Hallucination remains a significant challenge in Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs). Existing training-free methods generally mitigate hallucinations through contrastive decoding or visual enhancement, often increasing the relative influence of visual evidence during generation. This raises a fundamental question: Ca …

World-model controllers rely on action-conditioned dynamics for prediction and planning, yet real control systems often execute commands asynchronously due to communication delay, packet loss, reordering, and actuator buffering. We study how asynchronous execution changes the action semantics assumed within world-model …

On-policy distillation (OPD) combines student-generated rollouts with dense token-level supervision from a teacher, but providing such supervision for every rollout requires substantial teacher computation. We introduce Success-Referenced On-Policy Distillation (SR-OPD), which reduces this cost by selecting which promp …

Test-time reinforcement learning enables vision-language models (VLMs) to adapt using unlabeled inputs. However, repeated sampling under fixed visual conditions can reinforce shared perceptual errors, while sequence-level rewards fail to isolate visual perception the foundational bottleneck that anchors multimodal reas …

Existing video deraining methods typically exploit neighboring frames through either explicit alignment or implicit spatiotemporal aggregation. Explicit alignment relies on accurate motion estimation, which can become unreliable under dense rain, while implicit aggregation avoids alignment but lacks explicit guidance o …

Accurately isolating disease-related features from confounding covariates (e.g., age, gender, site) and individual variations remains a fundamental challenge in medical image classification. Traditional regression-based approaches may ignore non-linear relations between image features and true covariates. To overcome t …
