DRIFT: Transferring Reasoning Priors for Efficient MLLM Fine-Tuning
Chao Huang, Zeliang Zhang, Jiang Liu +7
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have made rapid progress, yet their reasoning ability often lags behind strong text-only LLMs. Bridging this gap typically requires large-s…
When to Think and When to Look: Uncertainty-Guided Lookback
Jing Bi, Filippos Bellos, Junjia Guo +8
Test-time thinking (that is, generating explicit intermediate reasoning chains) is known to boost performance in large language models and has recently shown strong gains for large…
Omni-Judge: Can Omni-LLMs Serve as Human-Aligned Judges for Text-Conditioned Audio-Video Generation?
Susan Liang, Chao Huang, Filippos Bellos +7
State-of-the-art text-to-video generation models such as Sora 2 and Veo 3 can now produce high-fidelity videos with synchronized audio directly from a textual prompt, marking a new…
Semantic visually-guided acoustic highlighting with large vision-language models
Junhua Huang, Chao Huang, Chenliang Xu
Balancing dialogue, music, and sound effects with accompanying video is crucial for immersive storytelling, yet current audio mixing workflows remain largely manual and labor-inten…
Generative AI for Cel-Animation: A Survey
Yolo Y. Tang, Junjia Guo, Pinxin Liu +14
Traditional Celluloid (Cel) Animation production pipeline encompasses multiple essential steps, including storyboarding, layout design, keyframe animation, inbetweening, and colori…
Harnessing the Computation Redundancy in ViTs to Boost Adversarial Transferability
Jiani Liu, Zhiyuan Wang, Zeliang Zhang +4
Vision Transformers (ViTs) have demonstrated impressive performance across a range of applications, including many safety-critical tasks. However, their unique architectural proper…
