Temporal Evidence Routing with Structured Visual Evidence for TimeLogicQA
Yuyang Sun, Yongliang Wu, Xingyu Zhu +8
TimeLogicQA evaluates whether video question answering systems can reason over temporal relations such as event existence, ordering, persistence, boundary conditions, and overlap.…
Adaptive Dense Evidence Refinement for Video Relational Reasoning for VRR-QA Challenge
Yuyang Sun, Yongliang Wu, Xingyu Zhu +8
VRR-QA evaluates whether video-language systems can infer spatial, temporal, viewpoint, depth, and visibility relations that are not always resolved by a single frame. We present a…
Dual-Route Top-K Retrieval with 1v1 VLM Reranking for the CoVR-R
Yuyang Sun, Yongliang Wu, Xingyu Zhu +8
We describe \emph{Dual-Route Top-K Retrieval with 1v1 VLM Reranking} for the CoVR-R challenge. The method treats composed video retrieval as two coupled problems: finding a suffici…
Stop When Reasoning Converges: Semantic-Preserving Early Exit for Reasoning Models
Dehai Min, Giovanni Vaccarino, Huiyi Chen +3
Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) achieve strong performance by generating long chains of thought (CoT), but often overthink, continuing to reason after a solution has already stabiliz…
Auto-Rubric as Reward: From Implicit Preferences to Explicit Multimodal Generative Criteria
Juanxi Tian, Fengyuan Liu, Jiaming Han +6
Aligning multimodal generative models with human preferences demands reward signals that respect the compositional, multi-dimensional structure of human judgment. Prevailing RLHF a…
