Adaptive Bidirectional Task Interaction for Joint Segmentation and Classification of Breast Ultrasound

Joint lesion segmentation and tissue classification in breast ultrasound are usually trained with a shared encoder, so the two branches stop exchanging information once their decoders separate. That is exactly where boundary detail and semantic evidence are most complementary. The proposed method restores this exchange...

Large Pretraining Datasets Don't Guarantee Robustness after Fine-Tuning in Image Classification

It is found that though continual learning methods help, fine-tuning reduces robustness across pretrained models, suggesting that starting with the strongest foundation model is not necessarily the best approach for performance on specialist tasks.

Ego2World: Compiling Egocentric Cooking Videos into Executable Worlds for Belief-State Planning

Ego2World is introduced, an executable benchmark that turns egocentric cooking videos into executable symbolic worlds governed by graph-transition rules and shows that persistent belief memory improves task completion while reducing repeated visual exploration, suggesting that belief maintenance should be a first-class...

4D-HOF: Hand-Object Flow Matching for Feed-Forward 4D Interaction Reconstruction

Existing methods for 4D hand-object reconstruction often rely on costly per-sequence optimization, while generative approaches typically synthesize interactions from random noise, which can lead to unstable interaction prediction. We introduce 4D-HOF, a feed-forward framework that reconstructs 4D hand-object interactio...

DepthWorld: 3D World Model for Robot Manipulation

World models offer a data-driven alternative to traditional simulators for robotics, with applications spanning policy evaluation, improvement, and planning. All of these uses depend on faithful 3D geometry, yet current video-based world models are trained on RGB alone and produce rollouts that look correct frame-by-fr...

WorldSonus: Bringing Sound to Worlds

WorldSonus, an interactive video-to-audio framework designed for real-time spatial sound synthesis in world models, generalizes effectively to open-domain video-to-audio benchmarks, matching or outperforming state-of-the-art bidirectional models in both acoustic quality and spatial alignment.

Selective Transfer of RL Updates for Visual Reasoning

This work isolates the RL-stage update, retains its dominant matrix-wise directions with magnitude preservation, and transfers them to the language modules of a VLM, which improves full-update interpolation in 12 of 15 comparisons, including an 8.55 percentage-point MathVision gain on the Qwen recipient.

MedCORE: Criteria-Grounded Clinical Reasoning for Interpretable Medical Image Diagnosis

Clinical diagnosis is inherently a structured reasoning process, yet existing deep learning models often bypass this structure by mapping image features directly to disease labels without explicitly interrogating the morphological and textural criteria that clinicians systematically evaluate. This limits diagnostic tra...

Knee3DVLM: Dual-Sequence Full-Volume Vision-Language Modeling for Comprehensive Knee MRI Assessment

Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly being applied to three-dimensional medical imaging, but their application to knee MRI remains limited, particularly for interpreting the complementary sequences used in clinical practice. We introduce Knee3DVLM, a sequence-aware VLM that uses full-volume DESS and fluid-sen...

GeoPID: Decomposing and Steering Visual Information in Vision-Language Models

While recent vision-language models (VLMs) have shown outstanding performance across diverse applications, they tend to under-use visual information and over-rely on textual context. In this work, we propose \textsc{GeoPID}, a training-free framework that analyzes multimodal information within VLMs from a geometric per...

Transferable Spatial Temporal Coherence Adversarial Attack on Black-Box Vision Language Models for Autonomous Driving

The rapid integration of Vision Language Models (VLMs) into sensitive systems introduces critical safety vulnerabilities that remain unexplored in exist studies. While adversarial attack robustness has been extensively studied for image-based models, the susceptibility of VLMs to temporally-aware adversarial attacks ag...

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.
