Joint and Cross-Modal Video-Audio Generation and Editing: A Unified Formulation and Design Taxonomy

Video and audio are perceived together, yet most generative models treat them in isolation. We examine methods that model the two modalities jointly, generate one from the other, or edit them in a coupled manner, organized around a single question: how is the output kept coherent across modalities in time and semantics...

Personalized Image Generation with Reasoning and Reflection

Personalized image generation has remained narrowly focused on conditional synthesis from curated visual exemplars, rather than capturing who a user is. In practice, however, a user's personal context is much richer, comprising reviews, posts, images, captions, and metadata accumulated over time. A truly personalized g...

Prompt2Skill: Unsupervised Skill Optimization From Natural Language Instructions

Skills are external artifacts that Large Language Models (LLMs) consume at inference time to improve their performance on specialized domains by incorporating relevant procedural and domain knowledge. Expert-authored skills are expensive to produce, and the resulting artifacts are not optimized for the specific model t...

DISCO: Distributed Long Context Scaling with Grounding-Reasoning Disaggregation

Inspired by distributed computing frameworks like Apache Spark, DISCO partitions long context across a fleet of Worker LLMs dedicated exclusively to parallel, localized grounding, establishing a highly efficient paradigm for robust long-context inference.

A Glance Is All You Need: Single-Pass Fine-Grained Image Captioning with SimLoss

SimLoss is proposed, a reference-free embedding-space objective for single-pass fine-grained image captioning, and results show that embedding-space supervision can recover the quality of multi-stage verification at the latency of a single-pass captioner.

JigShape: Evaluating Visual-Geometric Reasoning in VLMs through Jigsaw Puzzles

A benchmark with tab-and-blank interlocking pieces where geometric constraints provide strong local compatibility requirements that, combined with visual content, yield unambiguous ground truth is introduced, establishing scalable geometric reasoning as an open challenge for vision-language models.
