Uncovering Competency Gaps in Large Language Models and Their Benchmarks

Maty Bohacek, Nino Scherrer, Nicholas Dufour +3

The evaluation of large language models relies heavily on standardized benchmarks. These benchmarks provide useful aggregated metrics, but can obscure (i) particular sub-areas wher…

Uncovering Conceptual Blindspots in Generative Image Models Using Sparse Autoencoders

Matyas Bohacek, Thomas Fel, Maneesh Agrawala +1

Despite their impressive performance, generative image models trained on large-scale datasets frequently fail to produce images with seemingly simple concepts -- e.g., human hands…

Towards an AI-Driven Video-Based American Sign Language Dictionary: Exploring Design and Usage Experience with Learners

Saad Hassan, Matyas Bohacek, Chaelin Kim +1

Searching for unfamiliar American Sign Language (ASL) signs is challenging for learners because, unlike spoken languages, they cannot type a text-based query to look up an unfamili…

Large Language Models and Provenance Metadata for Determining the Relevance of Images and Videos in News Stories

Tomas Peterka, Matyas Bohacek

The most effective misinformation campaigns are multimodal, often combining text with images and videos taken out of context -- or fabricating them entirely -- to support a given n…

Can Pose Transfer Models Generate Realistic Human Motion?

Vaclav Knapp, Matyas Bohacek

Recent pose-transfer methods aim to generate temporally consistent and fully controllable videos of human action where the motion from a reference video is reenacted by a new ident…
