Information-Guided Frontier Decoding: Contextual Utility-Driven Commitment in dMLLMs

Decoding quality in diffusion multimodal language models (dMLLMs) depends heavily on the order in which masked tokens are committed. Existing confidence-based strategies prioritize locally easy tokens, but confidence does not necessarily reflect contextual usefulness. As a result, structurally easy tokens such as punctuation may be committed before informative semantic anchors, weakening context propagation and increasing error accumulation. We propose Information-Guided Frontier Decoding (IGFD), a training-free decoding strategy that ranks candidates using token confidence, neighborhood uncertainty, and structural commitment risk. IGFD encourages early commitment of reliable semantic anchors while delaying fragile structural tokens, improving contextual support during decoding. A dynamic candidate frontier further constrains token selection to locally expandable regions under the same decoding budget. The method requires no additional training, auxiliary models, or extra forward passes. Experiments across multimodal understanding, reasoning, grounding, and hallucination benchmarks show that IGFD consistently outperforms existing decoding strategies across the majority of benchmarks and diffusion MLLM backbones under identical decoding budgets.

Evidential learning driven Breast Tumor Segmentation with Stage-divided Vision-Language Interaction

Breast cancer is one of the most common causes of death among women worldwide, with millions of fatalities annually. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can provide various sequences for characterizing tumor morphology and internal patterns, and becomes an effective tool for detection and diagnosis of breast tumors. However, previous deep-learning based tumor segmentation methods have limitations in accurately locating tumor contours due to the challenge of low contrast between cancer and normal areas and blurred boundaries. Leveraging text prompt information holds promise in ameliorating tumor segmentation effect by delineating segmentation regions. Inspired by this, we propose text-guided Breast Tumor Segmentation model (TextBCS) with stage-divided vision-language interaction and evidential learning. Specifically, the proposed stage-divided vision-language interaction facilitates information mutual between visual and text features at each stage of down-sampling, further exerting the advantages of text prompts to assist in locating lesion areas in low contrast scenarios. Moreover, the evidential learning is adopted to quantify the segmentation uncertainty of the model for blurred boundary. It utilizes the variational Dirichlet to characterize the distribution of the segmentation probabilities, addressing the segmentation uncertainties of the boundaries. Extensive experiments validate the superiority of our TextBCS over other segmentation networks, showcasing the best breast tumor segmentation performance on publicly available datasets.

Dual-channel Heterophilic Message Passing for Graph Fraud Detection

Fraudulent activities have significantly increased across various domains, such as e-commerce, online review platforms, and social networks, making fraud detection a critical task. Spatial Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have been successfully applied to fraud detection tasks due to their strong inductive learning capabilities. However, existing spatial GNN-based methods often enhance the graph structure by excluding heterophilic neighbors during message passing to align with the homophilic bias of GNNs. Unfortunately, this approach can disrupt the original graph topology and increase uncertainty in predictions. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a novel framework, Dual-channel Heterophilic Message Passing (DHMP), for fraud detection. DHMP leverages a heterophily separation module to divide the graph into homophilic and heterophilic subgraphs, mitigating the low-pass inductive bias of traditional GNNs. It then applies shared weights to capture signals at different frequencies independently and incorporates a customized sampling strategy for training. This allows nodes to adaptively balance the contributions of various signals based on their labels. Extensive experiments on three real-world datasets demonstrate that DHMP outperforms existing methods, highlighting the importance of separating signals with different frequencies for improved fraud detection.
