Understanding How MLLMs Describe Artworks Using Token Activation Maps

Nicola Fanelli, Pasquale De Marinis, Raffaele Scaringi +3

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) describe artworks with remarkable fluency, yet the visual reasoning behind their outputs remains opaque. When an MLLM names a style, identi…

Analyzing the Correlation Between Hallucinations and Knowledge Conflicts in Large Language Models

Lucrezia Laraspata, Giovanna Castellano, Gennaro Vessio

Hallucinations -- factually incorrect or unverifiable outputs -- remain one of the most challenging limitations of Large Language Models (LLMs), especially in knowledge-intensive t…

Art2Mus: Artwork-to-Music Generation via Visual Conditioning and Large-Scale Cross-Modal Alignment

Ivan Rinaldi, Matteo Mendula, Nicola Fanelli +4

Music generation has advanced markedly through multimodal deep learning, enabling models to synthesize audio from text and, more recently, from images. However, existing image-cond…

DistillFSS: Synthesizing Few-Shot Knowledge into a Lightweight Segmentation Model

Pasquale De Marinis, Pieter M. Blok, Uzay Kaymak +3

Cross-Domain Few-Shot Semantic Segmentation (CD-FSS) seeks to segment unknown classes in unseen domains using only a few annotated examples. This setting is inherently challenging:…

Take a Peek: Efficient Encoder Adaptation for Few-Shot Semantic Segmentation via LoRA

Pasquale De Marinis, Gennaro Vessio, Giovanna Castellano

Few-shot semantic segmentation (FSS) aims to segment novel classes in query images using only a small annotated support set. While prior research has mainly focused on improving de…

Matching-Based Few-Shot Semantic Segmentation Models Are Interpretable by Design

Pasquale De Marinis, Uzay Kaymak, Rogier Brussee +2

Few-Shot Semantic Segmentation (FSS) models achieve strong performance in segmenting novel classes with minimal labeled examples, yet their decision-making processes remain largely…
