Despite progress in video understanding, current MLLMs struggle with counting tasks. Existing benchmarks are limited by short videos, close-set queries, lack of clue annotations, and weak multimodal coverage. In this paper, we introduce CG-AV-Counting, a manually-annotated clue-grounded counting ben
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have achieved remarkable success in visual question answering tasks, but their reliance on large numbers of visual tokens introduces significant computational overhead. While existing efficient VLM approaches reduce visual tokens through fixed-ratio compression, they op
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have recently shown impressive generalization and language-guided manipulation capabilities. However, their performance degrades on tasks requiring precise spatial reasoning due to limited spatial reasoning inherited from Vision-Language Models (VLMs). Existing VL…
Existing large language models (LLMs) occasionally generate plausible yet factually incorrect responses, known as hallucinations. Two main approaches have been proposed to mitigate hallucinations: retrieval-augmented language models (RALMs) and refusal post-training. However, current research predom
Autoregressive vision-language-action (VLA) models have recently demonstrated strong capabilities in robotic manipulation. However, their core process of action tokenization often involves a trade-off between reconstruction fidelity and inference efficiency. We introduce \textbf{FASTer}, a unified f…

The existing video understanding benchmarks for multimodal large language models (MLLMs) mainly focus on short videos. The few benchmarks for long video understanding often rely on multiple-choice questions (MCQs). Due to the limitations of MCQ evaluations and the advanced reasoning abilities of MLL…
Diffusion policies have emerged as a mainstream paradigm for building vision-language-action (VLA) models.

Egocentric object-interaction anticipation is critical for applications like augmented reality and robotics, but existing methods struggle with misaligned egocentric encoding, insufficient supervision, and underutilized historical context. These limitations stem from a lack of focus on retention, i.
Incomplete multi-view clustering (IMVC) aims to reveal shared clustering structures within multi-view data, where only partial views of the samples are available. Existing IMVC methods primarily suffer from two issues: 1) Imputation-based methods inevitably introduce inaccurate imputations, which in…
