Coding, web apps with Gemini

Today we're releasing early access to Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview (I/O edition), an updated version of 2.5 Pro that has significantly improved capabilities for coding, especially building compelling interactive web apps. We were going to release this update at Google I/O in a couple weeks, but based on the overwhelming enthusiasm for this model, we…

University of Michigan Researchers Introduce OceanSim: A High-Performance GPU-Accelerated Underwater Simulator for Advanced Marine Robotics

Marine robotic platforms support various applications, including marine exploration, underwater infrastructure inspection, and ocean environment monitoring. While reliable perception systems enable robots to sense their surroundings, detect objects, and navigate complex underwater terrains independently, developing these systems presents unique difficulties compared to their terrestrial counterparts. Collecting real-world underwater data requires complex hardware, controlled experimental setups,…

UniME: A Two-Stage Framework for Enhancing Multimodal Representation Learning with MLLMs

The CLIP framework has become foundational in multimodal representation learning, particularly for tasks such as image-text retrieval. However, it faces several limitations: a strict 77-token cap on text input, a dual-encoder design that separates image and text processing, and a limited compositional understanding that resembles bag-of-words models. These issues hinder its effectiveness in capturing nuanced,…

How AI can decipher dolphin communication

Sharing DolphinGemma with the research community Recognizing the value of collaboration in scientific discovery, we’re planning to share DolphinGemma as an open model this summer. While trained on Atlantic spotted dolphin sounds, we anticipate its potential utility for researchers studying other cetacean species, like bottlenose or spinner dolphins. Fine-tuning may be required for different species'…

This AI Paper Introduces an LLM+FOON Framework: A Graph-Validated Approach for Robotic Cooking Task Planning from Video Instructions

Robots are increasingly being developed for home environments, specifically to enable them to perform daily activities like cooking. These tasks involve a combination of visual interpretation, manipulation, and decision-making across a series of actions. Cooking, in particular, is complex for robots due to the diversity in utensils, varying visual perspectives, and frequent omissions of intermediate…

Meta AI Introduces Token-Shuffle: A Simple AI Approach to Reducing Image Tokens in Transformers

Autoregressive (AR) models have made significant advances in language generation and are increasingly explored for image synthesis. However, scaling AR models to high-resolution images remains a persistent challenge. Unlike text, where relatively few tokens are required, high-resolution images necessitate thousands of tokens, leading to quadratic growth in computational cost. As a result, most AR-based multimodal…
