Generative recommenders decode items from a user's interaction history, but offer no way for users to correct a recommendation that misses their current intent. Adding conversation is natural since items and words share same output space, yet training the model to converse may overwrite the history-to-item mapping it r …

Model merging offers a promising solution for combining multiple fine-tuned checkpoints into a single model through parameter arithmetic. However, finding optimal merging coefficients requires an extensive search that becomes prohibitively expensive as models scale in both size and number, due to high memory requiremen …

Rapid progress in video generation has led to a plethora of models that differ substantially in capability and generation cost. This raises a natural question: can each request be efficiently routed to an appropriate model? We find that even when the consensus of the other annotators is used as an oracle, it agrees wit …

Existing synthetic image evaluators typically provide only a scalar quality score and do not identify the image regions that support it. We introduce VIEScore2, a unified evaluator for image generation and editing tasks with optional conditioning images. VIEScore2 represents an image as an N x N grid and jointly predic …
