CLIP-like vision-language models remain a cornerstone of multimodal systems, yet their scores stay near chance on directed spatial relations, such as whether one object is left of another. We call this failure readout blindness and analyze, theoretically and empirically, why deployed scores miss the direction: when sco …
Electroencephalography (EEG) is recorded continuously over hours, with relevant dynamics spanning timescales from milliseconds to hours. Most EEG foundation models nevertheless process fixed windows independently, limiting their ability to capture information encoded in long-timescale dynamics. State-space architecture …
Latent diffusion models now dominate medical image generation, and every such pipeline rests on a \emph{tokenizer} that compresses images into the latent codes for image generation to operate on. Thereby, the tokenizer choice bounds every downstream task from reconstruction fidelity and generation quality to the repres …
