NeurIPS: Neuro-anatomical Inductive Priors for Sphere-based Brain Decoding

arXiv:2605.24993v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Current fMRI decoders face a performance-fidelity trade-off where efficient ID encoders outperform geometrically faithful surface-based models. We argue this is partly driven by inefficient surface tokenization and the failure to use anatomy as a predictive signal. We present NeurIPS, a framework that improves surface-based decoding by reframing anatomical variation from a nuisance to a powerful inductive prior. NeurIPS unites two innovations: a Selective ROI Spherical Tokenizer (SRST) for efficient geometric encoding, and a Structure-Guided Mixture of Experts (SG-MoE) that explicitly models individual anatomy using cortical features. On the Natural Scenes Dataset, NeurIPS establishes a new state-of-the-art for surface decoders and achieves performance comparable to strong 1D baselines. This is achieved with unprecedented efficiency, as the model converges dramatically faster (10 vs. 600 epochs). This efficiency enables rapid adaptation to new subjects using only 20% of data and ensures robust scalability as the training cohort is expanded. Ablations provide causal evidence that these gains are driven by the model's use of cortical features, not by memorizing subject IDs. By leveraging anatomical priors, NeurIPS provides a principled and scalable path toward robust, generalizable brain decoding.

AgentHijack: Benchmarking Computer Use Agent Robustness to Common Environment Corruptions

arXiv:2605.25707v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous computer use agents that powered by multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are emerging as capable assistants for completing complex digital workflows. However, real-world execution environments are far from ideal: pop-ups, resolution changes, and competing applications frequently interfere with agent perception and control. We introduce AgentHijack, a benchmark designed to evaluate the robustness of computer-use agents under common corruptions, where the uncertainties in dynamic environment disrupt the execution flow without direct adversarial intent. Specifically, AgentHijack introduces 9 configurable common corruptions to replicate realistic imperfect scenarios. We evaluate a variety of desktop tasks that utilize MLLM-based agents and discover that even minor instances of corruption can result in substantial performance degradation, which emphasizes the fragility of agents and underscores the necessity of robustness evaluation. Afterward, we propose AgentHijack-Agent, a framework that integrates an action generator with enhanced grounding capabilities and an onlooker responsible for behavior summarization and environment checking. Extensive experiments validate its effectiveness. Our code, environment, baseline models and data are publicly available at: https://AgentHijack.github.io.
