arXiv:2604.08646v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Instruction-based video editing is a natural way to control video content with text, but adapting a video generation model into an editor usually appears data-hungry. At the same time, high-quality video editing data remains scarce. In this paper, we show that a video generation backbone can become a strong video editor without large scale video editing data. We present InsEdit, an instruction-based editing model built on HunyuanVideo-1.5. InsEdit combines a visual editing architecture […]

arXiv:2604.08645v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large multimodal models are increasingly used as the reasoning core of embodied agents operating in 3D environments, yet they remain prone to hallucinations that can produce unsafe and ungrounded decisions. Existing inference-time hallucination mitigation methods largely target 2D vision-language settings and do not transfer to embodied 3D reasoning, where failures arise from object presence, spatial layout, and geometric grounding rather than pixel-level inconsistencies. We introduce 3D-VCD, the first inference-time visual contrastive decoding framework […]

arXiv:2604.08644v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This technical report introduces EXAONE 4.5, the first open-weight vision language model released by LG AI Research. EXAONE 4.5 is architected by integrating a dedicated visual encoder into the existing EXAONE 4.0 framework, enabling native multimodal pretraining over both visual and textual modalities. The model is trained on large-scale data with careful curation, particularly emphasizing document-centric corpora that align with LG’s strategic application domains. This targeted data design enables substantial performance gains in […]

arXiv:2604.08643v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: User interactions in online recommendation platforms create interdependencies among content creators: feedback on one creator’s content influences the system’s learning and, in turn, the exposure of other creators’ contents. To analyze incentives in such settings, we model collaboration as a multi-agent stochastic linear bandit problem with a transferable utility (TU) cooperative game formulation, where a coalition’s value equals the negative sum of its members’ cumulative regrets. We show that, for identical (homogenous) agents […]

arXiv:2604.08641v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Interpretation is essential to deciphering the language of art: audiences communicate with artists by recovering meaning from visual artifacts. However, current Generative Art (GenArt) evaluators remain fixated on surface-level image quality or literal prompt adherence, failing to assess the deeper symbolic or abstract meaning intended by the creator. We address this gap by formalizing a Peircean computational semiotic theory that models Human-GenArt Interaction (HGI) as cascaded semiosis. This framework reveals that artistic meaning […]

arXiv:2604.08639v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Uncertainty quantification (UQ) is essential for deploying deep learning models in safety critical applications, yet no consensus exists on which UQ method performs best across different data modalities and distribution shifts. This paper presents a comprehensive benchmark of ten widely used UQ baselines including MC Dropout, SWAG, ensemble methods, temperature scaling, energy based OOD, Mahalanobis, hyperbolic classifiers, ENN, Taylor Sensus, and split conformal prediction against a simplified yet highly effective variant of VOLTA […]

arXiv:2604.08636v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Designing robot morphologies and kinematics has traditionally relied on human intuition, with little systematic foundation. Motion-design co-optimization offers a promising path toward automation, but two major challenges remain: (i) the vast, unstructured design space and (ii) the difficulty of constructing task-specific loss functions. We propose a new paradigm that minimizes human involvement by (i) learning the design search space from existing mechanical designs, rather than hand-crafting it, and (ii) defining the loss directly […]

arXiv:2604.08633v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated black-box testing of APIs typically relies on interface specifications that define available operations and data schemas, but offer limited or no behavioural semantics. This semantic gap amplifies the test-oracle problem and limits the generation of effective, stateful call sequences. We introduce IcePick, a framework that achieves systematic state-space coverage for API testing by leveraging model checking. IcePick uses TLA+ to formally model API state evolution, employs the TLC model checker to exhaustively […]

arXiv:2604.08632v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Network segmentation is a foundational enterprise security control. Despite its recognized benefits, segmentation initiatives frequently fail in practice, and the field lacks a systematic empirical explanation for why these projects do not achieve their intended outcomes. This paper presents an empirical study of failed segmentation projects based on a survey of 400 U.S.-based network security practitioners. The survey was grounded in a two-part failure framework that separately measures general IT project failure factors […]

arXiv:2604.08630v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study differentially private data release, where a database is accessed through successive, possibly adaptive queries and mechanisms. Existing composition theorems and privacy filters combine worst case per-round privacy parameters, leaving room for more refined accounting based on realised leakage, which we term realisation-level accounting. We propose a realisation-level filtering approach to determine stopping times for data releases, and design one such filter. Despite technical challenges arising from conditioning on realisations and stopping […]
