Binding Visual Features Point by Point

Udith Haputhanthri, Declan Campbell, Rim Assouel +2

Despite success on standard benchmarks, vision language models display persistent failures on tasks involving processing of multi-object scenes, including many tasks that are relat…

PGT: Procedurally Generated Tasks for improving visual grounding in MLLMs

Rim Assouel, Amir Bar, Michal Drozdzal +1

Despite remarkable progress in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), these models still struggle with fine-grained understanding tasks. In this work, we propose Procedurally Ge…

Visual symbolic mechanisms: Emergent symbol processing in vision language models

Rim Assouel, Declan Campbell, Yoshua Bengio +1

To accurately process a visual scene, observers must bind features together to represent individual objects. This capacity is necessary, for instance, to distinguish an image conta…

Object-centric Binding in Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining

Rim Assouel, Pietro Astolfi, Florian Bordes +2

Recent advances in vision language models (VLM) have been driven by contrastive models such as CLIP, which learn to associate visual information with their corresponding text descr…

The BrowserGym Ecosystem for Web Agent Research

Thibault Le Sellier De Chezelles, Maxime Gasse, Alexandre Drouin +17

The BrowserGym ecosystem addresses the growing need for efficient evaluation and benchmarking of web agents, particularly those leveraging automation and Large Language Models (LLM…

Action abstractions for amortized sampling

Oussama Boussif, Léna Néhale Ezzine, Joseph D Viviano +6

As trajectories sampled by policies used by reinforcement learning (RL) and generative flow networks (GFlowNets) grow longer, credit assignment and exploration become more challeng…

An Introduction to Vision-Language Modeling

Florian Bordes, Richard Yuanzhe Pang, Anurag Ajay +38

Following the recent popularity of Large Language Models (LLMs), several attempts have been made to extend them to the visual domain. From having a visual assistant that could guid…

OC-NMN: Object-centric Compositional Neural Module Network for Generative Visual Analogical Reasoning

Rim Assouel, Pau Rodriguez, Perouz Taslakian +2

A key aspect of human intelligence is the ability to imagine -- composing learned concepts in novel ways -- to make sense of new scenarios. Such capacity is not yet attained for ma…

Image-to-image Mapping with Many Domains by Sparse Attribute Transfer

Matthew Amodio, Rim Assouel, Victor Schmidt +3

Unsupervised image-to-image translation consists of learning a pair of mappings between two domains without known pairwise correspondences between points. The current convention is…

DEFactor: Differentiable Edge Factorization-based Probabilistic Graph Generation

Rim Assouel, Mohamed Ahmed, Marwin H Segler +2

Generating novel molecules with optimal properties is a crucial step in many industries such as drug discovery. Recently, deep generative models have shown a promising way of perfo…
