While interpretable models such as concept bottleneck models (CBMs) and program synthesis methods enable verification of model decisions, their evaluation is typically limited to simple tasks, leaving complex reasoning on real-world images largely unexplored. We introduce COCOLogic-V2, an object-centric dataset for visual inductive reasoning on real-world images covering a broad subset of first-order logic. By categorizing samples into positive variants, near-boundary (NB), and far-from-boundary (FB) negatives, COCOLogic-V2 enables fine-grained diagnosis of model accountability. Our evaluations show that models tend to separate positive and FB samples well but fail on NB samples, while perceptual noise and large rule-induced search spaces pose additional challenges in few-shot settings. Together, these results highlight that visual inductive reasoning remains an open challenge and COCOLogic-V2 provides a concrete foundation for advancing methods in this direction.
A central design principle in modern machine learning and artificial intelligence is to align a model's inductive bias with the structure of its input data. For matrix-valued inputs, relevant matrix-level relationships can be characterised through spectral values and spectral sub…
Automating theoretical research is constrained not only by the generation of candidate results, but also by their reliable evaluation. A common approach is to close the research loop with a large language model (LLM) reviewer. However, such reviewers remain empirically unreliable…
Singular value soft-thresholding can be computed via a reduction to the matrix polar decomposition, which allows one to exploit GPU-friendly algorithms for computing the polar decomposition. Empirically, there is a significant speed-up on GPUs compared to the standard approach us…
In this paper, we propose a new solution for addressing the content cold-start problem in industry-scale search and recommender systems. Compared to prior approaches, we have made the following new contributions: 1) our solution spans the entire multi-stage funnel and generalizes…
Dysphagia is a debilitating late effect of head and neck cancer (HNC) treatment, yet timely identification of at-risk patients remains challenging in survivorship care. Definitive assessment relies on videofluoroscopic imaging, as captured by the Dynamic Imaging Grade of Swallowi…
Electroencephalography (EEG) is widely used to diagnose neurological conditions, but its analysis usually relies on either predefined spectral features or deep neural networks. Predefined features carry a strong bias, since they fix in advance what counts as informative, while de…
