In few-shot industrial anomaly detection, the few normal target images provide no direct defect supervision, making anomaly prompts difficult to learn from these samples alone. Some vision-language methods therefore use manually specified descriptions to supply explicit anomaly semantics. However, constructing these de …

Existing adaptive reasoning methods for driving Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models primarily focus on whether to reason, overlooking how reasoning should differ across driving situations. Our key insight is that while scene complexity informs reasoning depth, dynamic risk is equally critical for deciding how to reason …

Tampered Text Detection (TTD) is essential for safeguarding document authenticity in security-critical workflows. Existing expert models are effective at capturing subtle manipulation traces but often generalize poorly across diverse document domains, while Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) offer stronger semant …

World models learn internal representations of environment dynamics to predict future states, enabling agents to optimize action plans without physical interactions. However, developing world models that genuinely internalize underlying causal physical laws to explicitly reason about action preconditions and subsequent …

Document rerankers determine what evidence reaches the downstream model in RAG and deep research, yet mainstream rerankers select by relevance matching, and individually relevant documents rarely constitute the complete, complementary, non-redundant set a complex information need demands. Prior work rewards a set by it …

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated promising performance in log anomaly detection, yet how their adaptation strategies, architectures, and deployment configurations affect detection effectiveness remains insufficiently understood. To investigate these factors, we conduct a systematic empirical analysis acro …

Providing personalized exoskeleton assistance across varying walking speeds remains challenging. Existing online optimization methods are sample-inefficient, requiring extensive human-in-the-loop (HIL) evaluations to optimize the entire assistive torque profile. Sim-to-real reinforcement learning (RL) offers a promisin …
