Therapy-FIS: A Dataset for Assessing Facilitative Interpersonal Skills in Psychotherapeutic Setting

Facilitative Interpersonal Skills (FIS) is a performance-based assessment method that provides a structured framework for evaluating the interpersonal competencies of mental health professionals. However, existing FIS assessment relies heavily on human observer ratings, making the evaluation process labor-intensive, costly, and difficult to scale. Progress toward automated FIS assessment has also been constrained by the lack of publicly available professional data in psychotherapy settings. To address this limitation, we introduce Therapy-FIS, a dataset for automated FIS assessment in standardized psychotherapy tasks. To our knowledge, Therapy-FIS is the first publicly available dataset in this domain. It contains facial, acoustic, and textual signals derived from standardized therapist responses to standardized mock patient stimulus clips, based on 890 therapist video recordings and 8 patient videos, and is rated with eight FIS subscale ratings and an overall FIS score. Built on Therapy-FIS, we further establish a benchmark with two downstream tasks: Therapist Performance Rating and Joint Therapist--mock-Patient Performance Rating. We also introduce a competitive baseline, DyadicFIS, with gated fusion and routed readout under therapist-only and dyadic settings. DyadicFIS obtains the best macro CCC(Concordance Correlation Coefficient) scores on both tasks (0.2807 and 0.3299). Therapy-FIS offers a reproducible resource for data-driven automated assessment of therapeutic interpersonal skills in mental health.

Polyp Matching Using Deep Learning

A key challenge in colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) analysis is accurately identifying whether multiple images depict the same polyp, which is critical to avoid over-counting and unnecessary clinical interventions. Additionally, this prevents prolonged follow-up colonoscopies where endoscopists search for duplicate polyps without precise localization. This study presents a novel contrastive learning-based approach to polyp matching using a Siamese neural network architecture. The model was trained on a dataset from the Danish CareForColon2015 trial. The dataset comprises 5,103 image pairs of confirmed same polyp and 5,103 pairs of different polyps, annotated by experienced clinicians. The proposed model employs ResNet variants (ResNet18, ResNet34, ResNet50), DenseNet121 and EfficientNet B0/B3 as backbones and utilizes contrastive learning with cosine vector distance metric for classification. Experimental results demonstrate high classification accuracies of up to 92% and AUC values close to 0.98. These results suggest that automated polyp matching has the potential to reduce polyp over-counting, improve patient risk stratification, and reduce unnecessary follow-up colonoscopies.

Policy Network Diffusion

Diffusion models have shown remarkable progress in AI-generated content, including images and videos. In this paper, we explore whether diffusion models can generate the parameters of policy networks in reinforcement learning (RL), and whether the generated policies exhibit generalization capabilities. To achieve this, we propose Diffusion-based Conditional Policy Network Parameter Generation (DPPG), which consists of a Transformer-based autoencoder and a task-conditioned diffusion model. The autoencoder achieves a high compression rate by patchifying network parameters, while the task-conditioned diffusion model generates corresponding parameters conditioned on different environments. Our experiments demonstrate that, with a single unified DPPG model, we can synthesize high-quality policies across a diverse set of tasks from different environment domains, including Classic Control, Atari games, and MuJoCo. Additionally, our method can generate networks with a larger number of parameters compared to previous approaches. Furthermore, we find that in previously unseen environments, DPPG can generate parameters that achieve faster convergence and reach competitive performance, showcasing the potential future applications of parameter generation via diffusion.

Spectral Quantum Memory for Implicit Neural Representations

Implicit neural representations (INRs) model signals as continuous functions from coordinates to values, but their performance depends strongly on how spectral capacity is allocated. Yet most Quantum INR (QINR) architectures treat spectral components as independent outputs of separate quantum blocks. We introduce the Spectral Quantum Memory Model (SQMM), a memory coupled quantum INR in which sequential hybrid data reuploading layers (bands) communicate through a shared coherent quantum memory register. Each band reads the memory, computes on its own coordinate upload, and writes part of its state back, so later bands can build on the computation of earlier ones. When memory read and write layers are input independent, we prove that the memory state forms an operator valued Fourier series whose support is contained in the Minkowski sum of the initial memory spectrum and the local band spectra. Downstream bands then condition their Fourier coefficients on the spectral content stored by earlier bands, and the memory coupling creates no new primitive frequencies. This theory motivates a spectral memory alignment loss that encourages memory to encode the spectrum expressed by the deployed prefix of the model. Across audio and image reconstruction benchmarks, SQMM improves over compact QINR and INR baselines.

FlowTranslator: Training-Free In-Image Machine Translation with Flow-Based Editing

In-image machine translation (IIMT) replaces text in an image with its translation while preserving the surrounding visual context. Existing task-specific models achieve convincing performance but require massive paired training images before and after translation. As advanced text-to-image (T2I) models have reached a practically usable level of multilingual text generation, we argue that this capability can be transferred to IIMT and present FlowTranslator. It is a training-free IIMT framework that first employs an OCR model and an LLM to generate the translation prompt, which is injected into the T2I-based diffusion model. To optimize the accurate and natural generation of translated text, we introduce two trajectory controls: Region Coupling Release (RCR) partially decorrelates target-branch noise inside the text region early in the trajectory, while Coupling Expansion (CE) amplifies the emerging edit displacement mid-trajectory. Under the EasyOCR read-back protocol, FlowTranslator achieves average PRIM BLEU and COMET scores of 20.6 and 57.2, respectively, substantially outperforming the strong training-based baseline UniTranslator. On the more challenging and realistic whole-image ScenePair photographs translated into Chinese, it reaches 40.1\% exact-match accuracy and surpasses existing editing systems, some of which only address the text-rendering stage rather than the complete IIMT task. These results establish flow-based editing as a strong, fully training-free baseline for IIMT.

Bidirectional Centered Score Matching for Discrete Diffusion Distillation

Discrete diffusion models with parallel decoding are often distilled using token-wise KL objectives. Although token-wise KL exactly matches the corresponding product-form block distributions, its probability-space optimization geometry and teacher-only candidate truncation may provide insufficient supervision under aggressive few-step distillation. Concrete Score Matching (CSM) provides an alternative within-position objective by aligning relative logit geometry, but its complete pairwise form incurs {O}(|{V}|^2) complexity. We propose Bidirectional Centered Score Matching (BCSM), an efficient within-position distillation objective that constructs an {O}(K) bidirectional active set, reduces pairwise comparisons to {O}(K^2), and factorizes them into an {O}(K) objective. We further introduce cross-timestep transition alignment. Experiments demonstrate strong quality--efficiency trade-offs, including up to 6NFE reduction with a 16.9\% relative HumanEval gain and a 15.1\% relative MMMU gain at single-step inference.

AceAction-5M: Hierarchical Goals for Generalist Action Learning Across 3D Game Worlds

Video games provide a practical setting for collecting vision-language-action (VLA) data, whose acquisition in physical environments is costly. Existing datasets, however, remain limited by restricted game coverage, sparse language supervision, or temporal hierarchies that do not necessarily reflect changes in task objectives. We introduce AceAction, a dataset of human gameplay across multiple 3D games for learning skill composition and subgoal transitions. AceAction organizes demonstrations around complete tasks, linking overall instructions, ordered subgoals, and local skill instructions to temporally aligned visual observations and keyboard-and-mouse actions. To construct these annotations, we develop a vision-language model pipeline that identifies subgoals from changes in objectives or interaction targets, anchors navigation goals to visually recognizable waypoints, and composes adjacent subgoals into task instructions. The resulting demonstrations cover navigation, reconnaissance, combat, interaction, and recovery, with explicit stage boundaries that connect task progression to fine-grained control. We assess annotation quality through model-based verification and human inspection. An audit of 500 trajectories yields a 95.8% pass rate across independent reviewer assessments. AceAction provides a data foundation for studying how agents execute, combine, and switch skills to follow complex instructions in dynamic game environments.

DualWorldBench: Can Agents Plan Deliveries across Symbolic and Grounded Worlds?

Recent multimodal agents have shown promising progress in embodied planning and web interaction. However, existing evaluations often rely on simplified tasks with limited combinatorial structure, leaving it unclear whether current agents can robustly integrate perception and reasoning for multi-goal planning under temporal, physical, and multimodal constraints. We introduce DualWorldBench, a unified benchmark for evaluating agent planning under controlled symbolic--temporal and grounded--topological complexity. Built around a shared pickup--delivery interface, DualWorldBench consists of three complementary components: TextWorld, which isolates symbolic planning under varying task compositions and release dynamics; SimWorld, which evaluates grounded path planning under controlled topological variation with text, image, or multimodal inputs; and DualWorld-VQA, a diagnostic suite spanning perception, scene understanding, and planning. Experiments reveal a common gap between local understanding and globally consistent planning. In TextWorld, agents struggle to derive optimal task sequences under interacting temporal constraints; in SimWorld, grounded observations are not reliably converted into feasible action sequences. DualWorld-VQA further confirms that perception and topology understanding do not necessarily translate into constrained planning. Together, these results identify the central challenge as composing symbolic or grounded evidence into globally feasible and efficient multi-goal plans. These findings establish DualWorldBench as a challenging testbed for agents with tighter perception--reasoning--planning integration. All datasets and code are publicly available at our project website https://dualworld.netlify.app/.

DiMuRe: Diagnosis-Guided Multilevel Recovery for Robotic Task Execution

Disturbances can invalidate the conditions required by a robot's next action even when much of its task program remains useful. A recovery system must therefore choose a response suited to the current state. We present DiMuRe (diagnosis-guided multilevel recovery), a framework for robot-use agents that uses phase-specific evidence and method preconditions to select program reuse or predefined recovery skills, including bounded vision-language-action (VLA) grasping. After the original program exits, a multimodal large language model (MLLM) can generate corrective code from images and execution feedback. Local verification checks the outcome of each recovery attempt. We also introduce LIBERO-Disturb, a benchmark for robustness and recovery under mid-execution disturbances, supporting program-based agents and VLA policies. On 801 scheduled disturbed Encore development cases, Local DiMuRe (program reuse and recovery skills) achieves 77.65% complete-task success, compared with 58.68% for the original program under the same physical-step allowance. Full DiMuRe achieves 81.90% with terminal replanning, an additional step allowance, and early handoff. Local DiMuRe also uses fewer physical steps per scheduled episode than the original program.

Two-Layer Random ReLU Networks Can Separate Disjoint Classes

Set separation by continuous linear functionals is fundamental in functional analysis and convex optimization and underlies binary classification in machine learning. Support vector machines provide maximum-margin affine separators for linearly separable data, while kernel methods represent nonlinear decision rules through linear separation in a reproducing-kernel Hilbert space. We study when two classes, not necessarily convex or linearly separable in the input space, can be separated with positive margin by finite ReLU networks and by random ReLU features. At the deterministic level, we prove that positive-margin separation by a finite ReLU network is equivalent to the existence of finite closed convex covers whose opposite-label members have positive pairwise distances, and exactly two hidden layers suffice. For random separation, suppose each class is represented as a finite union of nonempty closed convex cells, possibly unbounded. If every opposite-label cell pair has positive distance and its closed difference cone is pointed, then two independent random ReLU layers yield a common positive-margin affine separator with high probability. The first layer separates the feature image of each negative cell from the feature image of the positive class by a hyperplane through the origin. It also controls all cross-class distances uniformly. The second layer combines cellwise scores through Chebyshev polynomials and realizes the resulting polynomial using Gaussian Hermite features, followed by a uniform finite-width approximation. With the remaining geometric, bias, and confidence parameters fixed, each sufficient width is quadratic in the largest Gaussian width of a spherical difference-cone section, hence at most linear in its span dimension. An example shows that this squared Gaussian-width dependence is sharp for both layers.

Impact of Input Resolution in Mammographic Mass Detection: A Controlled Multi-Architecture Study

Deep-learning-based mass detectors usually downsample mammograms, trading fine image detail for lower computational cost. However, published studies cannot reveal how much accuracy this trade-off sacrifices, since they also differ in architecture, preprocessing, and evaluation protocol. In this work, we isolated the effect of input resolution in a controlled study on the VinDr-Mammo dataset, training 18 detectors at six input resolutions ranging from 512 x 416 to 1600 x 1280 pixels, for 108 model-resolution combinations. Whole mammograms were resized without cropping or tiling. For each model, preprocessing, model initialization, augmentation, and evaluation procedures were kept fixed across resolutions. Detection accuracy was evaluated by mAP50 on the 219 mass-positive images of the official test split, and 57 combinations with test mAP50 of at least 0.60 were analyzed. From the lowest to the highest resolution, median mAP50 rose from 0.626 to 0.660 and the best mAP50 from 0.670 to 0.709. The best result, achieved by DINO with a ConvNeXt-S backbone, is the highest mAP50 reported to date on mass-positive VinDr-Mammo images. Gains were concentrated in small masses: for the smallest third of lesions, median mAP50 rose by 0.074 (from 0.367 to 0.441), compared with 0.007 and 0.032 for medium and large masses. Median training time increased from 0.45 to 1.40 h, and median inference time from 23.6 to 113.7 ms per image. Therefore, higher input resolution mainly benefits the small masses that are hardest to detect, at a computational cost that remains practical.

Say the Same, Act Differently: Diagnosing and Steering Text-Action Divergence in Reasoning VLAs

Reasoning vision-language-action (VLA) models pair physical control with natural-language rationales that supervisors can read to monitor embodied safety. Prior attacks on VLA reasoning corrupt the rationale itself and leave visible evidence in the text. We show that visual perturbations can instead alter the physical action while keeping the generated rationale word-for-word identical. At the shared text/action interface of Alpamayo for driving and InstructVLA for manipulation, our text-neutral action-subspace (TNAS) diagnostic shows that the locally most action-sensitive direction is nearly orthogonal to the active text-loss gradients, with 1.87% and 5.28% norm overlap. At equal hidden-state perturbation norms across both models, interventions along this text-neutral residual shift actions 4.64x to 47.8x more than text-gradient perturbations, whereas text-gradient perturbations induce 21.2x to 277x more text drift. Steering visual perturbations along this direction reaches the same decoupling from the image. Across 154 obstacle-annotated driving scenes in Alpamayo, TNAS-guided attacks induce a new collision under a word-for-word identical rationale in 52.6% of scenes under full-image perturbations and 35.1% under a localized forward-camera patch, compared with 4.55% for unguided action attacks. Relative to a text-preserving baseline, TNAS guidance raises exact rationale preservation from 83.0% to 89.5% and cuts teacher-forced text drift by 68.4% at a comparable collision rate. In InstructVLA, TNAS guidance cuts text drift by 40.5% and preserves the exact response on 85.0% of examples alongside a 1.73-unit action-chunk shift. An unchanged rationale therefore cannot certify a safe action, so monitors for reasoning VLAs must verify the predicted action channel directly.

What Remains in Sight? Autoregressive Video Decoding as Representation-Guided Context Rewriting

Long-horizon video generation is increasingly moving toward autoregressive rollout, where each newly generated segment becomes part of the evidence used for future prediction. Recent causal decoders, long-context training, and KV-cache mechanisms have extended feasible duration, but most inference pipelines still decide the visible past implicitly through recent windows, compressed caches, or external memory. This raises a direct question: can the choice of which past frames or segments to show to the decoder be treated as an explicit test-time decision? We answer this question with ReCR, a training-free method that formulates autoregressive video decoding as representation-guided context rewriting. At each step, ReCR builds a selected visible context from the generated history by using internal decoder representations to favor context units that match the global rollout state, avoid redundancy with the recent continuation, preserve temporal boundary coverage, and widen the range of spatial layouts in view. The selected units are then mapped onto a compact causal axis before decoding the next block. Across long-horizon text-to-video benchmarks, ReCR consistently improves multiple autoregressive backbones under matched visible-token budgets. Empirical analyses such as representation-space diagnostics and transition-count prompt switching further show that improving what remains visible is an effective path toward more stable long-video decoding.

Improving PI-RADS Prediction and Prostate Cancer Detection from Multiparametric MRI with Anatomical Guidance

Accurate prediction of Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) scores from multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) remains challenging, more so than clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) detection. Given the importance of lesion location in PI-RADS scoring, we evaluated whether incorporating prostate zonal masks improves PI-RADS prediction and csPCa detection across multiple architectures (3D ResNet-18, ResNet-50, and ViT) using a large-scale internal dataset. Anatomical guidance generally improved performance across architectures, with the best results achieved by ResNet-18 with 2-zone guidance for PI-RADS prediction (QWK = 0.511) and ResNet-50 with 5-zone guidance for csPCa detection (AUC = 0.809). Fine-tuned results on external datasets further demonstrated the benefits of anatomical guidance. Furthermore, models with anatomical guidance improved the utility of model-predicted PI-RADS scores for PI-RADS-based csPCa detection (positive defined as PI-RADS>=3). Combining model-predicted and expert-assigned PI-RADS scores significantly increased the AUC from 0.711 to 0.756 (p < 0.05), suggesting that AI-derived PI-RADS scores may provide complementary information to expert assessment for csPCa detection. Overall, our findings highlight the value of incorporating prostate zonal anatomy into deep learning-based prostate MRI assessment.

PACT: Certifying What Is Written in Parallel Decoding of Diffusion Language Models

Parallel decoding speeds up masked diffusion language models by writing several tokens per forward pass. Published commit rules choose these tokens by testing the predicted distributions. Under sampling the written tokens are drawn, and these tests do not see them. We find that answer quality follows the reliability of the tokens actually written. An answer's log probability splits into this reliability and the dependence within each step. We propose PACT, a training-free commit rule that draws the tokens first, certifies the set it will write and spaces the positions of each step apart. This certificate holds at every temperature, and we show that no rule with the same guarantee commits more positions. Experiments use four models of the LLaDA and Dream families and HumanEval, MBPP, GSM8K, MATH500 and IFEval benchmarks. PACT reaches the quality of published commit rules with fewer forward passes. Spacing removes positions from each step, yet it usually lowers the total cost because later steps then write more tokens. At the same speed, published decoders also write a word twice in a row far more often than PACT. These results suggest that commit rules should certify the tokens they write. Code is available at https://github.com/LiZaiyuan0619/PACT.

Pixel-UMI: Learning Environment-Aware Whole-Body Manipulation from Sensorized Human Demonstrations

Sensorized human demonstrations offer scalable data for mobile manipulation, but embodiment differences complicate policy learning. We present Pixel-UMI, a pipeline for learning environment-aware whole-body policies from human data. We first introduce Environment-Aware Retargeting (EAR), which combines reconstructed scene geometry with demonstrated head and gripper trajectories to determine robot posture and generate collision-aware joint and base targets. Delay-calibrated action assignment converts these trajectories into actions. However, kinematic differences can leave residual pose errors, creating viewpoint mismatches between human demonstrations and robot observations. We therefore introduce Retargeting-Error-Aware Masking (REAM), which uses these errors during training to reduce reliance on mismatched views at deployment. Finally, because estimated actions cannot fully capture contact-rich interactions, we collect on-policy human corrections through DAgger to improve performance. We evaluate Pixel-UMI on five challenging tasks spanning articulated-object manipulation, deformable-object handling, constrained-space reaching, whole-body collision avoidance, and contact-rich bimanual coordination, achieving 87.0% average task progress. Video results are available at https://pixel-robot.com/pixel-umi

Thought-deciphering via hierarchical EEG-to-text alignment

Communication is important for our well-being, but it can be impaired by disabilities, such as locked-in syndrome (LIS), cerebral palsy (CP), and dysarthria. Non-invasive brain-to-text brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) offer a promising solution by providing an alternative communication pathway for people with communication disabilities. However, most recent breakthroughs have relied on large, cumbersome, and costly neuroimaging modalities, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and magnetoencephalography (MEG). Numerous studies have attempted decoding using the lighter and cheaper electroencephalography (EEG), but the results remain inferior compared to the other modalities. More importantly, we do not understand how these modalities are related to text at the letter, word, sentence, and higher semantic levels. Many prior studies have focused on decoding below the sentence level because it is considerably easier to design an experiment around phonemes, letters, and words. However, during communication, sentences play a much more important role than words and letters. This is because sentences carry information at such a high level that they can be understood even if some words and letters are missing. However, within sentence-level decoding, sentence classification is not as well investigated as sentence generation, making it difficult to decide whether a sentence should be retrieved or generated in the context of EEG-to-text decoding. This paper strives to investigate sentence-level EEG-to-text classification via a novel hierarchical alignment framework, where the main goal is to retrieve a read sentence using its context and EEG as inputs.
