When No Answer Is Correct: Diagnosing Absent Answer Detection for MLLMs in Video Understanding
Yiheng Wang, Yueqian Lin, Lichen Zhu +3
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have made substantial advancements in video understanding, yet the reliability of their responses remains underexplored. This work presents…
Latent Bridge: Feature Delta Prediction for Efficient Dual-System Vision-Language-Action Model Inference
Yudong Liu, Yuan Li, Zijia Tang +12
Dual-system Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models achieve state-of-the-art robotic manipulation but are bottlenecked by the VLM backbone, which must execute at every control step whi…
Query-Conditioned Evidential Keyframe Sampling for MLLM-Based Long-Form Video Understanding
Yiheng Wang, Lichen Zhu, Yueqian Lin +4
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown strong performance on video question answering, but their application to long-form videos is constrained by limited context leng…
LLaViDA: A Large Language Vision Driving Assistant for Explicit Reasoning and Enhanced Trajectory Planning
Yudong Liu, Spencer Hallyburton, Jiwoo Kim +8
Trajectory planning is a fundamental yet challenging component of autonomous driving. End-to-end planners frequently falter under adverse weather, unpredictable human behavior, or…
Focus: A Streaming Concentration Architecture for Efficient Vision-Language Models
Chiyue Wei, Cong Guo, Junyao Zhang +8
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have demonstrated strong performance on tasks such as video captioning and visual question answering. However, their growing scale and video-level inp…
Voice Evaluation of Reasoning Ability: Diagnosing the Modality-Induced Performance Gap
Yueqian Lin, Zhengmian Hu, Qinsi Wang +6
We present Voice Evaluation of Reasoning Ability (VERA), a benchmark for evaluating reasoning ability in voice-interactive systems under real-time conversational constraints. VERA…
