Accurate intraoperative navigation is essential for robot-assisted endoluminal intervention, but remains difficult because of limited endoscopic field of view and dynamic artifacts. Existing navigation platforms often rely on external localization technologies, such as electromagnetic tracking or shape sensing, which increase hardware complexity and remain vulnerable to intraoperative anatomical mismatch. We present a vision-only autonomy framework that performs long-horizon bronchoscopic naviga...

With the rapid advancement of commercial multi-modal models, image editing has garnered significant attention due to its widespread applicability in daily life. Despite impressive progress, existing image editing systems, particularly closed-source or proprietary models, often struggle with complex, indirect, or multi-step user instructions. These limitations hinder their ability to perform nuanced, context-aware edits that align with human intent. In this work, we propose ImageEdit-R1, a multi-...

Current Graphical User Interface (GUI) agents operate primarily under a reactive paradigm: a user must provide an explicit instruction for the agent to execute a task. However, an intelligent AI assistant should be proactive, which is capable of anticipating user intentions directly from continuous visual inputs, such as mobile or desktop screenshots, and offering timely recommendations without explicit user prompting. Transitioning to this proactive paradigm presents significant challenges. Rea...

Preference-based alignment methods (e.g., RLHF, DPO) typically optimize a single scalar objective, implicitly averaging over heterogeneous human preferences. In practice, systematic annotator and user-group disagreement makes mean-reward maximization brittle and susceptible to proxy over-optimization. We propose **Disagreement-Aware Alignment via Risk-Constrained Decoding (DARC)**, a retraining-free inference-time method that frames response selection as distributionally robust, risk-sensitive d...

We propose a Hierarchical Error-Corrective Graph FrameworkforAutonomousAgentswithLLM-BasedActionGeneration(HECG),whichincorporates three core innovations: (1) Multi-Dimensional Transferable Strategy (MDTS): by integrating task quality metrics (Q), confidence/cost metrics (C), reward metrics (R), and LLM-based semantic reasoning scores (LLM-Score), MDTS achieves multi-dimensional alignment between quantitative performance and semantic context, enabling more precise selection of high-quality candi...

Dense image captioning is critical for cross-modal alignment in vision-language pretraining and text-to-image generation, but scaling expert-quality annotations is prohibitively expensive. While synthetic captioning via strong vision-language models (VLMs) is a practical alternative, supervised distillation often yields limited output diversity and weak generalization. Reinforcement learning (RL) could overcome these limitations, but its successes have so far been concentrated in verifiable doma...

Reliable unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) detection is critical for autonomous airspace monitoring but remains challenging when integrating sensor streams that differ substantially in resolution, perspective, and field of view. Conventional fusion methods-such as wavelet-, Laplacian-, and decision-level approaches-often fail to preserve spatial correspondence across modalities and suffer from annotation of inconsistencies, limiting their robustness in real-world settings. This study introduces two ...

Ensuring trustworthiness in open-world visual recognition requires models that are interpretable, fair, and robust to distribution shifts. Yet modern vision systems are increasingly deployed as proprietary black-box APIs, exposing only output probabilities and hiding architecture, parameters, gradients, and training data. This opacity prevents meaningful auditing, bias detection, and failure analysis. Existing explanation methods assume white- or gray-box access or knowledge of the training dist...
