Grounding Free-Form Instructions for Fashion Complementary Image Generation

Fashion complementary image generation (CIG) aims to create garments that stylistically match a seed item based on user intent, making it a natural multimodal grounding problem where models must interpret language in visual context. Existing CIG benchmarks rely on rigid template prompts (e.g.,"a photo of a skirt"), failing to reflect natural user queries and obscuring model behavior across levels of linguistic specificity. We introduce fashion complementary image generation with free-form instructions, a multimodal language-grounding setting where a model generates a compatible garment from a seed image and a natural-language instruction. To this end, we enrich three CIG benchmarks with low-, medium-, and high-specificity instructions generated by a vision-language model and validated by human annotators. We instantiate the task with StyleFlow, a Rectified Flow Matching model that jointly conditions on the seed image and instruction within a single multimodal transformer. Across image quality metrics, catalog-alignment analysis, ablations, and human evaluation, StyleFlow consistently produces instruction-aligned and stylistically coherent garments while reducing architectural complexity and inference cost relative to auxiliary-module approaches.

Who Are You Explaining To? A Multi-Agent System for Audience-Aware XAI Narratives

Feature-attribution methods such as SHAP provide useful evidence about individual model predictions, but their numerical outputs are rarely sufficient for audiences with different expertise, goals, and risks of misinterpretation. In medical AI, the same local explanation must reach patients, clinicians, and data scientists through markedly different forms of communication, and naive verbalization through large language models (LLMs) is prone to weak grounding, conflation of attribution with causal language, and outputs that are persuasive without being faithful to the underlying model evidence. We introduce XstrAI, an audience-aware multi-agent framework that treats local explanations as fixed evidence and structures how it is communicated to each target reader. Each prediction case is encoded as an immutable structured representation, shared identically across audiences so the underlying evidence remains fixed. Generation is factored into three specialized LLM agents responsible for audience-aware planning, linguistic realization, and validation for grounding, attribution consistency, communicative risk, and audience appropriateness, with a bounded revision loop triggered on detected inconsistencies. We evaluate XstrAI on diabetes and stroke risk prediction against 11 baselines, ranging from direct verbalization to a re-implementation of a state-of-the-art narrator. The evaluation combines an intra-narrative regime measuring fidelity to SHAP evidence with an extra-narrative regime assessing audience appropriateness through reference corpora, multi-family LLM judges, and a survey with target readers. In both evaluations, XstrAI's narratives are consistently assigned to their intended audience by independent judges, and preferred over all baselines on Clinician and Patient audiences, with competitive performance on Data Scientist, where audience-conditioned single-prompt baselines lead.

Test-Time Verification for Text-to-SQL via Outcome Reward Models

It is demonstrated that ORM-based verification provides a simple, effective, and scalable alternative to heuristic test-time selection strategies for Text-to-SQL, and that ORMs scale effectively with larger candidate sets and yield stronger improvements on complex queries.
