Watch-Think-Interact: Bootstrapping Long-Horizon Multi-Turn Streaming Video Reasoning with Reinforcement Learning

Ziheng Huang, Yicheng Bao, Xueheng Li +8

Streaming video assistance requires models to answer asynchronous questions from an observed prefix under a fixed context budget. Existing approaches model response timing or compr…

Mandela-Bench: Multimodal Models Remember Canonical Images Instead of Seeing Them

Yicheng Bao, Zhenkun Gao, Xiahui Guo +7

Historical photographs and other canonical images can now be edited seamlessly with a single instruction, often leaving no reliable pixel-level trace. In such cases, the only evide…

SPARED: Reasoning-Based AI-Generated Image Detection via Adversarially Edited Data

Yicheng Bao, Xiahui Guo, Xuhong Wang +1

Detecting AI-generated images is only half the task: a deployed detector must also justify its verdict, yet existing detectors inherit three failure modes from their training data:…
