Personalized Image Generation with Reasoning and Reflection
Bo Ni, Ngoc N. Tran, Qinwen Ge +10
Personalized image generation has remained narrowly focused on conditional synthesis from curated visual exemplars, rather than capturing who a user is. In practice, however, a use…
DuplexSpeechBench-Document Grounding: Benchmarking Document Grounding and Hallucinations in Voice Agents
Puneet Mathur, Nedim Lipka, Zeyu Jin +1
Voice agents enable low-latency, natural interaction, yet their ability to faithfully ground responses in external documents remains underexplored. We introduce DuplexSpeechBench-D…
A Glance Is All You Need: Single-Pass Fine-Grained Image Captioning with SimLoss
Suryaansh Jain, Rahasya Barkur, Vishal G +8
An image may be worth a thousand words, but most captioning models describe it in only a few. Modern vision-language models produce fluent high-level captions, yet routinely miss t…
KnowSim: Evaluating Information Calibration in LLM Assistants with User Simulators that Learn
Yoonjoo Lee, Hyoungwook Jin, Tae Soo Kim +3
To effectively collaborate with users on knowledge-intensive tasks, Large Language Models (LLMs) must perform information calibration: matching content to a user's evolving underst…
DIAGRAMS: A Review Framework for Reasoning-Level Attribution in Diagram QA
Anirudh Iyengar Kaniyar Narayana Iyengar, Tampu Ravi Kumar, Manan Suri +4
Diagram question answering (Diagram QA) requires reasoning-level attribution that links each question-answer pair to all visual regions needed to derive the answer, rather than onl…
DRAGON: A Benchmark for Evidence-Grounded Visual Reasoning over Diagrams
Anirudh Iyengar Kaniyar Narayana Iyengar, Tampu Ravi Kumar, Gaurav Najpande +4
Diagram question answering (DQA) requires models to interpret structured visual representations such as charts, maps, infographics, circuit schematics, and scientific diagrams. Rec…
Sparse Personalized Text Generation with Multi-Trajectory Reasoning
Bo Ni, Haowei Fu, Qinwen Ge +10
As Large Language Models (LLMs) advance, personalization has become a key mechanism for tailoring outputs to individual user needs. However, most existing methods rely heavily on d…
A Survey on LLM-based Conversational User Simulation
Bo Ni, Leyao Wang, Yu Wang +27
User simulation has long played a vital role in computer science due to its potential to support a wide range of applications. Language, as the primary medium of human communicatio…
Test-Time Strategies for More Efficient and Accurate Agentic RAG
Brian Zhang, Deepti Guntur, Zhiyang Zuo +7
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems face challenges with complex, multihop questions, and agentic frameworks such as Search-R1 (Jin et al., 2025), which operates iterative…
Cluster-R1: Large Reasoning Models Are Instruction-following Clustering Agents
Peijun Qing, Puneet Mathur, Nedim Lipka +5
General-purpose embedding models excel at recognizing semantic similarities but fail to capture the characteristics of texts specified by user instructions. In contrast, instructio…
Partial Policy Gradients for RL in LLMs
Puneet Mathur, Branislav Kveton, Subhojyoti Mukherjee +1
Reinforcement learning is a framework for learning to act sequentially in an unknown environment. We propose a natural approach for modeling policy structure in policy gradients. T…
InfinityStory: Unlimited Video Generation with World Consistency and Character-Aware Shot Transitions
Mohamed Elmoghany, Liangbing Zhao, Xiaoqian Shen +27
Generating long-form storytelling videos with consistent visual narratives remains a significant challenge in video synthesis. We present a novel framework, dataset, and a model th…
TraceBack: Multi-Agent Decomposition for Fine-Grained Table Attribution
Tejas Anvekar, Junha Park, Rajat Jha +4
Question answering (QA) over structured tables requires not only accurate answers but also transparency about which cells support them. Existing table QA systems rarely provide fin…
Human-Aligned MLLM Judges for Fine-Grained Image Editing Evaluation: A Benchmark, Framework, and Analysis
Runzhou Liu, Hailey Weingord, Sejal Mittal +18
Evaluating image editing models remains challenging due to the coarse granularity and limited interpretability of traditional metrics, which often fail to capture aspects important…
Blind to the Human Touch: Overlap Bias in LLM-Based Summary Evaluation
Jiangnan Fang, Cheng-Tse Liu, Hanieh Deilamsalehy +5
Large language model (LLM) judges have often been used alongside traditional, algorithm-based metrics for tasks like summarization because they better capture semantic information,…
Reasoning-Based Personalized Generation for Users with Sparse Data
Bo Ni, Branislav Kveton, Samyadeep Basu +14
Large Language Model (LLM) personalization holds great promise for tailoring responses by leveraging personal context and history. However, real-world users usually possess sparse…
