In text-guided image editing, describing the desired change is often straightforward, but identifying the intended object or region can be cumbersome, especially when several objects look alike. We introduce a new image editing interface that lets users place spatial marks and optional short notes directly on the image …

Video creation spans text-to-video (T2V), image-to-video (I2V), and condition-based generation, yet video diffusion models remain costly because they repeatedly evaluate large backbones during sampling. Distribution matching distillation (DMD) reduces this cost, but its reverse Kullback--Leibler (KL) objective can prov …

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) suffer from hallucinations, creating a critical need for Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) to ensure reliable deployment. However, existing approaches struggle to detect uncertainty caused by superficial associations, especially when the query-relevant signal is weak. We mainly at …

Reliable shelf monitoring is an important capability for retail automation, yet existing out-of-stock detection methods mainly operate in image space and lack metric 3D localization for downstream robotic systems. We formulate shelf monitoring as object-level 3D change detection: given two RGB-D observations captured a …

While Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models excel in static tasks, they struggle in dynamic environments where objects are in motion (e.g., conveyor belt manipulation). We identify three fundamental limitations hindering current VLAs in these scenarios: the \textbf{perception gap}, where static visual inputs lack tempora …

Vision-language-action (VLA) models have demonstrated strong capabilities in robotic manipulation, but they are typically developed and evaluated with all camera streams available throughout task execution. When a camera stops delivering frames during task execution, the policy must continue acting without access to su …

Quantization errors in video diffusion transformers can be amplified or attenuated by subsequent denoising updates, making local reconstruction error an incomplete predictor of final impact. We introduce PulseQuant, a 4-bit post-training quantization method that combines trajectory sensitivity with activation geometry …

World Action Models (WAMs) acquire behavioral priors by modeling future scene evolution, but predicting detailed futures in pixel or latent space incurs substantial cost. Recent evidence that co-training gains persist without test-time generation raises a question: what must a WAM learn to improve control? We introduce …

Users commonly combine multiple Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) adapters to personalize images with different subjects, styles, and visual attributes. Yet inspecting adapters individually does not establish the safety of their composition. We identify and characterize a pair-conditioned attack in text-to-image diffusion: in …
