Support-Constrained RL Enables Real-World Policy Improvement without Real-World Experience

支持约束强化学习实现无真实经验的现实世界策略改进
Yu, Raymond, Huey, William, Mukadam, Mustafa, Nagabandi, Anusha, Gupta, Abhishek
Abstract
Robots trained on real world data tend to be imprecise, slow, and brittle to perturbations. Improving these policies with reinforcement learning (RL) is an appealing alternative, but this process often requires expensive training in the real world. Performing policy improvement in simulation instead provides a far cheaper alternative, but unconstrained RL in simulation can exploit contact and dynamics mismatches, resulting in unsafe behaviors that do not transfer to hardware. Common forms of regularization can furthermore limit improvement by overconstraining to an imperfect behavior prior. In this work, we propose Support-Constrained Off-Domain REinforcement (SCORE), a real-to-sim-to-real framework that constrains RL in simulation to the support of a generative policy pretrained on real data. We instantiate this constraint through flow steering, restricting SCORE to actions the base policy can already produce, which ensures transferable behaviors while maximizing policy improvement. Improving a policy with SCORE requires minimal effort: it learns from sparse rewards, avoids distillation, and leaves the base policy untouched. Across eight real-world dexterous multi-fingered robotic manipulation tasks, SCORE improves average success rate from 37.8% to 89.9%, compared to 59.5% for the best baseline, and reaches success in 36.8% fewer steps than the base policy. Ultimately, through extensive experiments and ablations, we show that simulation can substantially improve real-world manipulation policies when policy optimization is appropriately constrained, introducing a new paradigm for real-to-sim-to-real policy improvement.

在真实世界数据上训练的机器人往往表现不精确、反应缓慢,并且对扰动敏感。利用强化学习(RL)改进这些策略是一种吸引人的替代方案,但这一过程通常需要在真实世界中进行昂贵的训练。相反,在仿真中进行策略改进提供了一个更便宜的选择,但在仿真中不受约束的RL可能会利用接触和动态不匹配,从而导致不安全的行为,这些行为无法转移到硬件上。此外,常见的正则化形式可能通过过度约束不完美的行为先验而限制改进。在本研究中,我们提出了支持约束离域强化学习(SCORE),这是一个将RL在仿真中约束于在真实数据上预训练的生成策略支持的真实-仿真-真实框架。我们通过流引导实现这一约束,将SCORE限制为基础策略已经能够产生的动作,这确保了可转移的行为,同时最大化策略改进。使用SCORE改进策略所需的努力最小:它从稀疏奖励中学习,避免蒸馏,并且不改变基础策略。在八个真实世界的灵巧多指机器人操控任务中,SCORE将平均成功率从37.8%提高到89.9%,而最佳基线为59.5%,并且在比基础策略少36.8%的步骤中达成成功。最终,通过广泛的实验和消融研究,我们表明,当策略优化适当地受到约束时,仿真可以显著改善现实世界的操控策略,从而引入了一种新的真实-仿真-真实策略改进范式。视频和代码可在 https://weirdlabuw.github.io/score/ 获取。

AO-ARC: Almost-Surely Asymptotically Optimal Multi-Robot Motion Planning with ARC

AO-ARC:几乎肯定渐近最优的多机器人运动规划方法
Motes, James D., Morales, Marco, Amato, Nancy M.
Abstract
We present AO-ARC, an anytime multi-robot motion planning (MRMP) method that achieves initial solution times on par with state-of-the-art MRMP feasibility solvers while converging faster and more reliably than existing anytime MRMP methods as the number of robots increases. AO-ARC adapts the AO-x meta-algorithm for converting feasibility solvers into anytime algorithms by iteratively calling the original ARC method on bounded MRMP instances under a makespan cost metric. This exploits the adaptive (de)coupling of ARC while maintaining the consistent cost bound across robot (de)compositions needed for AO-x. We provide theoretical analysis proving the asymptotic optimality properties of AO- ARC and conduct empirical evaluation on a set of 2D scenarios with different levels of coordination complexity and a 3D manipulator scenario representative of real-world applications.

Spacecraft Fiducial Marker for Autonomous Rendezvous, Proximity Operations, and Docking

用于自主会合、近距离操作和对接的航天器基准标记
Thakur, Ravi Kumar, Vrba, Matouš, Saska, Martin
Abstract
Robotic operations in space are challenging due to the harsh environment and the high cost of failure. Fiducial markers provide visual references that aid autonomous rendezvous, proximity operations, and docking for space robots. However, existing fiducial markers are mostly single-scale and largely designed for terrestrial robotics. Such markers leave the camera's field of view at close range, precisely during the proximity and docking phases where reliable tracking is most critical. This paper presents AstraTag, a fiducial marker designed for autonomous on-orbit robotic operations. The marker template is based on a square Spidron pattern whose recursive, self-similar structure enables detection across multiple spatial scales. Marker identification uses a 48-bit signature derived from triangular sub-regions of the template and encoded with a Generalised Reed-Solomon (GRS) code. The detection pipeline performs contour-based quadrilateral localisation, perspective normalisation, and signature matching against a pre-computed dictionary. To handle markers affixed to curved spacecraft surfaces, it incorporates a Thin-Plate Spline (TPS) re-warp fallback that exploits the marker's internal rectangular borders as additional geometric correspondences. We benchmark AstraTag against three-layer Fractal ArUco and AprilTag on spacecraft mockups with flat and curved surfaces. On curved surfaces, AstraTag achieves a higher detection rate than both baselines, offering a robust recursive-marker option for space robotics.

由于恶劣的环境和高昂的失败成本,太空中的机器人操作面临挑战。基准标记提供视觉参考,帮助航天机器人实现自主会合、近距离操作和对接。然而,现有的基准标记大多是单一尺度,并且主要设计用于地面机器人。这些标记在近距离时常常超出相机的视野,尤其是在近距离和对接阶段,此时可靠跟踪至关重要。本文提出了AstraTag,一种为自主在轨机器人操作设计的基准标记。该标记模板基于方形Spidron图案,其递归自相似结构使得在多个空间尺度上均能检测。标记识别使用从模板的三角子区域派生的48位签名,并采用广义里德-所罗门(Generalised Reed-Solomon, GRS)编码。检测流程执行基于轮廓的四边形定位、透视归一化以及与预先计算字典的签名匹配。为了处理附着在曲面航天器上的标记,它结合了薄板样条(Thin-Plate Spline, TPS)重映射回退,利用标记内部的矩形边界作为额外的几何对应关系。我们在具有平面和曲面航天器模型上对AstraTag与三层Fractal ArUco和AprilTag进行了基准测试。在曲面上,AstraTag的检测率高于两个基线,提供了一个稳健的递归标记选项,适用于太空机器人。

SceneBot: Contact-Prompted General Humanoid Whole Body Tracking with Scene-Interaction

SceneBot:基于接触提示的通用类人全身跟踪与场景交互
Chen, Sirui, Zhao, Shibo, Wu, Zhen, Li, Jiaman, Shi, Guanya, Liu, C. Karen
Abstract
Current humanoid reinforcement-learning policies excel at free-space motions but struggle with contact-rich tasks, as pure kinematic tracking cannot resolve the physical ambiguities of interacting with objects and uneven terrain. To address this, we introduce SceneBot, a unified motion-tracking framework capable of handling freespace locomotion, terrain traversal, and whole-body manipulation. SceneBot conditions a single policy on both reference motions and per-link contact labels, explicitly defining expected environmental interactions. To overcome the lack of annotated interaction data, we propose a hindsight scene reconstruction approach that infers scene-interaction graphs from retargeted human motion. Trained on 7.5 hours of this reconstructed, contact-rich data, SceneBot successfully generalizes to unseen motions and environments. Our results demonstrate that SceneBot is the first general framework to seamlessly unify free-space and contact-rich behaviors executing complex, long-horizon tasks like carrying a box upstairs and establishing contact conditioning as a powerful interface for humanoid control. All code and data will be open-sourced. More demos and information are available at: https://ericcsr.github.io/scenebot/

当前的类人强化学习策略在自由空间运动方面表现出色,但在接触丰富的任务中却面临挑战,因为纯运动学跟踪无法解决与物体和不平坦地形交互时的物理模糊性。为了解决这一问题,我们提出了SceneBot,一个统一的运动跟踪框架,能够处理自由空间运动、地形穿越和全身操控。SceneBot将单一策略条件化于参考运动和每个关节的接触标签,明确界定预期的环境交互。为了克服缺乏注释交互数据的问题,我们提出了一种事后场景重建方法,从重新定向的人类运动中推断场景交互图。SceneBot在7.5小时的重建接触丰富数据上进行训练,成功地推广到未见过的运动和环境。我们的结果表明,SceneBot是第一个能够无缝统一自由空间和接触丰富行为的通用框架,能够执行复杂的长时间任务,如将箱子搬上楼梯,并将接触条件建立为类人控制的强大接口。所有代码和数据将开源。更多演示和信息请访问:https://ericcsr.github.io/scenebot/

Learning to Throw: Agile and Accurate Cable-Suspended Payload Delivery with a Quadrotor

学习投掷:四旋翼无人机灵活且精确的电缆悬挂载荷投递
Zhai, Yifan, Raimondi, Elia, Ren, Yunfan, Geles, Ismail, Armati, Yannick, Xing, Jiaxu, Scaramuzza, Davide
Abstract
Quadrotors offer the agility needed to rapidly transport suspended payloads during time-critical applications, including search-and-rescue and medical delivery. While suspended-payload transport and traversal for these missions are well studied, the highly dynamic targeted release of the payload remains comparatively underexplored. State-of-the-art approaches typically rely on model-based trajectory optimization and tracking; however, these methods often yield sub-optimal performance due to conservative feasibility constraints, tracking errors, and the inherent difficulty of analytically modeling flexible rope dynamics. To overcome these limitations, we propose a hybrid simulation framework that couples a high-fidelity analytical quadrotor model with a physics solver for complex rope and payload interactions. By exchanging forces between the two domains at every step, we obtain a physically accurate simulation of the suspended-payload system. Leveraging this environment, we train a deep reinforcement learning (RL) policy that executes agile, accurate payload throws to designated targets. Deployed zero-shot on hardware, our RL policy pushes the boundary of the agility-accuracy trade-off, outperforming the model-based baseline by reducing the landing error by up to 50% and the throw duration by up to 30%. Ablation studies confirm that the coupled simulation is the key enabler of these gains. We further show that the same pipeline trains a policy driven by visual observations rather than an explicit state estimate, achieving accuracy comparable to that of the state-based policy. To accelerate future research in dynamic aerial manipulation, we open-source the simulator to the community upon acceptance.

四旋翼无人机提供了在时间关键应用中快速运输悬挂载荷所需的灵活性,包括搜索与救援和医疗投递。虽然这些任务中的悬挂载荷运输和穿越已得到充分研究,但高动态目标释放载荷的过程仍然相对欠缺探索。现有的最先进方法通常依赖于基于模型的轨迹优化和跟踪;然而,由于保守的可行性约束、跟踪误差以及灵活绳索动力学的解析建模固有的困难,这些方法往往导致次优的性能。为克服这些局限性,我们提出了一种混合仿真框架,将高保真度的分析四旋翼模型与复杂绳索和载荷交互的物理求解器相结合。通过在每一步之间交换两个领域的力,我们获得了悬挂载荷系统的物理准确仿真。利用这一环境,我们训练了一种深度强化学习(RL)策略,以执行灵活且精确的载荷投掷,目标指向指定目标。在硬件上零样本部署,我们的RL策略推动了灵活性与精确性之间的权衡,表现优于基于模型的基线,将着陆误差减少了多达50%,投掷持续时间减少了多达30%。消融研究确认,耦合仿真是实现这些增益的关键因素。我们进一步展示了相同的流程可以训练一种基于视觉观察而非显式状态估计的策略,达到与基于状态的策略相当的精度。为了加速未来在动态空中操作方面的研究,我们在论文接受后将仿真器开源给社区。

Physics-Guided Robotic Radiation Source Localization along Arbitrary Measurement Paths in Unstructured Environments

基于物理引导的机器人辐射源定位方法:沿任意测量路径在非结构化环境中的应用
Son, Hojoon, Tan, Kai, Zhang, Fan
Abstract
Using robots to estimate the location of the radiation source is an effective way to improve efficiency and safety. Existing methods focus on planning the robot's path to achieve precise estimation, typically approaching the source. However, approaching the source increases the risk of radiation damage to a robot. In addition, a path-planning algorithm designed solely for radiation source localization (RSL) limits the flexibility of missions that deploy robots into radioactive environments. This study presents an automation framework for robotic RSL that leverages a physics-informed machine learning (PIML) model to precisely estimate the source location, regardless of measurement paths, in unknown environments. Physics-inspired model tensors have been designed for PIML to handle attenuated gamma-ray flux signals from unknown obstacles, and multiple models are computed in parallel to improve the robustness and precision of the RSL. The proposed method is evaluated in high-fidelity simulation environments using Monte Carlo particle transport across diverse randomized domains, including spatial scales, radiation source types, obstacle materials and geometries, and robot trajectories. The method is also validated through physical experiments on configurations that are not included in the simulation-based evaluation. The continuous learning technique is applied in real-robot deployment to enhance the practical applicability of the online robotic RSL system. The proposed method advances robot radiation perception from pointwise flux detection to spatial intelligence.

利用机器人估计辐射源的位置是一种提高效率和安全性的有效方法。现有方法主要集中在规划机器人的路径以实现精确估计,通常是接近辐射源。然而,接近辐射源会增加机器人遭受辐射损伤的风险。此外,专门为辐射源定位(RSL)设计的路径规划算法限制了将机器人部署到放射性环境中的任务灵活性。本研究提出了一种机器人RSL的自动化框架,该框架利用物理信息机器学习(PIML)模型在未知环境中无论测量路径如何都能精确估计源位置。为PIML设计了基于物理的模型张量,以处理来自未知障碍物的衰减伽马射线通量信号,并且多个模型并行计算以提高RSL的鲁棒性和精确性。所提出的方法在高保真模拟环境中进行了评估,采用蒙特卡洛粒子传输技术,涵盖了多种随机化领域,包括空间尺度、辐射源类型、障碍物材料和几何形状以及机器人轨迹。该方法还通过物理实验进行了验证,实验配置不包括在基于模拟的评估中。连续学习技术被应用于真实机器人部署,以增强在线机器人RSL系统的实际适用性。所提出的方法将机器人辐射感知从点状通量检测提升到空间智能。

P-ARC: Exploiting Subproblem Independence for Parallel Multi-Robot Motion Planning

P-ARC:利用子问题独立性进行并行多机器人运动规划
Motes, James D., Morales, Marco, Amato, Nancy M.
Abstract
This paper presents Parallel ARC (P-ARC), a parallel variant of the Adaptive Robot Coordination (ARC) approach to multi-robot motion planning (MRMP). P-ARC proposes a parallel variant for each of the three main stages in ARC: initial individual solutions, conflict detection, and conflict resolution, exploiting the independence created by ARC's decomposition of the MRMP problem. Additionally, we employ an OR-parallel multi-start strategy to both ARC and P-ARC, creating a hybrid parallel strategy OR-P-ARC. We evaluate the impact of the different parallel strategies for ARC using a set of scaling 2D mobile and planar manipulator scenarios with up to 128 robots to control for conflicts and work distribution across the stages of ARC. Additionally, we demonstrate planning time speedups approaching 4X over the sequential version for large Panda multi-manipulator teams in real-world inspired scenarios when deploying 16 CPU cores.

Direct Action-Head Injection of A Grounded 3D Point Unlocks Spatial and Task Generalization

直接作用-头部注入一个基础的3D点以解锁空间和任务泛化
Tsai, Shiang-Feng, Jhang, Jin-Cheng, Tai, Yen-Ling, Lai, Jia-Hong, Wong, Shih-Yun, KangTung-Hsu, Chen, Yi-Ting
Abstract
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models leverage large-scale vision-language pretraining for flexible robot manipulation, yet at test time they remain brittle along two axes: spatial generalization, when object positions differ from those seen during training, and task generalization, when a familiar scene is paired with a different language instruction than the one seen in training. A growing family of methods addresses this brittleness by endowing a policy with the spatial and task-aware information such as 2D pixel-coordinate for object localization and placement. However, we find that existing representation through language prompting or visual prompting does not address the limitations; in contrast, exploiting a 3D point-based representation and feeding it directly to the action head leads to substantial improvements-revealing that how the grounding signal is represented and injected into the VLA is the true game changer. Thus, we propose a lightweight, model-agnostic module that represents the grounding signal in 3D, computes its relative displacement to the gripper, and injects the resulting spatial embedding directly into the action head through adaptive layer normalization. The entire module is a two-layer MLP that requires no changes to the VLA backbone or pretraining pipeline. On LIBERO-PRO, our method improves the average success rate of GR00T-N1.6 from 31.2 to 77.5 points under task perturbation and from 28.1 to 60.2 points under position perturbation (gains of 46.3 and 32.1 points). Comparable gains are achieved for $\pi_{0.5}$ as well, demonstrating that the mechanism is backbone-agnostic. Together, these results support our central finding: given adequate grounding lifted into 3D, injecting it directly into the action head is what unlocks both spatial and task generalization in VLAs-achievable with nothing more than a lightweight module on top of a pretrained backbone.

视觉-语言-动作(VLA)模型利用大规模的视觉-语言预训练实现灵活的机器人操作,但在测试时仍然在两个方面表现脆弱:空间泛化,即当物体位置与训练期间所见不同;以及任务泛化,即当熟悉的场景与不同于训练期间所见的语言指令配对时。越来越多的方法通过赋予策略空间和任务感知信息(例如用于物体定位和放置的2D像素坐标)来解决这种脆弱性。然而,我们发现现有的通过语言提示或视觉提示的表示并未解决这些局限性;相反,利用基于3D点的表示并直接将其输入到动作头部会带来显著的改善——揭示了如何表示和注入基础信号到VLA中才是真正的游戏改变者。因此,我们提出了一个轻量级的、模型无关的模块,该模块在3D中表示基础信号,计算其相对于夹持器的相对位移,并通过自适应层归一化将生成的空间嵌入直接注入到动作头部。整个模块是一个两层的多层感知器(MLP),无需对VLA主干或预训练管道进行任何更改。在LIBERO-PRO上,我们的方法在任务扰动下将GR00T-N1.6的平均成功率从31.2提高到77.5,在位置扰动下从28.1提高到60.2(分别增加了46.3和32.1点)。对于$ ext{π}_{0.5}$也取得了类似的增益,证明该机制与主干无关。综合这些结果支持我们的核心发现:在3D中提供足够的基础信号,直接将其注入到动作头部是解锁VLA的空间和任务泛化的关键——这一切仅需在预训练主干之上添加一个轻量级模块即可实现。

CWI: Composite Humanoid Whole-Body Imitation System for Loco-manipulation

CWI:复合类人全身模仿系统用于运动操控
Ge, Wenqi, Guo, Junde, Fu, Zhen, Yang, Shunpeng, Chen, Jiayu, Chen, Hua
Abstract
Achieving everyday tasks with humanoid robots requires coordinating stable locomotion with versatile manipulation. However, existing whole-body controllers still face significant challenges. Methods trained solely via command sampling, without motion-capture (MoCap) data, often struggle with sparse rewards and require carefully tuned curricula to converge. This is especially problematic for upper-body control, where the resulting motions deviate from human-like statistics and degrade whole-body coordination. Conversely, approaches that imitate full-body MoCap data suffer from dataset imbalance, as many locomotion trajectories are overly aggressive for stable-locomotion scenarios, necessitating extensive data filtering and augmentation. To address this, we present Composite Whole-Body Imitation (CWI), a framework that decouples the use of MoCap data for upper-body manipulation and lower-body locomotion. This decoupling allows us to exploit the full MoCap dataset of diverse manipulation references, while stable, command-conditioned lower-body locomotion is guided by dual discriminators trained on curated expert-quality walking and squatting clips via an Adversarial Motion Prior (AMP). A multi-critic architecture reduces conflicts among locomotion, manipulation, and motion-style objectives, and a teacher--student distillation stage yields a whole-body policy conditioned only on bimanual hand poses and velocity/height commands. We evaluate CWI through simulation experiments and real-world deployment on a full-size LimX Oli humanoid. The results show competitive loco-manipulation performance, robust whole-body coordination, and practical teleoperation without full-body motion-capture equipment.

实现类人机器人完成日常任务需要协调稳定的运动与多样的操控。然而,现有的全身控制器仍面临重大挑战。仅通过命令采样训练的方法,在没有运动捕捉(MoCap)数据的情况下,往往难以应对稀疏奖励,并需要精心调整的课程才能收敛。这对于上半身控制尤其成问题,导致生成的动作偏离类人统计特征,降低全身协调性。相反,模仿全身MoCap数据的方法则受到数据集不平衡的影响,因为许多运动轨迹对于稳定运动场景而言过于激进,需进行大量数据过滤和增强。为了解决这一问题,我们提出了复合全身模仿(CWI)框架,该框架将上半身操控与下半身运动的MoCap数据使用解耦。这种解耦使我们能够利用多样化操控参考的完整MoCap数据集,同时稳定的、基于命令的下半身运动由通过对策运动先验(AMP)训练的双鉴别器引导,这些鉴别器基于策划的专家级行走和下蹲视频。多批评家架构减少了运动、操控和动作风格目标之间的冲突,而教师-学生蒸馏阶段则生成仅基于双手姿态和速度/高度命令的全身策略。我们通过仿真实验和在全尺寸LimX Oli类人机器人上的实际部署评估了CWI。结果显示出竞争力的运动操控性能、稳健的全身协调性,以及在没有全身运动捕捉设备的情况下的实用远程操作。项目页面及补充材料可在 https://cwi-ral.github.io/CWI-RAL-Webpage 找到。

DIM-WAM: World-Action Modeling with Diverse Historical Event Memory

DIM-WAM:具有多样化历史事件记忆的世界行动建模
Wang, Kai, Gu, Zhaopeng, Chen, Yixiang, Xu, Yuan, Ma, Qisen, Su, Peng, Li, Zhaowen, Huang, Yan, Wang, Liang
Abstract
World-action models have shown promising robot-manipulation performance by jointly predicting future visual states and actions. However, existing methods mainly rely on short-term history and short-horizon future prediction, which is insufficient for long-horizon tasks whose correct execution depends on earlier observations and task progress. Such temporally dependent tasks require effective use of complementary temporal information, including recent local context, cross-stage historical events, immediate future dynamics, and global task progress. To address long-term forgetting and poor awareness of the global task state, we introduce DiM-WAM, a memory-augmented world-action model that integrates multi-scale historical context, local future dynamics, and global task progress. The memory extracts compact visual event information from real observations, updates multiple memory banks through independent similarity-based merging, and then reads the bank-identity- and time-embedded long-term context to condition video and action denoising. A progress-supervision objective further encourages memory tokens to encode not only completed historical events but also the current task stage and its implications for the remaining task. On RMBench, DiM-WAM raises average success from 28.4% with LingBot-VA to 69.8%, exceeding the explicit-memory Mem-0 baseline at 42.0%. On four real-world Franka tasks, it improves average stage success from 70.7% to 91.5% and full-task success from 52.5% to 80.0%.

世界行动模型通过联合预测未来视觉状态和动作,展现了令人期待的机器人操控性能。然而,现有方法主要依赖于短期历史和短期未来预测,这对于长时间跨度的任务而言是不够的,因为这些任务的正确执行依赖于早期观察和任务进展。这类时间依赖的任务需要有效利用互补的时间信息,包括近期的局部上下文、跨阶段的历史事件、即时的未来动态以及全球任务进展。为了解决长期遗忘和对全球任务状态的认知不足的问题,我们提出了DiM-WAM,这是一种增强记忆的世界行动模型,整合了多尺度的历史上下文、局部未来动态和全球任务进展。该记忆模块从真实观察中提取紧凑的视觉事件信息,通过独立的基于相似度的合并更新多个记忆库,然后读取嵌入银行身份和时间的长期上下文,以调节视频和动作去噪。进度监督目标进一步鼓励记忆标记不仅编码已完成的历史事件,还编码当前任务阶段及其对剩余任务的影响。在RMBench上,DiM-WAM将LingBot-VA的平均成功率从28.4%提升至69.8%,超过了显式记忆Mem-0基线的42.0%。在四个真实世界的Franka任务中,它将平均阶段成功率从70.7%提升至91.5%,将完整任务成功率从52.5%提升至80.0%。项目页面:https://wangkai-casia.github.io/dim-wam/

Drop-Then-Recovery: How Redundant Are Vision-Language-Action Models?

丢弃后恢复:视觉-语言-动作模型的冗余性如何?
Sun, Guoheng, Feng, Kaixi, He, Shwai, Gong, Xiaochuan, He, Yexiao, Wang, Ziyao, Shen, Zheyu, Ye, Wanghao, Kompella, Ramana Rao, Liu, Gaowen, Li, Ang
Abstract
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models enable instruction-driven robotic manipulation, but they inherit oversized language backbones from pretrained VLMs whose capacity far exceeds what is needed for short robotic instructions. This raises a basic question: how much of a VLA model is actually necessary for closed-loop control? In this work, we study architectural redundancy in VLA models by using transformer block removal as a controlled intervention. We introduce \textbf{Drop-Then-Recovery (DTR)}, an analysis protocol that removes selected blocks from a pretrained VLA model and then fine-tunes the resulting model to measure whether the removed capacity was necessary for downstream control. To make this intervention reliable, we propose \textbf{GateProbe}, a one-shot virtual-gate sensitivity metric that ranks blocks by their contribution to the downstream action loss. Across multiple VLA architectures, manipulation benchmarks and even real-robot industrial scenarios, we find a strong asymmetry in post-removal recoverability: \ul{\textit{language backbones are highly redundant for standard robotic manipulation tasks, whereas vision and action pathways are substantially less tolerant to removal}}. On LIBERO, removing half of the LLM blocks even improves OpenVLA-OFT from 95.0% to 98.3% under the same downstream fine-tuning budget, and retaining only two language blocks still recovers baseline-level performance. These results suggest that current VLA benchmarks may exert limited pressure on deep language grounding and compositional instruction understanding, and that future VLA architectures should allocate capacity more deliberately across language, vision, and action components.

视觉-语言-动作(VLA)模型使得基于指令的机器人操作成为可能,但它们继承了来自预训练视觉-语言模型(VLM)的过大语言骨干,其容量远超短期机器人指令所需。这引发了一个基本问题:VLA 模型中实际需要多少部分用于闭环控制?在本研究中,我们通过使用变换器块移除作为一种受控干预,研究 VLA 模型中的架构冗余。我们引入了 extbf{丢弃后恢复(Drop-Then-Recovery, DTR)},一种分析协议,该协议从预训练的 VLA 模型中移除选定的块,然后微调结果模型,以测量被移除的容量是否对下游控制是必要的。为了使这一干预可靠,我们提出了 extbf{门探测(GateProbe)},一种一次性虚拟门敏感度指标,通过其对下游动作损失的贡献对块进行排序。在多种 VLA 架构、操作基准以及实际机器人工业场景中,我们发现移除后的恢复性存在显著不对称性: extit{语言骨干对于标准机器人操作任务高度冗余,而视觉和动作路径对移除的容忍度则显著较低}。在 LIBERO 上,移除一半的 LLM 块甚至在相同的下游微调预算下将 OpenVLA-OFT 的性能从 95.0% 提高到 98.3%,而仅保留两个语言块仍能恢复到基线水平的性能。这些结果表明,当前的 VLA 基准可能对深层语言基础和组合指令理解施加的压力有限,未来的 VLA 架构应更有意识地在语言、视觉和动作组件之间分配容量。代码可在 https://github.com/s1ghhh/VLADrop 获取。

SpikeVLA: Vision-Language-Action Models with Spiking Neural Networks

SpikeVLA:基于脉冲神经网络的视觉-语言-动作模型
Song, Ruiqi, Nie, Dujun, Teng, Siyu, Ding, Baiyong, Zhang, Xiaotong, Li, Dong, Zhang, Chenming, Li, Yuchen, Wu, Hangbin, Chen, Long
Abstract
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have become a dominant paradigm for embodied intelligence. However, most existing approaches are built on large-scale transformers, resulting in substantial inference latency and energy consumption that limit their practical deployment in low-power, real-time scenarios. We propose SpikeVLA, a spiking VLA architecture for embodied navigation with energy-efficient inference, consisting of three key components. (i) A spiking vision encoder, Spike-V, that replaces dense continuous layers with event-driven spiking layers to reduce the energy consumption of visual representation learning. (ii) A multi-modal spiking large language model, Spike-L, that reformulates cross-modal reasoning with spiking dynamics and token-level event-driven sparsity to further lower computational cost. (iii) A spiking action policy network, Spike-A employs Laplacian-kernel population coding with a multi-layer fully connected SNN, and decodes spiking activities into stable and robust continuous control with energy-efficient inference under low-power constraints.

LXD-SLAM: LiDAR+X Dense SLAM with $\sum_{i=0}^{5}C_5^i$ Configurable Sensor Combinations

LXD-SLAM:具有 $ extstyle extsum_{i=0}^{5}C_5^i$ 可配置传感器组合的 LiDAR+X 稠密 SLAM
Wang, Zhong, Zhang, Lin, Li, Linfei, Shen, Ying, Zhang, Shaoming, Shi, Pengcheng, Zhao, Shengjie
Abstract
Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is essential for autonomous systems, yet achieving reliable, globally consistent pose estimation and dense mapping in complex environments remains challenging due to geometric degeneracy and sensor drift. While multi-sensor fusion addresses these issues, existing systems often lack the modularity to adapt to diverse platforms and rely on mathematically inconsistent fusion or suboptimal map representations. To address these limitations, we propose LXD-SLAM (LiDAR+X Dense SLAM), a highly versatile and unified multi-sensor fusion framework. Centered around 3D LiDAR, our system allows for the plug-and-play integration of LiDAR, Camera, IMU, Wheel Encoder, and GNSS, supporting up to 32 distinct sensor combinations. We employ a mathematically unified Iterative Error-Sate Kalman Filter with an adaptive hierarchical prediction strategy and an update step that minimizes point-to-mesh distances and visual reprojection errors. To support this, the environment is modeled using continuous multi-layered Gaussian Process (GP) sub-meshes, which enables efficient ray-to-mesh depth recovery for visual features. For global consistency, we introduce an Extended Scan Context (ESC) descriptor derived from the GP sub-meshes alongside a Bidirectional PnP optimization for robust multi-modal loop closure within a hybrid pose graph. Extensive evaluations on public datasets and real-world experiments demonstrate that LXD-SLAM matches or exceeds state-of-the-art specialized odometry solutions across various configurations while generating high-fidelity, globally consistent dense meshes in real-time. The relevant codes and data will be made available at https://github.com/peterWon/LXD-SLAM upon publication.

同步定位与地图构建(SLAM)对于自主系统至关重要,但在复杂环境中实现可靠的、全局一致的姿态估计和稠密地图构建仍然面临挑战,这主要是由于几何退化和传感器漂移。虽然多传感器融合可以解决这些问题,但现有系统往往缺乏适应多样化平台的模块化能力,并依赖于数学上不一致的融合或次优的地图表示。为了解决这些局限性,我们提出了 LXD-SLAM(LiDAR+X 稠密 SLAM),这是一个高度灵活且统一的多传感器融合框架。我们的系统以 3D LiDAR 为核心,允许 LiDAR、相机、IMU、轮编码器和 GNSS 的即插即用集成,支持多达 32 种不同的传感器组合。我们采用了一个数学上统一的迭代误差状态卡尔曼滤波器,结合自适应分层预测策略和一个更新步骤,以最小化点到网格的距离和视觉重投影误差。为支持这一点,环境使用连续多层高斯过程(GP)子网格建模,这使得视觉特征的高效光线到网格深度恢复成为可能。为了实现全局一致性,我们引入了一个扩展扫描上下文(ESC)描述符,该描述符源自 GP 子网格,并结合双向 PnP 优化,以实现混合姿态图中的稳健多模态回环闭合。在公共数据集和实际实验上的广泛评估表明,LXD-SLAM 在各种配置下与最先进的专业里程计解决方案相匹配或超越,同时实时生成高保真、全局一致的稠密网格。相关代码和数据将在出版后提供于 https://github.com/peterWon/LXD-SLAM。

Booster Lab: A Data-Centric Pipeline for Learning Deployable Humanoid Locomotion Policies

助推器实验室:一个以数据为中心的可部署类人运动策略学习管道
Chen, Penghui, Zheng, Tinglong, Zhang, Yufeng, Zhao, Mingguo
Abstract
Humanoid robot motion learning requires not only task-oriented control policies but also physically feasible and natural behaviors that can be transferred to real robots. However, robot-feasible motion data are often scarce: raw human demonstrations may be incompatible with the robot morphology, open-source clips vary in quality, and simulation-collected robot trajectories still require feasibility checking. To address these challenges, we propose a data-centric training and deployment pipeline that integrates motion data curation, real-to-sim model adaptation, AMP-based reinforcement learning, and sim-to-real deployment. We validate the framework on the Booster T1 robot and further provide preliminary cross-platform validation on Booster K1.

PPO-EAL: Exact Augmented Lagrangian Proximal Policy Optimization for Safe Robotic Control

PPO-EAL:用于安全机器人控制的精确增强拉格朗日近端策略优化
Ding, Jiatao, Gao, Songqun, Del Prete, Andrea, Saveriano, Matteo
Abstract
Reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a promising solution to accomplish complex robotic control tasks; however, most of the current work ignores the safety requirements. Safe RL seeks to maximize task performance while satisfying explicit physical constraints, but current algorithms struggle to learn the policy efficiently with precise constraint satisfaction. This work proposes PPO-EAL, a novel first-order constrained policy optimization framework that integrates exact augmented Lagrangian optimization into proximal policy optimization for safe robotic control. By combining clipped policy updates with exact quadratic penalty terms, PPO-EAL achieves theoretically grounded constraint enforcement without requiring impractically large penalty factors. A momentum-regulated multiplier update further improves dual-variable stability, reducing constraint oscillation and unsafe behavior while preserving task performance. We provide exactness and convergence analysis under standard stochastic approximation assumptions. Extensive validation across diverse GPU-accelerated robotic benchmarks-including cart-pole balancing, cart-double-pendulum stabilization, 7-DoF Franka end-effector reaching, and quadrupedal locomotion-demonstrates superior safety precision and reward performance compared with state-of-the-art first-order safe RL baselines. Finally, we demonstrate zero-shot sim-to-real deployment in a contact-rich gear assembly task, where PPO-EAL substantially improves task success, reduces peak contact force, and enhances operational robustness. These results establish PPO-EAL as a general and practically deployable safe RL framework for diverse safety-critical robotic systems.

LocalNav: Distilling Frontier VLMs and Embodied RL for On-Device Object Goal Navigation

LocalNav:将前沿视觉语言模型与具身强化学习提炼用于设备端目标导航
Baumann, Nicolas, Boyle, Liam, Deng, Pu, Ghignone, Edoardo, Sun, Boyang, Pollefeys, Marc, Benini, Luca, Magno, Michele
Abstract
Vision Language Models (VLMs) have emerged in the robotic domain as a powerful tool that enables environmental perception with language context, serving as a catalyst for open-vocabulary tasks like ObjectNav. Yet, their computational footprint typically confines them to cloud execution, hindering low-latency inference with local deployment on resource-constrained robots. To address this challenge, we present a distillation strategy that transfers complex spatial-semantic reasoning from large frontier models into a lightweight, 4B-parameter local VLM for edge execution on embedded GPU devices (e.g., Jetson Orin). We first establish a State of the Art (SotA), Scene Graph (SG)-based pipeline using Claude Sonnet 4.6, achieving a 39.7% Success Rate (SR) on the HM3D OVON benchmark. We then demonstrate that fine-tuning Qwen3.5-4B on just 500 frontier reasoning traces effectively enables navigation capabilities, yielding a SR of 34.5%, narrowing the gap to the performance of large cloud models. Finally, we introduce E-RLVR with Token Generation (TG) regularization to compress output sequence lengths for physical deployment while grounding the agent in its task. This downstream optimization reduces TG overhead by 72.1% and latency by 71.8%. Combined with quantization, this joint strategy yields a cumulative 82.8% reduction in overall inference latency without significantly sacrificing performance, presenting a viable paradigm for local, low-latency VLM execution on mobile robots.

S$^2$-VLA: State-Space Guided Vision-Language-Action Models for Long-Horizon Manipulation

S$^2$-VLA:用于长时间操作的状态空间引导视觉-语言-动作模型
Xie, Zhipeng, Han, Zongyi, Wei, Xiangyi, Sun, Shiliang, Li, Yang, Zhao, Jing
Abstract
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated strong capabilities in robotic manipulation, but their performance degrades significantly in long-horizon tasks due to cumulative error propagation. This limitation largely arises from static feature fusion mechanisms that rely on fixed weights to combine visual, language, and action representations, preventing the model from adapting to different phases of task execution. To address this limitation, we propose S$^2$-VLA, a framework that introduces a State-Space Guided Adaptive Attention (SSGAA) mechanism. SSGAA maintains a belief state that tracks task progression and generates dynamic gating weights to adaptively fuse information from three complementary sources visual features for spatial perception, task intents for high-level task planning, and temporal action sequences for execution consistency. This adaptive fusion allows the model to shift its focus throughout task execution, aligning with the evolving requirements of different task stages. Despite its compact 2B parameter size, S$^2$-VLA consistently outperforms larger 7B-scale models and achieves state-of-the-art performance on long-horizon manipulation benchmarks, including LIBERO and SimplerEnv. highlighting the importance of adaptive feature fusion for long-horizon robotic manipulation.

视觉-语言-动作(VLA)模型在机器人操作中展现了强大的能力,但在长时间任务中,由于累积误差传播,其性能显著下降。这一限制主要源于依赖固定权重的静态特征融合机制,该机制将视觉、语言和动作表示结合在一起,阻碍了模型适应任务执行不同阶段的能力。为了解决这一限制,我们提出了S$^2$-VLA框架,该框架引入了一种状态空间引导自适应注意力(SSGAA)机制。SSGAA维护一个信念状态,用于跟踪任务进展,并生成动态门控权重,以自适应地融合来自三个互补来源的信息:用于空间感知的视觉特征、高层任务规划的任务意图,以及用于执行一致性的时间动作序列。这种自适应融合使模型能够在任务执行过程中调整其关注点,以适应不同任务阶段不断变化的需求。尽管其参数规模仅为2B,S$^2$-VLA仍然持续超越更大规模的7B模型,并在长时间操作基准测试中取得了最先进的性能,包括LIBERO和SimplerEnv,突显了自适应特征融合在长时间机器人操作中的重要性。

Swarm sign language: motion-based communication between drones

群体手语:无人机之间的基于运动的通信
Rey, Thomas, Moras, Julien, Eudes, Alexandre, Manzanera, Antoine
Abstract
In stealth-constrained swarm robotics, visual communication provides a critical alternative to active radio transmissions, which might be jammed. This research investigates motion-based communication for non-active information exchange, utilizing modular, dynamically feasible planar trajectories as visual cues. On the receiver drone end, a pose estimator tracks the transmitting drone's pose, feeding it into our custom 3DTrajDecoder. The decoder is designed to classify and segment the spatiotemporal sequence while simultaneously regressing its size and normal vector. To robustly train the decoder on both communicative and non-communicative trajectories, we developed a configurable online procedural generation pipeline. We validate our system through real-world testing and simulation to define its operating domain, supported by an extensive ablation study detailing our architectural choices and system limitations.

Drifting in the Future: Stabilizing Path Following Drifting on High-Latency Vehicle Systems

未来的漂移:在高延迟车辆系统上稳定路径跟随漂移
Werner, Frederik, Heintzenberg, Till, Lienkamp, Markus, Betz, Johannes
Abstract
Autonomously controlling and handling a vehicle at and beyond its stability limit is a mathematically and computationally demanding task. Prior demonstrations of automated drifting have been limited to research platforms with instantaneous torque delivery and independently actuated wheels, leaving their applicability to production vehicles with actuator latencies and mechanically coupled axles uncertain. To overcome these issues, we design a predictor to compensate for powertrain delays, develop a revised control formulation to accommodate higher actuation latencies as well as a differential coupling on the driven axle, and introduce brake-based velocity stabilization. This paper presents the controller framework, the model extensions, and real-world experimental results. We observe that our controller enables a production sports car with a combustion engine to robustly sustain circular and figure-eight drifts, limiting lateral error to 1.1 m and sideslip overshoot to 0.06 rad despite actuator delays exceeding 250 ms, while mitigating oscillations and maintaining stable path and sideslip tracking. In conclusion, our results establish that autonomous drifting is feasible on production-ready vehicles, opening pathways to advanced safety systems capable of stabilizing cars in scenarios where traditional control fails.

When Multi-Robot Systems Meet Agentic AI:Towards Embodied Collective Intelligence

当多机器人系统遇上自主智能:迈向具身集体智能
Yan, Yuxuan, Jia, Yuanyuan, Yang, Qianqian
Abstract
Embodied AI is increasingly becoming agentic, shifting robots from perception--control pipelines towards closed-loop systems that can retrieve context, deliberate during execution, monitor feedback, and refine future behavior. In parallel, robotics research has also moved from single-robot autonomy towards multi-robot systems, driven by the need for wider sensing, distributed action, heterogeneous capabilities, and fault tolerance. As AI agents move from single-agent use towards multi-agent collaboration, robotics faces a parallel challenge: robot teams must move beyond sharing maps, task assignments, and datasets towards sharing the state produced by embodied agent loops. This article explores Embodied Collective Intelligence (ECI), a future multi-robot paradigm in which a robot team accumulates and uses world context, task progress, and skill experience as shared resources. Specifically, we first review how embodied AI is becoming agentic and how multi-robot cooperation has evolved. We then present Embodied Collective Intelligence through Co-Perception, Co-Action, and Co-Evolution. Finally, we use an illustrative navigation study to examine one concrete component of the concept: shared world-memory inheritance. The study shows that a newly added robot can benefit from merged team memory, but it is not intended as a full evaluation of the ECI framework. Taken together, the review and conceptual framework motivate Embodied Collective Intelligence as a direction for embodied multi-agent intelligence, while the case study grounds one measurable part of the concept.

This paper presents a cloud-native simulation infrastructure framework for embodied intelligence that supports large-scale training, standardized evaluation, and simulation-based data collection. The framework unifies simulation environment generation, task execution, trajectory collection, model evaluation, data management, and cloud services into a scalable and reproducible platform. To address the high cost, limited scalability, and poor reproducibility of real-world robotic data collection, the framework adopts cloud-native technologies including elastic resource scheduling, containerized simulation, unified data management, and service-oriented system design, enabling efficient large-scale simulation for multi-model and multi-task workloads. Built on a four-layer architecture, the framework provides standardized environment assets, automated task generation, trajectory collection, benchmark evaluation, and closed-loop data optimization. It further integrates representative systems including D-VLA, RL-VLA3, Sword, and Pre-VLA to support scalable simulation, dynamic scheduling, visual augmentation, and real-time data filtering. We argue that cloud-native simulation infrastructure provides a unified foundation for data generation, model training, standardized evaluation, and real-world deployment, and will play a key role in the future development of embodied intelligence.

Chen, Sijin, Jiang, Kaixuan, Shi, Haixin, Wang, Yanhui, Zhong, Weiheng, Li, Haosheng, Jiang, Bo, Liu, Yuxiao, Liu, Xihui
Abstract
We study whether we can learn novel manipulation skills from human actions to a bi-manual robot with parallel grippers. Human action data is cheap, abundant, and diverse, making it one of the most promising resources for scaling up robot learning. Yet transferring skills from humans to robots remains hard: most prior work treats humans as just another bi-manual 6DoF embodiment, where hand-pose estimates are noisy and the contact patterns of human fingers differ fundamentally from those of a parallel gripper. We argue that learning rotation-inclusive action signals from human data is therefore sub-optimal, and instead propose a bridging action representation: the relative wrist translation within the initial head-camera frame, an action space shared by humans and robots. To handle the potential absence of certain action components in different embodiments, we build a $\pi_0$-like vision-language-action model with interleaved action tokens and attention masking. On a suite of novel bi-manual manipulation tasks, our bridging action transfers human manipulation knowledge to robots far more effectively than noisy 6DoF human actions and scales with the amount of human data.

PA-BiCoop: A Primary-Auxiliary Cooperative Framework for General Bimanual Manipulation

PA-BiCoop:一种用于一般双手操作的主辅协作框架
Qicheng, Bai, Ziru, Wang, Teli, Ma, Guang, Dai, Jingdong, Wang, Mengmeng, Wang
Abstract
Bimanual manipulation is essential for advanced robotic systems because it offers higher efficiency and flexibility compared to single-arm configurations. However, existing approaches either lack inter-arm interaction or ignore the need for a dynamic division of labor, treating the arms as functionally equivalent. To address these limitations, this paper draws inspiration from human bimanual manipulation where one arm handles core operations and the other provides auxiliary support, and proposes PA-BiCoop, a new single-model bimanual cooperation framework with dynamic primary-auxiliary arm differentiation. PA-BiCoop categorizes robotic arms into primary and auxiliary arms with adaptively adjustable roles across task stages, employs two specialized decoders that share a global feature encoder: the primary decoder generates the primary arm's base-coordinate pose and core-task affordance heatmaps, and the auxiliary decoder outputs the auxiliary arm's relative pose in the primary arm's coordinate system. Moreover, we design a dynamic role assignment module to automatically map roles to left/right arms without manual pre-definition. This design facilitates inter-arm knowledge sharing and coordinated manipulation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our PA-BiCoop achieves superior performance: it outperforms state-of-the-art baselines by 48% on average in RLBench2 simulation tasks and by over 50% on average in real world tasks, thereby verifying its effectiveness and advancement in bimanual manipulation.

Learning Stable In-Grasp Manipulation in a Non-Dropping Action Space

在非掉落动作空间中学习稳定的抓取操控
Doan, Ha Thang Long, Arita, Hikaru, Nakashima, Kazuto, Tahara, Kenji
Abstract
Traditionally, dexterous manipulation controllers are designed using analytic models constrained by strong assumptions about the hand and the objects being manipulated. Reinforcement learning (RL) has become another common approach in which skills are explored openly in an end-to-end manner but is inefficient because of unnoticeable instability and conflicts in learning objectives. This paper attempts to efficiently explore stable and accurate manipulation skills by decomposing dexterous skills into multiple simpler/analyzable components. Each skill component is subsequently learned with constraints and guidance from classical physics and control theory. Our work shows that for stable grasp, in-grasp reposition/reorientation with different objects, sensor/motor noise, latency, and frictional conditions, skill learning becomes efficient and stable with prior knowledge from theory.

Unleashing Infinite Motion: Scaling Expressive Quadrupedal Motion via Generative Video Priors

释放无限运动:通过生成视频先验扩展表现力丰富的四足运动
Liu, Youzhi, Gao, Li, Qian, Yifei, Liu, Liu, Cai, Yang, Li, Ziqiao
Abstract
Quadruped robots have achieved remarkable locomotion, yet their behavioral repertoire remains confined to a few gaits--far from the expressive, companion-like presence long envisioned for them. Attempts to import the humanoid recipe of large-scale motion data have inherited one tacit assumption: that robot motion must first pass through an animal body, making data collection dependent on cooperative animals, reconstruction fragile across species, and retargeting ill-posed across incompatible morphologies. We propose Uni-Mo, a fully automated pipeline that removes the animal from the loop by reframing data scarcity as a generation problem: an LLM proposes motion prompts, a video diffusion model synthesizes the corresponding robot behaviors, and the generated videos are lifted into 3D reference trajectories used to train tracking policies deployed on a real Unitree Go2. To make naively-drifting generations reliably extractable, we introduce an Identity Consistency Loss that enforces appearance coherence across frames. We release Quad-Imaginarium at https://github.com/GaoLii/Quad-Imaginarium.git, the resulting open-source dataset of 7,488 language-annotated quadruped motions (18.5 hours) spanning acrobatic and performative behaviors.

四足机器人在运动能力上取得了显著的进展,但其行为范围仍然局限于少数几种步态,远未达到人们长期设想的表现力丰富、如同伴般的存在。尝试引入类人机器人大规模运动数据的做法,隐含着一个默默的假设:机器人运动必须首先通过动物身体,这使得数据收集依赖于合作动物,跨物种的重建变得脆弱,而在不兼容的形态上进行重定向则显得不适当。我们提出了Uni-Mo,一个完全自动化的流程,通过将数据稀缺重新框定为生成问题,消除了动物的参与:一个大型语言模型(LLM)提出运动提示,一个视频扩散模型合成相应的机器人行为,生成的视频被提升为用于训练在真实Unitree Go2上部署的跟踪策略的3D参考轨迹。为了使简单漂移的生成结果能够可靠提取,我们引入了一种身份一致性损失(Identity Consistency Loss),以强制实现帧间外观的一致性。我们在 https://github.com/GaoLii/Quad-Imaginarium.git 发布了Quad-Imaginarium,这是一个包含7488个语言注释的四足运动(18.5小时)的开源数据集,涵盖了杂技和表演行为。我们在真实的Unitree Go2上验证了392个随机采样的运动,部署成功率为96.7%,在整个数据集的模拟中成功率为97.6%。

Abstract
Training and evaluating robot policies in the real world is costly and difficult to scale. We introduce SimFoundry, a modular and automated system for zero-shot real-to-sim scene construction from a video. SimFoundry generates sim-ready digital twins and supports object, scene, and task editing, enabling the automated generation of diverse digital cousins: affordance-preserving variations of reconstructed real-world scenes. Policies trained on SimFoundry data transfer zero-shot to challenging real tasks involving multi-step manipulation, articulated object interaction, and bimanual interaction, and its digital cousins (variations of the original scene, objects, and tasks) facilitate generalization to new real-world conditions. Across 7 manipulation tasks and 5 policy architectures, SimFoundry simulation evaluations strongly predict real-world performance, with mean Pearson correlation 0.911 and mean maximum ranking violation 0.018. When evaluating sim-trained policies zero-shot in the real world, policies trained with object, scene, and task cousins in simulation show average task success rate improvements of 17%, 21%, and 40%, respectively.

CacheMPC: Certified Cached Model Predictive Control for Quadruped Locomotion

CacheMPC:四足运动的认证缓存模型预测控制
Khandelwal, Nimesh, Anand, Mehul, Gupta, Shakti S., Kothari, Mangal
Abstract
Model Predictive Control (MPC) is the standard predictive layer in hierarchical quadruped controllers, but the per-cycle QP solve limits the update rate achievable on embedded processors. Because legged gaits revisit a bounded region of state space, MPC solutions admit caching and reuse. This paper proposes \emph{Certified CacheMPC}: a Locality-Sensitive-Hashed cache of horizon contact-force trajectories, partitioned by contact mode, retrieved at query time and accepted only when an a-posteriori per-query certificate confirms primal feasibility and a Lagrangian dual-gap upper bound on cost suboptimality. A bounded-budget controller schedule combines top-$K$ certified retrieval, a deadline-bounded QP solve, and a shifted last-certified fallback. The framework is evaluated on a Unitree Go2 across $2{,}038$ usable cold-controller MuJoCo trials, including a $600$-trial $n\!=\!50$ campaign at three failure-boundary cells, and a first-deploy session on the on-robot NVIDIA Orin NX. The un-gated cache delivers a $25\times$ median solve-time speedup in simulation and an $18.7\times$ median speedup on hardware. At $n\!=\!50$ no statistically significant difference in closed-loop stable rate is detected between the cache variants and the no-cache baseline at any tested cell. The certificate's contribution to closed-loop safety is not resolvable at the present sample size.

WARP-RM: A Warp-Augmented Relative Progress Reward Model for Data Curation

WARP-RM:一种用于数据整理的扭曲增强相对进展奖励模型
Yu, Justin, Goldberg, Andrew, Kondap, Kavish, El-Refai, Karim, Ransing, Ethan, Chen, Qianzhong, Schwager, Mac, Shentu, Fred, Wu, Philipp, Goldberg, Ken
Abstract
Scaling imitation learning requires large datasets, yet human teleoperation inevitably produces mixed-quality demonstrations containing hesitations and recoveries. Prior frame-level progress reward models supervise on absolute temporal progress proxies that suffer from label noise, or require costly human annotations to define subtask boundaries. We present WARP (Warp-Augmented Relative Progress), a novel fully self-supervised algorithm for learning dense, signed relative progress magnitudes directly from successful demonstrations. WARP generates per-frame progress targets via time-warp augmentations of demonstrations (variable playback speeds and reversals) and we train WARP-RM to predict the normalized elapsed time between input frames. Aggregating these predictions across overlapping windows yields a dense frame-level progress signal. We then introduce WARP-BC, which leverages these scalar reward estimates to upweight high-advantage action chunks during behavior cloning, where chunk-level advantage is obtained by aggregating per-frame rewards. We evaluate our approach on a physical bimanual robot system performing a long-horizon deformable object manipulation task: folding T-shirts from a random crumpled start. To evaluate policy robustness against suboptimal data, we construct training datasets of varying quality using episode length as a proxy for teleoperation sub-optimality. As the dataset is widened to admit more inefficiencies, WARP-BC maintains a 19/20 success rate compared to vanilla BC's collapse to 2/20, improving throughput by up to 18x.

扩展模仿学习需要大量数据集,但人类遥控操作不可避免地产生混合质量的演示,其中包含犹豫和恢复。之前的帧级进展奖励模型依赖于绝对时间进展代理,这些代理受到标签噪声的影响,或者需要昂贵的人类注释来定义子任务边界。我们提出了WARP(扭曲增强相对进展),这是一种新颖的完全自我监督算法,旨在直接从成功演示中学习密集的、有符号的相对进展幅度。WARP通过对演示进行时间扭曲增强(可变播放速度和反转)生成每帧进展目标,并且我们训练WARP-RM以预测输入帧之间的标准化经过时间。通过在重叠窗口中聚合这些预测,产生密集的帧级进展信号。然后,我们引入WARP-BC,它利用这些标量奖励估计在行为克隆过程中对高优势动作块进行加权,其中块级优势是通过聚合每帧奖励获得的。我们在一个物理双手机器人系统上评估我们的方法,该系统执行一个长时间范围的可变形物体操作任务:从随机皱褶的起始状态折叠T恤。为了评估策略对次优数据的鲁棒性,我们构建了不同质量的训练数据集,使用剧集长度作为遥控次优性的代理。随着数据集的扩大以容纳更多低效,WARP-BC保持了19/20的成功率,而普通BC则崩溃至2/20,吞吐量提高了多达18倍。

DexCompose: Reusing Dexterous Policies for Multi-Task Manipulation with a Single Hand

DexCompose:利用灵巧策略在单手多任务操作中的重用
Huang, Dihong, Wei, Zhenyu, Xu, Zhuxiu, Yao, Yunchao, Li, Sikai, Ding, Mingyu
Abstract
Dexterous manipulation policies can solve individual skills, but composing them to perform multiple tasks with a single hand remains challenging. Adding a new task on top of an existing manipulation skill often imposes conflicting demands on overlapping fingers and contact modes, causing destructive interference between preserving an existing manipulation outcome and executing a new one. We propose DexCompose, a role-aware residual composition framework that reuses pretrained dexterous policies for multi-task manipulation through explicit finger-level action ownership. Given two pretrained full-hand policies, DexCompose first collects successful post-task states from the first skill and performs release tests over candidate finger masks to identify which fingers are necessary for maintaining the established skill state. It then trains two asymmetric residual modules: a bounded residual stabilizer for task preservation, and a context-aware residual that adapts the frozen downstream policy only within the action subspace assigned to the new task. We evaluate the framework on 16 composite dexterous manipulation tasks spanning four object-retention skills and four downstream interactions. DexCompose achieves a 77.4% average composite success rate, demonstrating that structural action ownership with dual residuals offers a promising direction for composing dexterous skills beyond conventional policy chaining.

灵巧操作策略能够解决单个技能,但将它们组合以使用单手执行多个任务仍然具有挑战性。在现有操作技能的基础上添加新任务往往会对重叠的手指和接触模式施加相互冲突的要求,从而导致在保持现有操作结果和执行新任务之间的破坏性干扰。我们提出了DexCompose,一种角色感知的残差组合框架,通过显式的手指级动作归属重用预训练的灵巧策略以实现多任务操作。给定两个预训练的全手策略,DexCompose首先从第一个技能中收集成功的后任务状态,并对候选手指掩码进行释放测试,以识别哪些手指对于维持已建立的技能状态是必要的。然后,它训练两个不对称的残差模块:一个用于任务保持的有界残差稳定器,以及一个上下文感知的残差,该残差仅在分配给新任务的动作子空间内调整冻结的下游策略。我们在涵盖四个物体保持技能和四个下游交互的16个复合灵巧操作任务上评估了该框架。DexCompose实现了77.4%的平均复合成功率,证明了具有双重残差的结构性动作归属为超越传统策略链的灵巧技能组合提供了一个有前景的方向。

Not All Relations Rotate Alike: Transformation-Aware Decoupling for Viewpoint-Robust 3D Scene Graph Generation

并非所有关系都以相同方式旋转:面向变换的解耦以实现视角鲁棒的三维场景图生成
Sun, Jingjun, Wang, Chaowei, Liu, Zhirui, Tian, Jiaxu, Yang, Ming, Wang, Yaoxing, Gao, Shan
Abstract
3D Scene Graph Generation (3DSGG) represents 3D scenes as structured object-relation-object graphs, providing a compact relational abstraction for spatial understanding. In embodied intelligence settings, the same 3D scene may be observed by agents from viewpoints that differ by yaw rotations. However, current 3DSGG models often fail to produce relation predictions that follow the expected transformation behavior under such viewpoint shifts. This behavior reveals an empirical mismatch related to predicate-level transformation heterogeneity: directional predicates such as left, front, right, and behind should transform with the observation frame, whereas most contact, support, and semantic predicates such as standing on and attached to should remain stable. To reduce this mismatch, we propose Transformation-Aware Decoupling (TAD), a viewpoint-robust 3DSGG framework that decouples relation reasoning according to predicate transformation behavior and is supported by viewpoint-stable object representations. TAD decomposes relation reasoning into two parts: one learns cues that should stay stable across viewpoints, while the other learns directional cues that should change with the observation frame. The two parts are merged for standard multi-label predicate prediction. Transformation-specific descriptors and group-aware auxiliary supervision encourage the two branches to capture complementary relation cues. Extensive experiments on 3DSSG show that TAD achieves state-of-the-art robustness under yaw viewpoint changes without training-time rotation augmentation, while maintaining competitive performance under the standard benchmark.

三维场景图生成(3DSGG)将三维场景表示为结构化的对象-关系-对象图,为空间理解提供了紧凑的关系抽象。在具身智能环境中,同一三维场景可能被代理从不同的视角观察,这些视角之间存在偏航旋转的差异。然而,目前的3DSGG模型往往无法在这种视角变化下产生符合预期变换行为的关系预测。这种行为揭示了与谓词级变换异质性相关的经验性不匹配:方向性谓词如左、前、右和后应随着观察框架而变换,而大多数接触、支持和语义谓词如站立在和附着于则应保持稳定。为了减少这种不匹配,我们提出了面向变换的解耦(Transformation-Aware Decoupling, TAD),这是一个视角鲁棒的3DSGG框架,根据谓词变换行为解耦关系推理,并由视角稳定的对象表示支持。TAD将关系推理分解为两个部分:一个学习在不同视角下应保持稳定的线索,另一个学习应随观察框架变化的方向性线索。这两个部分合并用于标准的多标签谓词预测。特定于变换的描述符和群体感知的辅助监督鼓励这两个分支捕捉互补的关系线索。在3DSSG上的大量实验表明,TAD在偏航视角变化下实现了最先进的鲁棒性,而无需在训练时进行旋转增强,同时在标准基准测试中保持了竞争力的性能。项目页面可访问 https://tad-predicate.github.io/。

SemCityLoc: Aerial 6DoF Localization Using Semantic 3D City Models

SemCityLoc:基于语义3D城市模型的空中6自由度定位
Mao, Jingfeng, Chen, Xuyang, Zhang, Qilin, Dhaouadi, Oussema, Wang, Guangming, Sheil, Brian, Cremers, Daniel, Xia, Yan, Wysocki, Olaf
Abstract
Aerial 6DoF localization typically relies on precise GNSS signals or radiometrically rich 3D reconstructions, limiting scalability and on-board deployment. We propose SemCityLoc, a semantic-geometric alignment system that reframes aerial pose estimation as structured surface registration between foundation-model-derived visual priors and standardized LoD-compliant 3D city models. Instead of matching sparse contours or dense texture, our method aligns semantic surfaces and monocular depth with lightweight semantic 3D building models, increasing pose discriminability in repetitive and occluded urban environments. To enable accurate evaluation, we introduce SemCityLockeD, the first real-world benchmark combining centimeter-accurate UAV poses with standardized LoD1--LoD3 semantic city models and challenging low-altitude imagery. Experiments demonstrate substantial improvements over existing map-based approaches, improving recall by up to 36% and reducing mean positional error from 9.89m to 2.62m in challenging urban canyons. Our results indicate that semantically structured geometry provides sufficient and scalable constraints for high-precision aerial localization without radiometric scene reconstructions.

Abstract
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) affects 1 in 31 US children, yet median age at diagnosis exceeds four years. Artificial intelligence pipelines that provide quantified diagnosis using easy to access observational data (e.g., home videos) could help with earlier diagnosis, and timely delivery of early treatments. We fine-tuned Gemini 2.5 Pro on 400 clinician-rated home videos with low-rank adaptation, training only on 30 behavioral features previously validated to produce reliable predictions when passed to various ML models. On 99 held-out children (49 ASD, 50 neurotypical), inter-rater reliability with clinicians (per-feature weighted Cohen's kappa) improved by 40% (p<0.001), with 27 of 28 evaluable features improving. As an emergent zero-shot capability, direct ASD diagnosis F1 improved by 53% (p<0.001), matching or exceeding clinician outcomes. Classifier-assisted pipelines using fine-tuned LLM-derived behavioral features matched clinician-scored inputs across all tested pathways and achieved 77% accuracy (95% CI: 68-85%) and an AUC of 86% (95% CI: 78-92%). Fine-tuned multimodal LLMs can serve as scalable behavioral feature extractors for use in autism assessment and diagnosis.

SelectAnyTree: A Promptable Instance Segmentation Model for 3D Forest LiDAR Point Clouds

SelectAnyTree:一种可提示的3D森林LiDAR点云实例分割模型

Abstract
Automated instance segmentation of forest LiDAR point clouds is increasingly critical as forest monitoring moves toward scalable, detailed, 3D measurement. Yet, progress is constrained by label scarcity for tree instances; a single hectare can hold millions of points and hundreds of overlapping, complex crowns, making manual annotation from scratch with raw data laborious and error-prone. Annotations are often corrected from automatic pre-segmentations, but remain costly as these provide no interactive or AI-assisted refinement. Inspired by the promptable paradigm of foundation segmentation models, we propose SelectAnyTree, a promptable instance segmentation model that delineates any individual tree in a 3D forest point cloud from a few clicks. It introduces two key components: Click-to-query prompt encoder and Canopy Height Model (CHM)-guided first prompt. The former turns each click into a single content query, encoding its 3D position and positive/negative polarity together with a pooled local backbone feature. The latter provides treetops as a geometry- and ecologically guided first prompt without any user input. The resulting prompt query is then decoded into one tree mask by a state-space query decoder to efficiently capture long-range context in large-scale forest scenes with linear-time complexity. We evaluate SelectAnyTree in interactive and instance-level settings across seven diverse forest regions and an independent held-out test dataset, demonstrating strong generalization beyond the training domains. It segments a target tree to 78.2 Intersection over Union (IoU) from a single click, 24.8 points above the strongest promptable baseline, and reaches every accuracy target with the fewest clicks, while using far fewer parameters and less inference time than prior promptable models.

随着森林监测向可扩展、详细的3D测量发展,森林LiDAR点云的自动实例分割变得愈发重要。然而,树木实例的标签稀缺限制了这一进展;单公顷土地上可能包含数百万个点和数百个重叠的复杂树冠,使得从原始数据手动标注变得繁琐且容易出错。注释通常是从自动预分割中纠正的,但由于这些方法没有提供交互式或AI辅助的细化,成本依然高昂。受到基础分割模型的可提示范式的启发,我们提出了SelectAnyTree,这是一种可提示的实例分割模型,可以通过少量点击在3D森林点云中勾勒出任何单独的树木。该模型引入了两个关键组件:点击查询提示编码器和冠层高度模型(Canopy Height Model, CHM)引导的首个提示。前者将每次点击转换为一个单一的内容查询,编码其3D位置和正/负极性,以及一个汇聚的局部主干特征。后者在没有任何用户输入的情况下提供树顶作为几何和生态引导的首个提示。生成的提示查询随后通过状态空间查询解码器解码为一个树木掩膜,以高效捕捉大规模森林场景中的长距离上下文,且具有线性时间复杂度。我们在七个不同的森林区域和一个独立的保留测试数据集上评估了SelectAnyTree在交互式和实例级设置中的表现,展示了其在训练领域之外的强泛化能力。它在单次点击下将目标树的交并比(Intersection over Union, IoU)分割到78.2,超出最强可提示基线24.8个点,并以最少的点击次数达到每个准确性目标,同时使用的参数更少,推理时间也比之前的可提示模型更短。源代码可在https://github.com/thanhhff/SelectAnyTree获取。

DMV-Bench: Diagnosing Long-Horizon Multimodal Agents' Visual Memory with Incidental Cue Injection

DMV-Bench:通过偶然线索注入诊断长时间跨度的多模态智能体视觉记忆
Tang, Yujin, Shang, Chenming, Xu, Ruize, Singh, Nikhil
Abstract
Research on agent memory has matured rapidly, but almost entirely on the text side: few existing benchmarks ask, in an interactive environment, when an agent genuinely needs to remember what it saw rather than what it could write down. We introduce DMV-Bench (Code: https://github.com/yyyujintang/DMV-Bench), the first interactive benchmark for multimodal-agent visual memory. DMV-Bench is built on a controlled home-furnishing e-commerce catalogue of 1,000 product variants in which a text-leakage contract keeps the discriminative signal of each task in the pixels alone. Across a chain of autonomous shopping sessions, every visited product image carries a unique, pre-rendered incidental cue, and the agent is later asked to recall a particular cued product and navigate to its URL. Inspired by dual-coding theory, we propose DualMem, a memory architecture that maintains a visual and a verbal code in parallel. On DMV-Bench, DualMem outperforms a caption baseline and three recent multimodal agent-memory systems at every chain length J in {5, 10, 15, 50} on both Gemini 2.5 Flash and Qwen2.5-VL-7B, with the lead surviving controls for memory-bank size and encoding-position bias, and an asymmetric dual-coding regime in which vision carries the cue end-to-end while the verbal channel plays a smaller query-grounding role.

Aloe-Vision: Robust Vision-Language Models for Healthcare

Aloe-Vision:面向医疗保健的稳健视觉-语言模型
Guasch-Martí, Jaume, Lopez-Cuena, Enrique, Suárez-Fernández, Martín, Bayarri-Planas, Jordi, Arias-Duart, Anna, Garcia-Gasulla, Dario
Abstract
Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) specialized in healthcare are emerging as a promising research direction due to their potential impact in clinical and biomedical applications. However, progress is constrained by the scarcity of high-quality medical multimodal data, concerns about robustness in safety-critical settings, and the narrow and potentially contaminated evaluation benchmarks that limit reliable assessment. To address these issues, the field requires state-of-the-art solutions to be fully open and reproducible systems in which all components can be inspected, evaluated, and improved. This work introduces Aloe-Vision-Data, a large-scale, quality-filtered mixture which integrates both medical and general domains across multimodal and text-only sources, designed for direct use in model fine-tuning. Building on this dataset, we train the Aloe-Vision family of medical LVLMs, openly released with full weights, training recipes and data, in two scales (7B and 72B). Through comprehensive benchmarking, we demonstrate that high quality training mixtures produce balanced LVLMs which yield significant gains over the baseline models without compromising general capabilities, achieving competitive performance with respect to state-of-the-art alternatives. To support reliable evaluation, we introduce CareQA-Vision, a carefully curated vision benchmark derived from MIR and EIR exams, the residency entrance exams for medical and nursing specialists in Spain, offering novel vision questions with low likelihood of contamination. Finally, we show that current LVLMs remain vulnerable to adversarial and misleading inputs, underscoring reliability challenges in clinical contexts.

ReWorld: Learning Better Representations for World Action Models

ReWorld:为世界行动模型学习更好的表征
Xia, Tianze, Zhou, Lijun, Xiong, Kaixin, Yao, Jingfeng, Zhu, Yu, Zhu, Zhenxin, Wang, Bing, Chen, Guang, Ye, Hangjun, Liu, Wenyu, Sun, Haiyang, Wang, Xinggang
Abstract
World Action Models (WAMs) model future environment evolution under action conditioning, offering a scalable paradigm for autonomous driving. However, existing approaches focus largely on model architecture design, and how a WAM can efficiently learn better world representations for planning remains underexplored. To address this gap, we propose ReWorld, the first representation learning framework specifically designed for autonomous-driving world action models. In WAMs, standard training supervises only the output ends of the generation and planning modules, leaving the intermediate representations that carry world knowledge to be shaped only indirectly, as byproducts of fitting these outputs. The core idea of ReWorld is to treat intermediate representations as direct targets of optimization, shaping them along three complementary dimensions. On the Video DiT responsible for generation, we impose future-predictive supervision on its intermediate representations. On the Action DiT responsible for planning, we first align its intermediate representations cross-modally with the video world representation, then further shape them to be discriminative around safety-critical boundaries via hard-negative supervision. In addition, we systematically analyze the effectiveness of existing representation learning methods in video generation world models, and discuss why their performance is limited on this task. Experiments on nuScenes and NAVSIM show that ReWorld improves fine-tuned video generation by 23.9% in FVD (81.3 to 61.9), raises closed-loop PDMS from 89.1 to 90.4 without any post-training such as RL or post-processing, and accelerates from-scratch convergence by approximately 2x.

世界行动模型(WAMs)在行动条件下模拟未来环境演变,为自动驾驶提供了一种可扩展的范式。然而,现有的方法主要集中在模型架构设计上,而WAM如何有效学习更好的世界表征以进行规划仍然未被充分探索。为了解决这一问题,我们提出了ReWorld,这是第一个专门为自动驾驶世界行动模型设计的表征学习框架。在WAM中,标准训练仅对生成和规划模块的输出端进行监督,导致承载世界知识的中间表征仅通过适应这些输出的副产品间接形成。ReWorld的核心思想是将中间表征视为优化的直接目标,从三个互补维度对其进行塑造。在负责生成的Video DiT上,我们对其中间表征施加未来预测监督。在负责规划的Action DiT上,我们首先将其中间表征与视频世界表征进行跨模态对齐,然后通过困难负样本监督进一步塑造它们,使其在安全关键边界附近具有区分性。此外,我们系统地分析了现有表征学习方法在视频生成世界模型中的有效性,并讨论了其在该任务上表现受限的原因。在nuScenes和NAVSIM上的实验表明,ReWorld在FVD上提高了微调视频生成的性能,提升幅度达到23.9%(从81.3降至61.9),将闭环PDMS从89.1提高到90.4,而无需任何后训练(如强化学习或后处理),并将从头收敛的速度加快了约2倍。

TruEye: Fine-Grained Detection of AI-Generated Human Subjects in Images

TruEye:对图像中AI生成的人物进行细粒度检测
Barot, Jay, Lin, Dan
Abstract
AI generated images are proliferating across the Internet. While some are used for entertainment, others are weaponized for fraud and social engineering attacks on social media users. Existing detectors overfit to generators seen during training, treat detection as opaque binary classification, or rely on costly Large Language Models (LLMs) to explain their outputs. In this paper, we present TruEye, a novel model for fine grained detection and localization of AI manipulated or AI generated humans and scenes. Unlike conventional detectors that assign a single authenticity label, TruEye is the first to distinguish among five compositional categories of synthetic content, including the most challenging case in which a real human is composited into a real scene where they were never physically present. At its core is a mask conditioned dual stream transformer that separates human and scene tokens while preserving patch level spatial correspondence. Specialized reasoning within each stream and region gated cross attention enforce semantic coherence between subject and background, while token level supervision and global compositional classification yield robust, interpretable predictions without invoking an LLM. By restricting intra stream attention to semantically coherent tokens, TruEye also runs over $100\times$ faster than LLM based competitors. Experiments on 6 datasets and our newly curated FineSyn dataset, show that TruEye surpasses state of the art detectors with higher accuracy, faster inference, and stronger generalization to unseen AI generated or manipulated images.

AI生成的图像在互联网上迅速传播。虽然有些图像用于娱乐,但另一些则被用于社交媒体用户的欺诈和社会工程攻击。现有的检测器往往过拟合于训练中看到的生成器,将检测视为不透明的二元分类,或依赖于昂贵的大型语言模型(LLMs)来解释其输出。在本文中,我们提出了TruEye,这是一种新颖的模型,用于对AI操控或AI生成的人物和场景进行细粒度检测和定位。与传统检测器仅分配单一真实性标签不同,TruEye首次区分五种合成内容的组成类别,包括最具挑战性的情况,即真实人类被合成到他们从未实际存在的真实场景中。其核心是一个掩码条件的双流变换器,能够在保持补丁级空间对应性的同时分离人类和场景标记。每个流和区域门控交叉注意力中的专业推理强化了主体和背景之间的语义一致性,而标记级监督和全局组合分类则在不调用LLM的情况下产生稳健、可解释的预测。通过将流内注意力限制在语义一致的标记上,TruEye的运行速度比基于LLM的竞争对手快超过100倍。在6个数据集和我们新创建的FineSyn数据集上的实验表明,TruEye在准确性、更快的推理速度和对未见AI生成或操控图像的更强泛化能力方面超越了最先进的检测器。

Structured-Li-GS: Structured 3D Gaussians Splatting with LiDAR Incorporation and Spatial Constraints

结构化-Li-GS:结合LiDAR和空间约束的结构化3D高斯点云渲染
Weng, Huaiyuan, Li, Huibin, Yeum, Chul Min
Abstract
In this study, we develop a Structured framework for Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) with LiDAR integration (Structured-Li-GS). It is a lightweight Gaussian Splatting pipeline that leverages LiDAR-inertial-visual SLAM. Structured-Li-GS achieves high-quality 3D reconstructions with fewer Gaussians by training on accurate, dense, colorized point clouds. Gaussian primitives are anchored using sub-sampled point clouds, and their ellipsoidal parameters are initialized from local surface geometry. Our training strategy integrates a comprehensive set of loss terms, including photometric, flattening, offset, depth, and normal losses, guided by the dense point cloud, enabling accurate reconstruction without Gaussian densification. This approach produces up-to-scale, high-fidelity results with a moderate model size. For experimental validation, we develop a custom hardware-synchronized LiDAR-camera handheld scanner. Experiments on both benchmark datasets and our real-world in-house dataset demonstrate that Structured-Li-GS surpasses state-of-the-art methods while using fewer Gaussians.

Tessellating The Earth

地球的镶嵌
Cher, Daniel, Iqbal, Hamza, Xing, Eric, Wei, Brian, Jacobs, Nathan
Abstract
Geolocation encoders, which map geographic coordinates to learned representations, are emerging as an effective means of capturing visual and non-visual characteristics from a latitude-longitude pair alone. However, existing approaches project coordinates onto fixed bases (e.g., spherical harmonics), allocating representational capacity uniformly and devoting equal resources to the open ocean and to a developing city. We introduce Tessellating the Earth (TTE), a location encoder built from learnable Spherical Voronoi partitions that concentrates representational capacity where it is needed in a fully differentiable, end-to-end manner. Each Voronoi site carries its own embedding and migrates during training toward discriminative areas. To bridge the gap between local spatial structure and global semantic understanding, we introduce \emph{global semantic tokens}: a set of shared learnable concept tokens that distill semantic knowledge from the satellite imagery into a compact vocabulary the location encoder can reference at inference, enabling geographically distant sites covering similar environments to share semantics. TTE sets a new state of the art for location encoders across a suite of geospatial classification and regression tasks, and achieves the strongest results when used as a geographic prior for fine-grained species classification on iNaturalist-2018. Code, and weights are available at https://github.com/mvrl/TTE.

Large Language Model Teaches Visual Students: Cross-Modality Transfer of Fine-Grained Conceptual Knowledge

大型语言模型教视觉学生:细粒度概念知识的跨模态迁移
Liang, Thomas Shih-Chao, Yu, Zhuoran, Lee, Yong Jae
Abstract
Large Language Models (LLMs) possess broad conceptual knowledge acquired through large-scale text pretraining, yet their potential to supervise models in other modalities remains underexplored. In this work, we propose LaViD--Language-to-Visual Knowledge Distillation--a simple and effective framework for transferring high-level semantic knowledge from a language-only teacher to a vision-only student model. Instead of relying on paired multimodal data, LaViD elicits conceptual signals from an LLM by prompting it to generate multiple-choice questions (MCQs) that probe semantic distinctions between visual classes. Each class is mapped to a soft label distribution over these MCQs, forming a rich conceptual signature that guides the student through an auxiliary distillation loss. Notably, despite using a language-only teacher without access to image data, LaViD consistently outperforms recent methods like MaKD that distill from vision-language models across multiple fine-grained benchmarks. It also achieves competitive or superior performance compared to state-of-the-art visual distillation methods such as DKD and MLKD, with further gains when combined with logit standardization. On the Waterbirds dataset, LaViD substantially improves worst-group accuracy, demonstrating enhanced robustness to spurious correlations with distillation.

Abstract
Video generation models aspire to simulate dynamic environments, and several benchmarks now evaluate memory consistency across frames. However, most assess consistency only while the target remains in view, and the few that force objects out of view evaluate static scenes where nothing changes during occlusion. To bridge this gap, we introduce MemoBench, a diagnostic benchmark built around the disappear-and-reappear paradigm in dynamically changing environments: a target object undergoes a physical process, disappears from view, and must be correctly recovered in its updated state upon reappearance. We curate 360 ground-truth clips spanning synthetic and real-world scenes, and design an evaluation suite combining automated metrics with VQA-based assessment across four diagnostic pillars. Evaluation of eight state-of-the-art models reveals key insights and open challenges regarding memory consistency under the disappear-and-reappear paradigm.

Beyond MoCap: Scaling Motion Tokenizers with Synthetic Human Motion for Generative Modeling

超越动作捕捉:利用合成人体运动扩展运动标记器以进行生成建模
Yan, Yiwen, He, Wanning, Tai, Yu-Wing
Abstract
Human motion generation models are fundamentally constrained by the limited diversity of motion capture datasets, which predominantly contain common, repetitive actions and fail to cover the long tail of complex human movements, resulting in a restricted motion vocabulary in learned latent representations and poor generalization to rare, compositional, and highly dynamic motions. In this work, we propose a framework for expanding the motion representation space by leveraging large-scale synthetic human motion, introducing a data generation pipeline that produces diverse, physically plausible motion sequences beyond the distribution of existing datasets and integrating it with a redesigned VQ-VAE tokenizer that adapts to this expanded motion space. Unlike conventional tokenizers trained on narrow data distributions, our approach jointly scales both the training distribution and the discrete codebook, enabling the model to capture a significantly richer set of motion primitives. We demonstrate that training with synthetic motion substantially improves the coverage and compositionality of the learned motion vocabulary, leading to consistent gains across motion generation tasks such as text-to-motion and motion continuation, while remaining fully compatible with existing frameworks including MotionGPT. Our results suggest that the primary bottleneck lies in the limited support of the learned motion representation, rather than model architecture alone. Scaling synthetic motion in tandem with representation learning offers a principled path toward more expressive, controllable, and generalizable human motion synthesis.

Understanding Cross-Rig Generalization in Automotive Perception: a Multi-Rig Benchmark and Rig Variation Metrics

理解汽车感知中的跨设备泛化:多设备基准测试与设备变异度量
Bader, Tim Alexander, Eberhardt, Tim Dieter, Dillitzer, Maximilian, Stork, Wilhelm
Abstract
Camera-based perception systems for autonomous driving are typically developed and evaluated using fixed sensor rigs, while real-world vehicle fleets exhibit substantial variation in camera placement, orientation, field of view, and camera count. This mismatch introduces a cross-rig domain gap in which only the geometric observation process changes. To study this effect under controlled conditions, we introduce Plentiful CARLA Camera Rigs, a benchmark that renders identical driving scenes under 14 systematically designed camera rigs. This setup enables direct analysis of cross-rig generalization without confounding changes in scene content or appearance. Using the benchmark, we analyze cross-rig transfer behavior of representative multi-view perception architectures and observe substantial performance shifts induced by geometric rig variation. To facilitate structured analysis, we further introduce two calibration-based descriptors derived from rig metadata: Rig Variance, capturing internal rig diversity, and Rig Contrastive Distance, measuring geometric discrepancy between rigs. Our experiments show that geometric rig differences strongly correlate with relative cross-rig performance shifts and that Rig Contrastive Distance provides a reliable proxy for ranking transfer difficulty between sensor rigs.

Radar Guided Camera Verification for Automatic Emergency Braking Rethinking Object Detection in Radar Camera Fusion

雷达引导的摄像头验证用于自动紧急制动:重新思考雷达摄像头融合中的目标检测
Akula, Ram Charan, Kandhasamy, Sivanathan, Ganesan, Manikandan
Abstract
Radar camera fusion is widely used in Automatic Emergency Braking AEB systems because radar provides reliable range and velocity measurements while cameras provide a proper visual confirmation of the objects . Most of the deployed systems perform this confirmation using computationally intensive object detectors. However, if the radar has already localized a target, the camera may only need to verify the obstacles presence rather than solving a full problem by identifying the object. Our work proposes a radar scoped edge density gate that performs obstacle verification within radar guided image regions of interest. This method requires no training data, model weights, or GPU acceleration and was integrated into a complete radar camera fusion AEB system with brake by wire actuation. Evaluated on a real instrumented vehicle across 72 driving sessions and 131,603 camera frames, the proposed approach reduced the camera search space by up to 98.7 percentage, achieved a mean processing latency of 0.121 ms per ROI, an AUC of 0.898, and a recall of 0.994. Across 33 staged threat scenarios, the complete AEB system recorded zero missed brake events.

Perceptual 3D Simulation With Physical World Modeling

具有物理世界建模的感知3D模拟
Lee, Wanhee, Kotar, Klemen, Venkatesh, Rahul Mysore, Watrous, Jared, Yamins, Daniel L. K.
Abstract
Predicting how a scene will evolve after a desired 3D transformation from images is a central goal in vision, graphics, and robotics. Yet unlike ideal simulators with full access to 3D geometry and dynamics, real world systems must rely on perceptual inputs and local actions that are inherently partial and incomplete. In this work, we present P3Sim, a physical world modeling system that simulates future scene states under both partial observations and incomplete 3D transformation signals. P3Sim is composed of three interacting components: a learned physical world model, a geometric conditioning module, and a persistent scene memory. The world model interprets perception as probabilistic inference over multimodal scene variables, providing predictions of the distributions of any scene variable conditioned on any combination of others. The geometric conditioning module provides a partial 3D transform signal for conditioning the world model at inference time. The persistent scene memory integrates predictions over time, enabling online updates and consistency under uncertainty. By combining learned inference with explicit geometric structure, P3Sim balances data-driven flexibility with built-in inductive bias. This design yields a flexible perceptual simulator that generalizes across diverse 3D transformation tasks, such as novel view synthesis, object manipulation, and dynamic scene prediction, advancing toward general purpose 3D scene understanding and transformation.

DeLux: Cross-Modal Local Artifact Restoration in Video Using Neuromorphic Data

DeLux:基于神经形态数据的视频跨模态局部伪影恢复
Stachowiak, Bartosz, Brzezinski, Dariusz
Abstract
Conventional RGB cameras suffer from lighting artifacts such as flare, glare, flicker, and overexposure, leading to irrecoverable information loss that necessitates computational restoration. However, existing approaches treat these problems in isolation, failing to recover structural details completely obscured by complex spatially discrete image degradations. In this paper, we propose a novel cross-modal restoration paradigm and present DeLux, a modular proof-of-concept pipeline that leverages neuromorphic event streams as a structural prior to guide the targeted detection and inpainting of lighting artifacts in RGB video. Validation on synthetic benchmarks and real-world automotive footage demonstrates that DeLux effectively suppresses local artifacts and restores affected regions. The proposed approach outperforms existing RGB-only baselines and event-guided HDR models, achieving an average MS-SSIM of over 0.99 across all artifact types and demonstrating up to an 88% reduction in artifact severity in real-world automotive footage. The synthetic artifact generation tools and curated real-world evaluation datasets are made publicly available to foster future research on cross-modal restoration.

Distribution-based deep multiple instance learning for tumor proportion scoring in NSCLC

基于分布的深度多实例学习在非小细胞肺癌肿瘤比例评分中的应用
Pysz, Krzysztof, Bartczak, Artur, Kwiecień, Jarosław, Krajewski, Piotr, Dyrka, Witold
Abstract
Accurate assessment of tumor proportion score (TPS) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is critical for treatment planning and prognosis. Key challenges include the tedious manual work required to annotate each slide, combined with the limited number of experts certified for this task. Multiple instance learning (MIL) has proven to be an effective approach for predicting TPS scores at the slide level; however, existing methods struggle with non-expressive (zero class) images. Our approach involves two models: (1) an embedding-extraction and multiclass-classification network that captures the histopathological features of individual patches, and (2) a MIL model that aggregates these embeddings to predict zero-inflated beta (ZIBeta) parameters representing the overall TPS probability distribution for the entire slide. Using only slide-level TPS scores as labels, we demonstrate how this end-to-end framework can leverage a novel distribution-based architecture to improve prediction accuracy and explainability. ZIBeta modeling significantly outperforms baseline linear and ridge regression while capturing expected accuracy through distribution concentration.

Beyond Points: Spherical Distributional Part Prototypes for Interpretable Classification

超越点:用于可解释分类的球面分布式部分原型
Leão, Duarte, Araújo, Diogo Pereira, Barata, Catarina, Santiago, Carlos
Abstract
Prototype-based neural networks aim to provide intrinsic interpretability by grounding predictions in a small set of part prototypes. However, modern vision backbones typically operate in normalized, directional embedding spaces where each semantic part exhibits substantial intra-class variability. As a result, point prototypes often become redundant or unstable, hurting both explanation quality and robustness. We propose vMFProto, a distributional part-prototype framework that models each class as a mixture of von Mises-Fisher components on the hypersphere. Each prototype learns its own concentration, capturing part-specific variability, and we use entropic optimal transport (OT) to obtain structured patch-to-prototype assignments. A two-stage training schedule performs OT-driven prototype discovery followed by end-to-end refinement with patch-level distillation and distribution-aware diversity regularization. Experiments on CUB-200-2011, Stanford Dogs, and Stanford Cars with frozen DINO backbones show that vMFProto achieves state-of-the-art explanation quality (consistency, stability, and distinctiveness) with competitive accuracy. Qualitative results confirm that vMFProto yields localized, non-redundant part evidence.

CoIn: Comprehensive 2D-3D Inpainting with Gaussian Splatting Guidance

CoIn:基于高斯溅射引导的综合性2D-3D修复
Kim, Hana, Kim, Minje, Kim, Tae-Kyun
Abstract
3D scene inpainting is essential for reconstructing areas corrupted by occlusions or limited viewpoints. While recent methods leverage Gaussian Splatting (GS) for efficient 3D editing, they often depend on precise multi-view segmentation masks and are inherently constrained to object removal tasks. We propose CoIn, a novel framework that bridges 2D inpainting models and 3DGS through a multi-stage consistency pipeline. Our approach first generates initial inpainted images using a diffusion model, enabling the use of arbitrary-shaped masks and diverse tasks like object insertion. We then introduce Reference Adaptive GS with Feature Attention to reconstruct a coarse 3D scene by adaptively weighing towards a reference view (2D -> 3D). This 3D representation provides geometric guidance to the diffusion process via GS-based Reference Feature Warping, ensuring multi-view consistency (3D -> 2D). Finally, a Texture-Enhancing Discriminator refines the 3D scene to achieve high photometric realism (2D -> 3D).

3D场景修复对于重建因遮挡或视角限制而受损的区域至关重要。尽管近期的方法利用高斯溅射(Gaussian Splatting, GS)进行高效的3D编辑,但它们通常依赖于精确的多视图分割掩膜,并且本质上仅限于物体移除任务。我们提出了CoIn,一个新颖的框架,通过多阶段一致性管道将2D修复模型与3D GS连接起来。我们的方法首先使用扩散模型生成初始修复图像,使得可以使用任意形状的掩膜以及执行诸如物体插入等多样化任务。接着,我们引入了具有特征注意力的参考自适应GS,通过自适应地加权参考视图(2D -> 3D)来重建粗略的3D场景。该3D表示通过基于GS的参考特征变形为扩散过程提供几何指导,确保多视图一致性(3D -> 2D)。最后,纹理增强判别器对3D场景进行细化,以实现高光度真实感(2D -> 3D)。实验表明,CoIn有效利用双向信息流,达到了最先进的性能,并有效处理物体移除和物体插入任务,同时支持灵活的掩膜输入。

Dismantling Pathological Shortcuts: A Causal Framework for Faithful LVLM Decoding

拆解病态捷径:忠实LVLM解码的因果框架
Yu, Liu, Chen, Can, Kuang, Ping, Feng, Zhikun, Zhou, Fan, Dobbie, Gillian
Abstract
Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) exhibit sophisticated reasoning but remain susceptible to object hallucination. Deviating from the prevailing attention intensity assumption, we reveal a deeper dynamic structural misalignment: hallucination is triggered at decision-critical steps where specific attention heads, acting as risky mediators, decouple from visual evidence to lock onto language priors. This establishes a pathological shortcut that bypasses visual grounding. To dismantle this, we propose Fox (Faithfulness and Observational-flow via eXpression-rectification), a training-free inference-time framework. Fox diagnoses structural misalignment using a visual attention entropy probe to localize risky mediators unsupervisedly. We then execute a targeted causal intervention via numerical logit saturation to physically sever the shortcut path. Finally, a conflict-gated cooperative decoding strategy reconciles interventional faithfulness with observational fluency. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Fox achieves SOTA performance, outperforming SID by 29.1% while preserving linguistic richness. Code is available at https://github.com/Cc2021start/Fox.

大型视觉语言模型(LVLMs)展现出复杂的推理能力,但仍然容易受到对象幻觉的影响。我们偏离了当前主流的注意力强度假设,揭示了一种更深层次的动态结构不一致性:幻觉在决策关键步骤被触发,此时特定的注意力头作为风险中介,从视觉证据中解耦,转而锁定语言先验。这建立了一条绕过视觉基础的病态捷径。为了解构这一现象,我们提出了Fox(通过表达修正实现的忠实性和观察流),这是一个无训练的推理时框架。Fox利用视觉注意力熵探测器诊断结构不一致性,以无监督的方式定位风险中介。然后,我们通过数值对数饱和执行有针对性的因果干预,以物理上切断捷径路径。最后,冲突门控合作解码策略调和了干预的忠实性与观察的流畅性。大量实验表明,Fox在性能上达到了最先进水平(SOTA),比SID提高了29.1%,同时保持了语言的丰富性。代码可在 https://github.com/Cc2021start/Fox 获取。

Abstract
We present Qwen-Image-2.0-RL, a post-training pipeline that applies reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) and on-policy distillation (OPD) to improve both the visual quality and instruction-following capability of the Qwen-Image-2.0 diffusion model. To provide reliable reward signals, we construct task-specific composite reward models by fine-tuning vision-language models with a pointwise scoring paradigm and chain-of-thought reasoning. For text-to-image generation, the reward models cover alignment, aesthetics, and portrait fidelity dimensions. For image editing tasks, the reward system addresses instruction-following accuracy and face identity preservation. Building on this reward system, we develop a scalable GRPO-based RL training framework, incorporating a hybrid classifier-free guidance (CFG) strategy to preserve pre-trained knowledge, prompt curation via intra-group reward range filtering, and per-category reward weight calibration. To merge the task-specialized RL policies for T2I and editing, we propose on-policy distillation as the final training stage, which consolidates multiple teachers into a single student model through trajectory-level velocity matching. Extensive evaluation shows that Qwen-Image-2.0-RL achieves 57.84 overall score on Qwen-Image-Bench (+2.61 over the base model), Elo ratings of 1193 in text-to-image arena (+78) and 1349 in image edit arena (+93), demonstrating consistent gains in aesthetic quality, prompt adherence, and editing accuracy.

Denoising ICF Images with Multiplicative Uniform Noise: A Self-Supervised Study Based on the Log-Domain Noisier2Inverse Framework

使用乘法均匀噪声去噪ICF图像:基于对数域Noisier2Inverse框架的自监督研究
Hwang, Gyeongha, Wolfe, Bradley Thomas, Naheed, Naima
Abstract
This paper documents the implementation and evaluation of a self-supervised denoising framework on Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) images corrupted by Multiplicative Uniform noise: the \emph{Log-Domain Noisier2Inverse} framework. This framework is developed and analysed in this work; the key theoretical result -- that minimising the log-domain self-supervised loss is equivalent to supervised learning in the transformed domain -- is presented with full proof. We document significant implementation challenges arising from the unique characteristics of ICF imagery, describe the fixes applied at each stage, and report final quantitative results. The log-domain approach with per-image JSON Uniform noise loading (Variant~B) achieves the best result: a mean PSNR of $21.41\db$ and SSIM of $0.8358$, a $+19.46\db$ improvement over the noisy input baseline of $1.95\db$, substantially outperforming BM3D log-domain ($4.47\db$, SSIM $0.5181$) and Noise2Self ($4.75\db$, SSIM $0.0177$). Variant~A, using fixed Gaussian noise loading, achieves $21.39\db$ PSNR and SSIM $0.8436$. Of the three evaluated methods, Log-Domain Noisier2Inverse and Noise2Self are entirely self-supervised during training, requiring no clean ground truth data; BM3D is a classical filter-based method requiring no training at all. The clean reference images are used solely for quantitative evaluation of all three methods.

CascadeOcc: Rethinking 3D Occupancy World Models with Cascaded VQ Representations

CascadeOcc:重新思考具有级联向量量化表示的 3D 占用世界模型
Hwang, Kyumin, Choi, Wonhyeok, Kim, Jaeyeul, Park, Jihun, Park, Daehee, Im, Sunghoon
Abstract
This letter proposes CascadeOcc, a novel occupancy world model that prioritizes intrinsic structural hierarchy over extrinsic auxiliary modalities for autonomous driving. Occupancy world models -- forecasting the future driving environment and planning the driving trajectory -- effectively bridge perception and planning, but current approaches often heavily rely on external modalities or large language models, failing to fully exploit the inherent structural potential of occupancy representations themselves. To enhance representational capacity for complex 3D scenes, we integrate a cascaded Vector Quantized (VQ) mechanism into an autoregressive framework. Following a coarse-to-fine principle, CascadeOcc progressively refines fine-grained details from global structures through a multi-scale architecture. Additionally, we incorporate a TimeMixer to capture multi-scale temporal dependencies, establishing a dual-hierarchy mechanism in both space and time. Experimental results on 4D occupancy forecasting and motion planning benchmarks demonstrate that CascadeOcc achieves superior performance among vision-centric approaches, validating that optimizing inherent representations is a powerful alternative to relying on external foundation models.

VLM-Aware Meta-Optic Front-End Design for Frozen Vision-Language Models

面向冻结视觉-语言模型的VLM感知元光学前端设计
Kang, Chanik, Pestourie, Raphaël, Chung, Haejun
Abstract
Conventional machine-vision pipelines typically rely on high-quality optics that produce clean, human-interpretable images, and optical design has therefore been driven by image-level criteria such as resolution, aberration correction, and pixel fidelity. However, such optics are often impractical for size-, cost-, or form-factor-constrained applications, where compact meta-optics offer an attractive alternative but operate under strict physical efficiency limits. We propose CODA, a co-design framework that optimizes a continuous-density meta-optic front-end for frozen-model recognition using differentiable image formation and adjoint-gradient updates of Maxwell-based simulations. CODA directly optimizes the cross-entropy loss of a fixed zero-shot CLIP classifier without learned reconstruction, image signal processing, or image-fidelity auxiliary objectives. In a two-dimensional simulated imaging benchmark on ImageNet-100, CODA improves CLIP ViT-L/14 zero-shot accuracy from 53.75 $\pm$ 3.57$\%$ with a focal-concentration baseline to 65.41 $\pm$ 3.99$\%$. The optimized optics further transfer without re-optimization across CLIP, SigLIP, and DINOv2 on ImageNet-100, CIFAR-100, and Food-101. These results demonstrate that, under constrained meta-optic imaging, downstream recognition can be improved by aligning optical design with frozen vision-model objectives rather than conventional image-formation criteria.

传统的机器视觉管道通常依赖于高质量的光学系统,以生成清晰且易于人类理解的图像,因此光学设计主要受到图像级标准的驱动,如分辨率、像差校正和像素保真度。然而,这种光学系统在尺寸、成本或形状因素受限的应用中往往不切实际,而紧凑的元光学则提供了一个有吸引力的替代方案,但在严格的物理效率限制下运行。我们提出了CODA,一个共同设计框架,优化用于冻结模型识别的连续密度元光学前端,采用可微分的图像形成和基于麦克斯韦模拟的伴随梯度更新。CODA直接优化固定零样本CLIP分类器的交叉熵损失,而无需学习重建、图像信号处理或图像保真度辅助目标。在ImageNet-100的二维模拟成像基准测试中,CODA将CLIP ViT-L/14的零样本准确率从53.75 $ ext{±}$ 3.57$ ext{ extperthousand}$的焦点集中基线提高到65.41 $ ext{±}$ 3.99$ ext{ extperthousand}$。优化后的光学系统在ImageNet-100、CIFAR-100和Food-101上,进一步在CLIP、SigLIP和DINOv2之间转移,无需重新优化。这些结果表明,在受限的元光学成像条件下,下游识别可以通过将光学设计与冻结视觉模型目标对齐,而不是依赖传统的图像形成标准来改善。

Temporal-Emerged Prompting for Segment Anything in Multiframe Infrared Small Target Detection

多帧红外小目标检测中的时序显现提示方法
Xing, Yinghui, Chu, Donghao, Zhang, Shizhou, Xu, Di
Abstract
Accurately localizing and segmenting small targets in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) infrared sequences remains a challenging task. Since targets are often indistinguishable from the background in individual frames, existing methods, even when equipped with advanced foundation model and powerful inter-frame association mechanisms, still fail to detect them. Motivated by the observation that targets tend to emerge gradually from the background over time and become distinguishable, we propose Temporal-Emerged Prompting for Segment Anything Model (TEP-SAM), a principled framework designed to explicitly exploit such temporal-emerged cues to modulate and prompt SAM. TEP-SAM operates by jointly modeling global motion patterns and local motion deviations to locate potential targets. It further enhances target region features by leveraging motion discrepancy, thereby generating temporal-emerged cues for SAM and enabling non-interactive segmentation. By bridging large-scale semantic pretraining with task-specific temporal modeling, TEP-SAM effectively adapts SAM to the challenging multiframe infrared small target detection task. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, particularly under severely low-SNR conditions and in complex dynamic background.

GeoFace: Consistent Multi-View Face Generation with Geometry-Constrained Diffusion

GeoFace:基于几何约束的多视角一致性人脸生成
Choi, Yeji, Choi, Jinhyeok, Min, Jaewon, Kwon, Minkyung, Kim, Jin Hyeon, Kim, Seungryong
Abstract
We present GeoFace, a geometry-constrained multi-view diffusion framework for consistent face generation from a single input. % While recent multi-view diffusion models achieve photorealistic synthesis at the per-view level, they lack an explicit mechanism to enforce a shared 3D structure across views, often leading to inconsistent geometry across viewpoints. To address this, GeoFace proposes a unified dual-stream framework for joint generation of multi-view RGB images and 3D face geometry, where the appearance and geometry streams interact through shared attention layers. To encourage the two streams to mutually constrain each other, we introduce a geometry-guided attention alignment loss that supervises the cross-attention between appearance and geometry tokens with 3D-consistent correspondences, enabling the appearance stream to correctly reference pose-invariant geometric cues for robust alignment across viewpoints. Geometry is represented as a canonical UV position map, derived from a FLAME mesh fitted to multi-view observations, serving as a view-invariant shared constraint across all generated views. Experiments on RenderMe-360 and NeRSemble demonstrate that GeoFace consistently outperforms existing methods in both visual quality and cross-view geometric consistency, facilitating more efficient 3D reconstruction.

MVPruner: Dynamic Token Pruning for Accelerating Multi-view Vision-Language Models in Autonomous Driving

MVPruner:用于加速自主驾驶中的多视角视觉-语言模型的动态标记剪枝
Yang, Nan, Liu, Zhanwen, Zhang, Linfeng, Xie, Shangyu, Wang, Yang, Zhou, Wenzhuo, Zhao, Xiangmo
Abstract
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) improve generalization and interpretability in autonomous driving but suffer from efficiency issues due to long visual token sequences, particularly in standard multi-view settings. Existing token pruning methods employ fixed pruning rate allocation and static importance metrics, ignoring dynamic inter-view importance differences and the evolving information importance during inference. Our analysis reveals that multi-view VLMs inherently encode task-related view priors in deeper layers and exhibit dynamic information requirements. Motivated by these findings, we propose MVPruner, a two-stage adaptive token pruning method that aligns pruning behavior with the model's dynamic information requirements. The first stage allocates pruning budgets based on the information diversity of each view, and retains tokens with consistent contribution across stages, ensuring semantic representational capacity. The second stage allocates budgets and selects tokens guided by instruction text to guarantee task alignment. Experimental results on four benchmarks demonstrate the superior performance of our method. For example, DriveMM equipped with MVPruner achieves 87.3% reduction in FLOPs, 4.97* speedup in prefilling phase while retaining 98.5% accuracy on DriveLM benchmark.

Explainable AI for Biodiversity Monitoring and Ecological Image Analysis

可解释人工智能在生物多样性监测和生态图像分析中的应用
Bent, Brinnae, Houliston, Holly R., Zhou, Jiayi, Aghakishiyeva, Günel, Johnston, David W.
Abstract
Artificial intelligence is transforming biodiversity monitoring by enabling automated analysis of ecological imagery collected from camera traps, drones, satellites, underwater platforms, and other sensing systems. These tools can expand the scale and speed of conservation assessments, yet many computer vision models remain difficult to inspect, making it challenging to determine whether predictions are based on ecologically meaningful signals or on spurious correlations, sampling biases, and other artifacts that may undermine conservation decisions. We argue that explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) should become a standard component of ecological model validation because conservation practitioners increasingly depend on understanding not only whether a model is accurate, but why it is accurate. We provide practical guidance for applying XAI to three common ecological computer vision tasks: image classification, object detection, and image segmentation. To illustrate how XAI can support ecological model auditing, refinement, and deployment, we present two case studies using aerial imagery: harbor seal detection and cetacean anatomical segmentation. These examples demonstrate how explanation methods can identify biologically meaningful cues, reveal false positives driven by background and shape confounds, uncover edge and occlusion effects, and guide data collection, augmentation, and retraining strategies. More broadly, they show how explainability can help assess whether model reasoning aligns with ecological understanding. We conclude by identifying key challenges and opportunities. By making model behavior more transparent and scientifically interrogable, XAI can help ensure that AI-supported ecological evidence is more reliable, understandable, and actionable for biodiversity conservation.

Abstract
Predicting electromagnetic field (EMF) strength in urban environments is essential for cellular network planning but computationally expensive with physics-based simulators. We propose a multi-conditioned dense prediction framework that generates 500 500 EMF maps from building layout images and antenna configurations. Our architecture uses a High-Resolution Transformer (HRFormer) backbone with two complementary conditioning mechanisms: Feature-wise Linear Modulation (FiLM) injects scalar antenna parameters into all backbone stages, while cross-attention fuses 1-D radiation pattern tokens with spatial features at the deepest stage. We further introduce transmitter-relative spatial channels encoding distance, proximity, and bearing from the antenna, enabling coordinate-consistent test-time augmentation (TTA) that reduces test MAE by 6.3%. To address the prediction difficulty imbalance across EMF maps, we design a composite loss combining masked L1, multi-scale structural similarity (MS-SSIM), and a focal L1 term that upweights high-signal pixels, outperforming individual loss components in all metrics. Our best model achieves a test MAE of 0.0461, a 25.2% improvement over a plain UNet baseline and 31.8% over an HRFormer-only baseline.Do-

Abstract
Cross-domain diagnosis remains a major challenge in cervical cell pathology due to pronounced domain shifts across institutions and the subtle visual differences among disease stages, which jointly impair model generalization. To address these issues, this paper proposes a two-stage framework for cross-domain cervical cell detection. In the first stage, we propose the Spatially-Continuous Unpaired Neural Schr\"odinger Bridge (SC-UNSB), which constructs a synthetic intermediate domain to mitigate cross-domain distribution shifts by modeling image translation as an entropy-regularized optimal transport process. In the second stage, we propose a dual-level feature alignment strategy within a knowledge distillation, which progressively aligns shallow structural features and deep semantic representations to facilitate the transfer of domain-invariant knowledge from the source to the target model. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method effectively mitigates domain shift and category ambiguity, improving the cross-domain detection performance.

Joint Transcription and Decryption of Images of Encrypted Handwritten Documents: A Comparison with the Traditional Pipeline

加密手写文档图像的联合转录与解密:与传统流程的比较

Abstract
Historical encrypted manuscripts present a challenging problem at the intersection of cryptology, linguistics, paleography, and computer vision. Current automatic decipherment approaches usually rely on a two-stage pipeline: transcription of cipher symbols from manuscript images, followed by decryption into plaintext. However, this design is sensitive to transcription errors, which propagate to the final output. We present Direct Image Decryption, an end-to-end approach that directly maps encrypted manuscript images to plaintext, bypassing the intermediate transcription stage. Using the Copiale cipher as a case study, we build a synthetic data generation pipeline to create large-scale cipher-like training data and compare the traditional pipeline with the proposed joint architecture.

历史加密手稿在密码学、语言学、古文字学和计算机视觉的交叉领域中提出了一个具有挑战性的问题。目前的自动解密方法通常依赖于两阶段流程:首先从手稿图像中转录密码符号,然后将其解密为明文。然而,这种设计对转录错误非常敏感,这些错误会传播到最终输出。我们提出了一种直接图像解密(Direct Image Decryption)的方法,这是一种端到端的方案,直接将加密手稿图像映射到明文,绕过中间的转录阶段。以Copiale密码为案例研究,我们建立了一个合成数据生成流程,以创建大规模的类密码训练数据,并将传统流程与所提出的联合架构进行比较。结果表明,联合图像到明文建模是传统基于转录流程的有希望的替代方案。

ZooClaw-FashionSigLIP2: Distilled Fine-tuning for Robust Fashion Retrieval

ZooClaw-FashionSigLIP2:用于稳健时尚检索的蒸馏微调
Xue, Siqiao, Xu, Chunxue
Abstract
Adapting a foundation vision-language encoder to a specialized retrieval task creates a fundamental tradeoff: gains on the target distribution come at the cost of the foundation model's broad generalization, and fashion retrieval is a stringent instance of this problem. We present ZooClaw-FashionSigLIP2, a fashion-specialized SigLIP2-base model that resolves this tradeoff with a simple recipe -- full fine-tuning with knowledge distillation on curated in-domain data, followed by \wiseft~\citep{wortsman2022wiseft} weight interpolation with the base model -- and outperforms LoRA, larger backbones (up to 1B parameters), and external training data. Under fair evaluation, ZooClaw-FashionSigLIP2 outperforms all baselines on every benchmark in our suite. In addition, we release ZooClaw-Fashion, a new high-quality fashion retrieval benchmark, and a systematic quality analysis of widely-used benchmarks that exposes and mitigates structural biases in their public ground truth. We open-source the model weights and all evaluation artifacts to facilitate future research.

MASS: Motion-Aligned Selective Scan for Refinement in Flow-Based Video Frame Interpolation

MASS:基于运动对齐的选择性扫描用于流动视频帧插值的精细化
Yoo, Jun-Sang, Jung, Seung-Won
Abstract
Video frame interpolation (VFI) remains a challenging task, particularly when dealing with large, non-linear motions and complex occlusions. While flow-based methods are prevalent, they often struggle with ambiguous correspondences. Recent VFI methods based on selective State Space Models (SSMs) are still limited by static grid-based scanning that misaligns with physical motion. In this paper, we propose Motion-Aligned Selective Scan (MASS), a novel framework that reformulates feature scanning from static spatial grids to dynamic motion trajectories. MASS builds a feature sequence along each pixel's flow-guided trajectory and aggregates it with an SSM. Specifically, we introduce a learnable non-linear path integration to approximate complex curved trajectories via residual velocity updates, and a velocity-aware SSM that dynamically adjusts the sampling budget and step size based on motion magnitude. This adaptive strategy allocates denser sampling to fast-motion regions while keeping static regions efficient. Furthermore, the aggregated states guide a refinement module to rectify intermediate flows and masks in an end-to-end manner. Extensive experiments indicate that MASS achieves highly competitive overall performance on standard benchmarks, establishing state-of-the-art results particularly in challenging scenarios with large displacements and complex dynamics.

视频帧插值(VFI)仍然是一项具有挑战性的任务,尤其是在处理大规模非线性运动和复杂遮挡时。尽管基于流的方法广泛应用,但它们常常在模糊对应关系上遇到困难。近期基于选择性状态空间模型(SSMs)的VFI方法仍然受到静态网格扫描的限制,这与物理运动不对齐。本文提出了一种新的框架——运动对齐选择性扫描(MASS),将特征扫描从静态空间网格重新构造为动态运动轨迹。MASS沿着每个像素的流引导轨迹构建特征序列,并与SSM进行聚合。具体而言,我们引入了一种可学习的非线性路径积分,通过残余速度更新来近似复杂的曲线路径,以及一种速度感知的SSM,根据运动幅度动态调整采样预算和步长。这种自适应策略为快速运动区域分配更密集的采样,同时保持静态区域的高效性。此外,聚合的状态指导一个精细化模块,以端到端的方式修正中间流和掩膜。大量实验表明,MASS在标准基准测试中实现了高度竞争的整体性能,特别是在大位移和复杂动态的挑战场景中建立了最先进的结果。

Scene and Human in One World: Reconstruction in a Feedforward Pass

场景与人类共存于一个世界:前馈传递中的重建
Shi, Boao, Feng, Qiao, Huang, Yiming, Liu, Lingjie
Abstract
Reconstructing humans in dynamic scenes from moving monocular cameras remains challenging due to scale ambiguity, human-scene misalignment, and occlusion interference. Rather than treating human mesh recovery and scene reconstruction as separate tasks, we believe that accurate human-scene reconstruction requires the two tasks to mutually inform each other: parametric human models offer semantic structure and metric-scale priors, while scene geometry provides spatial context for human localization and alignment. Built on this insight, we introduce SHOW, a mask-promptable human mesh recovery framework that couples feed-forward 3D scene reconstruction with Human Mesh Recovery in a unified metric space. SHOW injects human semantics and scale priors from parametric human models into normalized point-map prediction, enabling metric-scale scene reconstruction from inherently scale-ambiguous monocular input. In turn, the recovered scene geometry constrains human mesh estimation, encouraging spatially consistent human placement and improved human-scene alignment. To handle complex multi-person and cluttered scenes, SHOW further incorporates a promptable masking mechanism that enables flexible target-human selection while suppressing background distractions and occlusion interference. Through joint training, the model learns both human-aware geometric features and geometry-constrained human features, producing aligned metric-scale reconstructions from monocular human-centric videos. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SHOW improves metric-scale consistency, human-scene alignment, and reconstruction accuracy under challenging camera motion, occlusion, and cluttered backgrounds.

从移动的单目摄像机中重建动态场景中的人类仍然面临挑战,主要由于尺度模糊、人类与场景的不对齐以及遮挡干扰。我们认为,准确的人类-场景重建需要将人类网格恢复和场景重建视为相互关联的任务:参数化的人类模型提供语义结构和度量尺度先验,而场景几何则为人类定位和对齐提供空间上下文。基于这一见解,我们提出了SHOW,一个可通过掩模提示的人类网格恢复框架,将前馈3D场景重建与人类网格恢复结合在一个统一的度量空间中。SHOW将来自参数化人类模型的人类语义和尺度先验注入到归一化点图预测中,使得能够从本质上尺度模糊的单目输入中进行度量尺度的场景重建。反过来,恢复的场景几何约束了人类网格估计,促进了空间一致的人类放置和改善的人类-场景对齐。为了处理复杂的多人物和杂乱场景,SHOW进一步结合了可提示的掩模机制,使得在抑制背景干扰和遮挡干扰的同时,能够灵活选择目标人类。通过联合训练,模型学习到人类感知的几何特征和几何约束的人类特征,从单目以人类为中心的视频中生成对齐的度量尺度重建。大量实验表明,SHOW在挑战性的摄像机运动、遮挡和杂乱背景下提高了度量尺度的一致性、人类-场景对齐和重建精度。

Learning 1-Bit LiDAR-based Localization with Auxiliary Objective

基于1位LiDAR的定位学习与辅助目标
Yin, Kaijie, Zhang, Zhiyuan, Gao, Tian, Zhu, Wentao, Xu, Cheng-zhong, Kong, Hui
Abstract
6-DoF LiDAR-based localization is a fundamental capability for autonomous systems operating in large-scale outdoor environments. Many deep-learning-based localization methods have achieved promising performance so far. However, as one of the always-on modules competing for limited on-board computational resources, the localization module is expected to consume only a small portion of the overall compute budget. Most existing learning-based methods are still too heavy for this purpose. In contrast, binary neural networks (BNNs) offer an appealing solution, but the 1-bit compression causes severe information loss and performance drop. In this paper, we address this challenge by proposing Binarized LiDAR-based Localization (BiLoc), the first binary neural network framework for 6-DoF LiDAR localization. Specifically, we reinterpret the training of BNNs from the perspective of the information-bottleneck principle, aiming at retaining minimal yet sufficient representations for pose estimation while suppressing redundant variations. And we introduce an auxiliary objective that adaptively regulates information retention in the binary encoder, effectively mitigating the information loss caused by binarization. This auxiliary objective provides additional optimization signals that compensate for the limited representational capacity and the gradient mismatch inherent in BNNs. Extensive experiments on large-scale outdoor LiDAR datasets demonstrate that BiLoc establishes a new state of the art for LiDAR localization with BNNs.

六自由度(6-DoF)基于LiDAR的定位是自主系统在大规模户外环境中操作的基本能力。迄今为止,许多基于深度学习的定位方法已经取得了令人鼓舞的性能。然而,作为一个始终在线的模块,它与有限的车载计算资源竞争,定位模块预计只会消耗整体计算预算的一小部分。大多数现有的基于学习的方法仍然过于庞大,无法满足这一需求。相比之下,二进制神经网络(BNNs)提供了一个吸引人的解决方案,但1位压缩导致严重的信息损失和性能下降。本文通过提出二进制LiDAR定位(BiLoc),解决了这一挑战,这是第一个用于6-DoF LiDAR定位的二进制神经网络框架。具体而言,我们从信息瓶颈原理的角度重新解释BNNs的训练,旨在保留最小但足够的姿态估计表示,同时抑制冗余变化。我们引入了一个辅助目标,能够自适应地调节二进制编码器中的信息保留,有效减轻由二进制化引起的信息损失。这个辅助目标提供了额外的优化信号,以补偿BNNs固有的有限表示能力和梯度不匹配。对大规模户外LiDAR数据集的广泛实验表明,BiLoc在基于BNNs的LiDAR定位中建立了新的最先进水平。

SIFT: Self-Imagination Fine-Tuning for Physically Plausible Motion in Video Diffusion Models

SIFT:用于视频扩散模型中物理合理运动的自我想象微调
Wang, Ruoyu, Liu, Jialun, Huang, Huayang, Huang, Haibin, Wang, Jiepeng, Zhang, Chi, Li, Xuelong, Wu, Yu
Abstract
Recent advances in video diffusion models have greatly improved visual fidelity, yet their generated motions often violate physical plausibility. We observe a common kinematic failure, "motion entanglement", the unintended coupling of independent motion sources, such as camera movement and object motion. We identify that this issue stems from data bias and the reconstruction-based training design of diffusion models. Training on noisy videos that still retain coarse motion cues inadvertently encourages the model to replicate existing motion without an incentive to learn how to model kinematically-grounded motions. To address this, we propose a Self-Imagination Fine-Tuning (SIFT) paradigm, which enables the model to learn from its own generated videos rather than directly reconstructing real ones, breaking the reconstruction shortcut. We further employ motion-aware discriminative supervision and a progressive hard-case replay strategy to stabilize and accelerate learning. By leveraging freely-generated text prompts, our method can densely cover a broad motion space, including rare or finely-disentangled scenarios that would be costly to collect as video data. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach substantially improves the physical realism, motion disentanglement, and controllability of generated videos.

最近,视频扩散模型的进展大大提高了视觉逼真度,但其生成的运动往往违反物理合理性。我们观察到一种常见的运动学失败,即“运动纠缠”,即独立运动源(如相机运动和物体运动)之间的意外耦合。我们确定这个问题源于数据偏差和扩散模型的基于重建的训练设计。在噪声视频上训练,这些视频仍然保留粗略的运动线索,无意中促使模型复制现有运动,而没有激励其学习如何建模基于运动学的运动。为了解决这个问题,我们提出了一种自我想象微调(Self-Imagination Fine-Tuning,SIFT)范式,使模型能够从自身生成的视频中学习,而不是直接重建真实视频,从而打破重建捷径。我们进一步采用运动感知的判别监督和渐进式难例重放策略,以稳定和加速学习。通过利用自由生成的文本提示,我们的方法可以密集覆盖广泛的运动空间,包括稀有或细致分离的场景,这些场景作为视频数据收集成本高昂。大量实验表明,我们的方法显著提高了生成视频的物理真实感、运动解耦和可控性。

Panoramic Scene Analysis: A Survey from Distortion-Aware Engineering to Sphere-Native Foundation Modeling

全景场景分析:从考虑畸变的工程到球面原生基础建模的综述
Zhu, Qinfeng, Fan, Lei
Abstract
Panoramic images capture the complete visual sphere in a single frame, providing spatial context unattainable by conventional cameras. Yet this completeness comes at a geometric cost: the 2-sphere cannot be faithfully mapped to the plane, and every planar representation introduces distortions that violate the assumptions underlying standard vision architectures. This survey traces the evolution of panoramic scene analysis along a methodological trajectory, from projection-based adaptation, through distortion-aware engineering, to sphere-native modeling and geometry-aware tokenization for foundation models, and argues that this evolution reflects a progressive deepening of geometric commitment rather than a simple accumulation of techniques. We organize the literature along two orthogonal dimensions: architectural design (how operators interact with spherical geometry) and training paradigm (how knowledge is transferred across domains). Covering dense prediction (semantic segmentation, depth estimation, and room layout estimation), unified multi-task understanding, open-world perception, vision-language reasoning, and dynamic video analysis, we identify a central unresolved tension: among the methods surveyed, none simultaneously delivers strict spherical equivariance and full reuse of perspective-pretrained foundation-model weights, and we argue that this is a structural rather than incidental gap. We further expose five systematic gaps in current evaluation protocols, namely the absence of spherical-area-weighted metrics, seam-consistency testing, polar-robustness stratification, cross-projection generalization, and open-world protocol standardization, and propose a six-point research roadmap toward general-purpose panoramic intelligence.

PixelU: A U-Shaped Transformer for Efficient End-to-End Pixel Diffusion

PixelU:一种用于高效端到端像素扩散的U形变换器
Guo, Zipeng, Ma, Lichen, He, Yu, Fu, Xiaolong, Fu, Jingling, Huang, Junshi, Li, Yan
Abstract
End-to-end pixel-space diffusion models bypass the lossy compression of Latent Diffusion Models (LDMs) but struggle to jointly model low-frequency semantics and high-frequency signals in high-dimensional space. Existing works heavily rely on complex pixel decoders to alleviate this issue. In this paper, we challenge this trend by revealing that these decoders primarily compensate for the optimization difficulties inherent to velocity prediction ($v$-prediction). Under the clean data paradigm ($x$-prediction), they are redundant. Motivated by this insight, we advocate for simplicity over complexity and introduce PixelU, a minimalist, single-stage U-shaped Diffusion Transformer tailored for pixel space. PixelU abandons auxiliary decoders in favor of zero-cost skip connections, which provide an "information highway" that directly routes uncorrupted high-frequency spatial details from shallow to deep layers. To further enable the backbone to focus exclusively on modeling low-frequency semantics, we introduce a constant-channel spatial down-sampling mechanism as a natural low-pass filter, which compresses deep features into a compact, low-frequency semantic manifold. Extensive experiments demonstrate that this decoupling of frequencies could outperform the strong baseline (JiT-G) with only about 1/3 of its computation cost. On ImageNet 256$\times$256 and 512$\times$512, PixelU achieves FID of 1.63 and 1.92 respectively, surpassing recent pixel-space methods and establishing a simple yet powerful new paradigm for end-to-end diffusion models.

Abstract
Vehicle license plate recognition is an integral component of intelligent transportation systems. In this work, we present an embedded real-time license plate recognition system customized for developing countries. We address the challenge of handling complex, unstructured traffic scenes with diverse vehicle types while implementing the system on an embedded platform for low-cost deployment. Our method consists of license plate detection on a multi-vehicle image, followed by character recognition on the detected license plates. Both steps use lightweight convolutional neural networks to balance accuracy and efficiency. We also introduce the SL-LPR dataset of Sri Lankan road images, which contains a variety of vehicle types and traffic conditions typically seen in developing countries. On this dataset, the license plate detection and character recognition models achieved 93.6% mAP and 87.88% accuracy, respectively, and were competitive against larger models on several public datasets. To achieve real-time performance in a resource-constrained embedded environment, we applied low-bitwidth quantization using the Brevitas library and implemented FPGA acceleration for the models using the FINN framework. The end-to-end system can operate at 11.5~FPS when implemented on the Xilinx Kria KV260 platform. These results demonstrate that our system is effective for real-time license plate recognition on an embedded device, even in complex traffic scenarios.

ModaFlow: Modality-Aware Flow Matching for High-Fidelity Virtual Try-On

ModaFlow:面向模态的流匹配用于高保真虚拟试穿
Sai, Xiangyu, Madadi, Meysam, Escalera, Sergio, Xu, Yong
Abstract
Image-based virtual try-on has emerged as a compelling task in e-commerce and augmented reality, yet existing methods struggle to simultaneously preserve fine garment semantics and adapt to diverse person body geometries under large clothing-body deformations. We present ModaFlow, a modality-aware flow-matching based framework for high-fidelity virtual try-on that achieves precise alignment between textual descriptions and garment appearance. Unlike prior methods that treat multimodal conditions uniformly, ModaFlow introduces a modality-aware guidance scheme: visual garment embeddings extracted by a pretrained image prompt adapter provide deterministic, persistent structural guidance, while textual embeddings generated from garment descriptions are controlled via classifier-free guidance (CFG) with adaptive scaling and zero-initialized velocity. To further enhance flow field accuracy, we propose two regularization losses, cosine similarity and perceptual flow discrimination, that jointly improve directional consistency and perceptual realism of the velocity field. Additionally, a mask manipulation strategy stochastically samples among box, transparent, and relaxed masks during training, simulating diverse occlusion scenarios and enabling robust inference under unpaired settings where only a box mask is available. Experiments show that ModaFlow achieves state-of-the-art results in both qualitative and quantitative evaluations, reducing FID by approximately 30% on paired and 20% on unpaired benchmarks.

TRUST: Efficient Abdominal Trauma Recognition via Image-to-Ultrasound-Video Transfer Learning

TRUST:通过图像到超声视频的迁移学习实现高效的腹部创伤识别
Wang, Enguang, Zhou, Hao, Gao, Shuo, Liu, Tuo, Zhou, Guangquan
Abstract
Abdominal ultrasound is indispensable for rapid, noninvasive trauma triage. However, interpreting the subtle dynamic cues embedded in continuous scanning is time-intensive and operator-dependent. Parameter-Efficient Image-to-Video Transfer Learning (PEIVTL), which efficiently adapts pre-trained image models to the video domain, notably through visual-textual alignment, offers a promising paradigm for ultrasound video analysis. Nevertheless, substantial spatiotemporal and semantic variations arising from physician-dependent scanning practices continue to limit the effectiveness and generalizability of this framework. We propose TRUST, a scan-aware PEIVTL framework that explicitly models fine-grained spatiotemporal variations to enable reliable ultrasound video understanding. First, we introduce a Cross-Frequency Collaborative Adapter (CFCA) that establishes mutual constraints between low- and high-frequency components, enhancing discriminative spatial feature extraction under heavy speckle corruption. Second, we design a Multi-Granularity Motion-Aware (MGMA) module that integrates local temporal convolutions with motion-prior-guided global self-attention, jointly capturing stable intra-view patterns and abrupt inter-view transitions to characterize complex scanning dynamics. Third, a Visual Query Semantic Aggregation (VQSA) module dynamically generates text prototypes conditioned on visual features, enabling adaptive visual-textual alignment robust to intra-class variability under diverse scanning conditions. Experiments on in-house ultrasound trauma datasets demonstrate that TRUST outperforms state-of-the-art methods by 9.63% with superior computational efficiency.

MindFlow: Harmonizing Cognitive Semantics and Acoustic Dynamics for Facial Animation Generation in Dyadic Conversations

MindFlow:协调认知语义与声学动态以生成双人对话中的面部动画

Abstract
Generating lifelike facial animation for dyadic conversations requires reconciling high-level cognitive intent with precise low-level motor reflexes, yet existing methods fall short in the semantic understanding of dialogue context and in precise dynamic control. In this paper, we propose MindFlow, a dual-pathway generative framework inspired by the Ventral-Dorsal pathway model in neuroscience, which decouples generation into two collaborative streams, thereby harmonizing deep semantic reasoning with fine-grained control. In the Ventral module, we transform the conventional Sentence-Action approach into a novel Chunk-State approach that models raw acoustic streams as a context-aware, evolving emotional state chain, capturing subtle paralinguistic nuances and mid-utterance emotional shifts missed by sentence-level modeling. The Dorsal module features a conditional autoregressive flow matching network for high-fidelity facial motion, driven by high-frequency acoustic cues and modulated by emotion states, plus a Selective Acoustic Injector for adaptive audio gating to ensure robustness in talking-and-listening dynamics without interference. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MindFlow achieves superior semantic appropriateness and motion naturalness compared to state-of-the-art baselines.

Improving Adversarial Robustness via Activation Amplification and Attenuation

通过激活放大与衰减提高对抗鲁棒性
Gonçalves, Taïga, Huang, Yongsong, Miyazaki, Tomo, Omachi, Shinichiro
Abstract
The existence of adversarial attacks is often attributed to the presence of non-robust features in neural networks. While prior defenses reduce their impact via pruning, masking, or feature recalibration, we instead propose to jointly learn to amplify and attenuate these signals through a simple activation scaling mechanism. To this end, we introduce Activation Amplification and Attenuation (A3), a lightweight plug-in module that enhances adversarial robustness with minimal modifications of the activations. A3 dynamically rescales the activations using a learnable mask and a scaling factor derived from the original activation magnitudes. The influence of adversarial perturbations can be amplified or attenuated using the same learnable parameters by simply flipping the sign of the scaling operation. The amplified signals serve as negative references to construct novel contrastive and ranking loss functions. Experimental analysis shows that learning to degrade the predictions in amplification mode simultaneously improves adversarial robustness in attenuation mode. Moreover, A3 relies on only a small number of learnable parameters, with most of its behavior being determined by the scaling mechanism rather than additional network capacity. Extensive experiments demonstrate that integrating A3 into different backbones, datasets, and training methods consistently improves adversarial robustness while introducing negligible computational and memory overhead compared to existing plug-in modules.

对抗攻击的存在通常归因于神经网络中非鲁棒特征的存在。虽然之前的防御方法通过剪枝、遮蔽或特征重新校准来减少其影响,我们则提出通过简单的激活缩放机制共同学习放大和衰减这些信号。为此,我们引入了激活放大与衰减(Activation Amplification and Attenuation, A3),这是一个轻量级的插件模块,能够在对激活进行最小修改的情况下增强对抗鲁棒性。A3使用可学习的掩码和源自原始激活幅度的缩放因子动态地重新缩放激活。通过简单地翻转缩放操作的符号,可以使用相同的可学习参数放大或衰减对抗扰动的影响。放大的信号作为负参考,用于构建新颖的对比损失和排名损失函数。实验分析表明,在放大模式下学习降低预测值同时能在衰减模式下提高对抗鲁棒性。此外,A3仅依赖少量可学习参数,其大部分行为由缩放机制决定,而非额外的网络容量。大量实验表明,将A3集成到不同的主干网络、数据集和训练方法中,始终能够提高对抗鲁棒性,同时与现有插件模块相比,带来的计算和内存开销微乎其微。代码可在以下链接获取:https://github.com/tgoncalv/A3。

Text as Illumination: Spatial Contrastive Retinex Learning for Language-guided Medical Image Segmentation

文本作为照明:基于空间对比Retinex学习的语言引导医学图像分割
Shi, Jian, Zhen, Cheng, Zhang, Pingping, Xu, Rui, Lv, Yanan, Ma, Yili, Bi, Huan, Li, Haojie, Lu, Huchuan
Abstract
Language-guided Medical Image Segmentation (LMIS) has shown great potential to improve the delineation of anatomical structures and lesions by integrating clinical textual information. Existing methods generally rely on either implicit interaction between textual and visual features or auxiliary coarse-grained supervision for cross-modal alignment. However, these methods lack explicit and fine-grained constraints to ensure semantic consistency, causing a mismatch between language and the segmentation outputs. To address this issue, we propose Text-as-Illumination Retinex Network (TIRNet), a novel Retinex-inspired framework that treats text embeddings as semantic illumination for feature modulation, thereby improving semantic consistency in LMIS. TIRNet introduces two key blocks integrated at each decoder stage: (1) the Retinex-inspired Text Modulation Block (RTMB), which employs positive and negative illumination maps to enhance text-relevant foreground features and suppress background interference; and (2) the Consistent Detail Compensation Block (CDCB), which selectively recovers high-frequency details via a consistency-gated mechanism conditioned on illumination reliability. Furthermore, we propose a Multi-Scale Illumination Supervision Loss (MSIS-Loss), comprising a Region-Grounded Contrastive Loss (RGC-Loss) that enforces cross-modal similarity to be concentrated in text-relevant foreground regions and suppressed in background regions, and a Background Suppression Loss (BS-Loss) that provides pixel-level supervision for negative illumination maps, jointly ensuring a precise cross-modal alignment at each decoder stage. Extensive experiments on the MosMedData+ and QaTa-COV19 datasets demonstrate that TIRNet achieves state-of-the-art performance in LMIS. The code is available at: https://github.com/anaanaa/TIRNet.

语言引导医学图像分割(LMIS)通过整合临床文本信息,展现出改善解剖结构和病变轮廓描绘的巨大潜力。现有方法通常依赖于文本特征与视觉特征之间的隐式交互或辅助的粗粒度监督进行跨模态对齐。然而,这些方法缺乏明确且细粒度的约束,以确保语义一致性,导致语言与分割输出之间的不匹配。为了解决这一问题,我们提出了文本作为照明的Retinex网络(TIRNet),这是一个新颖的受Retinex启发的框架,将文本嵌入视为特征调制的语义照明,从而提高LMIS中的语义一致性。TIRNet在每个解码器阶段引入了两个关键模块:(1)受Retinex启发的文本调制模块(RTMB),利用正负照明图增强与文本相关的前景特征并抑制背景干扰;(2)一致性细节补偿模块(CDCB),通过基于照明可靠性条件的一致性门控机制选择性地恢复高频细节。此外,我们提出了一种多尺度照明监督损失(MSIS-Loss),包括区域基础对比损失(RGC-Loss),该损失强制跨模态相似性集中在与文本相关的前景区域,并在背景区域被抑制,以及背景抑制损失(BS-Loss),为负照明图提供像素级监督,联合确保每个解码器阶段的精确跨模态对齐。在MosMedData+和QaTa-COV19数据集上的大量实验表明,TIRNet在LMIS中实现了最先进的性能。代码可在以下链接获取:https://github.com/anaanaa/TIRNet。

Scalable and Differentiable Point-Cloud Registration Using Maximum Mean Discrepancy

基于最大均值差异的可扩展且可微分的点云配准
Crane, Rixon, Maken, Fahira Afzal, Lawrance, Nicholas, Funiak, Stanislav, Khosoussi, Kasra, Xu, Ming, Tsuchida, Russell
Abstract
We present MMD-Reg, a novel correspondence-free approach to point-cloud registration that is differentiable and has linear computational complexity in the number of points. We model registration as a nonlinear least-squares problem based on the Maximum Mean Discrepancy, approximated using random Fourier features. The resulting objective can be solved efficiently with standard methods such as Levenberg-Marquardt, and the solution is differentiable via the implicit function theorem. This allows MMD-Reg to be used as a differentiable optimization layer within end-to-end trainable models, supporting registration under challenging conditions such as poor initial alignment and partial overlap. We demonstrate this Neural MMD-Reg formulation by integrating the layer with a set transformer, training the resulting model in supervised and unsupervised settings, and comparing its performance against recent learning-based methods. We also evaluate standalone MMD-Reg, comparing its accuracy and scalability against widely used non-learning-based registration methods.

Video-MME-Logical: A Controlled Diagnostic Benchmark for Video Temporal-Logical Reasoning

视频-MME-逻辑:一个用于视频时间逻辑推理的受控诊断基准
Kwan, Hohin, Li, Hongyu, Zhang, Ray, Zhang, Manyuan, Kong, Xianghao, Rao, Anyi, Xie, Jiahao, Liu, Si
Abstract
Recent interest in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) raises a central question: can they reason over dynamic visual evidence rather than merely recognize objects or events in individual frames? This ability, which we refer to as video temporal-logical reasoning, requires models to maintain, update, and compose evidence as visual states evolve across frames. Existing video benchmarks often conflate this capability with scene complexity, static recognition, or uncontrolled temporal variation. To isolate this capability, we introduce Video-MME-Logical, a controlled benchmark organized around five temporal-logical operations: state tracking, sequential counting, temporal ordering, dynamic spatiality, and structural composition. The benchmark contains 25 fine-grained task categories generated with controlled object states, transitions, temporal dependencies, and logical compositions. It enables difficulty-controlled final-answer evaluation by varying temporal horizon and reasoning complexity, and supports intermediate-state diagnostics by verifying whether models recover the required logical reasoning trace before producing the final answer. Experiments with state-of-the-art MLLMs reveal a substantial human-model gap, especially as temporal-logical complexity increases. Supervised fine-tuning on up to 500K generated samples improves performance but remains insufficient to close the reasoning gap, positioning Video-MME-Logical as a scalable testbed for analyzing and improving temporal-logical reasoning in MLLMs.

近年来对多模态大型语言模型(MLLMs)的关注引发了一个核心问题:它们能否在动态视觉证据上进行推理,而不仅仅是在单个帧中识别对象或事件?我们称这种能力为视频时间逻辑推理,它要求模型在视觉状态跨帧演变的过程中维护、更新和组合证据。现有的视频基准往往将这一能力与场景复杂性、静态识别或不受控制的时间变化混为一谈。为了孤立这一能力,我们引入了视频-MME-逻辑,这是一个围绕五种时间逻辑操作组织的受控基准:状态跟踪、顺序计数、时间排序、动态空间性和结构组合。该基准包含25个细粒度任务类别,这些类别是通过控制对象状态、转变、时间依赖关系和逻辑组合生成的。它通过改变时间范围和推理复杂性,实现了难度受控的最终答案评估,并通过验证模型在生成最终答案之前是否恢复所需的逻辑推理轨迹,支持中间状态诊断。与最先进的MLLMs的实验揭示了显著的人类-模型差距,尤其是在时间逻辑复杂性增加时。对多达50万生成样本的监督微调提高了性能,但仍不足以缩小推理差距,使得视频-MME-逻辑成为分析和改善MLLMs中时间逻辑推理的可扩展测试平台。

CSD: Content-aware Speculative Decoding for Efficient Image Generation

CSD:内容感知的推测解码用于高效图像生成

Abstract
Speculative decoding (SD) has emerged as a key solution to accelerate the inference of autoregressive models. However, in the field of image generation, it faces the challenge of low acceptance rates, and directly relaxing its criteria leads to degradation in image quality. In this paper, we propose a novel content-aware speculative decoding algorithm, termed CSD, which integrates an entropy-based probability relaxation mechanism with an optimal resampling strategy to enhance the inference efficiency for autoregressive image generation. By leveraging the informational uncertainty inherent in different regions of an image, CSD dynamically adjusts the acceptance probability of candidate tokens, increasing the acceptance rate in low-detail areas to accelerate generation. Moreover, a distribution alignment filter is introduced to ensure the output distribution to be aligned with the target model, which significantly improves the generative quality. Experiments conducted on Lumina-mGPT and Janus-Pro demonstrate that the superiority of the proposed CSD. Our source code is available at https://github.com/aderfebr/CSD.

Hippocampus-DETR: An Explicit Memory Object Detection Framework Based on Hippocampus Modeling

海马-DETR:基于海马建模的显式记忆目标检测框架
Shi, Zhaoning, Ma, Bo, Xu, Hao, Yang, Zepeng, Liang, Bo
Abstract
This paper addresses the lack of explicit memory mechanisms in current object detection models and proposes Hippocampus-DETR, a novel detection framework based on biological hippocampal memory modeling. This framework integrates a hippocampal memory network module, HipNet, into the DETR architecture and systematically simulates the anatomical structure and functional organization of hippocampal subregions, including the entorhinal cortex, dentate gyrus, CA3, CA1, and subiculum. Through this design, Hippocampus-DETR realizes pattern separation, pattern completion, importance filtering, and information integration of visual encoding features. During training, different memory submodules are optimized using a layer-wise training strategy, ultimately forming a memory system with memory retrieval and completion capabilities. Experimental results demonstrate that Hippocampus-DETR achieves higher detection accuracy than current mainstream models. More importantly, models equipped with this framework also exhibit excellent generalization ability and data efficiency in tasks such as few-shot image classification, multimodal feature construction, and image restoration. Subsequent experiments further validate the functional necessity and internal interpretability of each memory submodule. This study not only provides a novel object detection framework, but also offers a feasible technical pathway for integrating neurocognitive mechanisms with deep learning models, highlighting its significant value in improving model learning efficiency and task robustness.

ScaLe-INR: Scale and Learn Implicit Neural Representations

ScaLe-INR:尺度与学习隐式神经表示
Epakanda, Buwaneka, Ratnayake, Athulya, Thennakoon, Pandula, De Silva, Mario, Ranasinghe, Avishka, Godaliyadda, Roshan, Ekanayake, Parakrama
Abstract
Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) parameterized by multilayer perceptrons excel at modeling continuous signals. However, a key challenge persists as INRs fundamentally suffer from spectral bias and information cross-talk. When a single network attempts to capture multi-scale phenomena, high-frequency weight updates destructively interfere with the underlying low-frequency structural approximation. We introduce Scale and Learn INR (ScaLe-INR), a novel multi-branch architecture that resolves these limitations by explicitly matching the signal's frequency spectrum with the optimal operating region of the INR. Drawing upon the Fourier inverse scaling theorem we demonstrate that applying directional coordinate scaling expands a network's representational bandwidth along specific spatial axes. To mathematically enforce functional disentanglement and minimize task-specific information leakage between branches, we propose a Directional Edge Guidance Loss, a spatially-conditioned sparsity prior derived from ground-truth gradients. By constraining the high-frequency branches to act as strict, localized edge-filters, ScaLe-INR eliminates spectral cross-talk, accelerates convergence, and achieves high-fidelity signal reconstruction on complex multi-scale topologies. We evaluate ScaLe-INR across diverse reconstruction and inverse tasks, demonstrating substantial performance gains over existing state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods. The proposed architecture improves upon the nearest baselines by +5.16 dB in image reconstruction and +0.65 dB in image denoising. Furthermore, it achieve an impressive figure of 50.02 dB on audio reconstruction and 0.999 IOU(Intersection Over Union) on 3D reconstruction which beats the all SOTA models.

A Unified Framework for Vision Transformers Equivariant to Discrete Subgroups of $\mathrm{O}(2)$

一个统一框架的视觉变换器,对离散子群 $ ext{O}(2)$ 具有等变性
Ông, T\=ıkun, Bökman, Georg
Abstract
Vision transformers have become a dominant architecture for visual recognition. However, standard models do not explicitly encode the planar symmetries that arise in many vision domains. We introduce a family of vision transformers equivariant to arbitrary discrete subgroups of $\mathrm{O}(2)$, providing a unified framework that generalizes prior flipping- and $D_4$-equivariant transformer architectures. Our construction yields equivariant analogues of the core transformer components, together with expressivity guarantees for the resulting layers. In particular, we show that whenever $H \le G$, the class of $G$-equivariant ViTs embeds naturally into the class of $H$-equivariant ViTs. We also prove that, in the single-head setting, the corresponding equivariant self-attention layer realizes every $G$-equivariant self-attention map representable by ordinary self-attention. We further construct a $D_6$-equivariant model based on hexagonal patches, making the architecture compatible with six-fold rotational symmetries. We evaluate the resulting models on the PatternNet aerial image dataset in artificially data-scarce regimes across subgroups of $D_4$ and $D_6$. Our experiments compare two equivariant attention mechanisms and analyze how the choice of homogeneous-space configurations used in the nonlinearities affects performance. Preliminary results under matched parameter budgets indicate that equivariance can improve recognition accuracy, motivating further study of how discrete symmetry groups shape transformer-based visual recognition models.

SpatialUAV: Benchmarking Spatial Intelligence for Low-Altitude UAV Perception, Collaboration, and Motion

SpatialUAV:低空无人机感知、协作与运动的空间智能基准测试

Abstract
Spatial intelligence is essential for low-altitude unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) perception, collaboration, and navigation. However, existing UAV benchmarks often emphasize image-level recognition, single-view understanding, or narrow answer formats, leaving 3D spatial inference, multi-view collaboration, scene dynamics, and diverse task formulations insufficiently evaluated. To address these gaps, we introduce SpatialUAV, a real low-altitude UAV benchmark comprising 4,331 curated instances across 14 fine-grained task types, covering semantic discrimination, spatial relation, aerial--aerial collaboration, aerial--ground collaboration, and motion understanding. SpatialUAV organizes all samples into a unified visual-input--question--answer schema, while supporting seven input configurations and nine answer formats, including option labels, region identifiers, geometric values, cross-view correspondences, and free-form motion descriptions. To ensure reliable and grounded evaluation, our data construction pipeline integrates detector-assisted regions, depth supervision, metadata-derived rules, extensive manual annotation, blind filtering, and multi-turn human validation, together with task-specific metrics for heterogeneous outputs. Evaluating representative vision-language models across three categories, we show that current models remain far from human-level performance, with pronounced bottlenecks in cross-view association, structured grounding, geometric reasoning, and temporal viewpoint understanding. These results offer empirical guidance for advancing low-altitude UAV spatial intelligence. Code and data are available at https://github.com/Hyu-Zhang/SpatialUAV.

OrthoTryOn: Geometric Orthogonalization for Conflict-Free Unified Fashion Generation

OrthoTryOn:用于无冲突统一时尚生成的几何正交化
Yang, Zhaotong, Tai, Ying, Zhan, Jiahui, Zheng, Yu, Qian, Jianjun, Yang, Jian
Abstract
Unified fashion generation integrates tasks like virtual try-on and garment reconstruction into a single model to reduce task-specific adaptation costs. However, naive parameter sharing across semantically distinct tasks induces negative transfer through severe inter-task gradient conflict. We propose OrthoTryOn, a unified framework mitigating this interference within a shared Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) module. Its Orthogonal Subspace Projection (OSP) applies task-specific orthogonal rotations to bottleneck features, mapping them into decorrelated coordinate frames. To address residual semantic coupling at inference time, we further propose Fisher-guided Negative Guidance (FNG), a parameter-free strategy that utilizes diagonal Fisher information to quantify inter-task sensitivity overlap and explicitly repels generation trajectories from the most confusable task via Classifier-Free Guidance. Extensive experiments demonstrate that OrthoTryOn avoids the severe performance degradation typical of naive unified training and even surpasses independently trained task-specific models, achieving state-of-the-art results across multiple benchmarks while generalizing robustly across diverse diffusion backbones.

A Multi-Attribute Latent Space for Visual Analysis of Watches

用于手表视觉分析的多属性潜在空间
Lawonn, Kai, Günther, Tobias, Meuschke, Monique
Abstract
We present a design rationale, embedding model, and interactive visual-analysis system for exploring large wristwatch collections through heterogeneous visual and semantic attributes. The system addresses a common limitation of catalog and e-commerce interfaces: users can filter by metadata, but they receive little support for open-ended exploration of visual similarity, stylistic alternatives, and mixed aesthetic-functional criteria. We therefore represent watches with separate attribute graphs for dial color and dial design, while using watch type as an explicit semantic organizer. Dials are segmented with a U-Net, watch types are predicted with a Vision Transformer, colors are represented through a shared CIELAB reference palette, and dial structure is described with a gradient-based image descriptor. We extend UMAP by combining attribute-specific neighborhood graphs in a unified probabilistic objective and by adding a class-aware layout term that separates global type structure from local visual neighborhoods. The resulting map is exposed in an interactive interface with spatial navigation, metadata filtering, detail inspection, and search-by-example insertion. We evaluate the approach through parameter analysis, runtime measurements, and a qualitative pilot study with watch experts and novices. The results suggest that the system supports discovery and comparison, while also revealing limitations in scalability assessment, search-by-example validation, and the need for broader domain studies. We explicitly discuss these limitations and derive design implications for multi-attribute latent-space visualization across heterogeneous visual collections.

Long-Term Prediction of Local and Global Human Motion with Occlusion Recovery

局部和全局人类运动的长期预测与遮挡恢复
Yang, Qiaoyue, Heutger, Sven, Niemann, Christopher, Jung, Magnus, Al-Hamadi, Ayoub, Wachsmuth, Sven
Abstract
Human motion describes the three-dimensional full-body movement of a person. Anticipating such motion holds significant relevance across a wide range of application domains such as human-robot interaction, autonomous driving, animation, and healthcare. In recent research, spatial and temporal dependencies are modeled by bidirectional attention mechanisms. These typically anticipate human motion in an autoregressive manner which could cause an accumulation of errors over time. As a consequence, they solely focus on local pose forecasting. To address these limitations, we propose a non-autoregressive transformer based on spatio-temporal attention, and train it not only for local pose anticipation, but also for global motion prediction in space. Furthermore, to enhance its applicability in real-world scenarios, our model is also trained to recover missing joints due to occlusions, and is capable of processing varying lengths of history observations. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/Q-Y-Yang/Prediction-of-Local-and-Global-Human-Motion.

There and Back Again: A Flexible-Frame Transformer for Multi-Exposure Fusion

往返之旅:一种用于多曝光融合的灵活框架变换器
Qu, Lishen, Liu, Yao, Zhou, Shihao, Liang, Jie, Zeng, Hui, Zhang, Lei, Yang, Jufeng
Abstract
Multi-exposure fusion (MEF) brings the dynamic range of conventional cameras closer to that of human vision, producing images with rich scene content. Given the large variability in scene luminance, exposure strategies often require different numbers of frames to capture the full radiance range faithfully. However, conventional MEF techniques are typically designed for a fixed number of inputs, forcing deployment systems to maintain separate models for different frame-count requirements, which undermines deployment efficiency. To address this limitation, we propose FreeMEF, the first flexible-frame transformer for MEF that seamlessly accommodates varying numbers of input exposures without retraining or architectural changes. The proposed approach consists of two key modules. First, we introduce a recurrent state space module (RSSM) that sequentially fuses features from arbitrary sequences via adaptive alignment and state-space recurrent modeling, thereby providing global information guidance for the subsequent restoration. Second, we devise a global feature guided block (GFGB) incorporating an extremity-aware hybrid attention (EAHA) and an affine-injection feed-forward network (AFFN), which effectively resolves the similarity paradox while simultaneously optimizing contrast and brightness regulation. Extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our method, which performs favorably against state-of-the-art methods both quantitatively and qualitatively.

多曝光融合(MEF)使传统相机的动态范围更接近人类视觉,生成具有丰富场景内容的图像。由于场景亮度的巨大变异性,曝光策略通常需要不同数量的帧来忠实捕捉完整的辐射范围。然而,传统的MEF技术通常设计为固定数量的输入,这迫使部署系统为不同的帧数需求维护单独的模型,从而降低了部署效率。为了解决这一限制,我们提出了FreeMEF,这是首个灵活帧变换器,能够无缝适应不同数量的输入曝光,而无需重新训练或架构更改。所提出的方法由两个关键模块组成。首先,我们引入了一个递归状态空间模块(RSSM),通过自适应对齐和状态空间递归建模,顺序融合来自任意序列的特征,从而为后续恢复提供全局信息指导。其次,我们设计了一个全局特征引导块(GFGB),结合了极值感知混合注意力(EAHA)和仿射注入前馈网络(AFFN),有效解决了相似性悖论,同时优化对比度和亮度调节。在三个基准数据集上的大量实验表明,我们的方法在定量和定性上均优于最先进的方法,证明了其有效性。

Every Step of the Way: Video-based Parkinsonian Turning Step Counting

每一步:基于视频的帕金森病转身步数计数
Cheng, Qiushuo, Liu, Jingjing, Morgan, Catherine, Whone, Alan, Mirmehdi, Majid
Abstract
As a prominent symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD), turning impairment is evaluated through parameters such as turning angle, duration, and particularly, the number of steps required to complete a turn, which directly reflects motor dysfunction. Accurate step counting is challenging due to variability in real-world turning movements and atypical shuffling patterns in parkinsonian gait. Existing methods are predominantly wearable-based, requiring users to wear and manage dedicated devices, which can be inconvenient for continuous daily use. To address this, we propose a passive, video-based framework that estimates step count in a coarse-to-fine manner using diverse motion representations. Specifically, an initial step count is estimated from foot movement signals derived from 3D human mesh recovery, providing high-level motion structures. To incorporate fine-grained motion details, a motion encoder learns complementary gait dynamics from mesh and optical flow to refine the initial estimate. In this process, coarse foot movement signals query the pixel-level motion cues via cross attention to capture subtle parkinsonian gait dynamics. To handle varying video lengths, we partition each video into clips and integrate clip-wise motion embeddings via multiple instance learning (MIL) for step count residual prediction. Extensive experiments show our method consistently outperforms existing step counting methods on real-world PD turning datasets.

作为帕金森病(PD)的显著症状,转身障碍通过转身角度、持续时间以及特别是完成转身所需的步数等参数进行评估,这直接反映了运动功能障碍。由于现实世界转身动作的变异性以及帕金森病步态中不典型的拖步模式,准确的步数计数面临挑战。现有方法主要基于可穿戴设备,要求用户佩戴和管理专用设备,这在日常持续使用中可能不够方便。为了解决这一问题,我们提出了一种被动的基于视频的框架,该框架通过多样的运动表示以粗到细的方式估计步数。具体而言,初步步数是通过从3D人类网格恢复中提取的脚部运动信号进行估计,从而提供高层次的运动结构。为了融入细粒度的运动细节,运动编码器从网格和光流中学习互补的步态动态,以细化初步估计。在此过程中,粗略的脚部运动信号通过交叉注意力查询像素级运动线索,以捕捉微妙的帕金森病步态动态。为了处理不同长度的视频,我们将每个视频划分为多个片段,并通过多实例学习(MIL)整合片段级运动嵌入以进行步数残差预测。大量实验表明,我们的方法在真实世界的帕金森病转身数据集上始终优于现有的步数计数方法。

Reflect-R1: Evidence-Driven Reflection for Self-Correction in Long Video Understanding

Reflect-R1:基于证据驱动的长视频理解自我修正反思机制
Chen, Shuimu, Chen, Yuteng, Guan, Yuanshen, Cheng, Zebang, Zhang, Zeyu, Qin, Shengqian, Xia, Bin, Li, Jiaran, Yang, Wenming, Ma, Fei
Abstract
Current multimodal reflection mechanisms for long video understanding predominantly rely on closed-loop self-reflection within internal parameters. Lacking objective external evidence, models are frequently trapped in blind confidence and often fail to correct errors. Furthermore, applying reinforcement learning to multi-stage reflection pipelines introduces severe policy coupling, which is exacerbated by a critical scarcity of dedicated training data. To address these limitations, this work proposes Reflect-R1, the first Evidence-Driven self-correction framework for long video understanding. The framework constructs a three-stage pipeline consisting of intuition, verification, and arbitration. By dynamically retrieving objective visual evidence to verify initial intuitions and autonomously executing multiple temporal searches to resolve conflicts, it completely breaks the hallucination loop. To overcome policy coupling, we design a stage-decoupled reinforcement learning algorithm named SD-GRPO that independently computes advantage functions across different reasoning stages. Concurrently, we construct a dataset of 120K samples to bridge the training data gap. Extensive experiments on benchmarks such as VideoMME and LongVideoBench demonstrate that Reflect-R1 achieves state-of-the-art performance. Our method significantly improves the genuine rectification rate and enables authentic self-correction strictly grounded in objective evidence.

We present Home3D 1.0, a modular image-to-3D generation system that produces high-quality 3D assets from a single reference image, targeting interior design and e-commerce applications. Given a photograph of a furniture or decor item, the system outputs a mesh with physically-based rendering (PBR) materials, and the mesh can be decomposed into material-specific components. The pipeline is organized into four tightly coupled modules: Geometry reconstructs a watertight mesh through latent SDF modelling with a geometry VAE and a coarse-to-fine flow-matching DiT; Texture predicts multiview albedo observations, reprojects them onto the mesh, and completes unseen surface regions with a 3D texture field; Material uses MatWeaver to obtain component masks through video-based segmentation and UV-space voting, then retrieves and bakes PBR maps from a curated material library through hierarchical multi-modal matching; and Parts generates material-editable semantic part meshes with a PartVAE and PartDiT, decoding multi-head part-specific SDF fields in one pass. Each module is evaluated independently with dedicated metrics, highlighting both the current system capability and the remaining gaps toward broader deployment.

Controllable Histopathology Image Synthesis with Training-free Structural Initialization and Textural Modulation

可控的组织病理图像合成:无训练的结构初始化与纹理调制
Qiu, Yuheng, Luo, Jingyi, Ye, Chenfei, Ma, Ting, Cao, Jianfeng
Abstract
Deep learning has demonstrated remarkable success in high-throughput histopathology image analysis. However, the performance of learning-based models critically depends on the quality and size of annotations by expert pathologists, which is a resource-intensive and time-consuming process. To address the limitations of data scarcity and annotation burden, several methods have been proposed to synthesize paired histopathology data. Nevertheless, these frameworks typically still require annotation data, albeit in reduced quantities, to impose structural constraints during training. In this work, we present CHIS, a plug-in framework that guides the sampling trajectory of a pretrained diffusion model through two key stages: structural initialization at the start and textural modulation during generation. The initial noise state is refined by fusing the phase information from a prior mask with the amplitude of Gaussian noise in the frequency domain, yielding a structurally informed starting point. During the reverse diffusion process, we adaptively modulate both coarse-grained and fine-grained textures at different wavelet decomposition levels. This enables a diffusion model pretrained solely on unlabeled images to generate outputs that align with prior structural masks while preserving the reference tissue style. We conducted extensive experiments demonstrating the superiority of CHIS in generation fidelity and its substantial benefits for downstream segmentation tasks. Code is available at https://github.com/IBIL-Code/CHIS.

Understanding How MLLMs Describe Artworks Using Token Activation Maps

理解多模态大型语言模型如何描述艺术作品的标记激活图
Fanelli, Nicola, De Marinis, Pasquale, Scaringi, Raffaele, Cetinic, Eva, Vessio, Gennaro, Castellano, Giovanna
Abstract
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) describe artworks with remarkable fluency, yet the visual reasoning behind their outputs remains opaque. When an MLLM names a style, identifies a subject, or recognizes an iconographic symbol, does it ground each claim in the relevant region of the canvas, draw on an undifferentiated visual signal, or rely primarily on textual priors? We study this using the Token Activation Map (TAM), which produces, for each generated token, a heatmap isolating the visual evidence specific to that token from prior-context interference. Applying TAM to a curated set of paintings spanning multiple periods and genres, we analyze grounding patterns across five semantically distinct token categories: common visual objects, style descriptors, metadata, iconographic tokens, and affective expressions. We find that visual grounding varies substantially with token semantics. We further show that MLLMs attempt to identify artworks and artists, achieving higher accuracy in artist attribution than in title prediction, where hallucinations are more frequent. Finally, we compare TAM with SAM~3 open-vocabulary segmentation. To ensure reproducibility, we release our code, experimental configurations, prompts, and qualitative results on the project page at https://nicolafan.github.io/tamart/.

Directing the World: Fast Autoregressive Video Generation with Compositional Human-Camera Control

引导世界:具有组合人机控制的快速自回归视频生成
Wang, Haoyuan, Chen, Yabo, Huang, Haibin, Zhang, Chi, Li, Xuelong
Abstract
Building interactive world models requires generating realistic videos while maintaining controllable dynamics over long horizons. Autoregressive video generation offers a scalable foundation, but suffers from error accumulation and temporal degradation during extended rollouts. This issue is further amplified under heterogeneous controls such as human motion and camera trajectories, which may interfere and destabilize a pretrained video prior, while existing methods often trade off controllability and visual quality. We propose "Directing the World", a fast autoregressive framework for controllable world-model video generation with compositional human-motion and camera-trajectory control. Our key idea is to decouple control learning while preserving a unified autoregressive video prior. We introduce a Fast-Slow Memory training strategy to stabilize long-horizon rollout learning and improve convergence. For human motion control, we design a t-guided Dynamic Projection mechanism and a refined Motion-CFG strategy, enabling temporally smooth and accurate motion alignment without degrading visual fidelity, and supporting multi-person control.After learning a robust motion prior, we introduce a second-stage camera-trajectory control module to compose human dynamics with viewpoint changes for coherent world exploration. We further construct a large-scale dataset with synchronized video, text, human-motion, and camera-trajectory annotations, organized into motion-centric and camera-centric subsets for decoupled training. Extensive experiments show stable long-horizon generation with precise controllability and high visual quality. See more at https://whydahuzi.github.io/Directing-the-World.github.io/.

ProMSA:Progressive Multimodal Search Agents for Knowledge-Based Visual Question Answering

ProMSA:用于基于知识的视觉问答的渐进式多模态搜索代理
Wu, ZhengXian, Xu, Hangrui, Shi, Kai, Chen, Zhuohong, Yu, Yunyao, Zhang, Chuanrui, Liao, Zirui, Yang, Jun, Yang, Zhenyu, Lu, Haonan, Wang, Haoqian
Abstract
Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering (KB-VQA) requires models to combine image understanding with external knowledge. Most prior methods use a fixed retrieve-then-generate pipeline with a pre-selected retriever and a static top-k setting, which is not adaptive during reasoning. We propose ProMSA, a progressive multimodal search agent for KB-VQA. Given an image-question pair, the agent iteratively chooses image search, text search, or stop, under explicit tool-call budgets and with deduplication to avoid redundant retrieval. For training, we first use rejection-sampling SFT to learn valid tool-use formats, then optimize the agent with TN-GSPO, a sequence-level RL objective that normalizes updates by both generation length and tool-interaction depth. Experiments on E-VQA and InfoSeek show consistent gains over strong RAG and agent baselines, and improved retrieval and end-to-end accuracy. The code is available at https://github.com/DingWu1021/Promsa.

Parallel Rollout Approximation for Pixel-Space Autoregressive Image Generation

像素空间自回归图像生成的并行展开近似
Xu, Jiayi, He, Di, Ke, Guolin
Abstract
Pixel-space continuous-token autoregressive (AR) generation directly models images as sequences of raw pixel patches, avoiding discrete tokenization or a separately pretrained tokenizer. However, it faces coupled challenges: high-dimensional patch generation causes large single-step errors, and teacher-forced training creates a train--inference gap that makes these errors accumulate across AR steps. Existing fixes such as $x$-prediction and input noise injection only partially mitigate these issues. Exact rollout training better matches inference-time conditions, but is impractical due to prohibitively slow sequential sampling. We propose \emph{Parallel Rollout Approximation} (PRA), a scalable framework that addresses both challenges jointly. PRA generates low-dimensional intermediate states instead of high-dimensional pixel patches, then maps them back to pixel-space tokens with a pixel decoder, preserving a pixel-in, pixel-out AR interface. It also constructs inference-like pixel inputs through the same intermediate-state-to-pixel path used at inference, independently across positions, approximating the pixel-feedback interface encountered during inference-time rollout while retaining parallel teacher-forced training. On class-conditional ImageNet-1K generation at $256\times256$ resolution, PRA-S with 135M parameters achieves an FID of 2.58, surpassing the previous billion-scale pixel-space AR result of 3.60. Scaling to PRA-L with 511M parameters further improves FID to 1.94, establishing a new state of the art among pixel-space AR models. Beyond generation, PRA achieves higher ImageNet classification probing accuracy than other AR and diffusion baselines, suggesting its potential for unified pixel-space image generation and understanding.

Latent Visual Diffusion Reasoning with Monte Carlo Tree Search

基于蒙特卡洛树搜索的潜在视觉扩散推理
Teng, Xirui, Xi, Nan, Yuan, Junsong
Abstract
Analyzing fine-grained skill activities (e.g., sports, surgery) requires not only recognizing visual patterns but also performing step-by-step visual reasoning that leads to the final judgment. While recent advances in action quality assessment have achieved remarkable progress in evaluating performance, existing models remain black boxes, where they lack the ability to explicitly reveal the reasoning processes underlying their judgments. To address this limitation, we propose Latent Visual Diffusion Reasoning (LVDR), a novel framework that integrates keypoint-guided Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) to model and visualize the latent visual reasoning process. LVDR not only produces more accurate skill assessments but also uncovers the critical visual reasoning sequences that contribute to the final evaluation. Extensive experiments across four datasets spanning diverse sports and surgical domains demonstrate that LVDR achieves competitive quantitative performance while providing interpretable visual reasoning trajectories leading to the final predictions.

Abstract
Despite the rapid advance of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) in high-level video understanding, a fundamental bottleneck remains: these models collapse complex human motion into coarse semantic labels. Existing benchmarks mostly focus on scene-centric events or local joint articulations, failing to probe global human motion in space over time (trajectory and orientation changes). We introduce HumanMoveVQA, the first comprehensive benchmark designed to evaluate global trajectory and orientation reasoning from an exocentric perspective. Our benchmark utilizes a first-frame anchored world coordinate system, preserving translation and rotation relative to a fixed starting point. We propose a scalable, multi-stage pipeline that lifts 2D video observations into world-consistent 3D motion tracks to generate over 10K structured question-answer pairs across seven reasoning categories, including motion aggregation, sequential ordering, and trajectory-level inference. Our extensive evaluation reveals a critical capability gap in state-of-the-art proprietary models on deep human motion understanding. However, we demonstrate that this is a learnable problem; by fine-tuning an open-source baseline with our targeted, world-consistent supervision, we achieve a significant improvement.HumanMoveVQA establishes a rigorous geometric foundation for developing next-generation, movement-aware video understanding models.

Curriculum-guided Change Detection Training: Toward Accurate Serac Fall Monitoring

课程引导的变化检测训练:朝向准确的冰川崩塌监测
Dérédel, Arthur, Crispim-Junior, Carlos, Lemaire, Pierre, Berthet, Johan, Rodet, Laure Tougne
Abstract
Change Detection (CD) aims to identify semantic or structural changes from nearly registered multi-temporal images. While recent advances in training methodologies have largely focused on semi-supervised learning and consistency regularization, alternative training paradigms remain underexplored. In particular, most deep CD methods rely on uniform sampling during training, implicitly assuming that all training samples contribute equally to the optimization process. However, such naive sampling can introduce noisy gradients and hinder robust representation learning. To address this limitation, we propose a curriculum learning framework tailored for change detection. Our approach investigates two complementary difficulty measures: the Solar Angular Gap (SAG), a physically grounded proxy for acquisition-condition variability, and the Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM), which evaluates appearance similarity between image pairs. Based on these criteria, the framework progressively introduces challenging samples during training, enabling models to learn robust representations in a coarse-to-fine manner. We evaluate our method on the challenging SeracFallDet benchmark, where results demonstrate consistent improvements of the proposed approach over standard uniform-sampling strategies for both pixel-based and object-based approaches. These results highlight the potential of curriculum learning to improve robustness in deep change detection. Importantly, our training framework is orthogonal to existing CD architectures, making it readily applicable to a broad range of methods.

TempAct: Advancing Temporal Plausibility in Autoregressive Video Generation via Planner-Executor RL

TempAct:通过规划者-执行者强化学习推进自回归视频生成中的时间合理性
Wang, Jing, Zhou, Xiangxin, Liang, Jiajun, Liu, Kaiqi, Pang, Wanyun, Xie, Zhenyu, Pang, Tianyu, Liang, Xiaodan
Abstract
Autoregressive (AR) video diffusion models enable low-latency streaming generation by synthesizing videos chunk by chunk with cached visual context, but this chunk-wise formulation makes temporal instruction following ambiguous. A single global prompt does not specify which sub-event should be realized in each chunk, while naively switching to step-wise prompts often leads to delayed reactions, blended step semantics, and error propagation across prompt transitions. These failures are difficult to address with supervised fine-tuning or distillation alone: SFT suffers from exposure bias, while rollout-based distillation still optimizes low-level denoising or teacher-distribution matching rather than directly enforcing action ordering and prompt-transition correctness. We address these challenges with TempAct, a planner--executor reinforcement learning framework that jointly optimizes temporal decomposition and step-conditioned execution for temporally plausible AR video generation. TempAct uses an LLM planner to explore span-aware step prompts that are executable by the video model, and trains an AR diffusion executor to follow these prompts under its own generated histories. Its key mechanism is hierarchical group exploration: candidate plans form planning groups, and each plan induces an execution group of multiple continuations from a shared visual context, enabling plan-level credit assignment for long-horizon temporal outcomes and executor-level credit assignment for prompt-switch behavior. We further design hierarchical rewards that combine plan-quality and full-video temporal feedback for the planner with local transition-level step-following rewards, aesthetic regularization, and KL constraints for the executor.

自回归(AR)视频扩散模型通过逐块合成视频并利用缓存的视觉上下文,实现低延迟流式生成,但这种逐块的形式使得时间指令的跟随变得模糊。单一的全局提示并未明确规定每个块中应实现哪个子事件,而简单地切换到逐步提示往往会导致反应延迟、步骤语义混合以及在提示转换中的错误传播。这些问题仅通过监督微调或蒸馏很难解决:监督微调(SFT)受到曝光偏差的影响,而基于回滚的蒸馏仍然优化低级去噪或教师分布匹配,而不是直接强制执行动作顺序和提示转换的正确性。我们通过TempAct解决这些挑战,这是一种规划者-执行者强化学习框架,联合优化时间分解和步骤条件执行,以实现时间合理的自回归视频生成。TempAct使用大型语言模型(LLM)规划者探索可由视频模型执行的跨度感知步骤提示,并训练自回归扩散执行者在其自身生成的历史下遵循这些提示。其关键机制是层次化组探索:候选计划形成规划组,每个计划诱导出多个来自共享视觉上下文的延续执行组,使得能够对长期时间结果进行计划级的信用分配,并对提示切换行为进行执行者级的信用分配。我们进一步设计了层次化奖励,将计划质量和完整视频时间反馈结合起来,为规划者提供局部转换级的步骤跟随奖励、美学正则化和KL约束。Self-Forcing和LongLive上的实验表明,TempAct在保持整体视觉质量的同时,提高了时间一致性。

EMOSH: Expressive Motion and Shape Disentanglement for Human Animation

EMOSH:用于人类动画的表现性运动与形状解耦
Zhang, Dongbin, Liu, Hao, Dai, Binquan, Chen, Kangjie, Wang, Chuming, Li, Chen, Lyu, Jing, Wang, Haoqian
Abstract
High-fidelity and expressive controllable human animation is essential for content creation and digital avatar applications. However, existing methods face a dilemma between expressiveness and disentanglement. Mainstream 2D pose-conditioned approaches suffer from "motion-shape entanglement", leading to the leakage of the driving subject's body shape. Conversely, methods relying on 3D priors (e.g., SMPL) achieve geometric disentanglement but struggle to capture facial expressions and complex gestures, resulting in rigid animations. To this end, we propose EMOSH, a novel framework for high-fidelity controllable human video generation. First, an Expressive Human Model (EHM) is introduced as the core control representation. By explicitly disentangling shape and pose parameters, we fundamentally resolve the body shape leakage issue. Alongside this, a robust motion tracker is designed to accurately estimate EHM parameters from video. Second, we propose a Coarse-to-Fine Hybrid Motion Injection strategy, enabling more fine-grained control over expressions and gestures. Furthermore, we introduce a Spatially-Aligned Conditioning mechanism to bridge the domain gap between training and inference, improving identity consistency. Extensive experiments demonstrate that EMOSH outperforms previous methods in both self-driven and cross-driven scenarios, producing high-fidelity videos with vivid expressions while maintaining shape disentanglement.

高保真且可控的表现性人类动画对于内容创作和数字化身应用至关重要。然而,现有方法在表现性与解耦之间面临困境。主流的基于2D姿态的条件方法遭受“运动-形状纠缠”的问题,导致驱动主体的身体形状泄漏。相反,依赖于3D先验(例如,SMPL)的方法能够实现几何解耦,但在捕捉面部表情和复杂手势方面存在困难,导致动画僵硬。为此,我们提出了EMOSH,一个用于高保真可控人类视频生成的新框架。首先,引入表现性人类模型(EHM)作为核心控制表示。通过明确解耦形状和姿态参数,我们从根本上解决了身体形状泄漏的问题。同时,设计了一种强大的运动追踪器,以准确估计视频中的EHM参数。其次,我们提出了一种粗到细的混合运动注入策略,使得对表情和手势的控制更加细致。此外,我们引入了一种空间对齐条件机制,以弥合训练与推理之间的领域差距,提高身份一致性。大量实验表明,EMOSH在自驱动和交叉驱动场景中均优于之前的方法,生成高保真的视频,展现生动的表情,同时保持形状解耦。

Mind the Gap: Quantifying the Domain Gap in Cross-Sensor Diffusion Super-Resolution

注意差距:量化跨传感器扩散超分辨率中的领域差距
Kopeć, Dawid, Jabłońska, Katarzyna, Kozłowski, Wojciech, Zięba, Maciej
Abstract
Demand for high-resolution satellite imagery has increased interest in super-resolution (SR) to bridge the spatial resolution gap between freely available missions such as Sentinel-2 and commercial systems like PlanetScope. Because no sensor provides true paired low- and high-resolution observations, SR models are usually trained on synthetically degraded data, creating a domain gap on real cross-sensor imagery. In this work, we provide the first systematic study of how this synthetic-to-real mismatch affects the performance of modern diffusion-based SR models. Using a large, geometrically and temporally aligned dataset of Sentinel-2 and PlanetScope imagery, we evaluate five state-of-the-art diffusion architectures under controlled experimental settings. We also introduce LPIPS-Sat, a domain-adapted perceptual metric based on Sentinel-2 self-supervised features. Our results show two persistent challenges: synthetically trained models degrade sharply on real pairs, while models trained on real cross-sensor data exhibit optimisation difficulties and struggle to adapt to the physical and radiometric diversity. These findings highlight a key limitation of current SR and motivate methods that disentangle super-resolution from domain adaptation.

AirGroundBench: Probing Spatial Intelligence in Multimodal Large Models under Heterogeneous Multi-View Embodied Collaboration

AirGroundBench:在异构多视角具身协作中探测多模态大模型的空间智能
Li, Haotian, Wang, Yida, Wang, Leyuan, Lai, Jinshan, Wang, Keyang, Guo, Zonghao, Ma, Qiang, Xiang, Liuyu, Hu, Jianwei, He, Zhaofeng
Abstract
In recent years, multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown strong potential for embodied intelligence, yet their ability to maintain geometrically consistent spatial understanding across heterogeneous views remains under-evaluated. Existing benchmarks largely focus on single-agent, single-view perception, leaving a gap in the systematic assessment of collaborative air-ground settings, where multi-scale observations are complementary but introduce scale mismatch, asymmetric occlusion, and reference-frame inconsistencies. We present AirGroundBench, a diagnostic benchmark for evaluating multi-view spatial intelligence in heterogeneous UAV-UGV collaboration. AirGroundBench is built from 11 high-fidelity simulated environments with 1,021 synchronized air-ground observation pairs, yielding approximately 62,000 dual-view, four-option single-choice visual question answering instances and 115 closed-loop vision-language navigation episodes. It covers 10 task types organized into four progressively demanding capability dimensions: spatial perception, cross-view alignment, spatial transformation and reasoning, and embodied decision-making. To support geometry-grounded evaluation and analysis, we provide structured spatial annotations, including cross-view object identities and metric 2D and 3D bounding boxes. Evaluations of 13 representative MLLMs under UAV-only, UGV-only, and dual-view input settings reveal consistent bottlenecks: models perform relatively well on spatial perception but struggle with cross-view alignment and transformation-intensive reasoning, and these deficits propagate to sequential decision-making in vision-language navigation. Although dual-view inputs provide measurable gains over single-view variants, a persistent gap from human performance remains, highlighting geometric consistency as a key limitation of current embodied MLLMs.

近年来,多模态大语言模型(MLLMs)展现出强大的具身智能潜力,但它们在异构视角下保持几何一致的空间理解能力仍然未得到充分评估。现有基准测试主要集中于单代理、单视角感知,导致在系统评估协作空地环境方面存在空白,在这些环境中,多尺度观察是互补的,但引入了尺度不匹配、非对称遮挡和参考框架不一致等问题。我们提出了AirGroundBench,这是一个用于评估异构无人机-地面车辆(UAV-UGV)协作中的多视角空间智能的诊断基准。AirGroundBench基于11个高保真模拟环境构建,包含1,021对同步的空地观察,生成约62,000个双视角、四选一的单项选择视觉问答实例和115个闭环视觉-语言导航情节。它涵盖了10种任务类型,组织为四个逐步提升的能力维度:空间感知、跨视角对齐、空间变换与推理,以及具身决策。为了支持基于几何的评估和分析,我们提供了结构化的空间注释,包括跨视角的物体身份和度量2D及3D边界框。在仅使用无人机、仅使用地面车辆和双视角输入设置下对13个代表性MLLM的评估揭示了一致的瓶颈:模型在空间感知上表现相对良好,但在跨视角对齐和变换密集的推理上存在困难,这些缺陷在视觉-语言导航中的顺序决策中得以延续。尽管双视角输入相较于单视角变体提供了可测量的提升,但与人类表现之间仍存在持续的差距,突显了几何一致性是当前具身MLLMs的一个关键限制。

ReScene: Structured Indoor Scene Reconstruction from Multi-View Captures

ReScene:基于多视角捕捉的结构化室内场景重建
Xu, Haoran, Zhang, Lechao, Dong, Daoguo, Gao, Yan, Tan, Xin
Abstract
Constructing simulation-ready 3D scenes from multi-view captures is a key bottleneck for Embodied Artificial Intelligence, as downstream tasks require object-level structure, explicit inter-object relations, and physical plausibility. Existing approaches either rely on specialized capture hardware, suffer from single-view bias in object reconstruction, or yield layouts that are geometrically reasonable but physically inconsistent. We identify that the problem is not single-object reconstruction but cross-view relation fusion and physically plausible scene assembly. To address this challenge, we present ReScene, a framework that threads multi-view geometry throughout the pipeline as a unifying prior. Our method consists of two main components: HierView prioritizes reconstruction views based on semantic consistency and 3D coverage completeness, replacing the largest-mask heuristic that conflates image occupancy with object coverage; and Relation-Aware Assembly fuses multi-frame relation predictions from a vision-language model with geometric and room-shell priors into a confidence-weighted scene graph, enabling physically consistent scene assembly. ReScene sets a new state of the art across geometry, rendering, and perceptual quality on a set of ScanNet scenes, achieving a 17% reduction in Chamfer Distance and 26% in LPIPS over the strongest prior baseline, while running up to 10x faster than prior multi-view methods. Based on the reconstructed scenes, we also generate an embodied visual question answering dataset, on which fine-tuned Qwen-VL approaches the performance of strong closed-source models on several spatial reasoning tasks.

从多视角捕捉构建适用于仿真的3D场景是具身人工智能的一个关键瓶颈,因为下游任务需要对象级结构、明确的对象间关系和物理合理性。现有的方法要么依赖于专用捕捉硬件,要么在对象重建中受到单视角偏差的影响,或者产生几何上合理但物理上不一致的布局。我们发现问题不在于单个对象的重建,而在于跨视角关系的融合和物理上合理的场景组装。为了解决这一挑战,我们提出了ReScene,一个在整个流程中将多视角几何作为统一先验的框架。我们的方法由两个主要组件组成:HierView根据语义一致性和3D覆盖完整性优先选择重建视图,替代了将图像占用与对象覆盖混淆的最大掩模启发式;而Relation-Aware Assembly则将来自视觉-语言模型的多帧关系预测与几何和房间外壳先验融合成一个加权信心场景图,从而实现物理一致的场景组装。ReScene在一组ScanNet场景上设定了几何、渲染和感知质量的新技术水平,相较于最强的先前基线,Chamfer距离减少了17%,LPIPS减少了26%,同时运行速度比先前的多视角方法快了最多10倍。基于重建的场景,我们还生成了一个具身视觉问答数据集,在该数据集上微调的Qwen-VL在多个空间推理任务上接近强闭源模型的性能。

TextDS: Parameter-Efficient Representation Alignment for Scene Text Detection under Distribution Shifts

TextDS:在分布变化下进行场景文本检测的参数高效表示对齐

Abstract
In real-world deployments, scene text detectors inevitably face distribution shifts beyond the training distribution. Prior work often depends on large-scale scene-text pretraining, yet evaluation under cross-domain changes and real-world imaging degradations remains limited. We propose TextDS, an efficient framework for scene text detection under distribution shifts. First, we propose a data-efficient dual-encoder design with visual foundation models, eliminating the reliance on large-scale scene-text pretraining. Second, we introduce Step-wise LoRA adaptation (SWLoRA), which performs progressive low-rank refinement with a dynamic early-exit mechanism for effective feature adaptation. Third, we propose Common Subspace Fusion (CSF) to align and fuse the two branches in a shared subspace while retaining complementary, shift-robust information. Finally, we construct adverse-condition scene text detection datasets to address the gap in evaluating under imaging degradation. Experiments show that TextDS achieves competitive performance in scene text detection, demonstrating robustness across domains and adverse imaging conditions with only 4.9M trainable parameters.

STAG: Spatio-temporal Evolving Structural Representation of Action Units for Micro-expression Recognition

STAG:用于微表情识别的时空演变结构表示的动作单元
Sharma, Nandani, Sharma, Varun, Singh, Dinesh
Abstract
Micro-expression recognition is challenging due to subtle and short-lived facial muscle movements. Existing methods rely heavily on apex-onset frames, overlook fine-grained inter-frame dynamics, and separately model spatial and temporal information, limiting generalization across datasets. To address these challenges, we propose STAG, a dynamic ROI-AU-coupled spatial-temporal network that jointly models motion flow and adaptive facial connectivity. The framework extracts optical flow from discriminative frames using magnitude-based selection and temporal attention. A dual-branch architecture combines an enhanced graph attention network for structured spatial reasoning with a transformer encoder for temporal modeling. A bidirectional cross-attention module enables mutual refinement of spatial and temporal features, while AU-guided dynamic connectivity adapts facial region interactions according to muscle activation patterns. The transformer captures subtle temporal dynamics beyond apex-based approaches, improving semantic consistency and interpretability for explainable micro-expression recognition. The fused representation is optimized using focal loss and evaluated on CASME II, 4DME, DFME, NaME, SAMM, and SMIC-HS. Extensive experiments demonstrate improved robustness, generalization, interpretability, and computational efficiency, confirming the effectiveness of adaptive relational reasoning, AU-guided dynamic connectivity, and deep spatial-temporal feature fusion for accurate cross-dataset micro-expression recognition.

RPM-Distill: Physiology-guided Adaptive Cross-modal Distillation for Robust Remote Physiological Measurement

RPM-Distill:基于生理学指导的自适应跨模态蒸馏用于稳健的远程生理测量
Wang, Jiyao, Hu, Qingyong, Tang, Duoxun, Yang, Xiao, Wu, Kaishun, Yu, Jiangbo
Abstract
Video-based remote physiological measurement (RPM) is highly accessible but remains fragile under varying illumination, skin tones, and motion. Radio frequency (RF) radar is largely invariant to illumination and appearance, providing complementary cardio-respiratory micro-motion cues; however, requiring radar at inference is often impractical due to its limited ubiquity and deployment overhead. We propose RPM-Distill, a physiology-guided cross-modal distillation framework that leverages synchronized radar only during training while retaining video-only inference. Our key observation is that although RGB and RF waveforms differ in sensing physics and time-domain morphology, they share similar latent periodic rhythm in the frequency domain. We thus distill physiology-structured spectral evidence to improve robustness, via losses that (i) anchor the fundamental peak, (ii) match the off-peak background distribution, and (iii) preserve spectral morphology and sharpness. To avoid negative transfer under sample-level teacher quality and alignment uncertainty, a spectral policy network predicts sample-level distillation gates and component weights from the student--teacher spectral relation map, learned with a meta bilevel objective on a small labeled validation split. Through extensive experiments in challenging conditions and cross-dataset settings, RPM-Distill brings 81\% MAE and 21\% correlation improvement over unimodal baselines.

Diffusion Model Attribution via Spectral Coupling of Denoiser Responses

通过去噪响应的谱耦合进行扩散模型归属
Meshram, Pragati Shuddhodhan, Chandrasekaran, Varun
Abstract
Attributing a generated image to its source diffusion model is a fundamental challenge in provenance verification and intellectual property protection. This problem is particularly difficult because diffusion models trained on different datasets can converge to similar score functions and thus similar output distributions, making the generated images themselves unreliable as attribution evidence. Existing non-invasive methods either fail on architecturally similar variants or rely on signals that vanish when models share the same autoencoder. We propose Spectral Denoising Signatures (SDS), a non-invasive attribution method that identifies the source model by fingerprinting each candidate model's denoising behavior. Our key insight is that a model's denoising score function exhibits a distinctive spectral geometry, reflected in how it redistributes energy across spatial frequency bands during denoising. By probing this behavior with frequency-controlled perturbations, SDS extracts a stable signature that is intrinsic to the model, requiring only standard forward passes with no inversion, optimization, or generation-time enrollment. Our results demonstrate that SDS achieves approximately 99.9% accuracy across eight diverse diffusion models and 96.2% under cross-domain prompt shift, outperforming non-invasive baselines across variations in training data, architecture, and training procedure, establishing spectral geometry as a principled and practical basis for diffusion model attribution.

将生成的图像归属到其源扩散模型是来源验证和知识产权保护中的一个基本挑战。这个问题尤其困难,因为在不同数据集上训练的扩散模型可能会收敛到相似的评分函数,从而导致相似的输出分布,使得生成的图像本身作为归属证据变得不可靠。现有的非侵入性方法要么在架构相似的变体上失败,要么依赖于在模型共享相同自编码器时消失的信号。我们提出了谱去噪签名(Spectral Denoising Signatures, SDS),这是一种非侵入性归属方法,通过指纹识别每个候选模型的去噪行为来识别源模型。我们的关键见解是,模型的去噪评分函数表现出独特的谱几何特征,这体现在其在去噪过程中如何在空间频率带之间重新分配能量。通过使用频率控制的扰动来探测这种行为,SDS提取出一种稳定的签名,该签名是模型固有的,仅需标准的前向传递,无需反演、优化或生成时的注册。我们的结果表明,SDS在八个不同的扩散模型上实现了约99.9%的准确率,在跨域提示转移下为96.2%,在训练数据、架构和训练过程的变化中超越了非侵入性基线,确立了谱几何作为扩散模型归属的原则性和实用基础。代码可在以下链接获取:https://github.com/Pragati-Meshram/SGS

OSOR: One-Step Diffusion Inpainting for Effect-Aware Object Removal

OSOR:一种一步扩散修复的效果感知对象移除方法
Zhou, Qinming, Sun, Chenxi, Kong, Deyang, He, Junhao, Tang, Xiangheng, Yu, Peike, Wu, Haotian, Cao, Leilei, Zhang, Linfeng
Abstract
Real-world object removal is challenging due to two key difficulties: the target object's non-local effects, such as shadows and reflections, which are difficult to model, and the fact that user-provided masks are often inaccurate or incomplete. With billions of parameters and tens of denoising steps, diffusion-based models achieve strong removal performance at the expense of substantial computational cost, limiting their use in interactive applications and on edge devices. To address these challenges, we present OSOR (One-Step Object Removal), which simultaneously achieves efficient, effect-aware, and mask-robust object removal. Concretely, OSOR introduces: (1) an occupancy-guided discriminator for precise boundary supervision, enabling stable single-step diffusion training; (2) an alpha head that leverages knowledge from pretrained diffusion models to predict appropriate removal regions with minimal overhead, thereby handling imperfect masks; and (3) a semantic-anchored verification pipeline (SAVP) that filters noisy instruction-based triplets to produce effect-aware supervision at scale. Using SAVP, we curate CORNE, which contains 280K verified removal pairs, and further annotate AnimeEraseBench and TextEraseBench to evaluate performance on more complex removal tasks. Experiments show that OSOR surpasses strong multi-step diffusion baselines in perceptual quality while achieving $4\times$ to $30\times$ faster inference.

Cross-view Multimodal Vision-Based Assessment Framework for Traditional Chinese Medicine Rehabilitation Training

基于跨视角多模态视觉的传统中医康复训练评估框架
Zhang, Francis Xiatian, Yao, Hao, Chen, Shengxuan, Zhu, Hong, Jia, Hongxiao, Zheng, Sisi, Shum, Hubert P. H.
Abstract
Vision-based assessment can provide convenient and cost-effective evaluation in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) rehabilitation training, where action quality assessment (AQA) from computer vision offers a promising solution. Existing automatic AQA frameworks for physical therapy typically rely on skeletal data captured from a single viewpoint, which is inefficient for TCM techniques such as acupuncture or Tuina that involve dense hand self-occlusion and complex hand-object interactions. To address these challenges, we propose CME-AQA, a cross-view, multimodal vision-based assessment framework that integrates visual-pose fusion to enhance understanding of environmental context and leverages both first-person and third-person videos during training to improve inference robustness. We collected two dual-view datasets, TCM-AQA61-A (Acupuncture) and TCM-AQA61-T (Tuina), each containing synchronized first-person and third-person recordings of 61 subjects with expert annotations. Experimental results show that our approach achieves superior or comparable mean performance against competitive baselines, achieving over 10% relative improvement in weighted F1 over the best competing method on key rating tasks such as Needle Depth and Quick Needle Insertion, while also reducing mean absolute error in quantitative measures such as insertion time and manipulation frequency. Testing on a CPR dataset further demonstrates comparable performance on several posture-based criteria, suggesting applicability to related structured simulated clinical skill assessments where participant motion is central to evaluation. Overall, CME-AQA enhances assessment accuracy for structured TCM rehabilitation training and facilitates more convenient and effective training-oriented skill evaluation.

BiDeMem: Bidirectional Degradation Memory for Explainable Image Restoration

BiDeMem:用于可解释图像恢复的双向退化记忆
Wu, Xinrui, Huang, Lichen
Abstract
Degradation-aware prompts, conditions, and latent priors are increasingly used in image restoration, yet they are usually judged by a single endpoint: whether the restored image obtains higher PSNR. This is a weak test of semantics. A condition can help by adding capacity, acting as a global correction bias, or exploiting dataset shortcuts, without becoming an interpretable degradation prior. We propose BiDeMem, a bidirectional degradation memory for explainable image restoration. A query built from restoration features and input statistics retrieves a compact top-k subset of memory slots. The same selected slot identity supports the restoration path at inference time and a training-only forward-degradation explanation path. The study centers on verifiability in a controlled multi-degradation NAFNet setting. New controls separate the gain from a correction head alone, a dense query prior, and a static global prior: these variants are 0.2588, 0.2586, and 0.2839 dB below BiRank, respectively. Strong residual supervision and a wider degradation head also remain below the full bidirectional memory model. Intervention probes show that BiRank preserves restoration quality while increasing wrong-prior and native-prior sensitivity, framing degradation memory as both a restoration module and a falsifiable explanation mechanism.

Abstract
Video generation models have emerged as a promising paradigm for embodied world simulation. However, both general-domain video generators and robot-specific data fine-tuned models can still produce physically implausible manipulations, including discontinuous motion trajectories and inconsistent robot-object interactions, which limits their reliability as world simulators. Through extensive experiments, we find that such physical instability mainly arises from two factors: deformation of moving objects and implausible spatio-temporal correlations among interacting entities, particularly during contact. Building on this observation, we propose PhysisForcing, a scalable training framework that strengthens physical consistency by focusing supervision on physics-informative regions through joint optimization of pixel-level and semantic-level features. The framework consists of a pixel-level trajectory alignment loss, which supervises DiT features using reference point trajectories, and a semantic-level relational alignment loss, which aligns DiT features with inter-region relations extracted from a frozen video understanding encoder. Extensive experiments on R-Bench, PAI-Bench, and EZS-Bench show that PhysisForcing consistently improves embodied video generation over strong baselines, improving the Wan2.2-I2V-A14B and Cosmos3-Nano base models on R-Bench by 22.3\% and 9.2\% (7.1\% and 3.7\% over vanilla finetuning), with the Cosmos3-Nano variant attaining the best overall score. Beyond generation, as a world model under the WorldArena action-planner protocol it raises the closed-loop success rate from 16.0\% to 24.0\% and further improves downstream policy success, indicating that physically aligned video models yield stronger representations for robotic manipulation.

视频生成模型已成为具身世界模拟的有希望的范式。然而,无论是通用领域的视频生成器还是针对机器人特定数据进行微调的模型,仍然可能产生不符合物理规律的操作,包括不连续的运动轨迹和不一致的机器人与物体的交互,这限制了它们作为世界模拟器的可靠性。通过大量实验,我们发现这种物理不稳定性主要源于两个因素:移动物体的变形以及交互实体之间不合理的时空关联,特别是在接触期间。基于这一观察,我们提出了PhysisForcing,一个可扩展的训练框架,通过对物理信息区域的重点监督,结合像素级和语义级特征的联合优化,增强物理一致性。该框架包括一个像素级轨迹对齐损失,它使用参考点轨迹监督DiT特征,以及一个语义级关系对齐损失,它将DiT特征与从冻结的视频理解编码器提取的区域间关系对齐。在R-Bench、PAI-Bench和EZS-Bench上的大量实验表明,PhysisForcing在强基线之上始终提高了具身视频生成,在R-Bench上将Wan2.2-I2V-A14B和Cosmos3-Nano基础模型的性能分别提高了22.3\%和9.2\%(相较于普通微调提高了7.1\\%和3.7\\%),其中Cosmos3-Nano变体获得了最佳整体得分。超越生成,作为WorldArena行动规划协议下的世界模型,它将闭环成功率从16.0\\%提高到24.0\\%,并进一步改善下游策略的成功率,这表明物理对齐的视频模型为机器人操作提供了更强的表征。

Abstract
Reconstructing high-fidelity, relightable 3D avatars from a single in-the-wild image is a challenging ill-posed problem, primarily hindered by the scarcity of high-quality PBR data and the complexity of disentangling illumination from intrinsic materials. In this paper, we present a data-efficient framework that leverages the robust priors of a unified pre-trained diffusion backbone to sequentially address texture completion, delighting, and material decomposition. Unlike existing methods that rely on fragmented pipelines or extensive proprietary datasets, we utilize cascaded Low-Rank Adaptations (LoRAs) to adapt the strong generative prior of the diffusion model for each sub-task in UV space. Specifically, we first employ an Inpainting LoRA to complete missing UV textures caused by occlusion, leveraging the model's semantic understanding to generate semantically and photometrically coherent details. Subsequently, a Light-Homogenization LoRA and a novel Cross-Intrinsic Attention mechanism are introduced to remove baked-in lighting and collaboratively synthesize pixel-aligned PBR maps (Albedo, Normal, Roughness, Specular, and Displacement). To ensure physical plausibility, we impose a UV-space differentiable BRDF shading loss during the decomposition stage, forcing the generative process to adhere to the rendering equation without the artifacts typical of rasterization-based supervision. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method, trained on fewer than 100 real 3D scans, generates comprehensive, 4K-resolution PBR assets with superior realism and generalization compared to state-of-the-art methods, and all training code and model weights will be released upon acceptance.

Toward Robust In-Context Segmentation via Concept Guidance

通过概念引导实现稳健的上下文分割
Chen, Zhigang, Zheng, Xiawu, Ji, Rongrong
Abstract
In-context segmentation (ICS) requires a model to segment target regions in a query image using only a few reference images and their corresponding masks, without updating any parameters. Despite recent progress, prior ICS studies have largely overlooked a critical aspect: system robustness, ie, whether the model can produce stable segmentation results for the same query under different references. In this work, we revisit ICS from the robustness perspective and introduce a novel paradigm, Concept-Guided In-Context Segmentation (CG-ICS), which performs segmentation by extracting high-level semantic concepts from references rather than relying solely on low-level visual matching. Specifically, CG-ICS introduces a concept reasoning module that uses an MLLM to propose candidates and a SAM3-driven scoring function with tree-search refinement to select reliable textual concepts, together with a parallel visual exemplar route that provides query-side spatial grounding via a simple context construction. Both the textual concept and the visual exemplar are then used to activate the segmentation capability of a frozen SAM3 backbone. Extensive experiments on standard ICS benchmarks demonstrate that CG-ICS not only achieves state-of-the-art accuracy but also substantially improves robustness, yielding a more reliable ICS system with significantly reduced variance across diverse reference choices.

上下文分割(ICS)要求模型在不更新任何参数的情况下,仅使用少量参考图像及其对应的掩膜来对查询图像中的目标区域进行分割。尽管近期取得了一些进展,但以往的ICS研究在很大程度上忽视了一个关键方面:系统的稳健性,即模型在不同参考下是否能够为相同查询产生稳定的分割结果。在本研究中,我们从稳健性的角度重新审视ICS,并提出了一种新颖的范式——概念引导上下文分割(CG-ICS),该方法通过从参考中提取高层语义概念而非仅依赖低层视觉匹配来进行分割。具体而言,CG-ICS引入了一个概念推理模块,该模块使用多模态大语言模型(MLLM)提出候选概念,并结合树搜索优化的评分函数来选择可靠的文本概念,同时提供一个并行的视觉示例路径,通过简单的上下文构建为查询侧提供空间基础。文本概念和视觉示例随后被用来激活冻结的SAM3主干的分割能力。在标准ICS基准上的大量实验表明,CG-ICS不仅实现了最先进的准确性,而且显著提高了稳健性,提供了一个在多样化参考选择中具有显著降低方差的更可靠的ICS系统。

EchoSonar-R: A Multi-View Reasoning-Enabled Model for Disease Classification and Report Generation in Echocardiography

EchoSonar-R:一种支持多视角推理的心脏病分类与报告生成模型
Taratynova, Darya, Aly, Ahmed, Saeed, Numan, Yaqub, Mohammad
Abstract
Echocardiography is the most widely used non-invasive cardiac imaging modality, providing essential information for cardiovascular diagnosis. Interpreting an echocardiogram requires synthesizing complementary evidence across multiple heart views to identify abnormalities and produce structured clinical reports. While recent efforts focus on improving classification performance, most models lack explicit diagnostic reasoning and spatially grounded anatomical evidence, limiting clinician trust. We present EchoSonar-R, a multi-view reasoning-enabled vision-language model that jointly performs multi-label disease classification and report generation from echocardiography studies. EchoSonar-R combines a spatiotemporal video encoder with a structure-aware cardiac detector that provides spatially grounded anatomical cues to improve interpretability and clinician trust during cross-view reasoning. EchoSonar-R is trained in two stages: supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on reasoning-annotated targets, followed by Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) with task-specific rewards that jointly align classification and report generation within a unified reinforcement-learning framework. Across a private multi-view dataset and two public benchmarks, EchoSonar-R improves macro balanced accuracy by 17.1% on the private set and 6.1% on MIMICEchoQA over the strongest baseline, achieves a GREEN clinical faithfulness score of 0.800, and produces interpretable reasoning traces grounded in multi-view visual evidence.

HAT-4D: Lifting Monocular Video for 4D Multi-Object Interactions via Human-Agent Collaboration

HAT-4D:通过人机协作提升单目视频中的4D多物体交互

Abstract
Extracting dynamic 4D object interactions from massive, in-the-wild monocular videos offers a highly efficient data collection pathway for scaling Embodied AI and training VLAs. However, existing monocular 4D reconstruction methods primarily focus on isolated objects, often failing under the severe occlusions and complex dynamics inherent in multi-object interactions. To bridge this gap, we propose HAT-4D, the first agentic framework designed to reconstruct the 3D geometry, temporal dynamics, and physical interactions of multiple objects from a single video. By integrating VLMs with a multi-level human-in-the-loop feedback mechanism, HAT-4D efficiently resolves depth ambiguities and interaction-induced occlusions during 3D generation and 4D propagation, yielding physically plausible assets without relying on expensive multicamera rigs. As a scalable data engine, HAT-4D facilitates the creation of MVOIK-4D, an open-world benchmark for monocular 4D interaction reconstruction, accompanied by a novel multi-dimensional evaluation protocol focused on physical plausibility and temporal consistency. Extensive experiments demonstrate that HAT-4D achieves SOTA performance on most evaluation metrics, while maintaining competitive semantic alignment. Ablation studies show that introducing a small amount of human feedback improves interaction reconstruction. Moreover, the data produced by HAT-4D effectively improves baseline performance when used for fine-tuning. Our data and code are available at https://lijiaxin0111.github.io/HAT4D/

Exposure Bias Can Alleviate Itself via Directional and Frequency Rectification in Flow Matching

曝光偏差可以通过方向和频率校正在流匹配中自我缓解
Huang, Guanbo, Mao, Jingjia, Huang, Fanding, Liu, Fengkai, Luo, Xiangyang, Liang, Yaoyuan, Lu, Jiasheng, Wang, Xiaoe, Liu, Pei, Fu, Ruiliu, Huang, Ruqi, Huang, Shao-Lun
Abstract
Flow Matching (FM) has achieved remarkable generative performance, yet it suffers from exposure bias due to discrepancies between training and inference. Existing mitigation strategies typically rely on static constraints or external heuristics. In this work, we propose that exposure bias itself inherently contains dynamic signals that can guide its own rectification. To leverage this, we introduce DEFAR (DirEctional-Frequency Adaptive Rectification). This framework simulates the single-step inference process during training to identify exposure bias. It utilizes directional and frequency-adaptive feedback signals from the bias itself to enhance the model's bias tolerance. It consists of two key components: (1) Anti-Drift Rectification (ADR). ADR treats inference-time drift as a signal to learn the direction to steer deviated states back toward the target. ADR endows the model with intrinsic active self-rectification capabilities; (2) Frequency Compensation (FC). Empirically, we observe that accumulated bias often stems from a lack of low-frequency components in high-noise stages, and exposure bias carries the missing frequency. FC leverages the bias itself as a self-feedback weighting factor to reinforce the missing frequency components. Experiments on CIFAR-10, CelebA-64, and ImageNet-256/512 show that DEFAR outperforms prior baselines and further demonstrates favorable scalability, compatibility, and inference robustness.

流匹配(Flow Matching, FM)已实现显著的生成性能,但由于训练与推理之间的差异,它面临曝光偏差的问题。现有的缓解策略通常依赖于静态约束或外部启发式方法。在本研究中,我们提出曝光偏差本身内在地包含动态信号,可以指导其自我校正。为此,我们引入了DEFAR(方向-频率自适应校正)。该框架在训练期间模拟单步推理过程,以识别曝光偏差。它利用来自偏差本身的方向性和频率自适应反馈信号来增强模型的偏差容忍度。该框架由两个关键组件组成:(1)抗漂移校正(Anti-Drift Rectification, ADR)。ADR将推理时的漂移视为信号,以学习将偏离状态引导回目标的方向。ADR赋予模型内在的主动自我校正能力;(2)频率补偿(Frequency Compensation, FC)。经验表明,累积偏差通常源于高噪声阶段缺乏低频成分,而曝光偏差携带着缺失的频率。FC利用偏差本身作为自反馈加权因子,以增强缺失的频率成分。在CIFAR-10、CelebA-64和ImageNet-256/512上的实验表明,DEFAR的表现优于之前的基线,并进一步展示了良好的可扩展性、兼容性和推理鲁棒性。

RSICCLLM: A Multimodal Large Language Model for Remote Sensing Image Change Captioning

RSICCLLM:一种用于遥感图像变化描述的多模态大语言模型
Wang, Yelin, Song, Zijia, Ye, Shuo, Yang, Chuanguang, Wang, Miaoyu, Xu, Yong, An, Zhulin, Xu, Yongjun, Yu, Zitong
Abstract
Remote Sensing Image Change Captioning (RSICC) aims to describe changes between bi-temporal remote sensing images and holds significant research and application value. However, most existing methods rely on conventional deep learning architectures, and the limited model capacity constrains performance. Although large-model post-training techniques have achieved great success in general domains, their direct transfer to RSICC remains challenging due to data scarcity and the need for fine-grained change understanding. To address this, we propose RSICCLLM, the first post-training framework for large vision-language models in RSICC. Specifically, we design a data generation paradigm, release the instruction dataset RSICI, and establish a task-specific RSICC benchmark. We further introduce Difference-aware Supervised Fine-tuning to explicitly extract change representations and guide the model in perceiving and understanding temporal differences. In addition, we propose Dual-Negative Preference Optimization (DNPO), which employs two complementary negative-sample construction strategies to construct the preference dataset RSICP and further refine model performance. Extensive experiments validate the superior capability of RSICCLLM, which achieves outstanding results with only 7B parameters, surpassing models of substantially larger scales. The code and dataset will be made publicly available at https://github.com/keaill/RSICCLLM.

Learning Topology-Aware Representations via Test-Time Adaptation for Anomaly Segmentation

通过测试时适应学习拓扑感知表示用于异常分割
Zia, Ali, Ali, Usman, Rehman, Abdul, Ramzan, Umer, Han, Kang, Faheem, Muhammad, Qureshi, Shahnawaz, Xiang, Wei
Abstract
Test-time adaptation (TTA) has emerged as a promising paradigm for mitigating distribution shifts in deep models. However, existing TTA approaches for anomaly segmentation remain limited by their reliance on pixel-level heuristics, such as confidence thresholding or entropy minimisation, which fail to preserve structural consistency under noise and texture variation. Moreover, they typically treat anomaly maps as flat intensity fields, ignoring the higher-order spatial relationships that characterise complex defect geometries. We introduce TopoTTA (Topological Test-Time Adaptation), a novel framework that integrates persistent homology, a tool from topological data analysis, into the TTA pipeline to enforce geometric and structural coherence during adaptation. By applying multi-level cubical complex filtration to anomaly score maps, TopoTTA derives robust topological pseudo-labels that guide a lightweight test-time classifier, enhancing segmentation quality without retraining the backbone model. The approach avoids reliance on method-specific raw-score thresholding for mask binarisation, preserves connectivity, and generalises across both 2D and 3D modalities. Extensive experiments across six standard benchmarks (MVTec AD, VisA, Real-IAD, MVTec 3D-AD, AnomalyShapeNet, and MVTec LOCO) demonstrate an average 15% F1 improvement over state-of-the-art unsupervised anomaly detection and segmentation methods, with the largest gains on anomalies exhibiting complex geometric or structural variations. These findings suggest that integrating topological reasoning into test-time adaptation provides a principled route to structure-aware generalisation, bridging the gap between geometric learning and robust adaptation.

测试时适应(TTA)作为一种有前景的范式,已被提出用于缓解深度模型中的分布转变。然而,现有的用于异常分割的 TTA 方法仍然受到依赖于像素级启发式方法的限制,例如置信度阈值或熵最小化,这些方法无法在噪声和纹理变化下保持结构一致性。此外,它们通常将异常图视为平坦的强度场,忽略了表征复杂缺陷几何形状的高阶空间关系。我们提出了 TopoTTA(拓扑测试时适应),这是一个新颖的框架,将持久同调这一拓扑数据分析工具整合到 TTA 流程中,以在适应过程中强制执行几何和结构一致性。通过对异常得分图应用多级立方复合体滤波,TopoTTA 推导出稳健的拓扑伪标签,以指导轻量级的测试时分类器,从而提高分割质量而无需重新训练主干模型。该方法避免了对特定方法的原始得分阈值进行掩膜二值化的依赖,保持了连通性,并在 2D 和 3D 模态之间具有良好的泛化能力。在六个标准基准(MVTec AD、VisA、Real-IAD、MVTec 3D-AD、AnomalyShapeNet 和 MVTec LOCO)上的广泛实验表明,相较于最先进的无监督异常检测和分割方法,平均 F1 值提升了 15%,在表现出复杂几何或结构变化的异常上获得了最大的提升。这些发现表明,将拓扑推理整合到测试时适应中为结构感知泛化提供了一条有原则的途径,弥合了几何学习与稳健适应之间的差距。

StructSplat: Generalizable 3D Gaussian Splatting from Uncalibrated Sparse Views

StructSplat:来自未校准稀疏视图的可泛化3D高斯溅射

Abstract
We present StructSplat, a feed-forward and generalizable 3D Gaussian reconstruction framework that operates directly on uncalibrated images without requiring camera parameters. Existing methods either rely on per-scene optimization or assume known camera poses, and often entangle geometry and appearance within a unified backbone, limiting reconstruction fidelity and generalization. Our key idea is to adopt a structured representation that organizes geometry, semantic, and texture cues with explicit roles in the reconstruction process. Specifically, we introduce a pixel-aligned feature injection mechanism to enable accurate texture modeling from 2D observations, incorporate semantic-aware priors to improve global consistency, and design a camera alignment strategy to prevent information leakage and improve generalization. Experiments show that our method significantly outperforms prior approaches on challenging benchmarks. On DL3DV, our method achieves 28.045 PSNR, surpassing AnySplat (22.377) by +5.67 dB. In cross-dataset evaluation, our method achieves +1.94 dB over AnySplat on ACID and +1.72 dB on RealEstate10K.

Abstract
We introduce PerceptionRubrics, a rubric-based evaluation framework that addresses the gap between saturated benchmark scores and real-world brittleness. Shifting evaluation from holistic semantic matching to rigorous atomic auditing, PerceptionRubrics pairs 1,038 information-dense images with over 12,000 instance-specific rubrics. These criteria are derived from golden captions constructed via a novel Circular Peer-Review consensus pipeline and then distilled into a dual-stream system of Must-Right (essential facts) and Easy-Wrong (fine-grained details) rubrics. Crucially, PerceptionRubrics implements a Gated Scoring mechanism: unlike linear averages, failure on mandatory visual facts triggers sharp binary penalties. Extensive evaluation yields critical insights: (1) The Reliability Gap: models often verify fragmented elements correctly yet fail strict conjunctive constraints, exposing brittleness in dense domains; (2) Open-Closed Stratification: contrary to reasoning trends, we reveal a persistent 8% perception deficit between open-source and proprietary frontiers; and (3) Human-Aligned Rigor: our gated metrics substantially out-align conventional benchmarks, validating that strict perceptual fidelity is the prerequisite for reliable generation.

Abstract
While the primary function of computers lies in computation and processing, the core value of the Internet is rooted in sharing and collaboration. Computers create the Internet, and the Internet empowers the value of computers. The rapid development of the Internet, cloud computing, and big data is pushing artificial intelligence into the era of large models (LMs). However, the practical application of LMs is currently hindered by high training costs and deployment complexities, driving a shift toward lightweight, private, and domain-specific models. With the rapid proliferation and wide distribution of heterogeneous models, enabling effective interaction and collaboration among them has emerged as a critical bottleneck that urgently needs to be addressed in LM development. Drawing inspiration from the development of the Internet, this paper proposes the concept, vision, and system architecture of world wide AI-model network (AI-ModelNet). It is a novel paradigm that achieves interconnection, capability sharing, and collaborative reasoning by establishing pathways between models. We first briefly review the current state of single-model and multi-model research. Subsequently, the systemic vision and hierarchical architecture of AI-ModelNet are articulated, followed by validation of the framework's feasibility through a prototype system and diverse application cases. Finally, key directions for future research are discussed preliminarily.

When Does Personality Composition Matter for Multi-Agent LLM Teams?

个性构成何时对多智能体大语言模型团队重要?
Keluskar, Aryan, Bhattacharjee, Amrita, Liu, Huan
Abstract
Personality prompting shapes how large language models communicate, yet whether these behavioral shifts affect objective task outcomes remains under-explored. Prior work shows that agents prompted with low agreeableness produce adversarial language, while those prompted with high agreeableness become cooperative, but the relationship between communication style and task performance has not been systematically examined across multiple domains. In this work, we investigate whether personality composition matters for multi-agent team performance by manipulating personality traits across frontier LLMs on three task domains: structured coding, open-ended research collaboration, and competitive bargaining. We find that personality effects depend critically on task structure. In coding tasks, low agreeableness leads to large communication shifts that have little effect on milestone completion. In open-ended collaboration and bargaining, the same manipulation substantially degrades performance. We discuss implications for multi-agent system design and the limits of personality manipulation.

Abstract
Large language model (LLM) agents have demonstrated strong capability in sequential decision-making, yet they remains fundamentally reactive in long-horizon tasks. Unlike humans who employ "what-if" reasoning to evaluate potential plans before commitment, standard agents lack an internal world model to simulate future outcomes. Therefore, we propose to internalize future-aware planning by training a single autoregressive model to verbalize both a prospective state rollout and a plan-conditioned success estimate-a textual analogue of the Q-value. Crucially, we identify a format-capability gap: simply fine-tuning agents on look-ahead traces during post-training leads to superficial mimicry of foresight without genuine predictive grounding. To bridge this gap, we introduce a three-stage training paradigm: (i) World Model Agentic Mid-Training (WM-AMT) to inject latent predictive capabilities into the policy; (ii) Format-Eliciting SFT (FE-SFT) to structure this injected capability; and (iii) Foresight-Conditioned Reinforcement Learning (FC-RL) to refine the calibration and utility of the generated simulations. Evaluated on search and mathematical reasoning tasks, our approach consistently outperforms other training baselines. Our results demonstrate that effective internal world modeling in LLM agents requires a capability-first training pipeline to achieve grounded and calibrated foresight.

大型语言模型(LLM)代理在顺序决策中表现出强大的能力,但在长时间跨度的任务中仍然基本上是反应性的。与人类通过“假设”推理在承诺之前评估潜在计划不同,标准代理缺乏内部世界模型来模拟未来结果。因此,我们提出通过训练一个单一的自回归模型来内化未来感知规划,该模型能够同时表达预期状态的展开和基于计划的成功估计——一个文本类比于 Q 值。关键是,我们识别出一种格式-能力差距:在后期训练中仅仅对代理进行前瞻性轨迹的微调,会导致对前瞻性的肤浅模仿,而没有真正的预测基础。为了解决这一差距,我们引入了一种三阶段的训练范式:(i)世界模型自主中期训练(WM-AMT),以将潜在的预测能力注入策略;(ii)格式引导的微调(FE-SFT),以构建这种注入的能力;(iii)前瞻性条件强化学习(FC-RL),以精炼生成模拟的校准和效用。在搜索和数学推理任务上的评估表明,我们的方法始终优于其他训练基准。我们的结果表明,在 LLM 代理中有效的内部世界建模需要一种以能力为先的训练流程,以实现有根据和经过校准的前瞻性。

Odyssey: Constructing Verifiable Local Truth-Preserving Foundation Models

奥德赛:构建可验证的局部真实保持基础模型
Mahadevan, Sridhar
Abstract
We introduce a categorical framework called ODYSSEY for constructing verifiable, local truth-preserving foundation models as compositions of foundries: building-block architectural components that specify a cover of local contexts, local representation families, restriction maps, gluing rules, obstruction policies, update obligations, and human-facing views. A foundry is an organized sheaf of knowledge that carries within it an argumentation component. Concrete foundries are built from generic foundries such as evidence/argument, operational decision, institutional/financial, market meaning, scientific challenge, research-program, assistant-build, and evaluation-harness foundries. Universal Foundry Learning (UFL) formalizes foundry construction as a composition of left and right Kan extensions, with left Kan extension rolling local artifacts into candidate foundries and right Kan extension enforcing the restriction, gluing, obstruction, and argumentation conditions required for promotion. Foundry SQL (FSQL) is a small typed query surface for slicing maintained foundry artifacts that uses TICKET (Topos Integration using Causal Kan Extension Transformers) certification for admitting external or pre-built models into durable ODYSSEY state. ODYSSEY is fully implemented and tested across a wide spectrum of concrete foundries, showing that the same categorical machinery supports domain construction, artifact replay, sheaf diagnostics, grounded Toulmin/local-LLM scrutiny, residual-obstruction ledgers, and optimized TICKET-compatible causal-claim extraction across heterogeneous sources. This paper is to be presented as a 2.5 hour tutorial at ICML 2026. The tutorial home page is at https://bit.ly/4ajS0nA.

DysLexLens: A Low-Resource LLM Framework for Analysing Dyslexic Learners Insights from Online Forums

DysLexLens:一种低资源大型语言模型框架,用于分析来自在线论坛的阅读障碍学习者的见解
Rezazadegan, Dana, Kia, Atie, Nandavong, Phongpadid, Carlon, Dominique, Nguyen, Jeremy, Banerjee, Abhik, Marshall, James, McCosker, Anthony, Kang, Yong-Bin
Abstract
Dyslexic learners increasingly use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support reading, writing, organisation, and study-related tasks. However, their lived experiences with these tools remain largely underexamined. This paper proposes DysLexLens, a low-resource LLM framework, designed to analyse dyslexic learners experience with AI through online forum discussions. DysLexLens is designed as an end-to-end, evidence-traceable architecture which transforms noisy social media posts into a dictionary-driven corpora, provides knowledge-graph (KG)-based question reasoning, generates verifiable query responses, and enables response evaluation through quantitative and human-grounded assessment. DysLexLens has four key features. First, it employs a dictionary-driven filtering method to construct a more focused Reddit corpus on dyslexia and AI, filtering out noisy and weakly related posts to improve the relevance of data collected from low-resource forum contexts. Second, it integrates LLM-assisted semantic analysis with KG-based query reasoning to uncover meaningful patterns. Third, it has quantitative evaluation metrics (RAGAS and Query Robustness) to measure LLM-generated response performance. Fourth, it provides structured qualitative validation guidelines for assessing response quality, with a specific focus on hallucination and evidence alignment. We demonstrate the effectiveness of DysLexLens using dyslexia-related Reddit forum data and 30 questions. The results show its potential generalisability to other low-resource forum data contexts. DysLexLens, sample data, questions and evaluation results are available at Github to support reproducibility.

MER-R1: Multimodal Emotion Reasoning via Slow-Fast Thinking Synergy

MER-R1:通过慢速-快速思维协同进行多模态情感推理
Han, Zhiyuan, Zhu, Beier, Tong, Wenwen, Qin, Chengwei, Wang, Xinyi, Zhang, Jiayu, Chen, Jiangnan, Guo, Hewei, Ran, Dongchuan, Lu, Lewei, Yang, Xun
Abstract
We find that explicit reasoning does not necessarily translate into better multimodal emotion recognition (MER) accuracy, even though it makes predictions more interpretable. Specifically, for reasoning-based MLLMs, fast thinking by triggering direct answers often outperforms slow thinking after deliberative reasoning. Our empirical analyses show that fast thinking improves recall with broader and more confident predictions, whereas slow thinking favors precision through conservative filtering of incorrect categories. Building on these insights, we propose MER-R1, a reinforcement learning framework that turns slow-fast complementarity into explicit optimization. Dual-objective disentanglement separates recall and precision into two optimization signals, allowing them to be jointly optimized rather than traded off against each other. Slow-fast confidence calibration further aligns the final slow-thinking answer with fast-thinking intuition, strengthening correct emotions while suppressing incorrect ones. In this way, MER-R1 unifies the recall-oriented intuition of fast thinking with the precision-oriented selectivity of slow thinking. We further provide theoretical justification for this synergy, showing that it mitigates variance-induced interference during optimization. Extensive experiments on MER-UniBench and MME-Emotion show that MER-R1 achieves state-of-the-art performance and makes reasoning genuinely benefit emotion recognition.

我们发现,尽管显式推理使预测更具可解释性,但并不一定能转化为更好的多模态情感识别(MER)准确性。具体而言,对于基于推理的多模态大语言模型(MLLMs),通过直接回答触发的快速思维往往优于经过深思熟虑的慢速思维。我们的实证分析表明,快速思维通过更广泛和更自信的预测提高了召回率,而慢速思维则通过对错误类别的保守过滤来提高精确度。基于这些洞察,我们提出了MER-R1,一个强化学习框架,将慢速-快速互补性转化为显式优化。双目标解耦将召回率和精确度分离为两个优化信号,使它们能够联合优化,而不是相互权衡。慢速-快速置信度校准进一步将最终的慢速思维答案与快速思维直觉对齐,增强正确情感的同时抑制错误情感。通过这种方式,MER-R1将快速思维的召回导向直觉与慢速思维的精确导向选择性统一起来。我们进一步提供了这种协同作用的理论依据,表明它减轻了优化过程中由方差引起的干扰。在MER-UniBench和MME-Emotion上的大量实验表明,MER-R1实现了最先进的性能,并使推理真正惠及情感识别。

ToE: A Hierarchical and Explainable Claim Verification Framework with Dynamic Multi-source Evidence Retrieval and Aggregation

ToE:一种具有动态多源证据检索与聚合的分层可解释声明验证框架
Wang, Zhaoqi, Zhang, Zijian, Zheng, Kun, Li, Zhen, Li, Xin, Li, Chunlei, Liu, Jiamou
Abstract
The rapid spread of fake news poses increasing threats to information ecosystems, especially as AI-generated misinformation under Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) poisoning allows adversarially crafted content to be systematically surfaced by retrieval systems, contaminating LLM reasoning. In this paper, we propose Tree of Evidence (ToE), a hierarchical evidence reasoning framework for automated fact-checking that models each claim as a dynamically expanding argument tree. ToE integrates a reinforcement learning-driven multi-source retrieval agent, an evidence evaluation agent, and an argument tree aggregation algorithm to iteratively decompose, retrieve, and verify claims through an explainable evidence chain. We further provide a theoretical analysis of the retrieval process, deriving a formal error bound that guarantees the learned policy converges to a neighborhood of the information-theoretically optimal policy. Experiments across multiple datasets and backbone LLMs demonstrate that ToE achieves improvements ranging from 4 to 24 percentage points over competitive baselines, with particularly pronounced gains on adversarially poisoned inputs.

Towards Reliable and Robust LLM Planning: Symbolic Feedback-Driven Iterative Self-Refinement Framework

迈向可靠且稳健的大型语言模型规划:基于符号反馈的迭代自我精炼框架
Zhang, Jiajing, Jiang, Jiamei, Zhang, Chenyang, Mo, Feifei, Li, Linjing, Zeng, Daniel
Abstract
Large language models (LLMs) have attracted widespread attention from academia and industry, yet their deployment raises critical security concerns regarding robustness and reliability. Planning, a core component of intelligent behavior, remains challenging for LLMs, which often produce infeasible or incorrect solutions in long-horizon decision-making tasks due to inherent complexity. In this paper, we propose a symbolic feedback-driven iterative self-refinement framework to enhance the robustness and reliability of LLMs in long-horizon planning. Specifically, a natural language prompting mechanism is introduced to map logical symbols into natural language descriptions, enabling LLMs to better capture task constraints and semantics. We further design a symbolic verifier that identifies errors and converts them into corrective instructions interpretable by the LLM, thereby guiding self-refinement. In addition, we leverage a plan recognizer to infer goal reachability, facilitating more effective guidance toward desired goals. Empirical results demonstrate that the proposed framework consistently improves both feasibility and correctness in long-horizon planning tasks. This highlights its effectiveness in enhancing the reliability of LLM-based planning and potential to enable more trustworthy AI systems.

Understanding Rollout Error in Graph World Models

理解图世界模型中的展开误差
Song, Xinyuan, Cai, Zekun
Abstract
World models are often used for planning by rolling learned dynamics forward. Many planning environments, however, are not vectors or images; they are graphs of agents, tools, skills, routes, and dependencies. In these settings, a local prediction error may stay local or spread through the graph, and the failure mode changes again when edges are predicted rather than fixed. This paper studies long-horizon rollout error in Graph World Models (GWMs). We formulate a unified fixed-edge and dynamic-edge GWM framework with action nodes for node-, edge-, and graph-level decisions. We develop graph-valued rollout bounds that separate topology-induced amplification from model-induced amplification, and we introduce a joint node-edge operator for dynamic-edge rollouts. Guided by the analysis, we propose Error-Aware GWM, which combines spectral regularization, rollout consistency, and critical-node weighting. Across synthetic topologies and heterogeneous agent-graph testbeds, rollout error and planning regret grow with horizon, dynamic-edge training is needed when structure evolves, and Error-Aware GWM prevents long-horizon divergence while preserving prediction accuracy. Real-world graph benchmarks clarify the scope of GWMs: they are most useful for dynamic graph rollout and agent planning, while specialized graph models remain strong on static or sparse prediction tasks.

世界模型通常通过向前滚动学习到的动态来进行规划。然而,许多规划环境并不是向量或图像;它们是由代理、工具、技能、路线和依赖关系构成的图。在这些环境中,局部预测误差可能保持局部或通过图传播,当边缘被预测而不是固定时,失败模式又会发生变化。本文研究了图世界模型(Graph World Models, GWM)中的长时间展望展开误差。我们提出了一个统一的固定边缘和动态边缘GWM框架,包含用于节点、边缘和图级决策的动作节点。我们开发了图值展开界限,将拓扑引起的放大与模型引起的放大区分开,并引入了一个用于动态边缘展开的联合节点-边缘算子。在分析的指导下,我们提出了错误感知GWM(Error-Aware GWM),该模型结合了谱正则化、展开一致性和关键节点加权。在合成拓扑和异构代理图测试平台上,展开误差和规划遗憾随着时间展望的增加而增长,当结构演变时需要动态边缘训练,而错误感知GWM在保持预测准确性的同时防止了长时间展望的发散。真实世界的图基准测试阐明了GWM的适用范围:它们在动态图展开和代理规划中最为有用,而专门的图模型在静态或稀疏预测任务中仍然表现强劲。

Grounded Iterative Language Planning: How Parameterized World Models Reduce Hallucination Propagation in LLM Agents

基于参数化世界模型的迭代语言规划:如何减少大型语言模型代理中的幻觉传播
Song, Xinyuan, Cai, Zekun
Abstract
World models for language agents come in two useful forms. An agent-based world model calls an LLM API and reasons flexibly in language, but its errors appear as hallucinated state changes that are hard to score with ordinary regression losses. A parameterized world model is a trained transition predictor; its errors are easier to measure with quantities such as NodeMSE, delta accuracy, and validity accuracy, but it is usually weaker as a standalone planner. We compare these two families on four graph-structured planning benchmarks and introduce operational hallucination metrics for the agent-based case. The comparison motivates \textbf{Grounded Iterative Language Planning} (GILP), which trains only a small parameterized backbone and combines it with API-based agent reasoning. The backbone supplies valid actions, predicted state deltas, risk, and value; the LLM drafts an action and imagined delta; and a consistency gate asks for revision when the two disagree. On real GPT-4o-mini calls, GILP reduces hallucinated-state rate from 0.176 to 0.035. In calibrated simulator ablations, it raises success from 0.668 to 0.838 while adding only ~22% extra LLM calls.

语言代理的世界模型有两种有用的形式。基于代理的世界模型调用大型语言模型(LLM)API,并以灵活的方式进行语言推理,但其错误表现为难以用普通回归损失评分的幻觉状态变化。参数化世界模型是一个训练好的转移预测器;其错误可以通过节点均方误差(NodeMSE)、增量准确性(delta accuracy)和有效性准确性(validity accuracy)等量度更容易地进行测量,但作为独立规划器通常较弱。我们在四个图结构规划基准上比较这两种模型,并为基于代理的情况引入了操作性幻觉度量。比较结果激励了 extbf{基于参数化的迭代语言规划}(GILP),该方法仅训练一个小型的参数化骨干,并将其与基于API的代理推理相结合。骨干提供有效的动作、预测的状态增量、风险和价值;LLM起草一个动作和想象的增量;当两者不一致时,一致性门控会要求修正。在真实的GPT-4o-mini调用中,GILP将幻觉状态率从0.176降低到0.035。在经过校准的模拟器消融实验中,它将成功率从0.668提高到0.838,同时仅增加约22%的LLM调用。

ATOD: Annealed Turn-aware On-policy Distillation for Multi-turn Autonomous Agents

ATOD:用于多轮自主智能体的退火轮次感知在线蒸馏
Tan, Qitai, Zong, Zefang, Li, Yang, Chen, Peng
Abstract
Training small language-model agents for long-horizon interactive tasks requires both fast imitation and reward-driven improvement. On-policy distillation (OPD) provides dense teacher guidance and typically improves rapidly in the early stage, but its gains saturate once the student approaches the teacher, limiting the final performance ceiling. Reinforcement learning (RL) directly optimizes environment rewards and encourages exploratory improvement toward a higher reward-defined ceiling, but sparse and delayed feedback makes early-stage learning much less efficient than OPD. In this paper, we propose ATOD (Annealed Turn-aware On-policy Distillation), a hybrid online distillation algorithm that explicitly exploits this complementarity. (1) ATOD uses an annealed OPD-RL schedule: OPD dominates early training to approach teacher-level behavior, while RL is gradually strengthened to drive reward-based exploration. (2) ATOD introduces Turn-level Disagreement-Uncertainty Reweighting (T-DUR), which softly amplifies high-utility turns and improves dense supervision in long trajectories. Experiments on ALFWorld, WebShop, and Search-QA show that ATOD consistently outperforms competing post-training baselines: across the three student sizes, ATOD improves average success rate by 3.03 points over OPD and 23.62 points over GRPO, while surpassing the corresponding teacher models by 2.16 points.

训练小型语言模型智能体以应对长期交互任务需要快速模仿和基于奖励的改进。在线政策蒸馏(OPD)提供了密集的教师指导,通常在早期阶段迅速改善,但一旦学生接近教师,其收益便会饱和,限制了最终的性能上限。强化学习(RL)直接优化环境奖励,并鼓励朝向更高奖励定义的上限进行探索性改进,但稀疏和延迟的反馈使得早期学习的效率远低于OPD。在本文中,我们提出了ATOD(Annealed Turn-aware On-policy Distillation),一种混合在线蒸馏算法,明确利用了这种互补性。(1) ATOD使用退火的OPD-RL调度:OPD在早期训练中占主导地位,以接近教师级别的行为,而RL逐渐增强以推动基于奖励的探索。(2) ATOD引入了轮次级不一致性-不确定性重加权(T-DUR),该方法柔和地放大高效用的轮次,并改善长轨迹中的密集监督。在ALFWorld、WebShop和Search-QA上的实验表明,ATOD始终优于竞争的后训练基线:在三种学生规模中,ATOD的平均成功率比OPD提高了3.03个百分点,比GRPO提高了23.62个百分点,同时超越了相应的教师模型2.16个百分点。

NormAct: A Benchmark for Hidden Social Norm Compliance in Embodied Planning

NormAct:隐性社会规范遵从的具身规划基准
Zhao, Shiyun, Song, Xinwei, Guo, Tianyu, Gao, Xiaomeng, Liu, Mingyuan, Han, Xu, Zhang, Yuanyuan, Zhang, Zhenliang, Feng, Xue, Dai, Bo
Abstract
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed as embodied planners in egocentric environments, where task success requires not only achieving instructed goals but also acting in socially appropriate ways. While explicit goals may render certain actions optimal, implicit social norms often impose hidden constraints. Existing evaluations typically focus on explicit goal achievement or direct norm knowledge, seldom assessing whether planners can infer and apply these hidden constraints within action sequences. We introduce NormAct, a benchmark for embodied social-norm interactions that evaluates plans on Goal Achievement, Norm Compliance, and overall Task Success. NormAct uniquely embeds hidden norms within ordinary tasks, testing whether models can realize them without explicit instruction. Experiments with state-of-the-art MLLMs (GPT-5.4, Claude Opus 4.7, Gemini 3 Pro) reveal a significant gap: models achieve explicit goals in 67.3\% of cases, but comply with hidden norms in only 26.4\%. Cue-condition experiments indicate that this gap stems not from a lack of general social knowledge, but from challenges in activating and grounding relevant norms in context. To address this, we propose NormPerceptor, a context-conditioned cue generator that infers scene-relevant norms prior to planning, increasing Task Success from 24.2\% to 46.7\%. Our results underscore the importance of enabling embodied agents to proactively detect hidden norms, ground them in visual evidence, and integrate them as action-planning constraints. Our benchmark is publicly available at https://huggingface.co/datasets/Caleb196x/NormAct.

Verifiable Geometry Problem Solving: Solver-Driven Autoformalization and Theorem Proposing

可验证的几何问题求解:求解器驱动的自动形式化与定理提出
Li, Can, Zhang, Ting, Zhao, Junbo, Huang, Hua
Abstract
Geometry Problem Solving have increasingly adopt the neuro-symbolic paradigm, combining neural intuition with symbolic rigor. However, current frameworks suffer from severe bottlenecks in two core stages: autoformalization, which treats multimodal translation as a static task decoupled from downstream solver compatibility, and theorem prediction, where solvers frequently hit a deductive impasse due to fixed rule libraries. To address these, we propose SD-GPS, a solver-driven framework that treats the symbolic solver as an execution oracle throughout both formalization and deduction. First, Solver-Driven Autoformalization unifies supervised formal-language adaptation and solvability-guided reinforcement learning into a single module built on QwenVL3-2B, making executability the central training signal. Second, Verified Theorem Proposing introduces an impasse-aware agent that proposes local auxiliary lemmas from current proof states, ensuring soundness by filtering all proposals through symbolic verification. Empirical evaluations on Geometry3K and PGPS9K demonstrate that SD-GPS consistently outperforms existing MLLM, neural, and neuro-symbolic methods across standard completion, multiple-choice, and cross-modal reference regimes, proving that closing the loop between multimodal perception and symbolic execution significantly improves geometric reasoning, offering profound insights into how neural agents can be grounded by formal systems to achieve verifiable problem-solving capabilities.

RelBall: Relation Ball with Quaternion Rotation for Knowledge Graph Completion

RelBall:基于四元数旋转的关系球用于知识图谱补全
Liu, Yike, Xie, Peijia, He, Chao, Zhu, Huiling
Abstract
Real-world knowledge graphs are often incomplete, lacking many valid facts. Knowledge Graph Completion (KGC) aims to predict missing links using known triples, thereby enhancing graph coverage. A key challenge is modeling diverse relational patterns such as symmetry, antisymmetry, inversion, composition and semantic hierarchy. Existing models such as RotatE can capture symmetric, antisymmetric, inverse, and commutative composition patterns, yet struggle with non-commutative composition. Rotate3D addresses this by introducing non-commutativity via three-dimensional rotations, but still fails to capture the semantic hierarchies prevalent in knowledge graphs. Moreover, both models cannot effectively model one-to-many relations. To overcome these limitations, we propose RelBall, which extends Rotate3D with two innovations. First, our model introduces modulus transformation to model hierarchies, driving abstract concepts toward smaller moduli and concrete instances toward larger ones. Second, it introduces a tail-centric relation ball to model one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many relations. RelBall offers the following advantages: (1) coverage of all relational patterns, including the ones mentioned above; (2) an interpretable hierarchical representation where the modulus directly reflect semantic levels; (3) support for one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many relations. Experiments on multiple datasets demonstrate RelBall's competitive link prediction performance against various baselines.

现实世界中的知识图谱往往是不完整的,缺乏许多有效的事实。知识图谱补全(Knowledge Graph Completion, KGC)旨在利用已知三元组预测缺失的链接,从而增强图谱的覆盖率。一个关键挑战是建模多样的关系模式,如对称性、反对称性、反转、组合和语义层次。现有模型如 RotatE 能够捕捉对称、反对称、逆和可交换组合模式,但在处理非可交换组合时表现不佳。Rotate3D 通过引入三维旋转来解决这一问题,增加了非可交换性,但仍未能有效捕捉知识图谱中普遍存在的语义层次。此外,这两种模型都无法有效建模一对多关系。为克服这些局限性,我们提出了 RelBall,它通过两项创新扩展了 Rotate3D。首先,我们的模型引入模变换以建模层次结构,将抽象概念驱动向较小的模,而将具体实例驱动向较大的模。其次,它引入了以尾部为中心的关系球,以建模一对一、一对多、多对一和多对多关系。RelBall 提供了以下优势:(1)覆盖所有关系模式,包括上述模式;(2)可解释的层次表示,其中模直接反映语义层次;(3)支持一对一、一对多、多对一和多对多关系。在多个数据集上的实验表明,RelBall 在链接预测性能上与各种基线相比具有竞争力。

Lifted inference exploits indistinguishabilities in probabilistic graphical models by using a representative for indistinguishable objects, thereby speeding up query answering while maintaining exact answers. In this article, we show how lifting can be applied to efficiently compute causal effects in relational domains. More specifically, we introduce parametric causal factor graphs (PCFGs) to incorporate causal knowledge in lifted models and give a formal semantics of interventions therein. We further present the Lifted Causal Inference (LCI) algorithm to compute causal effects on a lifted level, thereby drastically speeding up causal inference compared to propositional inference, e.g., in causal Bayesian networks. In addition, we present partially directed parametric causal factor graphs (PD-PCFGs) as a generalisation of PCFGs to handle partial causal knowledge and extend LCI to perform lifted causal inference in a PD-PCFG, thereby extending the applicability of lifted causal inference to a broader range of models requiring less prior knowledge about causal relationships.

Abstract
JD.com, one of the world's largest e-commerce platforms, serves over 700 million active users and millions of merchants, with a catalog of tens of billions of SKUs. At this scale, high-quality, structured item knowledge underpins a better consumer experience, lower management costs, and higher operational efficiency-yet producing and serving it poses three industrial-scale challenges: fast-emerging concepts, high-quality knowledge production for massive SKUs, and diverse downstream requirements. To address these challenges, we present the JD Oxygen AI Item Center (Oxygen AIIC), an industrial-scale platform built on LLMs/VLMs for item-knowledge production and service. Oxygen AIIC is built around four core pillars: (i) ontology engineering driven by efficient human-AI collaboration, which supports the dynamic evolution and agile expansion of an ontology with millions of entries; (ii) a "Semantic Search then Discrimination"(S2D) knowledge identification architecture that, combined with throughput improvement strategies, enables scalable, extensible, and high-throughput AI Item Library production for tens of billions of SKUs; (iii) self-evolving item-understanding LLMs/VLMs that improve in a stable and controllable manner, enabling knowledge production with 94.2% precision and 82.8% recall; and (iv) a unified item tunnel that serves as the data and service hub. Oxygen AIIC now covers tens of thousands of JD categories and processes hundreds of millions of item updates per day on Huawei Ascend NPUs. It has accumulated hundreds of billions of item-knowledge assets. Deployed across core business scenarios-including search, recommendation, operations, category planning-Oxygen AIIC has delivered measurable gains at scale. Search-traffic coverage reaches 80.4%, item-information quality issues drop by 37%, the automated fill rate of core attributes during item listing exceeds 80%.

Ontology-Guided Evidence Path Inference for Multi-hop Knowledge Graph Question Answering

基于本体引导的多跳知识图谱问答证据路径推理
Shan, Yongxue, Wu, Meihan, Fang, Cundi, Peng, Jie, Wang, Xiaodong
Abstract
Knowledge graph question answering (KGQA) aims to answer natural-language questions by reasoning over structured facts. Existing multi-hop KGQA methods mainly rely on topic-centered expansion, which faces two key challenges: the search space rapidly grows with noisy mixed-type paths, and retrieved paths may fail to satisfy the semantic constraints of complex questions. To address these challenges, we propose OPI, an ontology-guided evidence path inference framework for multi-hop KGQA. OPI introduces a relation-centric ontology graph to capture the head-tail type constraints of relations, providing a compact interface for answer-side constraints. Based on this ontology graph, OPI first introduces a bidirectional retrieval mechanism by mapping the predicted answer type to compatible final-hop relations and combining topic-side prefix expansion with answer-side final-hop matching, thereby suppressing noisy mixed-type expansion. OPI further adopts an iterative refinement strategy to reassess retrieved paths and candidate answers under the question context, filtering type-compatible but question-irrelevant evidence for more reliable answer prediction. Experiments on WebQSP, CWQ, and MetaQA show that OPI substantially reduces the search space, improves Hit@1/F1 by 4.6/5.0 points on WebQSP and 8.9/3.3 points on CWQ over the strongest prior results, and achieves near-saturated Hit@1 on MetaQA with the retrieval module alone.

知识图谱问答(KGQA)旨在通过对结构化事实的推理来回答自然语言问题。现有的多跳 KGQA 方法主要依赖于以主题为中心的扩展,这面临两个关键挑战:搜索空间随着噪声混合路径的增加而迅速扩大,且检索到的路径可能无法满足复杂问题的语义约束。为了解决这些挑战,我们提出了 OPI,一个基于本体引导的多跳 KGQA 证据路径推理框架。OPI 引入了一个以关系为中心的本体图,以捕捉关系的头尾类型约束,为答案侧约束提供了一个紧凑的接口。基于该本体图,OPI 首先通过将预测的答案类型映射到兼容的最终跳跃关系,并结合主题侧前缀扩展与答案侧最终跳跃匹配,引入了双向检索机制,从而抑制噪声混合扩展。OPI 进一步采用迭代精炼策略,在问题上下文中重新评估检索路径和候选答案,过滤类型兼容但与问题无关的证据,以实现更可靠的答案预测。在 WebQSP、CWQ 和 MetaQA 上的实验表明,OPI 显著减少了搜索空间,在 WebQSP 上将 Hit@1/F1 提高了 4.6/5.0 分,在 CWQ 上提高了 8.9/3.3 分,相较于最强的先前结果,并在仅使用检索模块的情况下在 MetaQA 上达到了近饱和的 Hit@1。

AI-Driven Synthesis for High-Tech System Design: Automating Innovation

基于人工智能的高科技系统设计合成:创新的自动化
Oerlemans, Luuk, Westerhof, Steven, Hofman, Theo
Abstract
This article addresses the combinatorial complexity inherent in modern high-tech system design by presenting automation-in-design (AiD) as a transformative paradigm. We propose computational design synthesis (CDS), a framework utilising deep learning and generative AI to automate the creation of novel systems. Two case studies (e-drive system design and spatial dimensioning problem) serve as proof-points for this approach. The AI-driven methods used in the case studies represent a fundamental shift in engineering, advancing from simulation-based optimisation towards autonomous design with minimal human supervision.

Tandem Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards

具有可验证奖励的串联强化学习
Jiao, Difan, Singhal, Raghav, West, Robert, Anderson, Ashton
Abstract
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has significantly improved the reasoning capability of large language models, reaching expert or even superhuman performance in domains such as competition math. However, whether weaker agents and humans can actually harness this capability is far less certain, with RLVR documented to drift reasoning toward idiosyncratic patterns such as poor readability and language mixing. Tandem training is a recently introduced paradigm that targets this compatibility problem: a trained, stronger senior co-generates each rollout with a frozen, weaker junior, and the two are rewarded as a team, so the senior is pushed to reason in ways the junior can follow. Yet this paradigm has so far been demonstrated only in proof-of-concept settings, leaving open whether it scales to the long chains of thought of the modern RLVR pipeline. In this work, we propose Tandem Reinforcement Learning (TRL), which carries the tandem training paradigm into RLVR. In TRL, the senior and a frozen junior alternate stochastically to co-generate the reasoning, the resulting generation is rewarded, and the standard GRPO loss is applied to the senior. Training Qwen3-4B-Instruct on competition math, we find that TRL matches vanilla GRPO on solo reasoning capability while three properties emerge together from the same rollout structure: stronger handoff robustness with the junior, reduced distributional drift from the junior, and a chain-of-thought more legible to the junior. Our results demonstrate a promising route for RLVR with practical payoffs in multi-model communication and human compatibility.

Agent-Native Immune System: Architecture, Taxonomy, and Engineering

代理原生免疫系统:架构、分类与工程
Shen, Bo, Chang, Lifeng, Wei, Tianyuan, Li, Yunpeng, Shi, Feng, Han, Yichen, Gao, Peijie, Kuang, Shiyi, Chang, Xin, Li, Dehui
Abstract
The transition from static chat bots to autonomous agents--equipped with persistent memory, tool-use protocols, and multi-agent collaboration--has fundamentally expanded the AI threat landscape. Current defense mechanisms, such as perimeter security and training-time alignment, remain external to the agent's active reasoning loop. Consequently, they fall short: a fully aligned agent remains highly vulnerable to runtime hijacking via memory poisoning, tool-chain manipulation, or multi-agent protocol attacks. To address this critical gap, we introduce the Agent-Native Immune System (ANIS), the first biologically inspired, endogenous defense architecture embedded directly within the agent's cognitive loop. Our framework presents four primary contributions. First, we design a six-layer Immune Tower (L0-L5), distinctly incorporating Barrier Immunity (L1) as a non-cognitive, physical-and-logical isolation layer. Second, we establish a unified taxonomy of Agent Viruses and Agent Vaccines, formalizing the critical distinction between superficial non-parametric defenses and robust parametric vaccines. Third, we conceptualize the Harness Triad--Meta, Self, and Auto--a self-monitoring, meta-cognitive automation backbone that drives Continual Immune Learning (CIL), enabling vaccines to dynamically adapt to novel threats. Finally, we establish a rigorous theoretical demarcation between model alignment and agent immunity: while alignment provides a static "constitutional" value foundation during training, ANIS serves as the dynamic "law enforcement" mechanism during runtime. We conclude by framing open challenges for the field, including immune protocol standardization, novel evaluation metrics such as the Autoimmunity Rate (false-positive intervention rate), and the co-evolutionary dynamics between pathogens and vaccines within collective intelligence ecosystems.

从静态聊天机器人到具备持久记忆、工具使用协议和多代理协作的自主代理的转变,根本上扩展了人工智能的威胁格局。当前的防御机制,如周界安全和训练时对齐,仍然处于代理的主动推理循环之外。因此,它们无法有效应对:一个完全对齐的代理仍然高度易受运行时劫持的影响,例如内存中毒、工具链操控或多代理协议攻击。为了解决这一关键缺口,我们提出了代理原生免疫系统(Agent-Native Immune System, ANIS),这是第一个生物启发的、内生的防御架构,直接嵌入代理的认知循环中。我们的框架提出了四个主要贡献。首先,我们设计了一个六层免疫塔(Immune Tower, L0-L5),明确将屏障免疫(Barrier Immunity, L1)作为非认知的、物理与逻辑隔离层。其次,我们建立了一个统一的代理病毒和代理疫苗分类法,正式区分了表面非参数防御和稳健的参数疫苗之间的关键区别。第三,我们构思了三重支架(Harness Triad)——元(Meta)、自我(Self)和自动(Auto)——一个自我监控的元认知自动化基础,驱动持续免疫学习(Continual Immune Learning, CIL),使疫苗能够动态适应新威胁。最后,我们建立了模型对齐与代理免疫之间的严格理论划分:虽然对齐在训练期间提供了静态的“宪法”价值基础,但ANIS在运行时则充当动态的“执法”机制。我们最后提出了该领域的开放挑战,包括免疫协议标准化、新的评估指标如自身免疫率(Autoimmunity Rate,假阳性干预率),以及在集体智能生态系统中病原体与疫苗之间的共同进化动态。

Formalizing Latent Thoughts: Four Axioms of Thought Representation in LLMs

形式化潜在思想:大型语言模型中思想表征的四个公理
Seddik, Fahd, Fard, Fatemeh
Abstract
We introduce an axiomatic evaluation framework for latent thought representations in LLMs, comprising metrics that are independent of downstream benchmark scores and reveal representational failures that benchmark accuracy masks. Existing evaluations conflate representation quality with model capacity. Therefore, failures cannot be attributed to the representation rather than to the model that processes it. We formalize four functional axioms (Causality, Minimality, Separability, and Stability) and define a quantitative measure for each, computed directly on the representation independently of downstream accuracy. We audit open-weight LLMs across 23 reasoning tasks (e.g., Spatial Reasoning, Factual QA). We find that no candidate satisfies all four axioms simultaneously, that the representations distinguish task type reliably but cannot distinguish between two questions within the same task, and that the representations encode little information beyond what is already present in the input embedding. The failure is consistent across dense, reasoning-distilled, and RL-trained model families, indicating that the gap is structural rather than a property of model size or training procedure.

我们提出了一个用于大型语言模型(LLMs)中潜在思想表征的公理评估框架,该框架包含独立于下游基准分数的度量,揭示了基准准确性掩盖的表征失败。现有评估将表征质量与模型能力混为一谈。因此,失败无法归因于表征本身,而是归因于处理它的模型。我们形式化了四个功能公理(因果性、最小性、可分离性和稳定性),并为每个公理定义了一个定量度量,该度量直接在表征上计算,与下游准确性无关。我们在23个推理任务(例如,空间推理、事实问答)中审计了开放权重的LLMs。我们发现没有候选模型能够同时满足所有四个公理,表征能够可靠地区分任务类型,但无法区分同一任务中的两个问题,并且表征编码的信息远不及输入嵌入中已有的信息。该失败在稠密模型、推理提炼模型和强化学习训练的模型家族中是一致的,表明这一差距是结构性的,而不是模型规模或训练过程的属性。

Position: The Term "Machine Unlearning" Is Overused in LLMs

立场:术语“机器遗忘”在大语言模型中被过度使用
Yoon, Sangyeon, Jun, Yeachan, No, Albert
Abstract
Large language models increasingly face demands to "forget" training data, knowledge, or behaviors due to regulatory deletion obligations, copyright/licensing disputes, and safety or product-policy requirements. This position paper argues that machine unlearning is overused as a term in LLM research and should be reserved for dataset-defined deletion: removing the training influence of a precisely specified forget set such that the resulting model is approximately indistinguishable from retraining without that data. We contend that many tasks currently labeled "unlearning" (e.g., refusal for harmful requests, entity/knowledge removal, or targeted suppression) pursue different, often policy-dependent objectives and therefore require different terminology and baselines (e.g., alignment, suppression, editing, obfuscation). We further argue that this confusion is not cosmetic: because papers make different implicit guarantees under the same label, metrics and benchmarks are frequently reused outside their intended scope, rewarding surface-level non-disclosure (e.g., low ROUGE/forget accuracy) even when retraining-equivalence is not tested and derived capabilities remain. We conclude by calling for stricter terminology tied to explicit guarantees and reference models, and for evaluations that match the claimed objective.

由于监管删除义务、版权/许可争议以及安全或产品政策要求,大型语言模型日益面临“遗忘”训练数据、知识或行为的需求。本文立场论文认为,在大语言模型研究中,术语机器遗忘被过度使用,应当仅保留用于数据集定义的删除:移除一个精确指定的遗忘集的训练影响,以使得结果模型与在没有该数据的情况下重新训练的模型几乎无法区分。我们主张,目前被标记为“遗忘”的许多任务(例如,拒绝有害请求、实体/知识移除或有针对性的抑制)追求不同的、通常依赖政策的目标,因此需要不同的术语和基准(例如,协调、抑制、编辑、模糊化)。我们进一步认为,这种混淆并非表面现象:由于论文在同一标签下做出不同的隐含保证,度量标准和基准经常在其预期范围之外被重复使用,奖励表面层次的非披露(例如,低 ROUGE/遗忘准确率),即使在没有测试重新训练等价性且派生能力仍然存在的情况下。我们最后呼吁对与明确保证和参考模型相关的术语进行更严格的定义,并进行与所声称目标相匹配的评估。

Abstract
Automated coaching for oral presentations sits at the intersection of computer-assisted pronunciation training (CAPT), prosody modeling, and speech synthesis, yet no prior work has systematically surveyed and compared existing systems along these dimensions. This survey reviews and categorizes automated presentation coaching systems, spanning pronunciation tutors, fluency and prosody coaches, multimodal trainers, and conference Q&A practice tools. We introduce a five-dimensional task taxonomy - covering segmental pronunciation, lexical stress, suprasegmental prosody, pacing, and content faithfulness - and explicitly map surveyed systems onto it to reveal coverage gaps. We further review the core technical methods these systems employ: TTS-based exemplar generation and diagnostic methods for pronunciation, prosody, and fluency assessment. Key open challenges include the scarcity of annotated presentation corpora, achieving accent-fair feedback across diverse L1 backgrounds, and delivering low-latency diagnostics for real-time rehearsal.

Abstract
This paper describes team HSA_CORAL's submission to the FinCausal 2026 shared task on extracting cause-effect relations from financial narratives via extractive question answering in English and Spanish. We compare three modeling families: (i) encoder-only token tagging with multilingual BERT, (ii) encoder-decoder generation with multilingual BART, and (iii) decoder-only LLMs (Llama 3.1 and GPT variants) using prompt refinement, few-shot demonstrations, and supervised fine-tuning. Across settings, prompting and few-shot examples yield competitive performance, while supervised fine-tuning provides the largest gains. Our best system, GPT-4.1 Mini fine-tuned on combined English and Spanish training data, achieves a tied highest score on the English subtask (score 4.8140) and ranks third on Spanish (score 4.7753) under the shared task's LLM-as-a-judge metric. Overall, the results highlight the value of task-specific adaptation and multilingual fine-tuning for cross-lingual transfer in financial causality QA.

Developmental approach reveals the statistical learning of Neural Language Models: Transformers generalize from the most abstract statistical patterns

发展性方法揭示神经语言模型的统计学习:变换器从最抽象的统计模式中进行概括
Bojun, Wang, Jenkins, Holly, Wonnacott, Elizabeth
Abstract
In this study, we use a developmental approach to investigate the statistical learning and mental representation of neural language models (NLM). A series of Generative Transformer models are trained on a synthetic grammar. The model states are saved at multiple stages in the course of training. Through analyzing how the internal representations of these models change in the developmental path, we found that NLMs acquire the most abstract global statistical knowledge at the beginning of learning and later acquire the relatively local statistical dependencies. This learning path contains many over-generalizations from the very beginning and these over-generalizations are gradually constrained in the later stage of learning. Based on this observation, we propose a new framework to explain the statistical learning and language cognition of NLMs.

Supersede: Diagnosing and Training the Memory-Update Gap in LLM Agents

Supersede:诊断和训练大型语言模型代理中的记忆更新差距
Patel, Vedant
Abstract
Large language model (LLM) agents operate over long, multi-session interactions in which facts change: a user moves, a price updates, a plan is revised. Acting correctly requires using the current value of a fact and discarding values that have been superseded. We isolate this ability on real conversational data and show that it is a distinct, unsolved failure. On the knowledge-update subset of LongMemEval, replacing an agent's full context with a bounded, self-maintained memory drops accuracy from 92% to 77% even on a frontier model (gpt-5.4), a gap that is statistically significant (paired McNemar p<0.005) and persists across model scale while full-context accuracy saturates near 92%. The bottleneck is therefore memory maintenance, not comprehension, and is not closed by a stronger model. We then ask whether this is merely an undersized memory, and find it is not: as the conversation grows 24x, accuracy falls further (from 68% to 28%), and granting the agent proportionally more memory yields no detectable recovery (28% to 28%, n=25). The failure scales with the length of the conversation, not the compression ratio. We release Supersede, an open reinforcement-learning environment (on the verifiers / prime-rl stack) that turns this measurement into a training signal: agents are rewarded for answering from the current value and penalized for stale ones. Finally, we close the loop and show the gap is trainable: GRPO fine-tuning a small open model (Qwen2.5-3B) on this environment nearly doubles its held-out supersession accuracy on real, unseen conversations (9.0% to 16.7%, a single run), along a monotonic checkpoint curve indicating the learned policy, not the harness, carries the gain. To our knowledge this is the first trainable environment whose reward targets temporal fact-currency, and the first evidence the supersession gap can be trained down, not only measured.

大型语言模型(LLM)代理在长时间的多会话交互中运作,其中事实会发生变化:用户移动、价格更新、计划修订。正确的行为需要使用事实的当前值并丢弃已被替代的值。我们在真实的对话数据中孤立出这种能力,并表明这是一个独特的、尚未解决的失败。在 LongMemEval 的知识更新子集上,将代理的完整上下文替换为有限的自我维护记忆,准确率从 92% 降至 77%,即使在前沿模型(gpt-5.4)上,这一差距在统计上是显著的(配对 McNemar p<0.005),并且在模型规模上持续存在,而完整上下文的准确率接近 92% 达到饱和。因此,瓶颈在于记忆维护,而非理解,且更强的模型并不能弥补这一点。接着我们询问这是否仅仅是记忆不足,结果发现并非如此:随着对话增长 24 倍,准确率进一步下降(从 68% 降至 28%),而给予代理成比例更多的记忆并未带来可检测的恢复(28% 到 28%,n=25)。这一失败与对话的长度成比例,而非压缩比。我们发布了 Supersede,一个开放的强化学习环境(基于 verifiers / prime-rl 堆栈),将这一测量转化为训练信号:代理因使用当前值回答而获得奖励,因使用过时值回答而受到惩罚。最后,我们闭合循环,表明这一差距是可训练的:在该环境中对一个小型开放模型(Qwen2.5-3B)进行 GRPO 微调,几乎将其在真实、未见对话中的超越准确率几乎翻倍(9.0% 到 16.7%,单次运行),沿着单调的检查点曲线表明学习到的策略,而非环境本身,带来了收益。据我们所知,这是第一个奖励目标为时间性事实货币的可训练环境,也是第一个证据表明超越差距可以被训练缩小,而不仅仅是被测量。

The Context-Ready Transformer

上下文准备型变换器
Godavarti, Mahesh
Abstract
We introduce the context-ready transformer, a new recurrent neural network architecture built from a D-layer transformer block that pre-contextualizes each token before it enters the block. During left-to-right generation, a correction network combines the previous position's block output -- a cached summary of past context -- with the current token embedding, so the tokenenters the block already contextualized rather than as a raw embedding. At sequential inference, the correction chain makes the architecture a recurrent neural network. For training, we unroll the correction process K times over the full sequence, processing all positions in parallel at each step. A pretrained transformer can also be converted to a context-ready model by adding a zero-initialized correction FFN and fine-tuning. We evaluate across widths, depths, block sizes, and two datasets, with all comparisons against standard transformers, variants, and ablations. A D=5 model beats a 12-layer transformer while generating 1.7x faster on an A100. With K=10, a single-layermodel (D=1) beats a 6-layer transformer with a 2.6x inference speedup, and sequential inference matches parallel K=10 to within 0.01 PPL. The architecture benefits most from wide representations and long contexts.

我们提出了一种上下文准备型变换器,这是一种新的递归神经网络架构,由一个 D 层变换器模块构成,该模块在每个标记进入模块之前对其进行预上下文化处理。在从左到右的生成过程中,一个校正网络将前一个位置的模块输出(过去上下文的缓存摘要)与当前标记的嵌入结合,从而使标记在进入模块时已经具有上下文,而不是作为原始嵌入。在顺序推理中,校正链使得该架构成为递归神经网络。在训练时,我们在整个序列上展开校正过程 K 次,在每一步并行处理所有位置。预训练的变换器也可以通过添加一个零初始化的校正前馈网络(FFN)并进行微调来转换为上下文准备型模型。我们在宽度、深度、模块大小和两个数据集上进行了评估,所有比较均与标准变换器、变体和消融实验进行对比。D=5 的模型在 A100 上生成速度比 12 层变换器快 1.7 倍。对于 K=10,单层模型(D=1)在推理速度上比 6 层变换器快 2.6 倍,而顺序推理的结果与并行 K=10 的结果相差不超过 0.01 PPL。该架构最受益于宽表示和长上下文。在指针追踪任务中,使用 BPTT 训练的 D=1 模型解决了所有 10 个组合层次,而标准变换器则表现出阶梯状的深度依赖性。

EntMTP: Accelerating LLM Inference with Entropy Guided Multi Token Prediction

EntMTP:通过熵引导的多标记预测加速大规模语言模型推理
Chen, Carrie
Abstract
Multi-token prediction has been shown to increase data density during training, improve downstream text-generation quality, and serves as the defacto approach for self-speculative decoding. Existing foundation and open source models that use MTP heads commit to a static tree-based attention topology throughout the entire generation sequence, meaning the speculation depth, and thus the compute required during verification, stays constant regardless of the context. This is fundamentally misaligned with the entropy patterns of natural language where low-entropy regions often support reliable multi-step drafting, while high-entropy regions require more conservative speculation. To address this, we propose Entropy-guided Multi-Token Prediction (EntMTP), a training-free scheduler that toggles between tree-based attention topologies from a set of task-specific pareto-optimal trees conditioned on a running estimate of local generation entropy. By matching speculation depth to context predictability, EntMTP maximizes expected accepted-token throughput across the full distribution of generated text without sacrificing generation quality. When evaluated across Humaneval, ShareGPT, GSM8k, and Litbench benchmarks, EntMTP consistently achieves a 1.15x speedup against Hydra and peak speedup of 1.36x against Medusa baselines respectively.

多标记预测已被证明在训练过程中增加数据密度,提高下游文本生成质量,并作为自我推测解码的事实标准方法。现有的基础模型和开源模型使用 MTP(Multi-Token Prediction)头部在整个生成序列中承诺采用静态树状注意力拓扑,这意味着推测深度,因此在验证过程中所需的计算量保持不变,无论上下文如何。这与自然语言的熵模式根本不一致,其中低熵区域通常支持可靠的多步草拟,而高熵区域则需要更保守的推测。为了解决这个问题,我们提出了熵引导的多标记预测(Entropy-guided Multi-Token Prediction,EntMTP),这是一种无训练调度器,它在一组特定任务的帕累托最优树之间切换树状注意力拓扑,条件是基于局部生成熵的运行估计。通过将推测深度与上下文可预测性相匹配,EntMTP 在不牺牲生成质量的情况下,最大化了生成文本全分布中的预期接受标记吞吐量。在 Humaneval、ShareGPT、GSM8k 和 Litbench 基准测试中评估时,EntMTP 相较于 Hydra 一致性地实现了 1.15 倍的加速,并在 Medusa 基准测试中达到了最高 1.36 倍的加速。

Ko-WideSearch: A Korean Breadth-Search Benchmark for Exhaustive Set Enumeration by Web Agents

Ko-WideSearch:一个针对网络代理的韩语广度搜索基准,用于全面集合枚举
Jeong, Minbyul
Abstract
Web-agent benchmarks overwhelmingly measure depth -- pinning one obscure answer behind a chain of constraints -- while breadth, exhaustively enumerating a closed set and filling each item's attributes, is barely evaluated, especially outside English. Breadth is also hard to build: certifying that a gold set is complete and every cell correct is far costlier than checking a single answer. I introduce \textsc{Ko-WideSearch}, a Korean breadth-search benchmark built by an automated synthesize-and-verify pipeline. Each task names a set-parent entity -- a TV season, a dynasty, a league, an administrative region, an election -- and asks for its full membership plus a per-item attribute table, graded by Item-, Column-, and Row-F1. It spans 228 tables over 190 entities and sixteen categories across three difficulty tiers, set by two structural knobs I dial independently -- table width and a 2-D composite key -- so cross-product membership climbs from 0\% to 100\% across the tiers. A single normalization-aware comparator is shared between gold construction and grading, so stable date and count columns are not over-dropped on formatting alone. Across twenty web agents, the failure is consistent: agents recover the set but not the rows (e.g.\ Item-F1 92.8 against Row-F1 53.7), accuracy falls steadily as the knobs harden, and neither more search nor more spend closes the gap. Broken down by cell, the hard part is finding the right value, not formatting it: open-ended free-text cells fail most, while cells with a standard answer such as a date or a name usually come out right.

网络代理基准主要测量深度——将一个晦涩的答案固定在一系列约束条件后面——而广度,即全面枚举一个封闭集合并填充每个项目的属性,几乎没有得到评估,尤其是在英语以外的语言中。构建广度也很困难:验证一个黄金集合是否完整以及每个单元是否正确的成本远高于检查单个答案。我介绍了 extsc{Ko-WideSearch},这是一个通过自动合成和验证管道构建的韩语广度搜索基准。每个任务命名一个集合父实体——一个电视季、一段王朝、一个联盟、一个行政区域、一场选举——并要求提供其完整成员资格以及每个项目的属性表,评分标准为项目、列和行的 F1 值。该基准涵盖了 228 个表格,涉及 190 个实体和十六个类别,分为三个难度级别,由我独立调节的两个结构参数设定——表格宽度和一个二维复合键——因此交叉产品成员资格在各个级别之间从 0\% 上升到 100\%。一个单一的考虑归一化的比较器在黄金构建和评分之间共享,因此稳定的日期和计数列不会因格式问题而被过度丢弃。在二十个网络代理中,失败是一致的:代理能够恢复集合但无法恢复行(例如,项目 F1 为 92.8,而行 F1 为 53.7),随着参数的收紧,准确性稳步下降,更多的搜索或更多的支出都无法缩小差距。按单元划分,困难的部分是找到正确的值,而不是格式化:开放式自由文本单元失败最多,而具有标准答案的单元,如日期或名称,通常能够正确输出。

Narrative-UFET: Narrative Generation for Ultra-Fine Entity Typing

叙事-UFET:超细粒度实体类型生成
Gupta, Mreedul, Deshmukh, Advait, Umadi, Ashwin, Pauk, Matt, Pacheco, Maria Leonor
Abstract
Ultra-fine entity typing (UFET) assigns highly specific types to entity mentions, but current approaches struggle with types in the long tail. We hypothesize that a key limitation is the reliance on sentence-level context, since disambiguating evidence is often spread across multiple sentences. Testing this has been difficult because all existing UFET resources are sentence-level. We present Narrative-UFET, a controlled extension of UFET in which each entity mention is paired with an automatically generated short, coherent narrative. Synthesizing narratives lets us isolate the effect of specific discourse properties. We experiment with two paired variants: one in which the entity's type is held constant across the narrative (Maintain) and one in which it shifts (Change). We show that narrative context yields consistent improvements on long-tail types over sentence-level baselines, with the Change variant providing the stronger signal. A comparison against naturally occurring contexts shows that synthetic narratives yield stronger gains, indicating that controlled discourse construction can surface signals that real text leaves implicit. Substantial room for improvement remains, suggesting open directions in both discourse modeling and narrative construction.

超细粒度实体类型(UFET)为实体提及分配高度特定的类型,但当前的方法在处理长尾类型时面临困难。我们假设一个关键限制是对句子级上下文的依赖,因为消歧证据通常分散在多个句子中。测试这一假设一直很困难,因为所有现有的UFET资源都是句子级的。我们提出了叙事-UFET,这是UFET的一个受控扩展,其中每个实体提及都与自动生成的简短连贯叙事配对。合成叙事使我们能够隔离特定话语属性的影响。我们实验了两种配对变体:一种在叙事中保持实体类型不变(Maintain),另一种则发生变化(Change)。我们展示了叙事上下文在长尾类型上相较于句子级基线的一致性提升,其中Change变体提供了更强的信号。与自然发生的上下文比较表明,合成叙事带来了更强的增益,表明受控的话语构建能够揭示真实文本隐含的信号。仍有相当大的改进空间,这为话语建模和叙事构建的开放方向提供了建议。

Masked Language Flow Models

掩蔽语言流模型
Azangulov, Iskander, Ashouritaklimi, Kianoosh, Zhang, Leo, Vary, Simon, Rebeschini, Patrick
Abstract
Masked Diffusion Models (MDMs) promise fast, parallel language generation, but their reverse transition factorises across token positions -- an approximation that breaks down in the few-step sampling regime where parallel generation ought to provide the greatest efficiency gains. Flow Language Models (FLMs) sidestep this limitation by learning a continuous flow that transports noise toward clean sequences represented in Euclidean space, inducing a flow map that can be distilled for single-step generation. However, this makes complex tasks requiring multi-step reasoning problematic for FLMs, as FLMs are forced to decode every token during generation. To address this, we introduce Masked Language Flow Models (MLFMs), which incorporate masking into FLMs using a continuous stochastic interpolant to bridge partially masked and clean sequences. This design enables conditional generation via continuous flows and allows pretrained MDMs to be converted into MLFMs through a simple, lightweight adaptation. Leveraging this flexibility, we propose a novel sampler that alternates continuous denoising with the discrete unmasking of confident tokens to better support multi-step reasoning. We evaluate our approach on GSM8K and MT-Bench and find, for the first time, that flow-based language models can be scaled to solve downstream reasoning and instruction-following tasks.

掩蔽扩散模型(Masked Diffusion Models, MDMs)承诺实现快速、并行的语言生成,但其反向过渡在标记位置上进行因式分解——这一近似在少步采样模式下失效,而此时并行生成应提供最大的效率提升。流语言模型(Flow Language Models, FLMs)通过学习一种连续流来绕过这一限制,该流将噪声传输到在欧几里得空间中表示的干净序列,从而诱导出可以用于单步生成的流映射。然而,这使得需要多步推理的复杂任务对FLMs而言变得棘手,因为FLMs在生成过程中被迫解码每一个标记。为了解决这一问题,我们引入了掩蔽语言流模型(Masked Language Flow Models, MLFMs),该模型通过使用连续随机插值将掩蔽和干净序列连接起来,将掩蔽引入FLMs。这一设计使得通过连续流进行条件生成成为可能,并允许预训练的MDMs通过简单、轻量的适配转换为MLFMs。利用这一灵活性,我们提出了一种新颖的采样器,该采样器交替进行连续去噪和对自信标记的离散解掩蔽,以更好地支持多步推理。我们在GSM8K和MT-Bench上评估了我们的方法,首次发现基于流的语言模型可以扩展到解决下游推理和遵循指令的任务。

Cross-Platform Chinese Offensive Comment Detection via Dual-Threshold Hard Example Mining

基于双阈值困难样本挖掘的跨平台中文攻击性评论检测
Ren, Ruixing, Zhao, Junhui, Wang, Fangfang
Abstract
Cross-platform deployment of offensive comment detection for Chinese social media suffers performance degradation. The paper proposes a dual-threshold hard mining method to address this. First, the clean-Chinese-base RoBERTa is finetuned on COLD to establish a binary baseline for fair comparison. Second, a three-class fine-labeled test set covering Weibo, Xiaohongshu, Tieba, and Zhihu is constructed, domain distances from the source are quantified using Jaccard and Proxy-A Distance, as well as the degradation bottleneck of the baseline under domain shift is systematically revealed. Herein, a dual threshold hard example mining strategy is proposed. High- and low-confidence error-prone samples are filtered from unlabeled corpora by prediction confidence. The model is secondarily finetuned under implicit contexts with merely a small set of manually labeled hard examples, realizing low-cost cross-platform domain adaptation. Experiments reveal significant performance gains of the optimized model across four platforms.

Abstract
As large language models are increasingly deployed in real-world systems, safety failures can still lead to harmful outputs and dangerous misuse. We argue that the essence of safety is adversarial: many failures arise not from natural inputs alone, but from strategic attempts to evade model policies and safeguards. However, existing general-purpose model development largely overlook this adversarial nature, and often remain insufficient for realistic safety scenarios involving planning, tool use, and multi-step reasoning, causing measured safety performance to overestimate real deployment robustness. To address this gap, we present Yuvion LLM, a large language model built for adversarially robust content safety and broader AI safety. Yuvion LLM treats adversarial robustness and agentic capability as first-class objectives. Its pipeline combines adversarially aware data construction, knowledge-enhanced continued pretraining, and policy-grounded multi-task safety post-training, including risk-aware supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning-based policy optimization, together with safety-aware agentic reinforcement learning for tool use and multi-step reasoning in complex safety scenarios. We further introduce the Yuvion LLM RiskEval (YLRE), a collection of 93 benchmarks across four evaluation categories, covering diverse open and internal evaluations with a focus on safety, adversarial robustness, and real-world capability requirements. Across these evaluations, Yuvion LLM demonstrates clear advantages on safety-focused benchmarks and particularly strong robustness under adversarial conditions, while maintaining solid overall capability. Notably, Yuvion-8B outperforms most state-of-the-art baselines, including substantially larger models such as GPT-5.4 and Qwen3-MAX, on several safety tasks.

When Search Agents Should Ask: DiscoBench for Clarification-Aware Deep Search

搜索代理何时应提问:面向澄清意识的深度搜索基准DiscoBench
Tao, Yiling, Deng, Shihan, Tao, Meiling, Wei, Pengzhi, Hu, Zhichao, Zhu, Zhihao
Abstract
Search agents powered by large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to solve complex information-seeking tasks, requiring multi-step retrieval and reasoning to fulfill user goals. However, existing benchmarks often assume that user queries are complete and explicit, overlooking the fact that real-world search requests are frequently vague, underspecified, or even factually incorrect. In deep search scenarios, such ambiguity can propagate along multi-step reasoning chains and lead agents toward incorrect search trajectories. To address this gap, we introduce DiscoBench, a benchmark for clarification-aware deep search, designed to evaluate whether search agents can proactively identify ambiguity, ask effective clarification questions, and recover correct reasoning paths through user interaction. DiscoBench contains 211 samples and 463 ambiguity instances across 11 real-world domains, covering four ambiguity types. We further design a user simulator for multi-turn interaction and evaluate model performance from four perspectives: task utility, ambiguity detection, interaction strategy, and cost efficiency. Experiments on representative LLMs show that ambiguity detection and effective clarification are distinct capabilities, and that repeatedly searching instead of asking for clarification often performs worse than direct guessing, highlighting a critical gap between retrieval ability and interactive problem-solving in current search agents.

From Signals to Transfer: A Factorised Study of Probe-Based Uncertainty Estimation in Large Language Models

从信号到转移:基于探针的不确定性估计在大型语言模型中的分解研究
Srey, Ponhvoan, Wu, Xiaobao, Nguyen, Cong-Duy, Nguyen, Quang Minh, Vu, Duc Anh, Luu, Anh Tuan
Abstract
Probe-based uncertainty estimation (UE) has emerged as a prominent approach to detect hallucinations in Large Language Models (LLMs) by learning uncertainty from internal model signals. Yet, recent methods vary simultaneously across feature design, training data construction, and evaluation setting, obscuring what actually drives performance. To address this issue, we propose a factorised study of probe-based UE under matched conditions. Our results show that raw hidden states and attention features are difficult to outperform in-domain. However, under distribution shift, structured and compressed features are more robust, suggesting that in-domain performance alone is insufficient to measure progress. Furthermore, prompting and label construction significantly affect probe behaviour. Building on these best-practice findings, we train benchmark-based pretrained probes that transfer reasonably well to open-ended factual generation, providing a stable off-the-shelf baseline. Our work encourages more deployment-oriented evaluation of probe-based uncertainty estimators. The code repository is available at https://github.com/ponhvoan/ProbeUE.

Mitigating LLM-based p-Hacking by Preregistering for the Next LLM

通过预注册下一个大型语言模型来缓解基于大型语言模型的p-hacking
Thomas, Maria, Gligoric, Kristina, Shah, Nihar B.
Abstract
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to generate, classify, and annotate data whose outputs feed downstream hypothesis tests. However, LLM-based research is easy to p-hack: a researcher can tune the prompts, decoding parameters, or output format until a desired result is reached. We propose a protocol to mitigate p-hacking in LLM-based research: preregistering the experiment and eligible models, and then running it on the first eligible LLM that is released after the preregistration. The researcher finalizes the procedure on current models, preregisters the analysis plan together with a set of eligible future models, and runs the confirmatory analysis on the first eligible model released afterward. Because this model does not exist at commitment time, it cannot be hacked against; furthermore, configurations that hack one model frequently do not transfer to the next. We evaluate the protocol on two tasks whose true values are known. Across 20 models from four providers and 11 LLM-analysis configurations, the protocol would have blocked successful transfer of the p-hack in 73.9% and 72.7% of cases in the two tasks. Additional analyses reveal that mitigation remains substantial under several stress tests. Finally, putting money where our mouth is, we followed our own protocol and preregistered our experiment. The preregistered experiment confirmed the protocol's effectiveness: out of the 7 configurations that hacked the prior model, the hacking failed to carry over in 6 configurations on the first eligible model released afterward.

Mitigating Position Bias in Transformers via Layer-Specific Positional Embedding Scaling

通过层特定的位置信息嵌入缩放来减轻变换器中的位置偏差
Lv, Changze, Wang, Zhenghua, Ding, Yiran, Wu, Yixin, Li, Tianlong, Xu, Zhibo, Wu, Muling, Shi, Tianyuan, Li, Shizheng, Qian, Qi, Huang, Xuanjing, Zheng, Xiaoqing
Abstract
Large Language Models (LLMs) still struggle with the ``lost-in-the-middle'' problem, where critical information located in the middle of long-context inputs is often underrepresented or lost. While existing methods attempt to address this by combining multi-scale rotary position embeddings (RoPE), they typically suffer from high latency or rely on suboptimal hand-crafted scaling strategies. To overcome these limitations, we introduce a layer-specific positional embedding scaling~(LPES) method that assigns distinct scaling factors to each layer. LPES achieves a more balanced attention distribution without fine-tuning model parameters or increasing inference delay. A specially designed genetic algorithm is employed to efficiently select the optimal scaling factors for each layer by incorporating B\'{e}zier curves to significantly reduce the search space. Extensive experiments demonstrate that LPES effectively mitigates positional attention bias and delivers consistent improvements across multiple long-context benchmarks, yielding up to an $11.2$\% accuracy gain on the key-value retrieval dataset.

Low-Agreeableness Persona Conditioning for Safe LLM Fine-Tuning

低宜人性人格条件下的安全大型语言模型微调
Cheung, Austin MY, Yang, Yi
Abstract
Recent work has shown that fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) for social warmth degrades factual reliability and increases sycophancy. We investigate a related but distinct failure mode: warmth fine-tuning also weakens adversarial safety, making models more susceptible to jailbreaks and harmful output generation. We examine whether this reflects an inherent consequence of empathetic adaptation or an artifact of data construction. To address this, we introduce a persona-driven rewriting pipeline that conditions user turns on low agreeableness and pairs this with warm, de-escalating assistant responses. Across three experiments on four models, our approach reduces jailbreak susceptibility and harmful output rates relative to generic warmth fine-tuning baselines, while preserving conversational warmth. Representational probing provides suggestive evidence that this conditioning reduces the geometric alignment between warmth and compliance directions in latent space. These results show that safer empathetic fine-tuning is achievable through data design alone, without safety labels, harm detectors, or changes to the training objective.

Abstract
Prosodic emphasis varies across languages, emotions, and speaking styles, yet existing emphasis detection models are largely trained and evaluated on monolingual neutral read speech. We introduce MMEE (Multilingual Multi-Emotion Emphasis), a corpus of 10,000 professionally recorded expressive utterances (14.13 hours) across 7 languages and 34 emotion/style categories, with three-level perceptual labels (10 annotations per sample). We benchmark two state-of-the-art architectures under monolingual, cross-lingual, multilingual, cross-emotion, cross-dataset, and data-scale settings. Monolingual models show limited zero-shot transfer, degrading across typologically distant languages, while multilingual training substantially improves robustness. Models transfer robustly between high- and low-arousal emotions; bidirectional transfer between synthetic and perceptual benchmarks suggests shared prosodic structure; and performance stays robust even at smaller training scales.

Enhancing Numerical Prediction in LLMs via Smooth MMD Alignment

通过平滑最大均值差异对齐增强大语言模型中的数值预测
Zuo, Zhuo, Yue, Li, Zheng, Wenhao, Wang, Chenpeng, Liu, Xianggen
Abstract
Despite their strong general capabilities, large language models (LLMs) often remain unreliable when outputs must be numerically precise. A key reason is the training objective: standard cross-entropy treats numeric tokens as unstructured categories and ignores the metric structure of their values. We address this mismatch with Smooth Maximum Mean Discrepancy (SMMD), which builds on the classic MMD by incorporating value-distance kernels over numeric tokens and graph-based smoothness. With this kernel defined over a numeric sub-vocabulary, SMMD aligns the predicted numeric distribution to the target via kernel matching and smooths the prediction-target residual over the induced kernel graph to encourage local consistency. We evaluate SMMD on four numeric-target tasks: mathematical reasoning, arithmetic calculation, clock-time recognition, and chart question answering, across multiple open-weight LLM and VLM backbones. SMMD consistently improves accuracy over both cross-entropy and recent numeric-target losses; analyses show complementary effects between MMD and smoothness and underscore the importance of distance-based kernel design.

尽管大语言模型(LLMs)具有强大的通用能力,但在需要数值精确的输出时,它们往往仍然不可靠。一个关键原因在于训练目标:标准的交叉熵将数值标记视为非结构化类别,并忽视了其值的度量结构。我们通过平滑最大均值差异(Smooth Maximum Mean Discrepancy, SMMD)来解决这一不匹配问题,该方法在经典的最大均值差异(MMD)基础上,结合了数值标记的值距离核和基于图的平滑性。通过在数值子词汇表上定义该核,SMMD通过核匹配将预测的数值分布与目标对齐,并在诱导的核图上平滑预测与目标的残差,以促进局部一致性。我们在四个数值目标任务上评估SMMD:数学推理、算术计算、时钟时间识别和图表问答,涵盖多个开放权重的LLM和VLM骨干网络。SMMD在准确性上始终优于交叉熵和近期的数值目标损失;分析表明MMD和平滑性之间存在互补效应,并强调了基于距离的核设计的重要性。代码可在 https://github.com/Zuozhuo/smmd-loss 获取。

KG2Cypher: Data-Centric Pipeline for Building Enterprise Text-to-Cypher Systems

KG2Cypher:构建企业文本到Cypher系统的数据驱动管道
Choi, Minjun, Kim, Yerin, Seo, Junghyuk, Mo, Sujin, Lee, Hyemin, Ko, Youngjoong
Abstract
Enterprise Knowledge Graphs (KGs) are increasingly used for internal search, analytics, and question answering, but building natural-language interfaces for private enterprise graphs remains costly. We present KG2Cypher, a data-centric pipeline for building enterprise text-to-Cypher systems from existing KGs. KG2Cypher first constructs an executable Cypher query from observed graph facts and then uses LLMs to generate its associated natural-language question. The resulting Text-Cypher pairs are validated with an LLM judge and human validation, and are converted into candidate-aware SFT data. The trained generator is served with class-conditioned schema prompting, entity retrieval, and LoRA-based inference. We evaluate KG2Cypher in Korean enterprise settings, where short search-style queries and schema paraphrases make language grounding difficult. LoRA SFT improves execution-result F1 from 0.806 to 0.950 on broadcast-program queries and from 0.70 to 0.92 on company queries. In an 11-class setting, KG2Cypher achieves 95.2% exact match, 99.9% execution rate, and 0.964 execution-result F1.

Output-Space Allocation Costs for Calibration-Guided LLM Compression: An Empirical Study

基于校准指导的LLM压缩的输出空间分配成本:一项实证研究
Tang, Qiong, Hu, Xiangkun, Liu, Xiangyang, Chen, Yiran, Shao, Yunfan
Abstract
Training-free compression methods for large language models (LLMs) often use calibration data to guide compression decisions. ROCKET, a recent method combining sparse-dictionary factorization with multi-choice knapsack problem (MCKP) allocation, derives its per-layer factorization from an output reconstruction objective but uses weight-space Frobenius error as the MCKP allocation cost. We investigate whether aligning the allocation cost with the output-space objective improves compressed model fidelity. On Qwen3-8B at 50\% compression, our ROCKET-ActCost achieves +0.8 percentage points higher average accuracy across 8 zero-shot benchmarks (53.1\% vs 52.3\%), but increases WikiText perplexity by 16\% (61.46 vs 52.98). This accuracy-perplexity tradeoff reveals that different allocation objectives favor different downstream metrics. The high correlation ($>$0.99) between weight-space and output-space errors limits allocation divergence, explaining the modest effect size. On Llama-3.2-1B at 20\% compression, the two methods produce near-identical results (53.3\% vs 53.5\% accuracy, 14.45 vs 14.66 PPL), suggesting that the effect of the cost function is minor at lower compression ratios.

无训练压缩方法用于大型语言模型(LLMs)通常利用校准数据来指导压缩决策。ROCKET是一种新近提出的方法,它结合了稀疏字典分解与多选择背包问题(MCKP)分配,其每层的分解源于输出重构目标,但使用权重空间的Frobenius误差作为MCKP分配成本。我们研究了将分配成本与输出空间目标对齐是否能提高压缩模型的保真度。在Qwen3-8B模型上以50%的压缩率,我们的ROCKET-ActCost在8个零样本基准测试中实现了平均准确率提高0.8个百分点(53.1%对比52.3%),但WikiText的困惑度增加了16%(61.46对比52.98)。这种准确率与困惑度的权衡揭示了不同的分配目标有利于不同的下游指标。权重空间与输出空间误差之间的高相关性(>0.99)限制了分配的差异,解释了效果大小的适度。在Llama-3.2-1B模型上以20%的压缩率,两种方法产生了几乎相同的结果(准确率53.3%对比53.5%,困惑度14.45对比14.66),这表明在较低压缩比下成本函数的影响较小。

SHIFT: Gate-Modulated Activation Steering for Knowledge Conflict Mitigation in Retrieval-Augmented Generation

SHIFT:用于缓解检索增强生成中的知识冲突的门控调制激活引导
Li, Ruochang, Huang, Pengcheng, Liu, Zhenghao, Yan, Yukun, Xie, Huiyuan, Gu, Yu, Yu, Ge, Sun, Maosong
Abstract
Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enhances LLMs by incorporating external knowledge to support response generation. However, conflicts between retrieved context and parametric knowledge have emerged as a critical challenge in RAG systems. To mitigate such conflicts, numerous studies have attempted to identify and edit knowledge-related internal neurons, aiming to improve the ability of LLMs to rely on contextual evidence during generation. However, these neuron-level approaches may introduce unintended cascading effects that compromise the general capabilities of LLMs, as the modified neurons are often entangled with broader model behaviors and functionalities. In this paper, we introduce SHIFT, a novel framework that reformulates neuron-level modification as learnable gate modulation, allowing LLMs to adaptively regulate internal activations for knowledge conflict resolution. Technically, our SHIFT equips LLMs with a lightweight gate module and optimizes fewer than 0.01% trainable parameters while keeping the backbone model frozen. During generation, the gate module adjusts the model's internal representations to adaptively leverage contextual and parametric knowledge. Extensive experiments on six datasets validate the effectiveness of our SHIFT in comparison with various competing baselines. All datasets and code are available at https://github.com/OpenBMB/SHIFT.

检索增强生成(RAG)通过结合外部知识来增强大型语言模型(LLMs),以支持响应生成。然而,检索到的上下文与参数知识之间的冲突已成为RAG系统中的一个关键挑战。为了缓解这些冲突,许多研究尝试识别和编辑与知识相关的内部神经元,旨在提高LLMs在生成过程中依赖上下文证据的能力。然而,这些神经元级别的方法可能引入意想不到的级联效应,从而损害LLMs的整体能力,因为被修改的神经元通常与更广泛的模型行为和功能交织在一起。在本文中,我们介绍了SHIFT,一个新颖的框架,将神经元级别的修改重新构建为可学习的门控调制,使LLMs能够自适应地调节内部激活以解决知识冲突。从技术上讲,我们的SHIFT为LLMs配备了一个轻量级的门控模块,并优化了不到0.01%的可训练参数,同时保持主干模型不变。在生成过程中,门控模块调整模型的内部表示,以自适应地利用上下文和参数知识。在六个数据集上的大量实验验证了我们SHIFT的有效性,并与各种竞争基线进行了比较。所有数据集和代码均可在https://github.com/OpenBMB/SHIFT获取。

NLL-Guided Full-Attention Layer Selection for Training-Free Sliding-Window Adaptation

基于NLL引导的全注意力层选择用于无训练的滑动窗口适应
Tang, Qiong, Hu, Xiangkun, Liu, Xiangyang, Chen, Yiran, Shao, Yunfan
Abstract
Hybrid attention models that mix full and sliding-window attention across layers offer a promising approach to efficient long-context inference, but the critical question of \emph{which layers} should retain full attention remains unsolved. Existing methods use either fixed periodic patterns or attention-based heuristics that may not capture what matters for downstream accuracy. We propose NLL-guided layer selection, a training-free method that directly measures each layer's importance by computing the negative log-likelihood degradation on answer tokens when that layer uses sliding-window instead of full attention. On LongMemEval with Qwen3-4B, our method achieves 64.6\% accuracy using only 1/4 full-attention layers, matching the 1/2-FA periodic baseline (65.0\%) while halving the computational budget. NLL-guided selection outperforms the SWAA-reported periodic 1/4-FA baseline by 10.4 percentage points and a matched LightTransfer-style baseline by 26.4 percentage points. De-confounding analysis shows the signal is consistent with long-range attention needs rather than generic layer sensitivity. The method requires only $\sim$15 minutes of one-time calibration, advancing the efficiency-accuracy Pareto frontier for long-context LLM deployment.

Position Bias Correction is Insufficient for One-Pass Attention Sorting

位置偏差校正不足以实现一次性注意力排序
Tang, Qiong, Hu, Xiangkun, Liu, Xiangyang, Chen, Yiran, Shao, Yunfan
Abstract
Long-context language models suffer from position bias, where information in middle positions is underutilized. Attention Sorting addresses this by iteratively reordering documents based on attention patterns, but its multiple sort-and-generate cycles increase deployment cost. We hypothesize that position bias is the primary bottleneck and propose Debiased One-Pass Attention Sorting, which estimates a per-prompt position-bias curve from the low-attention majority of documents and uses it to correct raw attention scores (via subtraction or division) to enable single-pass sorting. Our experiments on two models refute this hypothesis in the tested setting: on LLaMA-2-7B-32K-Instruct, debiasing produces identical results to uncalibrated single-pass sorting (94.83\% containment accuracy), while on YaRN-Llama-2-7b-64k, debiasing improves accuracy by 8.67 percentage points but remains 14.84pp behind iterative sorting, closing only 37\% of the gap. These results suggest that position-bias correction is insufficient to match iterative sorting, and that repeated reordering provides additional benefits beyond bias correction.

长上下文语言模型存在位置偏差的问题,其中中间位置的信息被利用不足。注意力排序通过基于注意力模式迭代地重新排序文档来解决这一问题,但其多次排序和生成周期增加了部署成本。我们假设位置偏差是主要瓶颈,并提出了去偏置的一次性注意力排序(Debiased One-Pass Attention Sorting),该方法从低注意力的多数文档中估计每个提示的位置信息偏差曲线,并利用该曲线通过减法或除法来校正原始注意力分数,以实现单次排序。我们在两个模型上的实验反驳了这一假设:在 LLaMA-2-7B-32K-Instruct 上,去偏置的结果与未校准的一次性排序相同(94.83% 的包含准确率),而在 YaRN-Llama-2-7b-64k 上,去偏置提高了准确率 8.67 个百分点,但仍比迭代排序落后 14.84 个百分点,仅缩小了 37% 的差距。这些结果表明,位置偏差校正不足以与迭代排序相匹配,而重复的重新排序提供了超出偏差校正的额外好处。

Learning Complementary Action Modeling from Automotive Maintenance Instructions

从汽车维护说明中学习互补动作建模
Wu, Jiaqi, Li, Bai, Hartmann, Jochen, Gaedke, Martin, Stuijk, Sander
Abstract
A minute lexical variation can reverse the procedural meaning of an instruction even when the rest of the sentence remains unchanged. In automotive maintenance instructions, this pattern often appears when an action phrase turns an instruction into its procedural counterpart. The entities, modifiers, and surrounding context remain largely invariant, while the action phrase determines the procedural relation. We define this task as Complementary Action Modeling (CAM). Given a maintenance instruction, the goal is to identify or generate its procedural counterpart by modifying the action phrase while preserving the remaining sentence context. This task focuses on three aspects: distinguishing complementarity from surface similarity, controlling generation at the action-phrase level, and evaluating relational correctness using retrieval, overlap-based, and human evaluation. Using a German automotive maintenance dataset, we examine these questions through candidate matching and controlled Seq2Seq generation. The results show that complementary maintenance instructions are best modeled as procedural associations grounded in subtle lexical cues. They should therefore not be treated as ordinary cases of sentence similarity or synonym-based paraphrasing.

一个微小的词汇变化可以逆转指令的程序意义,即使句子的其余部分保持不变。在汽车维护说明中,当一个动作短语将指令转变为其程序对应物时,这种模式经常出现。实体、修饰语和周围的上下文基本保持不变,而动作短语决定了程序关系。我们将这一任务定义为互补动作建模(Complementary Action Modeling, CAM)。给定一条维护指令,目标是通过修改动作短语来识别或生成其程序对应物,同时保留剩余的句子上下文。该任务关注三个方面:区分互补性与表面相似性、在动作短语层面控制生成,以及使用检索、重叠基础和人工评估来评估关系的正确性。通过使用德国汽车维护数据集,我们通过候选匹配和受控的Seq2Seq生成来研究这些问题。结果表明,互补的维护指令最好被建模为基于细微词汇线索的程序关联。因此,它们不应被视为普通的句子相似性或基于同义词的释义案例。

A Study of Temporal Fusion Strategies for Named Entity Recognition in Historical Texts

历史文本中命名实体识别的时间融合策略研究
Boros, Emanuela
Abstract
Temporal variation poses a unique challenge for named entity recognition (NER) in historical texts, where entities drift in surface form and salience across time. While language models (LMs) have made progress in various NLP tasks, their ability to reason about temporality, especially in diachronic contexts, remains limited or at least, questionable. In this paper, we systematically study how temporal metadata can be structurally embedded into NER models using a range of lightweight fusion strategies. We experiment with both absolute and relative temporal representations, injected into Transformer-based architectures via early or late fusion mechanisms such as cross-attention, adapters, and concatenation. Our evaluations on French and German historical datasets reveal that late fusion strategies yield more robust and temporally generalisable performance, particularly in early and noisy periods.

Triadic Werewolf: A Jester Role for Multi-Hop Theory of Mind in LLMs

三方狼人:大型语言模型中的小丑角色与多跳心智理论
Mittal, Avni
Abstract
Theory-of-mind evaluations of large language models typically use dyadic social-deduction games, where every observable cue points to a single hidden side, so a model with strong language priors can score well without ever simulating opponents' incentives. We extend the Werewolf game with a Jester, a third faction whose utility on peer suspicion is inverted because it wins by being voted out, so optimal play requires reasoning across three opposing utility functions. Across 60 games on GPT-4.1, DeepSeek-V3.1, and Llama-3.3-70B with Jester self-learning on and off, the Jester wins 60-70% of games while Werewolves never exceed 20%, and GPT-4.1 wolves vote the Jester out on day 1 in 60-70% of games, a strictly self-defeating action. Self-learning helps DeepSeek and Llama but hurts GPT-4.1, with the cost landing on Villagers rather than Werewolves. Only DeepSeek learns the subtle strategy of looking suspicious without looking intentionally suspicious, and it gains the most from the loop. Triadic incentive structure exposes a layer of multi-agent reasoning that dyadic deduction games leave invisible.

VASAE: Naming SAE Dictionary Directions with Vocabulary-Aligned Anchoring

VASAE:通过词汇对齐锚定命名稀疏自编码器字典方向
Zhang, Kairui, Yu, Ziwen, Abdallah, Zahraa S., Lewis, Martha
Abstract
Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) provide useful decompositions of Transformer residual streams, but their learned features are usually named post hoc rather than directly connected to the Transformer's token vocabulary. We introduce Vocabulary-Aligned Sparse Autoencoder (VASAE), a method that trains SAE features under vocabulary-aligned anchoring and assigns each feature an intrinsic token name: the token string whose embedding is nearest to that feature. Without reducing reconstruction quality compared with a standard SAE, VASAE produces dictionaries with vocabulary-aligned features. Using a 0.8 cutoff on the nearest-token alignment score, dictionaries trained on GPT-2-small post-residual streams align about 90% of features in layers 0--10. In Llama-3.1-8B, representative shallow and middle-layer dictionaries contain strongly aligned features, including 92.8% in the shallow layer, while the representative final-layer dictionary shows limited alignment. After subtracting the sentence-level mean sparse code, case studies show that many remaining intrinsic token names are relevant to nearby input tokens. These results suggest that vocabulary-aligned anchoring can connect learned features to intrinsic token names during training, complementing post hoc interpretation of learned dictionaries.

稀疏自编码器(SAEs)为Transformer残差流提供了有用的分解,但它们学习到的特征通常是事后命名,而不是直接与Transformer的标记词汇相关联。我们提出了词汇对齐稀疏自编码器(VASAE),一种在词汇对齐锚定下训练SAE特征的方法,并为每个特征分配一个内在的标记名称:与该特征的嵌入最接近的标记字符串。在与标准SAE相比不降低重构质量的情况下,VASAE生成了具有词汇对齐特征的字典。使用0.8的最近标记对齐分数截止值,在GPT-2-small的残差流上训练的字典在层0-10中对齐了约90%的特征。在Llama-3.1-8B中,代表性的浅层和中层字典包含强对齐特征,包括浅层中的92.8%,而代表性的最终层字典显示出有限的对齐。在减去句子级均值稀疏编码后,案例研究表明,许多剩余的内在标记名称与附近的输入标记相关。这些结果表明,词汇对齐锚定可以在训练期间将学习到的特征与内在标记名称连接起来,补充了对学习字典的事后解释。

An Empirical Analysis of Factual Errors in Human-Written Text and its Application

人类撰写文本中事实错误的实证分析及其应用
Iwamoto, Kazuma, Omura, Kazumasa, Ishihara, Shotaro
Abstract
Factual Error Detection (FED), which is the task of identifying factually incorrect spans in a given text, has long been recognized as an important research problem. However, with the rapid rise of large language models (LLMs), research attention has shifted toward factual errors specific to LLM-generated text (hallucinations) and their detection. As a result, the detection of factual errors in human-written text has been relatively neglected. To address this gap, we first distill a taxonomy of human-induced factual errors by analyzing corrections of newspaper articles, a representative source of text that is guaranteed to be human-written and contains few grammatical errors. Our analysis revealed that there are characteristic categories such as kanji misconversions and numeral classifier errors, which are not focused in existing hallucination benchmarks. Based on the taxonomy, we then evaluate the FED capability of vanilla LLMs on synthesized realistic test cases and real corrections. Experimental results demonstrated that even high-performance LLMs such as GPT-5.4 achieved only word-level F1 score of 52% on the synthetic evaluation data, highlighting the task difficulty. Furthermore, a detailed analysis by detection difficulty revealed the current state of FED.

Abstract
Speech-based cognitive impairment detection offers a noninvasive, accessible alternative to costly biomarker assays, yet transformer-based models remain clinically uninterpretable. We propose a multi-stage explainability framework that translates black-box transformer predictions into clinically grounded narratives by integrating SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP)-based token attribution, theory-informed linguistic features, and a four-stage LLM reasoning pipeline using LLaMA-3.1-70B-Instruct. Built on the SpeechCARE-Adaptive Gating Network multimodal screening model (F1 = 72.11% on the NIA PREPARE benchmark), the framework maps model outputs to four cognitive-linguistic dimensions, including lexical richness, syntactic complexity, and semantic coherence. Physician evaluation on 70 stratified English samples demonstrated strong alignment with patient-level cognitive profiles, and a System Usability Scale score of 82/100 indicated high potential for clinical workflow integration.

ToxiREX: A Dataset on Toxic REasoning in ConteXt

ToxiREX:上下文中的有毒推理数据集
Schouten, Stefan F., Markov, Ilia, Vossen, Piek
Abstract
We introduce a new, contextual, multilingual dataset called ToxiREX: Toxic REasoning in ConteXt. The dataset consists of threads of Reddit comments and structured characterizations of what the comments imply, following a systematic toxic reasoning schema developed in a previous paper. Using the schema allows us to capture and explain implicit and context-dependent toxicity, while supporting mappings to existing toxicity taxonomies. The dataset includes comments in six languages (English, Arabic, Turkish, Spanish, German, and Dutch), collected from posts connected to specific major events (e.g. the 2023 Turkey earthquakes; the Russian invasion of Ukraine). We describe the context-preserving preprocessing of the threads. We create a training set of 125 thousand comments which is annotated by a commercially available LLM, and a test set of just under three thousand comments that is annotated by native speakers. We show that apparent disagreements in the test set annotations often reflect defensible alternative interpretations rather than noise. Finally, we provide baseline results by prompting and fine-tuning language models. To produce these results, we develop evaluation strategies for our hierarchical, schema-based predictions. While models perform better than random, there remains a lot of room for improvement, showing the task to be challenging. ToxiREX is the first dataset to simultaneously incorporate multiple languages, conversational context, and implicit toxicity, while using the toxic reasoning schema for rich, structured annotations.

Dialogue to Detection: A Multimodal Hybrid NLP Pipeline for Insurance Fraud Detection

对话到检测:一种用于保险欺诈检测的多模态混合自然语言处理管道
Akram, Muhammad Shakeel, Htait, Amal, Sadka, Abdul Hamid, Meisingseth, Emma, Jaitly, Karishma
Abstract
Insurance fraud imposes substantial financial losses and operational inefficiencies, raising premiums and impacting trust among legitimate policyholders. Early detection at FNOL remains a persistent challenge. Existing approaches rely largely on private, text-only datasets, limiting progress on multimodal methods that integrate linguistic, behavioural, and speaker-based indicators. We introduce a synthetic multimodal framework that replicates FNOL conditions. It generates agent-customer dialogue transcripts and two-speaker audios, performs ASR and diarisation. Downstream modules combine NER, regex-based feature extraction, LLM-RAG retrieval, and speaker embeddings in a rule-based risk score to flag narrative reuse, structural inconsistencies, and cross-case voice repetition while balancing sensitivity and false positives. Dataset validation and component-level evaluations show stability and transfer potential, offering a reproducible baseline beyond text-only fraud detection.

Abstract
Headline type-correctness (TC\%) of LLM autoformalization has climbed from $\sim$53\% to $\sim$76\% in two years, yet this scalar conceals which errors each method resolves. We propose a signal-coverage matrix that crosses the Lean elaborator (pass/fail) with a semantic-equivalence judgment (equivalent/not), sorting every output into one of four cells: true success (TS), type-only (TO), semantic-only (SO), or both fail (BF). On ProofNet\# and MiniF2F-test with DeepSeek V4-Pro across Vanilla, Lean-Retry, Sample-Filter, and Stratified Autoformalization (SAF): (1) the +34 to +36 TS gain across the three elab-feedback methods is $\sim$64\% type-stratum recovery, with SO flat on net (87.5\% of original semantic errors rescued, 8 newly created). (2) The TO-to-TS rate is 23/61 for each method (Wilson 95\% CI [26.6\%, 50.3\%]), and this stratum-level recovery rate predicts $\Delta$TS on held-out methods to within 2/186 and renders $\Delta$TC linear in the Vanilla elab-fail rate across six (model, dataset) cells ($R^2=0.96$). (3) The two judges disagree by 26 to 37 pp on elab-feedback outputs (vs. 7 pp on Vanilla), with 30 to 56\% of symbolic-judge false negatives traceable to elaborator-forced rewrites. The persistent residual reduces to two gold-formalization errors. TC\% gains should be credited by which cell moved, not by the scalar alone.

在过去两年中,大型语言模型(LLM)自动形式化的标题类型正确率(TC\%)从约53\%上升至约76\%,然而这一标量掩盖了每种方法解决的具体错误。我们提出了一种信号覆盖矩阵,将Lean elaborator(通过/失败)与语义等价判断(等价/不等价)相交, 将每个输出分类到四个单元格之一:真正成功(TS)、仅类型(TO)、仅语义(SO)或均失败(BF)。在ProofNet\#和MiniF2F-test上,使用DeepSeek V4-Pro进行Vanilla、Lean-Retry、Sample-Filter和分层自动形式化(SAF)的实验结果显示:(1)在三种elab反馈方法中,TS的增益为+34到+36,约为64\%的类型分层恢复,SO的净变化持平(87.5\%的原始语义错误被挽救,新增8个错误)。 (2)每种方法的TO到TS的比率为23/61(Wilson 95\%置信区间[26.6\%, 50.3\%]),这一分层恢复率可预测在保留方法上的$ abla$TS误差为2/186,并使$ abla$TC在六个(模型,数据集)单元格的Vanilla elab失败率中呈线性关系($R^2=0.96$)。 (3)两位评审在elab反馈输出上的意见分歧为26到37个百分点(而在Vanilla上为7个百分点),其中30到56\%的符号评审假阴性可追溯至elaborator强制重写。持久的残差减少到两个黄金形式化错误。TC\%的增益应根据移动的单元格进行归因,而不仅仅依赖于标量。

A Tree-of-Thoughts Inspired Hybrid Approach for Legal Case Judgement Summarization using LLMs

一种受思维树启发的混合方法用于法律案例判决摘要生成,基于大型语言模型(LLMs)
Deroy, Aniket, Ghosh, Kripabandhu, Ghosh, Saptarshi
Abstract
In recent times, Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly being used for legal case judgement summarization. Most prior works have tried traditional extractive and abstractive summarization of case judgements. However, hybrid or extractive-abstractive techniques have not been explored much. In this work, we propose a novel tree-of-thoughts inspired extractive-abstractive summarization approach for legal judgement summarization. We conduct experiments using two popular LLMs, DeepSeek and LLama, and compare among extractive, abstractive and extractive-abstractive summarization. Our experiments show that the proposed extractive-abstractive prompt provides better summaries compared to other types of LLM prompts.

Can LLMs Judge Better Than They Generate? Evaluating Task Asymmetry, Mechanistic Interpretability and Transferability for In-Context QA

大型语言模型能否比生成更好地进行判断?评估上下文问答中的任务不对称性、机制可解释性和迁移性
Bandyopadhyay, Sambaran
Abstract
LLM-as-a-Judge and self-evaluation pipelines implicitly assume that evaluation is easier than generation. We test this in a controlled in-context QA setting where a context passage is the sole information source and each model judges the answer it generated, removing the parametric-knowledge confound of open-domain comparisons. Across four benchmarks (SQuAD 2.0, DROP, HotpotQA, MuSiQue) and two models, evaluation is not uniformly easier: generation accuracy exceeds self-evaluation on three of four, with multi-hop MuSiQue the exception. Attention analysis reveals why: evaluation attends to context 3--5x less than generation does and barely reads the candidate answer. LoRA fine-tuning confirms the asymmetry is not a training artifact: generation fine-tuning induces over-acceptance and evaluation fine-tuning degrades generation. These findings challenge core assumptions in self-evaluation pipelines.

将大型语言模型(LLM)作为判断者和自我评估流程隐含地假设评估比生成更容易。我们在一个受控的上下文问答环境中测试这一假设,其中上下文段落是唯一的信息来源,每个模型评估其生成的答案,从而消除了开放领域比较中的参数知识混淆。在四个基准测试(SQuAD 2.0、DROP、HotpotQA、MuSiQue)和两个模型中,评估并不总是更容易:在四个基准中,生成准确性在三项中超过自我评估,只有多跳的MuSiQue是例外。注意力分析揭示了原因:评估对上下文的关注程度比生成少3到5倍,并且几乎没有阅读候选答案。LoRA微调确认这种不对称性并非训练伪影:生成微调导致过度接受,而评估微调则降低了生成效果。这些发现挑战了自我评估流程中的核心假设。

MultiHashFormer: Hash-based Generative Language Models

MultiHashFormer:基于哈希的生成语言模型
Xue, Huiyin, Yamaguchi, Atsuki, Aletras, Nikolaos
Abstract
Language models (LMs) represent tokens using embedding matrices that scale linearly with the vocabulary size. To constrain the parameter footprint, prior work proposes hashing many tokens into a single vector within encoder-only models. While this offers parameter efficiency, many-to-one collisions prevent its use in causal LMs. In this paper, we propose MultiHashFormer, a new framework that allows hash-based autoregression. Each token is represented as a unique hash signature, a short sequence of discrete hash IDs, generated by multiple independent hash functions. A Hash Encoder compresses this signature into a single latent vector for processing by a Transformer decoder. Then, a Hash Decoder generates the hash signature of the next token, which is then mapped back to text. We evaluate our approach at the 100M, 1B and 3B parameter scales, demonstrating that MultiHashFormer consistently outperforms standard Transformer LMs across multiple benchmarks. Furthermore, we show that our model handles multilingual vocabulary expansion with a constant parameter footprint without any modifications.

语言模型(LMs)使用嵌入矩阵表示标记,其规模与词汇表大小线性相关。为了限制参数占用,之前的研究提出在仅编码器模型中将多个标记哈希为单个向量。尽管这提供了参数效率,但多对一的冲突阻止了其在因果语言模型中的使用。本文提出了MultiHashFormer,一个允许基于哈希的自回归的新框架。每个标记被表示为一个独特的哈希签名,即由多个独立哈希函数生成的一短序列离散哈希ID。哈希编码器将该签名压缩为一个单一的潜在向量,以供Transformer解码器处理。然后,哈希解码器生成下一个标记的哈希签名,并将其映射回文本。我们在100M、1B和3B参数规模下评估了我们的方法,结果表明MultiHashFormer在多个基准测试中始终优于标准Transformer语言模型。此外,我们还展示了我们的模型在不进行任何修改的情况下,能够以恒定的参数占用处理多语言词汇扩展。

Mechanism-Driven Monitors for Preemptive Detection of LLM Training Instability

基于机制驱动的监测器用于预防性检测大语言模型训练不稳定性
Huang, Ruixuan, Wang, Yipei, Fang, Wenyi, Huang, Hantao, Huang, Yifan, You, Ansheng, Zhang, Zhenxing, Wang, Shuai, Wu, Fan, Zheng, Yang
Abstract
Frontier large language model training consumes massive accelerator fleets and long wall-clock computation, making stability failures costly when they occur. After a numerical or a hyperparameter fault has already destabilized the training dynamics, it may continue for thousands of steps while loss and gradient norms still appear normal. We study mechanism-driven detection of training instability by deriving internal monitors from the functional role of each critical module and from the earliest computational sites where failures are expected to produce measurable signatures. For low-precision flash attention, we monitor the spectral entropy of a QK bilinear decomposition, whose first-order term becomes abnormal before the loss fully collapses. For MoE routers, we derive indicators from their role in expert selection. Our fault-injection experiments on low-precision attention, large learning-rate, and combined faults show that these signals provide distinct signatures for different failures, triggering thousands of steps before loss divergence.

From Tokens to States: LLMs as a Special Case of World Models and the Continuous Path Beyond

从标记到状态:大型语言模型作为世界模型的特例及其持续发展路径
Dubois, Paul
Abstract
The AI community has framed the relationship between large language models (LLMs) and world models as a dichotomy: LLMs predict tokens; world models simulate reality. Yann LeCun argues in 2022 that reaching general intelligence requires abandoning autoregressive token prediction in favour of latent-space architectures. This framing is unnecessarily binary. Two claims will be defended. First, LLMs are a degenerate special case of world models: the state space is the set of all token sequences, the only action is appending one token, and world models are therefore a strict generalisation of LLMs, not a replacement. Second, there is a natural continuous spectrum from NTP to JEPA, with multi-token prediction, future-summary prediction, and next-latent prediction as intermediate stations already populated by current research. Moving along this spectrum relaxes the LLM constraints one by one. It also progressively surrenders the two practical advantages that make LLMs trainable at scale: internet-scale self-supervised data, and a transformer architecture co-designed for discrete token prediction. Both are examined as open research questions: the data question (the cliff from self-supervised text to instrumented action-labelled environments) and the architecture question (whether the transformer generalises to continuous-state prediction, or whether a new primitive is needed).

人工智能界将大型语言模型(LLMs)与世界模型之间的关系框定为一种二元对立:LLMs 预测标记;世界模型模拟现实。Yann LeCun 在 2022 年指出,实现通用智能需要放弃自回归标记预测,转而采用潜在空间架构。这种框架是不必要的二元化。本文将辩护两个观点。首先,LLMs 是世界模型的一个退化特例:状态空间是所有标记序列的集合,唯一的动作是附加一个标记,因此世界模型是 LLMs 的严格推广,而不是替代。其次,从 NTP 到 JEPA 存在一个自然的连续谱,其中多标记预测、未来摘要预测和下一个潜在预测作为中间站,已经被当前研究所填充。沿着这个谱移动逐步放宽 LLM 的约束。同时,它也逐渐放弃了使 LLM 可大规模训练的两个实际优势:互联网规模的自监督数据,以及为离散标记预测共同设计的变换器架构。这两者都被视为开放的研究问题:数据问题(从自监督文本到带有工具化动作标签环境的悬崖)和架构问题(变换器是否能够推广到连续状态预测,或者是否需要新的原始构件)。

Cognitive Episodes in LLM Reasoning Traces Enable Interpretable Human Item Difficulty Prediction

大型语言模型推理轨迹中的认知事件促进可解释的人类项目难度预测
Wang, Chenguang, Li, Ming, Zeng, Xinyue, Li, Zhuochun, Jiao, Hong, Zhou, Tianyi, Zhou, Dawei
Abstract
Predicting human item difficulty is central to educational assessment, where reliable estimates support fairness and effective test construction. Existing methods often depend on costly human calibration or item-level textual representations, providing limited evidence about the cognitive processes that make items difficult. We argue that difficulty should be viewed not only as a property of item text, but also as an observable consequence of the problem-solving burden an item induces. Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) offer scalable process evidence through reasoning traces, but such evidence must be structured to support interpretable modeling. To this end, we introduce Epi2Diff (Episode to Difficulty), a framework that maps LRM reasoning traces into cognitively grounded episode sequences. These episodes group trace segments into functional problem-solving states, enabling difficulty to be modeled through reasoning scale, effort allocation, and state transitions. Epi2Diff extracts compact episode-dynamic features and combines them with semantic item representations for human difficulty prediction. Experiments on four real-world human difficulty datasets show that Epi2Diff consistently outperforms strong baselines, including fine-tuned small language models, LLM in-context learning, and supervised LLM adaptation. On SAT-derived classification benchmarks, Epi2Diff achieves an 8.1% average relative gain over supervised LLM fine-tuning baselines. Further analyses show that harder items induce more effortful, iterative, and implementation-centered episode dynamics, rather than merely longer responses. These results demonstrate that cognitive episodes in LRM reasoning traces provide a predictive and interpretable process representation for human item difficulty, offering a new lens for educational measurement with reasoning models.

预测人类项目难度是教育评估的核心,可靠的估计支持公平性和有效的测试构建。现有方法通常依赖于昂贵的人为校准或项目级文本表示,提供关于使项目变得困难的认知过程的有限证据。我们认为,难度不仅应被视为项目文本的属性,还应被视为项目所引发的问题解决负担的可观察结果。大型推理模型(Large Reasoning Models, LRM)通过推理轨迹提供可扩展的过程证据,但这些证据必须结构化以支持可解释的建模。为此,我们提出了Epi2Diff(Episode to Difficulty),一个将LRM推理轨迹映射为认知基础的事件序列的框架。这些事件将轨迹片段分组为功能性的问题解决状态,使得难度可以通过推理规模、努力分配和状态转变进行建模。Epi2Diff提取紧凑的事件动态特征,并将其与语义项目表示结合,以进行人类难度预测。在四个真实世界的人类难度数据集上的实验表明,Epi2Diff始终优于强基线,包括微调的小型语言模型、LRM上下文学习和监督的LRM适应。在基于SAT的分类基准上,Epi2Diff相较于监督的LRM微调基线实现了8.1%的平均相对增益。进一步分析表明,更难的项目引发了更费力、迭代和以实现为中心的事件动态,而不仅仅是更长的响应。这些结果表明,LRM推理轨迹中的认知事件为人类项目难度提供了可预测和可解释的过程表示,为使用推理模型进行教育测量提供了新的视角。

Vision-Default, Prior-Override: Causal Mechanisms of Perception-Knowledge Conflict in Vision-Language Models

视觉-默认,先验-覆盖:视觉-语言模型中感知-知识冲突的因果机制
Lietzow, Niclas, Bitterman, Danielle, Eickhoff, Carsten, Rudman, William, Golovanevsky, Michal
Abstract
Vision-language models must reconcile visual evidence with memorized world knowledge when the two conflict. How they resolve this conflict shapes the reliability of multimodal systems, yet prior work characterizes it behaviorally without a component-level causal account. We combine activation patching across three granularities (residual stream, attention heads, and MLP sublayers) with model-component ablation studies and mechanistic analysis. Across three VLM families, we find that visual grounding emerges by default, whereas prior grounding depends on a small set of causally necessary attention heads (2.5-4.8%) concentrated in the second half of the network. These heads enable answers from stored world knowledge (e.g., "red" for a strawberry) despite conflicting visual input. Ablating them flips predictions from knowledge-grounded to visually grounded answers in 68-96% of cases under prior-knowledge prompts, but changes only 0.8-7.5% of visually grounded predictions, establishing an asymmetric causal structure. The identified heads decompose into routing heads, which modulate information flow, and writing heads, which directly project answer tokens into the residual stream. This structure is consistent across model families and scales, revealing a sparse causal circuit underlying perception-knowledge conflict in VLMs.

视觉-语言模型在视觉证据与记忆中的世界知识发生冲突时,必须调和这两者。它们如何解决这一冲突影响多模态系统的可靠性,然而以往的研究仅从行为层面进行描述,而缺乏组件级的因果解释。我们结合了在三个粒度(残差流、注意力头和多层感知器子层)上的激活修补与模型组件消融研究和机制分析。在三种视觉-语言模型(VLM)家族中,我们发现视觉基础是默认出现的,而先验基础则依赖于一小组因果必要的注意力头(占比2.5%-4.8%),这些注意力头集中在网络的后半部分。这些注意力头使得即使在视觉输入冲突的情况下,仍能从存储的世界知识中得到答案(例如,“红色”对应草莓)。消融这些注意力头会使得在先验知识提示下,68%-96%的情况下预测从知识基础转变为视觉基础,但对视觉基础预测的改变仅为0.8%-7.5%,确立了不对称的因果结构。识别出的注意力头可分解为路由头(调节信息流)和写入头(直接将答案标记投射到残差流中)。这一结构在不同模型家族和规模中保持一致,揭示了在视觉-语言模型中感知-知识冲突的稀疏因果电路。
