Staying VIGILant: Mitigating Visual Laziness via Counterfactual Visual Alignment in MLLMs
Xi Xiao, Chen Liu, Chih-Ting Liao +9
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) extend large language models (LLMs) with visual perception, enabling joint reasoning over images and text. Despite inheriting strong reason…
LATERN: Test-Time Context-Aware Explainable Video Anomaly Detection
Mitchell Piehl, Muchao Ye
Vision-language models (VLMs) have recently emerged as a promising paradigm for video anomaly detection (VAD) due to their strong visual reasoning ability and natural language-base…
EquiMem: Calibrating Shared Memory in Multi-Agent Debate via Game-Theoretic Equilibrium
Yuqiao Meng, Sakshi Sunil Narvekar, Luoxi Tang +4
Multi-agent debate (MAD) systems increasingly rely on shared memory to support long-horizon reasoning, but this convenience opens a critical vulnerability: a single corrupted entry…
OracleTSC: Oracle-Informed Reward Hurdle and Uncertainty Regularization for Traffic Signal Control
Darryl Jacob, Xinyu Liu, Muchao Ye +2
Transparent decision-making is essential for traffic signal control (TSC) systems to earn public trust. However, traditional reinforcement learning-based TSC methods function as bl…
ER-MIA: Black-Box Adversarial Memory Injection Attacks on Long-Term Memory-Augmented Large Language Models
Mitchell Piehl, Zhaohan Xi, Zuobin Xiong +2
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly augmented with long-term memory systems to overcome finite context windows and enable persistent reasoning across interactions. Howeve…
Understanding Real-World Traffic Safety through RoadSafe365 Benchmark
Xinyu Liu, Darryl C. Jacob, Yuxin Liu +4
Although recent traffic benchmarks have advanced multimodal data analysis, they generally lack systematic evaluation aligned with official safety standards. To fill this gap, we in…
