IF YOU EVER FEEL HEAVY
BECAUSE YOU CARE DEEPLY ABOUT INJUSTICE, SUFFERING AND ECOLOGICAL DESTRUCTION,
REMEMBER THAT A TRILLION
DOLLAR PROPAGANDA MACHINE
WAS BUILT TO MAKE YOU NUMB
AND IT DIDN'T WORK ON YOU
-- Natasha Jay

A bright turquoise wall features bold black text with a motivational message addressing feelings of heaviness due to caring about social and ecological issues. The text emphasizes the impact of a trillion-dollar propaganda machine, concluding with encouragement that it didn't succeed in overwhelming the reader.

Kodak Double-X 5222 (FF) English Alt Text: A black-and-white photo of a serene scene featuring a traditional East Asian bridge and building. The bridge has ornate railings and decorative lamp posts. The building behind it has a tiered roof with upturned eaves, typical of classical Chinese or Japanese architecture. Below, a body of water reflects the structures above. Rocks and a paved area are visible in the foreground. The composition evokes a sense of peace and timelessness, possibly part of…
Kodak Double-X 5222 (FF) English Alt Text: A black-and-white image showing a modern elevated train station in the background, with a curved roof and surrounding electrical infrastructure. The station sits atop a concrete retaining wall. In the foreground, a road curves to the left, where two white SUVs are parked near a tall streetlight. Trees and fencing line the area near the station. The composition contrasts urban architecture with everyday vehicles, creating a layered cityscape that feels…
Kodak Double-X 5222 (FF) English Alt Text: A monochrome image of an outdoor pedestrian walkway, flanked by metal railings and fencing. A gate-like structure with vertical bars and mesh fencing stands in the center, possibly marking an entrance or exit. Behind the gate, trees and greenery suggest proximity to a park. Two small figures sit or crouch near the railing in the background. Overhead, a large structure—likely a bridge or overpass—casts shadows across the walkway. The concrete ground is…
Kodak Double-X 5222 (FF) English Alt Text: A black-and-white photo of a sleek, modern train station platform. The architecture features a curved roof supported by exposed beams and large windows that allow natural light to flood the space. Glass barriers line the edge of the platform, separating passengers from the train tracks. Directional signs and floor markings indicate boarding zones and safety areas. A few people walk in the distance, adding a sense of quiet movement. The overall mood is…

GRAFT: GRaPH and Table Reasoning for Textual Alignment -- A Benchmark for Structured Instruction Following and Visual Reasoning
GRAFT is a structured multimodal benchmark for evaluating models on instruction-following, visual reasoning, and visual-textual alignment tasks. It features programmatically generated charts and synthetically rendered tables, created with Python visualization libraries to ensure control over data semantics, structure, and clarity. Each GRAFT instance pairs a chart or table image with a systematically generated, multi-step analytical question based solely on visual content. Answers are provided …

GenTune: Toward Traceable Prompts to Improve Controllability of Image Refinement in Environment Design
Environment designers in the entertainment industry create imaginative 2D and 3D scenes for games, films, and television, requiring both fine-grained control of specific details and consistent global coherence. Designers have increasingly integrated generative AI into their workflows, often relying on large language models (LLMs) to expand user prompts for text-to-image generation, then iteratively refining those prompts and applying inpainting. However, our formative study with 10 designers su…

Quantum Boltzmann Machines using Parallel Annealing for Medical Image Classification
Exploiting the fact that samples drawn from a quantum annealer inherently follow a Boltzmann-like distribution, annealing-based Quantum Boltzmann Machines (QBMs) have gained increasing popularity in the quantum research community. While they harbor great promises for quantum speed-up, their usage currently stays a costly endeavor, as large amounts of QPU time are required to train them. This limits their applicability in the NISQ era. Following the idea of Noè et al. (2024), who tried to allev…
