Video world models track objects they can see; we ask what they keep of objects they cannot. We hide an object from a frozen V-JEPA 2 predictor and compare its prediction for the hidden region with the encoder's representation of two worlds that differ only inside that region. The predictor's decision keeps a stationar...
Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TC3) requires responders to connect visual observations of injuries and interventions with established clinical guidance. Developing vision-language models to support this process requires supervision that links visible evidence to traceable doctrine. We present TC3-VQA, a dataset constru...

The evolution of machine learning has progressively changed where intelligence resides in an AI system. In conventional machine learning the task, data representation, labels and model architecture were tightly coupled, so data preparation was narrow, schema-bound and visible. Generative AI decouples the model from any...

Unified multimodal models (UMMs) integrate understanding and generation, yet their generative behavior is rarely governed by what they understand about the task. We formalize visual abstention: when a requested visual transformation is impossible under the task's rules, the model should recognize that no valid solution...

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated strong performance on vision-language tasks, yet their internal visual representations remain difficult to interpret. Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) provide a scalable way to decompose dense model activations into sparse, interpretable features. However, existing S...

World models predict future transitions from observations and actions. Existing works predominantly focus on image generation only. Visual feature-based world models, on the other hand, predict future visual features instead of raw video pixels, offering a promising alternative that is more efficient and less prone to...

Initial experiments show that VNN based multi-layered perceptrons outperform their equivalent deep learning variant on basic tasks, while being more parameter efficient and are capable of learning new types of tasks.
VLLR is proposed, a dense reward framework combining an extrinsic reward from Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for task progress recognition, and an intrinsic reward based on policy self-certainty based on policy self-certainty for PPO finetuning.

Large-scale maps of field boundaries are essential for agricultural monitoring tasks. Existing deep learning approaches for satellite-based field mapping are sensitive to illumination, spatial scale, and changes in geographic location. We conduct the first systematic evaluation of segmentation and geospatial foundation...

Many multimodal tasks, such as image captioning and visual question answering, require vision-language models (VLMs) to bind objects with their properties and spatial relations. Yet it remains unclear where and how such associations are computed within VLMs. In this work, we show that VLMs rely on two concurrent mechan...

In many real-world applications, ensuring the robustness and stability of deep neural networks (DNNs) is crucial, particularly for image classification tasks that encounter various input perturbations. While Mixup-based data augmentation techniques have been widely adopted to enhance the resilience of trained models ag...

Contemporary machine learning struggles to learn continually, reuse prior knowledge, and expose a comprehensible internal structure. A recently proposed developmental, gradient-free learning framework addresses these limitations by learning a discrete, topological model of its inputs through local variation and selecti...

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.
