Prior dual-stream methods with the feature interaction mechanism have achieved remarkable performance in single image reflection removal (SIRR). However, they often struggle with (1) semantic understanding gap between the features of pre-trained models and those of reflection removal models, and (2) reflection label inconsistencies between synthetic and real-world training data. In this work, we first adopt the parameter efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) strategy by integrating several learnable Mona layers into the pre-trained model to align the training directions. Then, a label generator is designed to unify the reflection labels for both synthetic and real-world data. In addition, a Gaussian-based Adaptive Frequency Learning Block (G-AFLB) is proposed to adaptively learn and fuse the frequency priors, and a Dynamic Agent Attention (DAA) is employed as an alternative to window-based attention by dynamically modeling the significance levels across windows (inter-) and within an individual window (intra-). These components constitute our proposed Gap-Free Reflection Removal Network (GFRRN). Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our GFRRN, achieving superior performance against state-of-the-art SIRR methods.

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have made significant advancements in vision understanding and reasoning. However, the autoregressive Transformer architecture used by MLLMs requires tokenization on input images, which limits their ability to accurately ground objects within the 2D image space. This raises an important question: how can sequential language tokens be improved to better ground objects in 2D spatial space for MLLMs? To address this, we present a spatial representation method for grounding objects, namely GETok, that integrates a specialized vocabulary of learnable tokens into MLLMs. GETok first uses grid tokens to partition the image plane into structured spatial anchors, and then exploits offset tokens to enable precise and iterative refinement of localization predictions. By embedding spatial relationships directly into tokens, GETok significantly advances MLLMs in native 2D space reasoning without modifying the autoregressive architecture. Extensive experiments demonstrate that GETok achieves superior performance over the state-of-the-art methods across various referring tasks in both supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning settings.
CrossVL: Complexity-Aware Feature Routing and Paired Curriculum for Cross-View Vision-Language Detection
PDF ↗Vision-language models (VLMs) enable text-guided object detection but degrade severely under cross-view scenarios where ground and aerial viewpoints differ in altitude, scale, and spatial layout. These geometric changes introduce systematic complexity variations between viewpoints, e.g., ground view images contain dense and highly occluded structures, while aerial images are sparse and globally organized. Fixed VLM fusion mechanisms cannot handle this discrepancy. We propose CrossVL, a framework combining Complexity-Aware Pathway Aggregation (CPA) and Paired Curriculum Learning (PCL) for enhanced cross-view detection for VLM. CPA estimates scene complexity from multimodal statistics and routes visual features through multiple pathways to obtain view-specific representations. PCL leverages semantic consistency of synchronized ground-aerial pairs to provide stable early supervision and then gradually shifts toward randomized sampling. On MAVREC, CrossVL improves Florence-2's aerial mAP from 58.66% to 61.03% and reduces the ground-aerial performance gap from 8.63pp to 6.65pp, while also achieving a 3.3x reduction in variance across random seeds. CPA provides stable complexity-aware feature aggregation, and PCL enhances optimization dynamics. Together, they demonstrate that coordinated architectural and training adaptations are crucial for robust cross-view VLM detection.
Voxel-wise dose prediction is a critical yet challenging task in radiotherapy (RT) planning, as bespoke models trained from scratch often struggle to generalize across institutions, scanners, and planning protocols. Meanwhile, large generative backbones pretrained on billion-scale visual data have learned strong geometric and structural priors that may transfer beyond their source domain. We propose DiffKT3D, an Any2Any 3D diffusion framework that transfers prior knowledge from pretrained video diffusion models to clinically meaningful dose prediction. To support flexible conditioning over heterogeneous clinical inputs, including CT, target and organ masks, body mask, and beam descriptors, we introduce a modality- and role-aware Any2Any formulation that avoids cross-attention while retaining a unified conditioning interface. We further apply reinforcement-learning (RL) post-training with a clinically informed Scorecard reward to align generations with institutional treatment preferences. On the GDP--HMM challenge, DiffKT3D reduces voxel-wise MAE from 2.07 to 1.93 relative to the top challenge solution, while also improving image quality and clinical preference alignment. These results show that pretrained diffusion priors, combined with flexible multimodal conditioning and scorecard-aligned post-training, provide an effective approach to RT dose prediction.
Transparent objects are common in daily life, and understanding their multi-layer depth information, including both the transparent surface and the objects behind it, is crucial for real-world applications that interact with transparent materials.However, existing depth methods produce only a single depth map, which is inherently ambiguous for transparent surfaces.In this work, We propose a multi-layer depth estimation method, SeeGroup, consisting of novel recurrent decomposition module design and an intensity-based formulation for multi-layer depth. Experiments demonstrate that our method significantly improves the state of the art of multi-layer depth estimation, improving quadruplet relative depth accuracy on LayeredDepth benchmark from 61.34% to 70.09%.
PIX-TAB: Efficient PIXel-Precise TABle Structure Recognition Approach with Speculative Decoding and Region-Based Image Segmentation
PDF ↗Table structure recognition in document AI faces significant challenges due to layout inconsistencies, merged cells, and complex nested structures, which is further exacerbated by the scarcity of large, diverse annotated datasets. In this paper, we present PIX-TAB (Efficient PIXel-Precise TABle Structure Recognition Approach) that provides exact, pixel-level structure using a small, lightweight model that can run on-device. The approach is language-agnostic, as it allows adding support for a new languages simply by replacing the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) model without modifying to the core structure recognition model. Key innovations include: position-aware pixel-precise tokens for deterministic cell reconstruction; speculative decoding for faster sequence generation, and training-only box supervision to stabilize spatial grounding; region-based image segmentation. To mitigate data scarcity we propose a pipeline for generating a large synthetic table dataset. Experimental results validate each component. To address the limitations of existing evaluation methods we introduce TEDS_ struct100 and TEDS_ 100 metrics. Speculative decoding approach significantly improves recognition speed while maintaining accuracy. Finally, the combined techniques enable a mobile-optimized model that is more than three times faster than the full-size version.
The creation of high-fidelity, customizable 3D indoor scene textures remains a significant challenge. While text-driven methods offer flexibility, they lack the precision for fine-grained, instance-level control, and often produce textures with insufficient quality, artifacts, and baked-in shading. To overcome these limitations, we introduce CustomTex, a novel framework for instance-level, high-fidelity scene texturing driven by reference images. CustomTex takes an untextured 3D scene and a set of reference images specifying the desired appearance for each object instance, and generates a unified, high-resolution texture map. The core of our method is a dual-distillation approach that separates semantic control from pixel-level enhancement. We employ semantic-level distillation, equipped with an instances cross attention, to ensure semantic plausibility and "reference-instance" alignment, and pixel-level distillation to enforce high visual fidelity. Both are unified within a Variational Score Distillation optimization framework. Experiments demonstrate that CustomTex achieves precise instance-level consistency with reference images and produces textures with superior sharpness, reduced artifacts, and minimal baked-in shading compared to state-of-the-art methods. Our work establishes a more direct and user-friendly path to high-quality, customizable 3D scene appearance editing.
Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) has shown promise in aligning image and video generative models with human preferences. However, applying it to modern flow matching models is challenging because of its deterministic sampling paradigm. Current methods address this issue by converting Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) to Stochastic Differential Equations (SDEs), which introduce stochasticity. However, this SDE-based GRPO suffers from issues of inefficient credit assignment and incompatibility with high-order solvers for fewer-step sampling. In this paper, we first reinterpret existing SDE-based GRPO methods from a distance optimization perspective, revealing their underlying mechanism as a form of contrastive learning. Based on this insight, we propose Neighbor GRPO, a novel alignment algorithm that completely bypasses the need for SDEs. Neighbor GRPO generates a diverse set of candidate trajectories by perturbing the initial noise conditions of the ODE and optimizes the model using a softmax distance-based surrogate leaping policy. We establish a theoretical connection between this distance-based objective and policy gradient optimization, rigorously integrating our approach into the GRPO framework. Our method fully preserves the advantages of deterministic ODE sampling, including efficiency and compatibility with high-order solvers. We further introduce symmetric anchor sampling for computational efficiency and group-wise quasi-norm reweighting to address reward flattening. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Neighbor GRPO significantly outperforms SDE-based counterparts in terms of training cost, convergence speed, and generation quality.
Mask to Align, Weight to Disambiguate: Reliable Unsupervised Cross-Modal Hashing with Masked-Weight Contrast
PDF ↗In unsupervised cross-modal hashing, real world multimodal data often exhibit partial alignment and semantic ambiguity. Dominant modalities can easily bias the fusion process, while semantically related samples may be mistakenly treated as negatives in contrastive learning, leading to unstable optimization. To address these issues, we propose Unsupervised Weighted Masked Contrastive Hashing (UWMCH). UWMCH introduces masking before multimodal fusion to construct partially observed interactions, encouraging the model to learn complementary semantics and reducing over-reliance on dominant modality cues. We further develop a semantic affinity guided weighted contrastive objective to reduce the influence of false negatives by combining instance level consistency with a cluster consensus prior. In addition, the global and local semantic geometries of the fused space are stabilized via Cluster-Centroid Agreement (CCA) and Semantic Structure Regularization (SSR). Extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.
Recent advances in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have led to significant progress in video understanding. Due to limited context windows and computational overhead, most MLLMs adopt uniform frame sampling. This approach is at high risk of missing critical visual information and constrains performance especially for long videos. To address this problem, we propose a lightweight frame selection method to identify keyframes and train it via a two-stage strategy. In the pre-training stage, the frame selector learns to model relevance between individual video frames and queries. In the reinforcement learning (RL) stage, we employ a hierarchical reward that evaluates selection quality at combination and frame levels. Through stochastic exploration of frame combinations, the selector learns to identify and retain frames that improve task performance rather than merely maximizing query relevance, which can be misleading. The selected frames serve as input to downstream MLLMs for video understanding and reasoning. Experimental results demonstrate the proposed selector improves performance of diverse downstream MLLMs across benchmarks spanning medium to long videos.
Joint Learning of General and Diverse Patterns with Mixture of Memory Experts for Weakly-Supervised Video Anomaly Detection
PDF ↗Weakly-supervised Video Anomaly Detection (wVAD) aims to detect abnormal events using only binary labels, making it challenging to capture both the diversity of anomalies and their shared semantic cues. Existing methods either focus on a generic anomaly pattern, achieving strong generalization but weak discrimination, or rely on class-level diversity modeling, which ignores shared semantics and suffers from limited generalization. To overcome these limitations, we propose the Mixture of Memory Experts (MoME), a unified framework that jointly learns general and diverse patterns. Each expert in MoME possesses an internal memory for fine-grained specialization and shares an external memory for general knowledge aggregation. To enhance semantic diversity and improve generalization beyond coarse class-level supervision, we introduce an Anomaly Prototype Router that leverages large language models to construct generalized anomaly prototypes for semantically guided expert routing. Moreover, balanced routing, expert diversity, and enhanced pattern discriminability are ensured by the regularization loss for APR, the distinctiveness loss for experts, and reconstruction together with memory tasks, respectively. Extensive experiments on UCF-Crime and XD-Violence demonstrate that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance, validating the effectiveness of jointly modeling generality and diversity for robust anomaly detection.
EvObj: Learning Evolving Object-centric Representations for 3D Instance Segmentation without Scene Supervision
PDF ↗We introduce EvObj for unsupervised 3D instance segmentation that bridges the geometric domain gap between synthetic pretraining data and real-world point clouds. Current methods suffer from structural discrepancies when transferring object priors from synthetic datasets (e.g., ShapeNet) to real scans (e.g., ScanNet), particularly due to morphological variations and occlusion artifacts. To address this, EvObj integrates two innovative modules: (1) An object discerning module that dynamically refines object candidates, enabling continuous adaptation of object priors to target domains; and (2) An object completion module that reconstructs partial geometries after discovering objects. We conduct extensive experiments on both real-world and synthetic datasets, demonstrating superior 3D object segmentation performance over all baselines while achieving state-of-the-art results.
Digital images are often degraded by soft effects such as lens flare, haze, shadows, and reflections, which reduce aesthetics even though the underlying pixels remain partially visible. The prevailing works address these degradations in isolation, developing highly specialized, specialist models that lack scalability and fail to exploit the shared underlying essences of these restoration problems. While specialist models are limited, recent large-scale pretrained generalist models offer powerful, text-driven image editing capabilities. while recent general-purpose systems (e.g., GPT-4o, Flux Kontext, Nano Banana) require detailed prompts and often fail to achieve robust removal on these fine-grained tasks or preserve identity of the scene. Leveraging the common essence of soft effects, i.e., semi-transparent occlusions, we introduce a foundational versatile model UniSER, capable of addressing diverse degradations caused by soft effects within a single framework. Our methodology centers on curating a massive 3.8M-pair dataset to ensure robustness and generalization, which includes novel, physically-plausible data to fill critical gaps in public benchmarks, and a tailored training pipeline that fine-tunes a Diffusion Transformer to learn robust restoration priors from this diverse data, integrating fine-grained mask and strength controls. This synergistic approach allows UniSER to significantly outperform both specialist and generalist models, achieving robust, high-fidelity restoration in the wild.
Diffusion-based video motion customization facilitates the acquisition of human motion representations from a few video samples, while achieving arbitrary subjects transfer through precise textual conditioning. Existing approaches often rely on semantic-level alignment, expecting the model to learn new motion concepts and combine them with other entities (e.g., cats or dogs) to produce visually appealing results. However, video data involve complex spatio-temporal patterns, and focusing solely on semantics cause the model to overlook the visual complexity of motion. Conversely, tuning only the visual representation leads to semantic confusion in representing the intended action. To address these limitations, we propose SynMotion, a new motion-customized video generation model that jointly leverages semantic guidance and visual adaptation. At the semantic level, we introduce the dual-embedding semantic comprehension mechanism which disentangles subject and motion representations, allowing the model to learn customized motion features while preserving its generative capabilities for diverse subjects. At the visual level, we integrate parameter-efficient motion adapters into a pre-trained video generation model to enhance motion fidelity and temporal coherence. Furthermore, we introduce a new embedding-specific training strategy which alternately optimizes subject and motion embeddings, supported by the manually constructed Subject Prior Video (SPV) training dataset. This strategy promotes motion specificity while preserving generalization across diverse subjects. Lastly, we introduce MotionBench, a newly curated benchmark with diverse motion patterns. Experimental results across both T2V and I2V settings demonstrate that SynMotion outperforms existing baselines.
Multimodal sentiment analysis (MSA) seeks to infer human emotions by integrating heterogeneous signals from text, audio, and visual modalities.Although recent approaches attempt to leverage cross-modal complementarity, they often struggle to fully utilize weaker modalities.In practice, the expressive power across modalities is inherently imbalanced: dominant modalities tend to overshadow non-verbal ones, which not only limits their contribution but also induces modality competition during training.This imbalance leads to degraded fusion performance and poor robustness under noisy or missing modalities.To address these challenges, we propose a novel model, Enhance-then-Balance Modality Collaboration framework (EBMC). EBMC first improves representational quality via modality semantic disentanglement (MSD) and cross-modal complementary enhancement (CCE), which strengthens weaker modalities using information from other modalities.To prevent dominant modalities from overwhelming others during joint optimization, EBMC introduces an Energy-guided Modality Coordination (EMC) mechanism that models modality contributions via energy potentials and achieves implicit gradient rebalancing through a differentiable equilibrium objective.Further, an Instance-aware Modality Trust Distillation (IMTD) module estimates sample-level modality reliability and adaptively modulates fusion weights, ensuring robustness against noise and modality incompleteness.Extensive experiments on multiple MSA benchmarks demonstrate that EBMC achieves state-of-the-art or competitive results.Moreover, EBMC maintains strong performance under missing-modality settings, highlighting its effectiveness and robustness.
PointCSP: Cross-Sample Semantic Propagation and Stability Preservation in Self-Supervised Point Cloud Learning
PDF ↗Scene-level point cloud self-supervised learning (PC-SSL) has demonstrated potential in enhancing the generalization capability of 3D vision models. Despite the advances in the field through existing methods, the sample-independent modeling paradigm still poses significant limitations in terms of maintaining consistent semantic representations across scenes. This challenge hinders the construction of a unified and transferable semantic space. To address this issue, we propose a PC-SSL framework based on cross-sample semantic propagation (CSP), in which samples within a batch are serialized into continuous input and processed by a state-space model to enable semantic state propagation. This mechanism explicitly models the dynamic dependencies across samples in the state space, allowing the network to establish cross-sample semantic consistency in the latent space and achieve global semantic alignment. Since serialization-based pretraining requires batch-level input organization, we further introduce an asymmetric semantic preservation distillation (SPD) during finetuning to achieve structural alignment of semantic transfer and eliminate inconsistencies caused by batch dependency. The proposed SPD ensures stable transfer of pretrained semantics through a heterogeneous input mechanism and a semantic feature alignment constraint. This enables the model to maintain structured semantic consistency and robustness under single-scene testing conditions. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmark datasets demonstrate that our method consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both performance and semantic consistency.
Existing evaluations of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) on spatial intelligence are typically fragmented and limited in scope. In this work, we conduct a holistic assessment of the spatial understanding abilities of modern MLLMs and propose complementary data-driven and agent-based solutions. Concretely, we make the following contributions: (i) we propose SpatialScore, the most comprehensive and diverse multimodal spatial intelligence benchmark to date, encompassing various visual data types, input modalities, and question-answering formats with approximately 5K manually verified samples across 30 distinct tasks; (ii) we construct SpatialCorpus, a large-scale training resource with 331K multimodal QA samples for supervised fine-tuning Qwen3-VL on spatial understanding; (iii) we develop SpaitalAgent, a multi-agent system incorporating 12 specialized spatial perception tools, supporting both Plan-Execute and ReAct reasoning paradigms, enabling to improve spatial reasoning in a training-free manner; and (iv) we conduct extensive evaluations on 40 representative MLLMs, revealing persistent challenges in spatial intelligence while demonstrating the effectiveness of our data-driven and agent-based solutions. All data, code, and models will be publicly available.
Registration of multiview point clouds typically depends on extensive pairwise matching to build a pose graph for global synchronization, which is computationally expensive and ill-posed without holistic geometric constraints. In this paper, we propose FUSER, the first feed-forward multi-view registration transformer that processes all scans jointly in a unified, compact latent space to directly predict global poses without any pairwise estimation. To maintain tractability, FUSER employs a sparse 3D CNN to encode each scan into low-resolution superpoint features preserving absolute translation cues, followed by a Geometric Alternating Attention module for efficient intra- and inter-scan reasoning. Particularly, we transfer 2D attention priors from off-the-shelf foundation models (i.e., \pi^3) to enhance 3D feature attention. Building upon FUSER and its estimates, we further introduce FUSER-DF, an SE(3) diffusion refinement framework to correct FUSER's estimates through a denoising process over the joint SE(3)^N space. Here, FUSER serves as a surrogate multiview register to model the denoiser, and a prior-conditioned SE(3)^N variational lower bound is derived for denoising supervision. Extensive experiments on 3DMatch and ScanNet confirm the superior registration accuracy and efficiency of our method.
CaT-GS: Efficient 3DGS Rendering for Large-Scale Scenes with Inter-frame Caching and Tile Scheduling
PDF ↗Recent breakthroughs in 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) have advanced neural rendering with high fidelity and speed. However, its performance degrades significantly in large-scale scenes due to the computational burden of tile-based rasterization. Existing optimization efforts either require costly scene re-training or focus on narrow aspects of the pipeline, overlooking critical inefficiencies in real-world deployments. Through a comprehensive analysis, we identify three primary sources of redundancy and low GPU utilization: redundant inter-frame pre-processing, viewpoint-based occlusion redundancy, and severe tile-level load imbalance. To address these issues, we propose CaT-GS, a novel and efficient 3DGS rendering pipeline. CaT-GS introduces a speculative multi-frame preprocessing method to eliminate redundant computations across consecutive frames, and an inter-frame caching mechanism to eliminate viewpoint redundant rendering stages. Furthermore, it refactors rasterization tasks with a dedicated kernel to mitigate tile load imbalance, significantly boosting GPU utilization. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CaT-GS achieves a speedup of up to 10 times over the original 3DGS and up to 70% over previous state-of-the-art methods, establishing a new benchmark for high-fidelity, real-time rendering of large-scale scenes.
Existing methods for extracting reward signals in Reinforcement Learning typically rely on labeled data and dedicated training splits, a setup that contrasts with how humans learn directly from their environment.In this work, we propose TTRV to enhance vision-language understanding by adapting the model on-the-fly at inference time, without the need for any labeled data.Concretely, we enhance the Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) framework by designing rewards based on the frequency of the base model's output, while inferring on each test sample multiple times.Further, we also propose to control the diversity of the model's output by simultaneously rewarding the model for obtaining low entropy of the output empirical distribution.Our approach delivers consistent gains across both object recognition and visual question answering (VQA), with improvements of up to 52.4% and 29.8%, respectively, and average boosts of 24.6% and 10.0% across 16 datasets. Remarkably, on image recognition, TTRV applied to Intern-VL-8B surpasses GPT-4o by an average of 2.3% over 8 benchmarks, while remaining highly competitive on VQA, demonstrating that test-time reinforcement learning can match or exceed the strongest proprietary models. Finally, we find many interesting properties of test-time RL for VLMs: for example, even in extremely data-constrained scenarios, where adaptation is performed on a single randomly chosen unlabeled test example, \method still yields non-trivial improvements of up to 5.5% in recognition tasks.
