaluatio...

VAttnPO: Visual Attention-Guided Policy Optimization

This work introduces VAttnPO (Visual Attention-Guided Policy Optimization), which uses answer-conditioned visual attention to refine token-level credit while preserving the verifier-derived trajectory-mean advantage to the GRPO sequence advantage.

REEL: Learning to Retrieve, Evaluate, and Evolve Visual Memory for Any Long-Horizon Multi-Shot Video Generation

Memory-based long-video generation aims to combine user control with long-range visual consistency. We organize this process into three functional components: a planner, an adapter, and a generator. Representative multi-shot systems couple memory to generator-specific interfaces or use predefined agent workflows, rathe...

Answer It or Not? Towards Prompt-Adapted Adversarial Images on Vision Language Models

With the advancement in language modeling, research on adversarial images has recently shifted from image classifiers to vision-language models (VLMs). Despite the new, text-prompt-driven nature of VLMs, we find that existing VLM adversaries have largely overlooked the dynamics of text prompts. In a typical use case, a...

VLA-GAUGE: Systematically Evaluating Generalization and Robustness in Vision-Language-Action Models

Vision-Language-Action models (VLAs) have achieved high success rates on familiar manipulation tasks, yet it remains unclear whether such scores reflect genuine zero-shot generalization and perturbation robustness. Existing evaluation frameworks provide limited capability-level diagnosis and combinatorial perturbation...

Heuristics are Not Enough: Calibrated and Corrected Caching for Video Diffusion Acceleration

Feature caching has become a mainstream training-free strategy for accelerating video diffusion models by reusing intermediate outputs across denoising steps. However, existing adaptive methods rely on heuristic difference measures misaligned with actual generation quality, employ a single global threshold that ignores...

VisExMEM: Visual Evidence-Based Explainable Multimodal Evaluation Metric

Current image-text evaluation often relies on a global score, which gives limited insight into which semantic details are supported by the image. Explainable metrics provide rationales, but the visual evidence supporting those rationales can still be difficult to verify. We introduce VisExMEM, a reference-free evaluato...

WorldRoPE: Probabilistic World-Centric Rotary Embedding for Multi-View Attention

Rotary Positional Embedding (RoPE) is widely used to encode relative positions in Transformers. In multi-view settings, however, patch coordinates are defined independently in each image: the same 3D point can therefore have different coordinates across views, making them insufficient for establishing cross-view corres...

BAT3R: Robust Online 3D Reconstruction with Bayesian Adaptive State Updates

Feed-forward transformer models have driven remarkable progress in 3D vision,yet their quadratic complexity renders them impractical for long video sequences. Streaming 3D reconstruction addresses this bottleneck by processing frames sequen?tially with constant memory. However, existing recurrent architectures inevitab...

Explicitly Aligned Multi-View Breast Cancer Risk Prediction from Variable-Length Screening Histories

Accurate breast cancer risk prediction from screening mammography is essential for improved risk stratification and personalized screening. It can benefit from both temporal breast tissue changes across longitudinal examinations and complementary anatomical information from craniocaudal (CC) and mediolateral oblique (M...

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.
