What's new

In this paper, we propose PromptRad, a knowledge-enhanced multi-label \textbf{prompt}-tuning approach for \textbf{rad}iology report labeling under low-resource settings.

Key details

  • Existing rule-based labelers struggle with the diverse descriptions in clinical reports, while fine-tuning pre-trained language models (PLMs) requires large amounts of labeled data that are often unavailable in clinical settings.
  • In this paper, we propose PromptRad, a knowledge-enhanced multi-label \textbf{prompt}-tuning approach for \textbf{rad}iology report labeling under low-resource settings.
  • PromptRad reformulates multi-label classification as masked language modeling and incorporates synonyms from the UMLS Metathesaurus into a multi-word verbalizer to enrich category representations.
  • By fine-tuning the PLM without additional classification layers, PromptRad requires substantially less labeled data than conventional fine-tuning.

  • arXiv:2605.20052v2 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatic report labeling facilitates the identification of clinical findings from unstructured text and enables large-scale annotation for medical imaging research.
  • Experiments on liver CT (computed tomography) reports show that PromptRad outperforms dictionary-based and fine-tuning baselines with only 32 labeled training examples, and achieves competitive performance with GPT-4 despite using a much smaller model.

What's new

Functionally, this means the LLM now needs to simply say "click 4" instead of having to say "click 443 213".

This methodology however fails horribly when we try to apply it to native OS automation.

Key details

  • Modern multimodal LLMs are great at vision and perception but are quite poor at localization.
  • This naturally creates a massive problem when we try to take our RPA frameworks and give them to agents to perform computer use tasks.

  • Functionally, this means the LLM now needs to simply say "click 4" instead of having to say "click 443 213".

    This methodology however fails horribly when we try to apply it to native OS automation.

  • The accessibility tree, which is often exists for native apps, is usually quite brittle, exposes non-deterministic selectors and often stripped by developers, which can make it hard to localize elements.

Results & evidence

  • Functionally, this means the LLM now needs to simply say "click 4" instead of having to say "click 443 213".

  • This therefore enables Set-Of-Marks prompting for in principal ANY user interface.

    I ran an ablation benchmark using the framework with GPT-5.5 (high) and was able to acquire a ~ 20% higher accuracy than just the raw model.

Limitations / unknowns

  • Functionally, this means the LLM now needs to simply say "click 4" instead of having to say "click 443 213".

    This methodology however fails horribly when we try to apply it to native OS automation.

  • What was however surprising was that the model performed slightly better with knowing just the location of the bounding boxes (without actually seeing them).

arXiv:2604.16503v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Training strong video generation models usually requires massive datasets, large parameter counts, and substantial compute.

What's new

First, Shared Cross-Attention strengthens text control when video token sequences become long.

Key details

  • In this work, we ask whether strong text-to-video quality is possible at a much smaller budget: fewer than 10M clips and less than 100,000 H200 GPU hours.
  • Our core claim is that part of the answer lies in how model capacity is organized, not only in how much of it is used.
  • In video generation, prompt alignment, temporal consistency, and fine-detail recovery can interfere with one another when they are handled through the same pathway.
  • Motif-Video 2B addresses this by separating these roles architecturally, rather than relying on scale alone.

Limitations / unknowns

  • To make this design effective under a limited compute budget, we pair it with an efficient training recipe based on dynamic token routing and early-phase feature alignment to a frozen pretrained video encoder.

Key details

  • Bring your own agents, assign goals, and track your agents' work and costs from one dashboard.
  • It looks like a task manager — but under the hood it has org charts, budgets, governance, goal alignment, and agent coordination.
  • Manage business goals, not pull requests.
  • | Step | Example | | |---|---|---| | 01 | Define the goal | "Build the #1 AI note-taking app to $1M MRR." | | 02 | Hire the team | CEO, CTO, engineers, designers, marketers — any bot, any provider.

Learning from such heterogeneous data introduces new challenges, including reconstruction noise, source-domain mismatch, uneven motion quality, and the need for temporal modeling under large behavioral variation.

Key details

  • A key innovation of HoloMotion-1 is to scale control-policy training with a large-scale hybrid motion corpus, where video-reconstructed motions from in-the-wild videos provide the dominant source of motion diversity, while curated motion-capture and in-hous...
  • This data regime enables HoloMotion-1 to move beyond conventional MoCap-only training and exposes the policy to substantially broader behaviors, capture conditions, and motion styles.
