Look Where You Say You're Looking: Self-Grounded Attention for Visual Reasoning

Uri Berger, Gal Chechik, Gal Dalal

We introduce Self-Saliency, a method for training Vision-Language Models (VLMs) to increase the alignment between their visual attention and the image regions mentioned in their re…

All modalities are equal, but video is more equal: Closing the Cross-Attention Gap in Joint Video Generation

Ohad Rahamim, Dvir Samuel, Idan Schwartz +1

Video is a rich representation of a physical event, capturing appearance, geometry, motion, and temporal evolution. Other modalities, such as 3D body motion or audio, encode narrow…

Compositional Video Generation via Inference-Time Guidance

Ariel Shaulov, Eitan Shaar, Amit Edenzon +2

Text-to-video diffusion models generate realistic videos, but often fail on prompts requiring fine-grained compositional understanding, such as relations between entities, attribut…

Simulating clinical interventions with a generative multimodal model of human physiology

Guy Lutsker, Gal Sapir, Jordi Merino +7

Understanding how human health changes over time, and why responses to interventions vary between individuals, remains a central challenge in medicine. Here we present HealthFormer…

More Test-Time Compute Can Hurt: Overestimation Bias in LLM Beam Search

Gal Dalal, Assaf Hallak, Gal Chechik +1

Wider beam search should improve LLM reasoning, but when should you stop widening? Prior work on beam width selection has focused on inference efficiency \citep{qin2025dsbd, freita…

Latent Transfer Attack: Adversarial Examples via Generative Latent Spaces

Eitan Shaar, Ariel Shaulov, Yalcin Tur +2

Adversarial attacks are a central tool for probing the robustness of modern vision models, yet most methods optimize perturbations directly in pixel space under or $\…

Spanning the Visual Analogy Space with a Weight Basis of LoRAs

Hila Manor, Rinon Gal, Haggai Maron +2

Visual analogy learning enables image editing via demonstration rather than textual description, allowing users to specify complex transformations difficult to articulate in words.…

Expert Merging in Sparse Mixture of Experts with Nash Bargaining

Dung V. Nguyen, Anh T. Nguyen, Minh H. Nguyen +6

Existing expert merging strategies for Sparse Mixture of Experts (SMoE) typically rely on input-dependent or input-independent averaging of expert parameters, but often lack a prin…

Data-Driven Loss Functions for Inference-Time Optimization in Text-to-Image

Sapir Esther Yiflach, Yuval Atzmon, Gal Chechik

Text-to-image diffusion models can generate stunning visuals, yet they often fail at tasks children find trivial--like placing a dog to the right of a teddy bear rather than to the…

Per-Query Visual Concept Learning

Ori Malca, Dvir Samuel, Gal Chechik

Visual concept learning, also known as Text-to-image personalization, is the process of teaching new concepts to a pretrained model. This has numerous applications from product pla…

Knowing Before Saying: LLM Representations Encode Information About Chain-of-Thought Success Before Completion

Anum Afzal, Florian Matthes, Gal Chechik +1

We investigate whether the success of a zero-shot Chain-of-Thought (CoT) process can be predicted before completion. We discover that a probing classifier, based on LLM representat…
