Safety alignment in Large Language Models (LLMs) remains vulnerable to backdoor attacks. Existing LLM backdoors are almost all input-centric: activation depends on explicit trigger patterns in the user input, so modern guardrails are built to sanitize the input space. We challenge this assumption with a novel answer-si …
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards has substantially advanced multimodal reasoning, yet it remains fundamentally limited by ambiguous token-level credit assignment. While high-entropy token heuristics encourage possibility exploration, naively extending them to video reasoning tends to induce lengthy reason …
Scaling has become a primary driver of progress in language and vision foundation models, yet its role in precise correspondence matching remains underexplored. In this work, we present Flow Any Scene Transformer (FAST), a scalable correspondence model driven by two key insights. First, we reveal that the query-key pro …
Vision-language-action (VLA) models struggle to reuse recurring interactions in unseen tasks. Our diagnostic study reveals that reliable task completion does not imply consistent execution of constituent atomic actions across task contexts. We present LexiconVLA, a retrievable atomic-action lexicon for cross-task reuse …
Physical active vision allows robots to change their viewpoint when task-relevant observations become unreliable, yet existing manipulation benchmarks provide limited support for studying how policies recover from occlusion during execution. We introduce BAVO-Bench (Bimanual Active Vision under Occlusion), a bimanual a …
Feed-forward models regress dense 3D point trajectories directly from monocular video, yet the residual after global alignment is substantial and lacks a structural explanation. Measured on dynamic query points across models and datasets, the error concentrates along the view direction, while the scale correction each …
