DynaPix: Can Vision-Language Models Identify the Exact Future?

Thong Nguyen, Vinh-Hien Do, Quynh Vo +2

Acting in a physical scene requires knowing its real later state, not a plausible one. Current evaluations often accept words or a realistic-looking image, so the predicted state i…

When In-Distribution Gains Fail: Evaluating Weak-to-Strong Reward Models under Preference Shift

Khoi Le, Tri Cao, Phong Nguyen +5

Weak-to-strong (W2S) generalization is a promising framework for scalable oversight, yet existing evaluations often test students under matched train-test distributions. Therefore,…

DemaFormer: Damped Exponential Moving Average Transformer with Energy-Based Modeling for Temporal Language Grounding

Thong Nguyen, Xiaobao Wu, Xinshuai Dong +3

Temporal Language Grounding seeks to localize video moments that semantically correspond to a natural language query. Recent advances employ the attention mechanism to learn the re…

Perception Without Engagement: Dissecting the Causal Discovery Deficit in LMMs

Jiafeng Liang, Zhihao Zhu, Zihan Zhang +7

Although Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) have achieved strong performance on general video understanding, their susceptibility to textual prior shortcuts during causal discovery has…
