Uncertainty-Aware Token Importance Estimation in Spiking Transformers

Wenxuan Liu, Zecheng Hao, Tong Bu et al.

Spiking transformers have shown strong potential for neuromorphic vision, yet their token processing across multiple spiking steps still introduces substantial redundancy and inference cost. Existing token reduction methods mainly rely on response based cues, such as activation magnitude, firing statistics, or feature similarity. Although effective, these criteria do not explicitly characterize token importance from the perspective of temporally evolving class evidence. In spiking transformers, token representations are progressively formed across multiple spiking steps rather than determined at a single instant, suggesting that token importance should be evaluated not only by instantaneous responses but also by temporal uncertainty patterns. Our key observation is that tokens exhibit heterogeneous uncertainty trajectories over time, and that their temporally aggregated uncertainty statistics provide an effective cue for distinguishing informative tokens from redundant ones. Motivated by this, we propose Uncert, a training free and plug and play token importance estimation framework for spiking transformers. Specifically, Uncert models token wise class evidence with a Dirichlet distribution and summarizes each token temporal uncertainty using its mean and fluctuation across spiking steps, yielding an uncertainty aware importance score for token reduction during inference. Experiments on both static and neuromorphic benchmarks show that Uncert achieves favorable accuracy and efficiency tradeoffs, with the most consistent gains observed under token pruning. Further analysis reveals a clear empirical connection between temporal uncertainty patterns and token contribution, offering new insights into token dynamics in spiking transformers.

Beyond Single Models: Mitigating Multimodal Hallucinations via Adaptive Token Ensemble Decoding

Jinlin Li, Yuran Wang, Yifei Yuan et al.

Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have recently achieved impressive results in multimodal tasks such as image captioning and visual question answering. However, they remain prone to object hallucination -- generating descriptions of nonexistent or misidentified objects. Prior work has partially mitigated this via auxiliary training objectives or external modules, but challenges remain in terms of scalability, adaptability, and model independence. To address these limitations, we propose Adaptive Token Ensemble Decoding (ATED), a training-free, token-level ensemble framework that mitigates hallucination by aggregating predictions from multiple LVLMs during inference. ATED dynamically computes uncertainty-based weights for each model, reflecting their reliability at each decoding step. It also integrates diverse decoding paths to improve contextual grounding and semantic consistency. Experiments on standard hallucination detection benchmarks demonstrate that ATED significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods, reducing hallucination without compromising fluency or relevance. Our findings highlight the benefits of adaptive ensembling and point to a promising direction for improving LVLM robustness in high-stakes applications. The code is available at https://github.com/jinlin2021/ATED.

MagicGUI-RMS: A Multi-Agent Reward Model System for Self-Evolving GUI Agents via Automated Feedback Reflux

Zecheng Li, Zhihui Cao, Wenke Huang et al.

Graphical user interface (GUI) agents are rapidly progressing toward autonomous interaction and reliable task execution across diverse applications. However, two central challenges remain unresolved: automating the evaluation of agent trajectories and generating high-quality training data at scale to enable continual improvement. Existing approaches often depend on manual annotation or static rule-based verification, which restricts scalability and limits adaptability in dynamic environments. We present MagicGUI-RMS, a multi-agent reward model system that delivers adaptive trajectory evaluation, corrective feedback, and self-evolving learning capabilities. MagicGUI-RMS integrates a Domain-Specific Reward Model (DS-RM) with a General-Purpose Reward Model (GP-RM), enabling fine-grained action assessment and robust generalization across heterogeneous GUI tasks. To support reward learning at scale, we design a structured data construction pipeline that automatically produces balanced and diverse reward datasets, effectively reducing annotation costs while maintaining sample fidelity. During execution, the reward model system identifies erroneous actions, proposes refined alternatives, and continuously enhances agent behavior through an automated data-reflux mechanism. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MagicGUI-RMS yields substantial gains in task accuracy, behavioral robustness. These results establish MagicGUI-RMS as a principled and effective foundation for building self-improving GUI agents driven by reward-based adaptation.
