Real-world objects are composed of distinctive, object-specific parts. Identifying these parts is key to performing fine-grained, compositional reasoning—yet, large multimodal models (LMMs) struggle to perform this seemingly straightforward task. In this work, we introduce PARTONOMY, an LMM benchmark designed for pixel-level part grounding. We construct PARTONOMY from existing part datasets and our own rigorously annotated set of images, encompassing 862 parts and 5346 objects for evaluation. Unlike existing datasets that simply ask models to identify generic parts, PARTONOMY utilizes highly technical concepts and challenges models to compare objects’ parts, consider part-whole relationships, and justify textual predictions with visual segmentations. Our experiments demonstrate significant limitations in state-of-the-art LMMs (e.g., LISA-13B achieves only 5.9% gIoU), highlighting a critical gap in their part grounding abilities. We note that existing segmentation-enabled LMMs (segmenting LMMs) have two key architectural shortcomings: they use special [SEG] tokens not seen during pretraining which induce distribution shift, and they discard predicted segmentations instead of using past predictions to guide future ones. To address these deficiencies, we train several part-centric LMMs and propose PLUM, a novel segmenting LMM that utilizes span tagging instead of segmentation tokens and that conditions on prior predictions in a feedback loop. We find that pretrained PLUM dominates existing segmenting LMMs on reasoning segmentation, VQA, and visual hallucination benchmarks. In addition, PLUM finetuned on our proposed Explanatory Part Segmentation task is competitive with segmenting LMMs trained on significantly more segmentation data. Our work opens up new avenues towards enabling fine-grained, grounded visual understanding in LMMs.

Pre-training techniques have greatly advanced computer vision, with CroCo’s cross-view completion approach yielding impressive results in tasks like 3D reconstruction and pose regression. However, cross-view completion is ill-posed in non-covisible regions, limiting its effectiveness. We introduce Alligat0R, a novel pre-training approach that replaces cross-view learning with a covisibility segmentation task. Our method predicts whether each pixel in one image is covisible in the second image, occluded, or outside the field of view, making the pre-training effective in both covisible and non-covisible regions, and provides interpretable predictions. To support this, we present Cub3, a large-scale dataset with 5M image pairs and dense covisibility annotations derived from the nuScenes and ScanNet datasets. Cub3 includes diverse scenarios with varying degrees of overlap. The experiments show that our novel pre-training method Alligat0R significantly outperforms CroCo in relative pose regression. Alligat0R and Cub3 will be made publicly available.

Vision Transformers rely on fixed patch tokens that ignore the spatial and semantic structure of images. In this work, we introduce an end-to-end differentiable tokenizer that adapts to image content with pixel-level granularity while remaining backward-compatible with existing architectures for retrofitting pretrained models. Our method uses hierarchical model selection with information criteria to provide competitive performance in both image-level classification and dense-prediction tasks, and even supports out-of-the-box raster-to-vector conversion.

Action segmentation is a core challenge in high-level video understanding, aiming to partition untrimmed videos into segments and assign each a label from a predefined action set. Existing methods primarily address single-person activities with fixed action sequences, overlooking multi-person scenarios. In this work, we pioneer textual reference-guided human action segmentation in multi-person settings, where a textual description specifies the target person for segmentation. We introduce the first dataset for Referring Human Action Segmentation, i.e., RHAS133, built from 133 movies and annotated with 137 fine-grained actions with 33h video data, together with textual descriptions for this new task. Benchmarking existing action segmentation methods on RHAS133 using VLM-based feature extractors reveals limited performance and poor aggregation of visual cues for the target person. To address this, we propose a holistic-partial aware Fourier-conditioned diffusion framework, i.e., HopaDIFF, leveraging a novel cross-input gate attentional xLSTM to enhance holistic-partial long-range reasoning and a novel Fourier condition to introduce more fine-grained control to improve the action segmentation generation. HopaDIFF achieves state-of-the-art results on RHAS133 in diverse evaluation settings. The dataset and code are available at https://github.com/KPeng9510/HopaDIFF.

Deep Learning · Attention Mechanisms

We introduce a new interpretation of the attention matrix as a discrete-time Markov chain. Our interpretation sheds light on common operations involving attention scores such as selection, summation, and averaging in a unified framework. It further extends them by considering indirect attention, propagated through the Markov chain, as opposed to previous studies that only model immediate effects. Our key observation is that tokens linked to semantically similar regions form metastable states, i.e., regions where attention tends to concentrate, while noisy attention scores dissipate. Metastable states and their prevalence can be easily computed through simple matrix multiplication and eigenanalysis, respectively. Using these lightweight tools, we demonstrate state-of-the-art zero-shot segmentation. Lastly, we define TokenRank---the steady state vector of the Markov chain, which measures global token importance. We show that TokenRank enhances unconditional image generation, improving both quality (IS) and diversity (FID), and can also be incorporated into existing segmentation techniques to improve their performance over existing benchmarks. We believe our framework offers a fresh view of how tokens are being attended in modern visual transformers.

The scarcity of annotated medical imaging data has driven significant progress in semi-supervised learning to alleviate reliance on expensive expert labeling. While foundational vision models such as the Segment Anything Model (SAM) exhibit robust generalization in generic segmentation tasks, their direct application to medical images often results in suboptimal performance. To address this challenge, in this work, we propose a novel fully SAM-based semi-supervised medical image segmentation framework and develop the corresponding knowledge distillation-based learning strategy. Specifically, we first employ an efficient SAM variant as the backbone network of the semi‑supervised framework and update the default prompt embedding of SAM to unleash its full potential. Then, we utilize an original SAM, which is rich in prior knowledge, as the teacher to optimize our efficient student SAM backbone through hierarchical knowledge distillation and a dynamic loss weighting strategy. Extensive experiments on various medical datasets demonstrate that our method outperforms state-of-the-art semi-supervised segmentation approaches. Especially, our model requires less than 10% of the parameter size of the original SAM, enabling substantially lower deployment and storage overhead in real-world clinical settings.

We propose LangHOPS, the first Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM)-based framework for open-vocabulary object–part instance segmentation. Given an image, LangHOPS can jointly detect and segment hierarchical object and part instances from open-vocabulary candidate categories. Unlike prior approaches that rely on heuristic or learnable visual grouping, our approach grounds object–part hierarchies in language space. It integrates the MLLM into the object-part parsing pipeline to leverage rich knowledge and reasoning capabilities, and link multi-granularity concepts within the hierarchies. We evaluate LangHOPS across multiple challenging scenarios, including in-domain and cross-dataset object-part instance segmentation, and zero-shot semantic segmentation. LangHOPS achieves state-of-the-art results, surpassing previous methods by 5.5% Average Precision(AP) (in-domain) and 4.8% (cross-dataset) on the PartImageNet dataset and by 2.5% mIOU on unseen object parts in ADE20K (zero-shot). Ablation studies further validate the effectiveness of the language-grounded hierarchy and MLLM-driven part query refinement strategy. Our results establish LangHOPS as a strong foundation for advancing open-vocabulary fine-grained visual understanding applicable in multiple scenarios.

General Machine Learning · Representation Learning

Humans understand visual scenes by first capturing a global impression and then refining this understanding into distinct, object-like components. Inspired by this process, we introduce \textbf{C}oncept-\textbf{G}uided \textbf{S}elf-\textbf{S}upervised \textbf{L}earning (CG-SSL), a novel framework that brings structure and interpretability to representation learning through a curriculum of three training phases: (1) global scene encoding, (2) discovery of visual concepts via tokenised cross-attention, and (3) alignment of these concepts across views. Unlike traditional SSL methods, which simply enforce similarity between multiple augmented views of the same image, CG-SSL accounts for the fact that these views may highlight different parts of an object or scene. To address this, our method establishes explicit correspondences between views and aligns the representations of meaningful image regions. At its core, CG-SSL augments standard SSL with a lightweight decoder that learns and refines concept tokens via cross-attention with patch features. The concept tokens are trained using masked concept distillation and a feature-space reconstruction objective. A final alignment stage enforces view consistency by geometrically matching concept regions under heavy augmentation, enabling more compact, robust, and disentangled representations of scene regions. Across multiple backbone sizes, CG-SSL achieves state-of-the-art results on image segmentation benchmarks using $k$-NN and linear probes, substantially outperforming prior methods and approaching, or even surpassing, the performance of leading SSL models trained on over $100\times$ more data. Code and pretrained models will be released.

Current Vision-Language Models (VLMs) struggle with fine-grained spatial reasoning, particularly when multi-step logic and precise spatial alignment are required. In this work, we introduce SpatialReasoner-R1, a vision-language reasoning model designed to address these limitations. To construct high-quality supervision for spatial reasoning, we design a Multi-Model Monte Carlo Tree Search (M3CTS) method that generates diverse, logically consistent Long Chain-of-Thought (LongCoT) reasoning trajectories. In addition, we propose a fine-grained Direct Preference Optimization (fDPO) method that introduces segment-specific preference granularity for descriptive grounding and logical reasoning, guided by a spatial reward mechanism that evaluates candidate responses based on visual consistency, spatial grounding, and logical coherence. Experimental results demonstrate that fDPO achieves relative performance gains of 4.1% and 9.0% over standard DPO on spatial quality and spatial quantity tasks, respectively. SpatialReasoner-R1, trained with fDPO, sets a new SoTA on SpatialRGPT-Bench, outperforming the strongest baseline by 9.8% in average accuracy, while maintaining competitive performance on general vision-language tasks.

Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown remarkable capabilities across a wide range of vision-language tasks. However, due to the restricted input resolutions, MLLMs face significant challenges in precisely understanding and localizing visual details in high-resolution images---particularly when dealing with extra-small objects embedded in cluttered contexts. To address this issue, we propose FineRS, a two-stage MLLM-based reinforcement learning framework for jointly reasoning and segmenting extremely small objects within high-resolution scenes. FineRS adopts a coarse-to-fine pipeline comprising Global Semantic Exploration (GSE) and Localized Perceptual Refinement (LPR). Specifically, GSE performs instruction-guided reasoning to generate a textural response and a coarse target region, while LPR refines this region to produce an accurate bounding box and segmentation mask. To couple the two stages, we introduce a locate-informed retrospective reward, where LPR's outputs are used to optimize GSE for more robust coarse region exploration. Additionally, we present FineRS-4k, a new dataset for evaluating MLLMs on attribute-level reasoning and pixel-level segmentation on subtle, small-scale targets in complex high-resolution scenes. Experimental results on FineRS-4k and public datasets demonstrate that our method consistently outperforms state-of-the-art MLLM-based approaches on both instruction-guided segmentation and visual reasoning tasks.

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) acquire real-world knowledge and general reasoning ability through Internet-scale image-text corpora. They can augment robotic systems with scene understanding and task planning, and assist visuomotor policies that are trained on robot trajectory data. We explore the reverse paradigm — using rich, real, multi-modal robot trajectory data to enhance and evaluate VLMs. In this paper, we present Robo2VLM, a Visual Question Answering (VQA) dataset generation framework for VLMs. Given a human tele-operated robot demonstration with video and robot data, Robo2VLM derives ground-truth from non-visual and non-descriptive sensory modalities, such as end-effector pose, gripper aperture, and force sensing. Based on these modalities, it segments the robot trajectory into a sequence of manipulation phases. At each phase, Robo2VLM uses scene and interaction understanding to identify 3D properties of the robot, task goal, and the target object. The properties are used to generate representative VQA queries – images with textural multiple-choice questions – based on spatial, goal-conditioned, and interaction reasoning question templates. We use a subset of Open X-Embodiment to generate Robo2VLM-1, a large-scale in-the-wild dataset with 684,710 questions based on 463 distinct scenes and 3,396 robotic manipulation tasks from 176k real robot trajectories. Results suggest that Robo2VLM-1 can benchmark and improve VLM capabilities in spatial and interaction reasoning.

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) demonstrate significant potential for energy-efficient neuromorphic computing through an event-driven paradigm. While training methods and computational models have greatly advanced, SNNs struggle to achieve competitive performance in visual long-sequence modeling tasks. In artificial neural networks, the effective receptive field (ERF) serves as a valuable tool for analyzing feature extraction capabilities in visual long-sequence modeling. Inspired by this, we introduce the Spatio-Temporal Effective Receptive Field (ST-ERF) to analyze the ERF distributions across various Transformer-based SNNs. Based on the proposed ST-ERF, we reveal that these models suffer from establishing a robust global ST-ERF, thereby limiting their visual feature modeling capabilities. To overcome this issue, we propose two novel channel-mixer architectures: \underline{m}ulti-\underline{l}ayer-\underline{p}erceptron-based m\underline{ixer} (MLPixer) and \underline{s}plash-and-\underline{r}econstruct \underline{b}lock (SRB). These architectures enhance global spatial ERF through all timesteps in early network stages of Transformer-based SNNs, improving performance on challenging visual long-sequence modeling tasks. Extensive experiments conducted on the Meta-SDT variants and across object detection and semantic segmentation tasks further validate the effectiveness of our proposed method. Beyond these specific applications, we believe the proposed ST-ERF framework can provide valuable insights for designing and optimizing SNN architectures across a broader range of tasks.

Recent progress in speech processing has highlighted that high-quality performance across languages requires substantial training data for each individual language. While existing multilingual datasets cover many languages, they often contain insufficient data for each language, leading to models trained on these datasets to exhibit poor performance on most supported languages. Our work addresses this challenge by introducing a scalable pipeline for constructing speech datasets from parliamentary recordings. The proposed pipeline includes robust components for media retrieval and a two-stage alignment algorithm designed to handle non-verbatim transcripts and long-form audio. Applying this pipeline to recordings from 22 European parliaments, we extract over 61k hours of aligned speech segments, achieving substantial per-language coverage with 19 languages exceeding 1k hours and 22 languages exceeding 500 hours of high-quality speech data. We obtain an average 41.8\% reduction in word error rates over baselines when finetuning an existing ASR model on our dataset, demonstrating the usefulness of our approach.

Voxel-based 3D object detectors have achieved remarkable performance in point cloud perception, yet their high computational and memory demands pose significant challenges for deployment on resource-constrained edge devices. Post-training quantization (PTQ) provides a practical means to compress models and accelerate inference; however, existing PTQ methods for point cloud detection are typically limited to INT8 and lack support for lower-bit formats such as INT4, which restricts their deployment potential. In this paper, we present Point4bit, the first general 4-bit PTQ framework tailored for voxel-based 3D object detectors. To tackle challenges in low-bit quantization, we propose two key techniques: (1) Foreground-aware Piecewise Activation Quantization (FA-PAQ), which leverages foreground structural cues to improve the quantization of sparse activations; and (2) Gradient-guided Key Weight Quantization (G-KWQ), which preserves task-critical weights through gradient-based analysis to reduce quantization-induced degradation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Point4bit achieves INT4 quantization with minimal accuracy loss with less than 1.5\% accuracy drop. Moreover, we validate its generalization ability on point cloud classification and segmentation tasks, demonstrating broad applicability. Our method further advances the bit-width limitation of point cloud quantization to 4 bits, demonstrating strong potential for efficient deployment on resource-constrained edge devices.

Vision Transformers (ViTs) have emerged as the dominant architecture for visual processing tasks, demonstrating excellent scalability with increased training data and model size. However, recent work has identified the emergence of artifact tokens in ViTs that are incongruous with local semantics. These anomalous tokens degrade ViT performance in tasks that require fine-grained localization or structural coherence. An effective mitigation of this issue is the addition of register tokens to ViTs, which implicitly ''absorb'' the artifact term during training. Given the availability of existing large-scale pre-trained ViTs, in this paper we seek add register tokens to existing models without needing to re-train from scratch, which is infeasible considering their size. Specifically, we propose Post Hoc Registers (**PH-Reg**), an efficient self-distillation method that integrates registers into an existing ViT without requiring additional labeled data and full retraining. PH-Reg initializes both teacher and student networks from the same pre-trained ViT. The teacher remains frozen and unmodified, while the student is augmented with randomly initialized register tokens. By applying test-time augmentation to the teacher’s inputs, we generate denoised dense embeddings free of artifacts, which are then used to optimize only a small subset of unlocked student weights. We show that our approach can effectively reduce the number of artifact tokens, improving the segmentation and depth prediction of the student ViT under zero-shot and linear probing.

To enhance the generalization ability of graph neural networks (GNNs) in learning and simulation physical dynamics, a series of equivariant GNNs have been developed to incorporate the symmetric inductive bias. However, the existing methods do not take into account the non-stationarity nature of physical dynamics, where the joint distribution changes over time. Moreover, previous approaches for modeling non-stationary time series typically involve normalizing the data, which disrupts the symmetric assumption inherent in physical dynamics. To model the non-stationary physical dynamics while preserving the symmetric inductive bias, we introduce a Non-Stationary Equivariant Graph Neural Network (NS-EGNN) to capture the non-stationarity in physical dynamics while preserving the symmetric property of the model. Specifically, NS-EGNN employs Fourier Transform on segments of physical dynamics to extract time-varying frequency information from the trajectories. It then uses the first and second-order differences to mitigate non-stationarity, followed by pooling for future predictions. Through capturing varying frequency characteristics and alleviate the linear and quadric trend in the raw physical dynamics, NS-EGNN better models the temporal dependencies in the physical dynamics. NS-EGNN has been applied on various types of physical dynamics, including molecular, motion and protein dynamics. In various scenario, NS-EGNN consistently surpasses the performance of existing state-of-the-art algorithms, underscoring its effectiveness. The implementation of NS-EGNN is available at https://github.com/MaojiWEN/NS-EGNN.

Ensembles of generative large language models (LLMs) are a promising way to compensate for individual model limitations, integrating the strengths of different LLMs. Existing LLM ensemble methods, however, face limitations such as first-token delay and challenges in long-range semantic collaboration between models, Moreover, they typically assume equal voting weights for all models during ensemble, ignoring performance differences between models for a given task. In this work, we propose SpecEM, a training-free, plug-and-play LLM ensemble framework that dynamically adjusts each model's model contribution in real time based on task performance. Inspired by speculative decoding, SpecFuse iteratively performs drafting and verification, allowing models to collaborate semantically at the segment level for integrated output. Furthermore, we introduce an online feedback mechanism with multiplicative weight updates, where each model's voting weight is adjusted on-the-fly according to how often it "outperforms" others during verification stage, ensuring that stronger models exert greater influence on the ensemble during generation. Experimental results on five popular LLMs (ranging from 7B to 72B parameters) and six benchmark tasks, spanning instruction following, reasoning, commonsense, and general instruction response, demonstrate consistent performance improvements compared to state-of-the-art LLM ensemble methods.

We propose a novel AutoRegressive Generation-based paradigm for image Segmentation (ARGenSeg), achieving multimodal understanding and pixel-level perception within a unified framework. Prior works integrating image segmentation into multimodal large language models (MLLMs) typically employ either boundary points representation or dedicated segmentation heads. These methods rely on discrete representations or semantic prompts fed into task-specific decoders, which limits the ability of the MLLM to capture fine-grained visual details. To address these challenges, we introduce a segmentation framework for MLLM based on image generation, which naturally produces dense masks for target objects. We leverage MLLM to output visual tokens and detokenize them into images using an universal VQ-VAE, making the segmentation fully dependent on the pixel-level understanding of the MLLM. To reduce inference latency, we employ a next-scale-prediction strategy to generate required visual tokens in parallel. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method surpasses prior state-of-the-art approaches on multiple segmentation datasets with a remarkable boost in inference speed, while maintaining strong understanding capabilities.

Analysis of noninvasive microvascular blood flow can improve the diagnosis, prognosis, and management of many medical conditions, including cardiovascular, peripheral vascular, and sickle cell disease. This paper introduces SAM2Flow, an interactive optical flow estimation model to analyze long Oblique Back-illumination Microscopy (OBM) videos of *in vivo* microvascular flow. Inspired by the Segment Anything Model (SAM2), SAM2Flow enables users to specify regions of interest through user prompts for focused flow estimation. SAM2Flow also incorporates a dual memory attention mechanism, comprising both motion and context memory, to achieve efficient and stable flow estimations over extended video sequences. According to our experiments, SAM2Flow achieves SOTA accuracy in foreground optical flow estimation on both microvascular flow and public datasets, with a fast inference speed of over $20$ fps on $512\times512$ inputs. Based on the temporally robust flow estimation, SAM2Flow demonstrated superior performance in downstream physiological applications compared to existing models. The code and dataset will be published with this paper.

Generative video modeling has made significant strides, yet ensuring structural and temporal consistency over long sequences remains a challenge. Current methods predominantly rely on RGB signals, leading to accumulated errors in object structure and motion over extended durations. To address these issues, we introduce WorldWeaver, a robust framework for long video generation that jointly models RGB frames and perceptual conditions within a unified long-horizon modeling scheme. Our training framework offers three key advantages. First, by jointly predicting perceptual conditions and color information from a unified representation, it significantly enhances temporal consistency and motion dynamics. Second, by leveraging depth cues, which we observe to be more resistant to drift than RGB, we construct a memory bank that preserves clearer contextual information, improving quality in long-horizon video generation. Third, we employ segmented noise scheduling for training prediction groups, which further mitigates drift and reduces computational cost. Extensive experiments on both diffusion and rectified flow-based models demonstrate the effectiveness of WorldWeaver in reducing temporal drift and improving the fidelity of generated videos.
