01
Models for physical AI tasks, such as robotics and autonomous driving, need not reason solely in language. They can use visual plans--points, bounding boxes, and trajectories--to represent spatial goa...
02
We present WeLM-Image, a unified image foundation model that integrates multimodal understanding into text-to-image generation, instruction-guided editing, and multi-reference synthesis. Designed for ...
03
Reliable robotic manipulation requires both semantic understanding and precise control in three-dimensional space. However, vision-language-action (VLA) foundations largely inherit visual representati...
04
Autoregressive approaches with large language models, such as long chain-of-thought reasoning, have become the default for new AI applications because they reach higher accuracy on a wide range of tas...
05
ChemE-as-Code provides an open-source environment in which AI agents built on large language models (LLMs) can carry out chemical engineering work and engineers can check it. Its calculation tools ran...
06
Long-horizon LLM agents make multi-step decisions, yet outcome-reward-only reinforcement learning provides little direct supervision for individual steps. We introduce AttnSR, a step-level reward augm...
07
Enterprises run business transactions through multi-agent AI systems spanning clouds, large language models (LLMs), orchestration harnesses, and systems of record. Finance receives AI cost only at set...
08
Recent advances in Gaussian splatting have enabled efficient and photorealistic head avatar reconstruction, yet monocular video-based or image-based methods still suffer from under-constrained geometr...
09
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models route each token to a few of many experts, yet what an individual expert is responsible for remains unsettled. Existing analyses count how often an expert is selected o...
10
LiDAR is a critical sensor for autonomous driving and robotics, yet it remains vulnerable to adverse conditions such as fog, rain, transparent objects, and low-reflectance surfaces. Full-waveform LiDA...
