AdaTurn: Budget-Aware Test-Time Scaling for Active Visual Perception Agents
Susan Liang, Chao Huang, Filippos Bellos +3
Active visual agents solve fine-grained image tasks by interleaving reasoning with image-grounding actions across multiple turns. However, deployment-time rollout budgets are rarel…
SurgAtlas: A Large-Scale Surgical Video-Language Dataset with 2,391 Hours of Open and Minimally Invasive Surgery
Filippos Bellos, Andre S. Gala-Garza, Miaowei Wang +8
We introduce SurgAtlas, the largest surgical video-language dataset to date, comprising 15,291 videos (2,391 hours) spanning 18 surgical specialties and over 5,000 procedure types,…
Can VLMs Truly Forget? Benchmarking Training-Free Visual Concept Unlearning
Zhangyun Tan, Zeliang Zhang, Susan Liang +3
VLMs trained on web-scale data retain sensitive and copyrighted visual concepts that deployment may require removing. Training-based unlearning methods share a structural flaw: fin…
When to Think and When to Look: Uncertainty-Guided Lookback
Jing Bi, Filippos Bellos, Junjia Guo +8
Test-time thinking (that is, generating explicit intermediate reasoning chains) is known to boost performance in large language models and has recently shown strong gains for large…
TDMM-LM: Bridging Facial Understanding and Animation via Language Models
Luchuan Song, Pinxin Liu, Haiyang Liu +7
Text-guided human body animation has advanced rapidly, yet facial animation lags due to the scarcity of well-annotated, text-paired facial corpora. To close this gap, we leverage f…
Omni-Judge: Can Omni-LLMs Serve as Human-Aligned Judges for Text-Conditioned Audio-Video Generation?
Susan Liang, Chao Huang, Filippos Bellos +7
State-of-the-art text-to-video generation models such as Sora 2 and Veo 3 can now produce high-fidelity videos with synchronized audio directly from a textual prompt, marking a new…
