Human Motion Segmentation (HMS), which aims to partition videos into non-overlapping human motions, has attracted increasing research attention recently. Existing approaches for HMS are mainly dominated by subspace clustering methods, which are grounded on the assumption that high-dimensional temporal data align with a Union-of-Subspaces (UoS) distribution. However, the frames in video capturing complex human motions with cluttered backgrounds may not align well with the UoS distribution. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for HMS, named Temporal Rate Reduction Clustering (\text TR ^2\text C ), which jointly learns structured representations and affinity to segment the sequences of frames in video. Specifically, the structured representations learned by \text TR ^2\text C enjoy temporally consistency and are aligned well with a UoS structure, which is favorable for addressing the HMS task. We conduct extensive experiments on five benchmark HMS datasets and achieve state-of-the-art performances with different feature extractors.

We introduce MIORe and VAR-MIORe, two novel multi-task datasets that address critical limitations in current motion restoration benchmarks. Designed with high-frame-rate (1000 FPS) acquisition and professional-grade optics, our datasets capture a broad spectrum of motion scenarios, which include complex ego-camera movements, dynamic multi-subject interactions, and depth-dependent blur effects. By adaptively averaging frames based on computed optical flow metrics, MIORe generates consistent motion blur, and preserves sharp inputs for video frame interpolation and optical flow estimation. VAR-MIORe further extends by spanning a variable range of motion magnitudes, from minimal to extreme, establishing the first benchmark to offer explicit control over motion amplitude. We provide high-resolution, scalable ground truths that challenge existing algorithms under both controlled and adverse conditions, paving the way for next-generation research of various image and video restoration tasks.
Open-set counting is garnering increasing attention due to its capability to enumerate objects of arbitrary category. It can be generally categorized into two methodologies: text-guided zero-shot counting methods and exemplar-guided few-shot counting methods. Previous text-guided zero-shot methods only provide limited object information through text, resulting in poor performance. Besides, though exemplar-guided few-shot approaches gain better results, they rely heavily on manually annotated visual exemplars, resulting in low efficiency and high labor intensity. Therefore, we propose CountSE, which simultaneously achieves high efficiency and high performance. CountSE is a new text-guided zero-shot object counting algorithm that generates multiple precise soft exemplars at different scales to enhance counting models driven solely by semantics. Specifically, to obtain richer object information and address the diversity in object scales, we introduce Semantic-guided Exemplar Selection, a module that generates candidate soft exemplars at various scales and selects those with high similarity scores. Then, to ensure accuracy and representativeness, Clustering-based Exemplar Filtering is introduced to refine the candidate exemplars by effectively eliminating inaccurate exemplars through clustering analysis. In the text-guided zero-shot setting, CountSE outperforms all state-of-the-art methods on the FSC-147 benchmark by at least 15%. Additionally, experiments on two other widely used datasets demonstrate that CountSE significantly outperforms all previous text-guided zero-shot counting methods and is competitive with the most advanced exemplar-guided few-shot methods. Codes will be available. Code is available at https://github.com/pppppz22/CountSE.
ETVA: Evaluation of Text-to-Video Alignment via Fine-grained Question Generation and Answering
PDF ↗Precisely evaluating semantic alignment between text prompts and generated videos remains a challenge in Text-to-Video (T2V) Generation. Existing text-to-video alignment metrics like CLIPScore only generate coarse-grained scores without fine-grained alignment details, failing to align with human preference. To address this limitation, we propose ETVA, a novel Evaluation method of Text-to-Video Alignment via fine-grained question generation and answering. First, a multi-agent system parses prompts into semantic scene graphs to generate atomic questions. Then we design a knowledge-augmented multi-stage reasoning framework for question answering, where an auxiliary LLM first retrieves relevant common-sense knowledge (e.g., physical laws), and then video LLM answers the generated questions through a multi-stage reasoning mechanism. Extensive experiments demonstrate that ETVA achieves a Spearman's correlation coefficient of 58.47, showing a much higher correlation with human judgment than existing metrics, which attain only 31.0. We also construct a comprehensive benchmark specifically designed for text-to-video alignment evaluation, featuring 2k diverse prompts and 12k atomic questions spanning 10 categories. Through a systematic evaluation of 15 existing text-to-video models, we identify their key capabilities and limitations, paving the way for next-generation T2V generation. All codes and datasets will be publicly available soon.
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have made significant strides in visual and language tasks. However, despite their impressive performance on standard datasets, these models encounter considerable robustness challenges when processing corrupted images, raising concerns about their reliability in safety-critical applications. To address this issue, we introduce the MLLM-IC benchmark, specifically designed to assess the performance of MLLMs under image corruption scenarios. MLLM-IC offers a more comprehensive evaluation of corruption robustness compared to existing benchmarks, enabling a multi-dimensional assessment of various MLLM capabilities across a broad range of corruption types. It includes 40 distinct corruption types and 34 low-level multimodal capabilities, each organized into a three-level hierarchical structure. Notably, it is the first corruption robustness benchmark designed to facilitate the evaluation of fine-grained MLLM capabilities. We further evaluate several prominent MLLMs and derive valuable insights into their characteristics. We believe the MLLM-IC benchmark will provide crucial insights into the robustness of MLLMs in handling corrupted images and contribute to the development of more resilient MLLMs.
Human motion generation involves synthesizing coherent human motion sequences conditioned on diverse multimodal inputs and holds significant potential for real-world applications. Despite recent advancements, existing vision-language-motion models (VLMMs) remain limited in achieving this goal. In this paper, we identify the lack of controllability as a critical bottleneck, where VLMMs struggle with diverse human commands, pose initialization, generation of long-term or unseen cases, and fine-grained control over individual body parts. To address these challenges, we introduce MotionCtrl, the first real-time, controllable VLMM with state-of-the-art performance. MotionCtrl achieves its controllability through training on HuMo100M, the largest human motion dataset to date, featuring over 5 million self-collected motions, 100 million multi-task instructional instances, and detailed part-level descriptions that address a long-standing gap in the field. Additionally, we propose a novel part-aware residual quantization technique for motion tokenization, enabling precise control over individual body parts during motion generation. Extensive experiments demonstrate MotionCtrl's superior performance across a wide range of motion benchmarks. Furthermore, we provide strategic design insights and a detailed time efficiency analysis to guide the development of practical motion generators.
Temporal Action Detection (TAD) is essential for analyzing long-form videos by identifying and segmenting actions within untrimmed sequences. While recent innovations like Temporal Informative Adapters (TIA) have improved resolution, memory constraints still limit large video processing. To address this, we introduce AdaTAD++, an enhanced framework that decouples temporal and spatial processing within adapters, organizing them into independently trainable modules. Our novel two-step training strategy first optimizes for high temporal and low spatial resolution, then vice versa, allowing the model to utilize both high spatial and temporal resolutions during inference, while maintaining training efficiency. Additionally, we incorporate a more sophisticated temporal module capable of capturing long-range dependencies more effectively than previous methods. Experiments on benchmark datasets, including ActivityNet-1.3, THUMOS14, and EPIC-Kitchens 100, demonstrate that AdaTAD++ achieves state-of-the-art performance. We also explore various adapter configurations, discussing their trade-offs regarding resource constraints and performance, providing valuable insights into their optimal application.
V2XPnP: Vehicle-to-Everything Spatio-Temporal Fusion for Multi-Agent Perception and Prediction
PDF ↗Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technologies offer a promising paradigm to mitigate the limitations of constrained observability in single-vehicle systems. Prior work primarily focuses on single-frame cooperative perception, which fuses agents' information across different spatial locations but ignores temporal cues and temporal tasks (e.g., temporal perception and prediction). In this paper, we focus on the spatio-temporal fusion in V2X scenarios and design one-step and multi-step communication strategies (when to transmit) as well as examine their integration with three fusion strategies - early, late, and intermediate (what to transmit), providing comprehensive benchmarks with 11 fusion models (how to fuse). Furthermore, we propose V2XPnP, a novel intermediate fusion framework within one-step communication for end-to-end perception and prediction. Our framework employs a unified Transformer-based architecture to effectively model complex spatio-temporal relationships across multiple agents, frames, and high-definition maps. Moreover, we introduce the V2XPnP Sequential Dataset that supports all V2X collaboration modes and addresses the limitations of existing real-world datasets, which are restricted to single-frame or single-mode cooperation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our framework outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both perception and prediction tasks.
RobAVA: A Large-scale Dataset and Baseline Towards Video based Robotic Arm Action Understanding
PDF ↗Understanding the behaviors of robotic arms is essential for various robotic applications such as logistics management, precision agriculture, and automated manufacturing. However, the lack of large-scale and diverse datasets significantly hinders progress in video-based robotic arm action understanding, highlighting the need for collecting a new large-scale dataset. In particular, our RobAVA contains 40k video sequences with video-level fine-grained annotations, covering basic actions such as picking, pushing, and placing, as well as their combinations in different orders and interactions with various objects. Distinguished to existing action recognition benchmarks, RobAVA includes instances of both normal and anomalous executions for each action category. Our further analysis reveals that the primary challenge in robotic arm action recognition lies in the fact that a complete action consists of a sequence of fundamental, atomic behaviors, requiring models to learn the inter-relationships among them. To this end, we propose a novel baseline approach, AGPT-Net, which re-defines the problem of understanding robotic arm actions as a task of aligning video sequences with atomic attributes.To enhance AGPT-Net's ability to distinguish normal and anomalous action instances, we introduce a joint semantic space constraint between category and attribute semantics, thereby amplifying the separation between normal and anomalous attribute representations for each action. We conduct extensive experiments to demonstrate AGPT-Net's superiority over other mainstream recognition models.
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have revolutionized cross-modal understanding but continue to struggle with hallucinations - fabricated content contradicting visual inputs. Existing hallucination mitigation methods either incur prohibitive computational costs or introduce distribution mismatches between training data and model outputs. We identify a critical insight: hallucinations predominantly emerge at the early stages of text generation and propagate through subsequent outputs. To address this, we propose SENTINEL (Sentence-level Early iNtervention Through IN-domain prEference Learning), a framework that eliminates dependency on human annotations. Specifically, we first bootstrap high-quality in-domain preference pairs by iteratively sampling model outputs, validating object existence through cross-checking with two open-vocabulary detectors, and classifying sentences into hallucinated/non-hallucinated categories. Subsequently, we use context-coherent positive samples and hallucinated negative samples to iteratively build context-aware preference data. Finally, we train models using a context-aware preference loss (C-DPO) that emphasizes discriminative learning at the sentence level where hallucinations initially manifest. Experimental results show that SENTINEL can reduce hallucinations by 90% over the original model and outperforms the previous state-of-the-art method on both the hallucination benchmarks and general capabilities benchmarks, manifesting its superiority and generalization ability. The models, datasets, and code are available at https://github.com/pspdada/SENTINEL.
Continual Test Time Adaptation (CTTA) has emerged as a critical approach to bridge the domain gap between controlled training environments and real-world scenarios.Since it is important to balance the trade-off between adaptation and stabilization, many studies have tried to accomplish it by either introducing a regulation to fully trainable models or updating a limited portion of the models.This paper proposes Hybrid-TTA, a holistic approach that dynamically selects the instance-wise tuning method for optimal adaptation. Our approach introduces Dynamic Domain Shift Detection (DDSD), which identifies domain shifts by leveraging temporal correlations in input sequences, and dynamically switches between Full or Efficient Tuning for effective adaptation toward varying domain shifts. To maintain model stability, Masked Image Modeling Adaptation (MIMA) leverages auxiliary reconstruction task for enhanced generalization and robustness with minimal computational overhead.Hybrid-TTA achieves 0.6%p gain on the Cityscapes-to-ACDC benchmark dataset for semantic segmentation, surpassing previous state-of-the-art methods. It also delivers about 20-fold increase in FPS compared to the recently proposed fastest methods, offering a robust solution for real-world continual adaptation challenges.
Intra-modal and Cross-modal Synchronization for Audio-visual Deepfake Detection and Temporal Localization
PDF ↗Recent deepfake detection algorithms focus solely on uni-modal or cross-modal inconsistencies. While the former disregards audio-visual correspondence entirely rendering them less effective against multimodal attacks, the latter overlooks inconsistencies in a particular modality. Moreover, many models are single-stage supervised frameworks, effective on specific training data but less generalizable to new manipulations. To address these gaps, we propose a two-stage multimodal framework that first learns intra-modal and cross-modal temporal synchronization on real videos, capturing audio-visual correspondences crucial for deepfake detection and localization. We introduce a Gaussian-targeted loss in our pretraining model to focus on learning relative synchronization patterns across multimodal pairs. Using pretrained features, our approach not only enables classification on fully manipulated videos but also supports a localization module for partial deepfakes with only specific segments spoofed. Moreover, the pretraining stage does not require fine-tuning, thus reducing complexity. Our model, tested on various benchmark datasets, demonstrates strong generalization and precise temporal localization.
High-Resolution Spatiotemporal Modeling with Global-Local State Space Models for Video-Based Human Pose Estimation
PDF ↗Modeling high-resolution spatiotemporal representations, including both global dynamic contexts (e.g., holistic human motion tendencies) and local motion details (e.g., high-frequency changes of keypoints), is essential for video-based human pose estimation (VHPE). Current state-of-the-art methods typically unify spatiotemporal learning within a single type of modeling structure (convolution or attention-based blocks), which inherently have difficulties in balancing global and local dynamic modeling and may bias the network to one of them, leading to suboptimal performance. Moreover, existing VHPE models suffer from quadratic complexity when capturing global dependencies, limiting their applicability especially for high-resolution sequences. Recently, the state space models (known as Mamba) have demonstrated significant potential in modeling long-range contexts with linear complexity; however, they are restricted to 1D sequential data. In this paper, we present a novel framework that extends Mamba from two aspects to separately learn global and local high-resolution spatiotemporal representations for VHPE. Specifically, we first propose a Global Spatiotemporal Mamba, which performs 6D selective space-time scan and spatial- and temporal-modulated scan merging to efficiently extract global representations from high-resolution sequences. We further introduce a windowed space-time scan-based Local Refinement Mamba to enhance the high-frequency details of localized keypoint motions. Extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art VHPE approaches while achieving better computational trade-offs.
Integrating Task-Specific and Universal Adapters for Pre-Trained Model-based Class-Incremental Learning
PDF ↗Class-Incremental Learning (CIL) requires a learning system to continually learn new classes without forgetting. Existing pre-trained model-based CIL methods often freeze the pre-trained network and adapt to incremental tasks using additional lightweight modules such as adapters. However, incorrect module selection during inference hurts performance, and task-specific modules often overlook shared general knowledge, leading to errors on distinguishing between similar classes across tasks. To address the aforementioned challenges, we propose integrating Task-Specific and Universal Adapters (TUNA) in this paper. Specifically, we train task-specific adapters to capture the most crucial features relevant to their respective tasks and introduce an entropy-based selection mechanism to choose the most suitable adapter. Furthermore, we leverage an adapter fusion strategy to construct a universal adapter, which encodes the most discriminative features shared across tasks. We combine task-specific and universal adapter predictions to harness both specialized and general knowledge during inference. Extensive experiments on various benchmark datasets demonstrate the state-of-the-art performance of our approach. Code is available at https://github.com/LAMDA-CL/ICCV2025-TUNA
Simultaneous relighting and novel-view rendering of digital human representations is an important yet challenging task with numerous applications. However, progress in this area has been significantly limited due to the lack of publicly available, high-quality datasets, especially for full-body human captures. To address this critical gap, we introduce the HumanOLAT dataset, the first publicly accessible large-scale dataset providing multi-view One-Light-at-a-Time (OLAT) captures of full-body humans. The dataset includes HDR RGB frames under various illumination conditions, such as white light, environment maps, color gradients and fine-grained OLAT illuminations. Our evaluations on state-of-the-art relighting and novel-view synthesis methods underscore both the dataset's value and the significant challenges still present in accurately modeling complex human-centric appearance and lighting interactions. We believe that HumanOLAT will significantly facilitate future research, enabling rigorous benchmarking and advancements in both general and human-specific relighting and rendering techniques.
Typical template-based object pose pipelines estimate the pose by retrieving the closest matching template and aligning it with the observed image. However, failure to retrieve the correct template often leads to inaccurate pose predictions. To address this, we reformulate template-based object pose estimation as a ray alignment problem, where the viewing directions from multiple posed template images are learned to align with a non-posed query image. Inspired by recent progress in diffusion-based camera pose estimation, we embed this formulation into a diffusion transformer architecture that aligns a query image with a set of posed templates. We reparameterize object rotation using object-centered camera rays and model object translation by extending scale-invariant translation estimation to dense translation offsets. Our model leverages geometric priors from the templates to guide accurate query pose inference. A coarse-to-fine training strategy based on narrowed template sampling improves performance without modifying the network architecture. Extensive experiments across multiple benchmark datasets show competitive results of our method compared to state-of-the-art approaches in unseen object pose estimation.
We present a method for Sparse view reconstruction with surface element splatting that runs within 2 minutes on a consumer grade GPU. While few methods address sparse radiance field learning from noisy or unposed sparse cameras, shape recovery remains relatively underexplored in this setting. Several radiance and shape learning test-time optimization methods address the sparse posed setting by learning data priors or using combinations of external monocular geometry priors. Differently, we propose an efficient and simple pipeline harnessing a single recent 3D foundation model. We leverage its various task heads, notably point maps and camera initializations to instantiate a bundle adjusting 2D Gaussian Splatting (2DGS) model, and image correspondences to guide camera optimization midst 2DGS training. Key to our contribution is a novel formulation of splatted color variance along rays, which can be computed efficiently. Reducing this moment in training leads to more accurate shape reconstructions. We demonstrate stat-of-the-art performances in the sparse uncalibrated setting in reconstruction and novel view Benchmarks based on established multi-view datasets.
VOccl3D: A Video Benchmark Dataset for 3D Human Pose and Shape Estimation under real Occlusions
PDF ↗Human pose and shape (HPS) estimation methods have been extensively studied, with many demonstrating high zero-shot performance on in-the-wild images and videos. However, these methods often struggle in challenging scenarios involving complex human poses or significant occlusions. Although some studies address 3D human pose estimation under occlusion, they typically evaluate performance on datasets that lack realistic or substantial occlusions, e.g., most existing datasets introduce occlusions with random patches over the human or clipart-style overlays, which may not reflect real-world challenges. To bridge this gap in realistic occlusion datasets, we introduce a novel benchmark dataset, VOccl3D, a Video-based human Occlusion dataset with 3D body pose and shape annotations. Inspired by works such as AGORA and BEDLAM, we constructed this dataset using advanced computer graphics rendering techniques, incorporating diverse real-world occlusion scenarios, clothing textures, and human motions. Additionally, we fine-tuned recent HPS methods, CLIFF and BEDLAM-CLIFF, on our dataset, demonstrating significant qualitative and quantitative improvements across multiple public datasets, as well as on the test split of our dataset, while comparing its performance with other state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, we leveraged our dataset to enhance human detection performance under occlusion by fine-tuning an existing object detector, YOLO11, thus leading to a robust end-to-end HPS estimation system under occlusions. Overall, this dataset serves as a valuable resource for future research aimed at benchmarking methods designed to handle occlusions, offering a more realistic alternative to existing occlusion datasets.
Vision-and-language navigation (VLN) aims to develop agents capable of navigating in realistic environments. While recent cross-modal training approaches have significantly improved navigation performance in both indoor and outdoor scenarios, aerial navigation over real-world cities remains underexplored primarily due to limited datasets and the difficulty of integrating visual and geographic information. To fill this gap, we introduce CityNav, the first large-scale real-world dataset for aerial VLN. Our dataset consists of 32,637 human demonstration trajectories, each paired with a natural language description, covering 4.65 km2 across two real cities: Cambridge and Birmingham. In contrast to existing datasets composed of synthetic scenes such as AerialVLN, our dataset presents a unique challenge because agents must interpret spatial relationships between real-world landmarks and the navigation destination, making CityNav an essential benchmark for advancing aerial VLN. Furthermore, as an initial step toward addressing this challenge, we provide a methodology of creating geographic semantic maps that can be used as an auxiliary modality input during navigation. In our experiments, we compare performance of three representative aerial VLN agents (Seq2seq, CMA and AerialVLN models) and demonstrate that the semantic map representation significantly improves their navigation performance.
High-resolution image (HRI) understanding aims to process images with a large number of pixels, such as pathological images and agricultural aerial images, both of which can exceed 1 million pixels. Vision Large Language Models (VLMs) can allegedly handle HRIs, however, there is a lack of a comprehensive benchmark for VLMs to evaluate HRI understanding. To address this gap, we introduce HRScene, a novel unified benchmark for HRI understanding with rich scenes. HRScene incorporates 25 real-world datasets and 2 synthetic diagnostic datasets with resolutions ranging from 1,024 times 1,024 to 35,503 times 26,627. HRScene is collected and re-annotated by 10 graduate-level annotators, covering 25 scenarios, ranging from microscopic to radiology images, street views, long-range pictures, and telescope images. It includes HRIs of real-world objects, scanned documents, and composite multi-image. The two diagnostic evaluation datasets are synthesized by combining the target image with the gold answer and distracting images in different orders, assessing how well models utilize regions in HRI. We conduct extensive experiments involving 28 VLMs, including Gemini 2.0 Flash and GPT-4o. Experiments on HRScene show that current VLMs achieve an average accuracy of around 50% on real-world tasks, revealing significant gaps in HRI understanding. Results on synthetic datasets reveal that VLMs struggle to effectively utilize HRI regions, showing significant Regional Divergence and lost-in-middle, shedding light on future research.
