Controlling quantum transport by measurement-rate modulation
Jesús Casado-Pascual, Luis Octavio Castaños-Cervantes
Temporal modulation of the measurement rate provides a powerful mechanism for controlling open-system dynamics through measurement backaction. We demonstrate this mechanism in a mi…
AcoustiTrace: When Plausible Sound Violates Physics
Shiyang Li, Yuewen Cao, Yihao Liu +4
Recent audio-video generators can produce semantically plausible and apparently synchronized sound, yet may still violate the acoustic processes implied by visible events and envir…
Are Text-to-Image Models Inductivist Turkeys? A Counterfactual Benchmark for Causal Reasoning
Jiayi Lei, Yuandong Pu, Xingyu Han +8
Text-to-image (T2I) generation models have achieved remarkable progress in producing visually realistic images from natural language prompts. Yet it remains unclear whether their s…
Faithful, Enriched, and Precise: Benchmarking Natural-Science Illustration Generation by T2I models
Yifan Chang, Jiaxin Ai, Jianwen Sun +9
Scientific illustrations are essential tools for communicating research findings, especially in natural science, where they visualize complex concepts and processes. As Text-to-Ima…
UniMedVL: Unifying Medical Multimodal Understanding and Generation through Observation-Knowledge-Analysis
Junzhi Ning, Wei Li, Cheng Tang +24
Medical workflows routinely combine reading images with producing visual and textual outputs, making both image understanding and generation central to medical AI. Most existing sy…
Omni-Weather: A Unified Multimodal Model for Weather Radar Understanding and Generation
Zhiwang Zhou, Yuandong Pu, Xuming He +10
Weather modeling requires both accurate prediction and mechanistic interpretation, yet existing methods treat these goals in isolation, separating generation from understanding. To…
