JigShape: Evaluating Visual-Geometric Reasoning in VLMs through Jigsaw Puzzles

Shawn Li, Wei Yang, Jike Zhong +11

Jigsaw puzzle solving requires jointly reasoning about visual content and geometric constraints, yet existing benchmarks use rectangular cuts that create ambiguous ground truth in…

ORCA: ORgan-Centroid Aggregation for Training-Free 3D CT Visual Token Compression

Renjie Liang, Zijian Xu, Jinqian Pan +6

A 3D CT scan entering a vision-language model produces a long sequence of visual tokens, often thousands to tens of thousands per volume, and this sequence must be compressed befor…

Artificial Foveated Perception for Mitigating Shortcut Learning in Robotic Foundation Models

Xiatao Sun, Yuan Zhuang, Mateo Sanchez Lopez Negrete +9

Robotic foundation models still need task-specific fine-tuning before deployment, and the fine-tuned policies often break under modest changes in scene layout, lighting, or nearby…

Agent Safety Is Action Alignment

Shawn Li, Yue Zhao

Large language models increasingly act as agents: they call tools, move money, delete records, and send messages on a user's behalf. To keep them safe, practitioners imported the c…

FORTIS: Benchmarking Over-Privilege in Agent Skills

Shawn Li, Chenxiao Yu, Han Wang +8

Large language model agents increasingly operate through an intermediate skill layer that mediates between user intent and concrete task execution. This layer is widely treated as…

Geometry over Density: Few-Shot Cross-Domain OOD Detection

Shawn Li, You Qin, Jiate Li +4

Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection identifies test samples that fall outside a model's training distribution, a capability critical for safe deployment in high-stakes applications…

BabyVLM-V2: Toward Developmentally Grounded Pretraining and Benchmarking of Vision Foundation Models

Shengao Wang, Wenqi Wang, Zecheng Wang +20

Early children's developmental trajectories set up a natural goal for sample-efficient pretraining of vision foundation models. We introduce BabyVLM-V2, a developmentally grounded…

Complexity from Adaptive-Symmetries Breaking: Global Minima in the Statistical Mechanics of Deep Neural Networks

Shawn W. M. Li

An antithetical concept, adaptive symmetry, to conservative symmetry in physics is proposed to understand the deep neural networks (DNNs). It characterizes the invariance of varian…
