Stereo image compression (SIC) has become increasingly vital with its applications surging in fields such as 3D reconstruction and autonomous navigation. Previous methods leverage cross-attention to model inter-view redundancy and employ autoregressive entropy models to predict probability distributions, achieving impressive rate-distortion performance. However, they suffer from slow coding speed due to the quadratic complexity of cross-attention mechanisms and the spatial autoregressive iterations of the entropy models. To address these limitations, we propose MambaSIC, which introduces two key innovations. First, we propose a Mamba-based stereo visual state space block (stereo VSSB) that leverages its linear complexity and long-range modeling capabilities to more rapidly and efficiently capture redundancy information between the two views. Second, to accelerate the compression process and enhance the accuracy of probability estimation, we introduce a bi-directional multi-reference entropy model that utilizes a checkerboard partitioning strategy and the stereo VSSB to get rich inter-view priors. Experimental results demonstrate that our MambaSIC outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in both compression performance and efficiency.

We consider the problem of imaging a dynamic scene when scene appearance variations can outpace photon arrivals. Under such conditions, a pixel is effectively "blind" to changes in appearance that occur within the timespan separating the photons it detects, and so the inter-photon interval presents a significant speed barrier to video acquisition systems. To analyze and advance imaging capabilities at the inter-photon limit, we introduce a novel reparameterization of time-varying flux that reveals the intrinsic difficulty of signal reconstruction by relating the Fourier decomposition of a flux function to the number of photons arriving within each oscillation period. We find that inter-photon-limited videography of general scenes is underexplored and beyond the reach of existing reconstruction techniques. To this end, we introduce Neural Flux Fields---a technique that combines statistical modeling of photon arrival with intrinsic priors of a neural network to achieve robust videography at the inter-photon limit. Using this approach, we demonstrate never-before-seen capabilities in video reconstruction across a range of captured single-photon video datasets spanning the inter-photon-limited regime.

RAW images preserve superior fidelity and rich scene information compared to RGB, making them essential for tasks in challenging imaging conditions. To alleviate the high cost of data collection, recent RGB-to-RAW conversion methods aim to synthesize RAW images from RGB. However, they overlook two key challenges: (i) the reconstruction difficulty varies with pixel intensity, and (ii) multi-camera conversion requires camera-specific adaptation. To address these issues, we propose SpiralDiff, a diffusion based framework tailored for RGB-to-RAW conversion with a signal-dependent noise weighting strategy that adapts reconstruction fidelity across intensity levels. In addition, we introduce CamLoRA, a camera-aware lightweight adaptation module that enables a unified model to adapt to different camera-specific ISP characteristics. Extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets demonstrate the superiority of SpiralDiff in RGB-to-RAW conversion quality and its downstream benefits in RAW-based object detection.

Existing methods for learning with noisy labels (LNL) predominantly rely on the small-loss trick, assuming that low-loss samples are more likely to be correctly labeled. While effective, this strategy suffers from two overlooked confirmation biases: (1) Class-level confirmation bias: samples from easy-to-learn classes tend to have lower losses, leading to over-selection of easy samples while ignore hard ones; (2) Instance-level confirmation bias: mislabeled samples with spuriously low loss are mistakenly treated as clean, forcing the model to memorize wrong labels. Both biases accumulate over training and degrade performance. To mitigate these issues, we propose Marginal Distribution Adjustment (MDA) and Candidate Class Selection (CCS). MDA dynamically reshapes the model's predicted class distribution toward uniformity, ensuring more fair sample selection across classes. CCS leverages training dynamics to identify likely true labels and removes them from the classification task, preventing memorization of incorrect annotations while converting weakly related labels into useful supervision. Both MDA and CCS are plug-and-play modules. Extensive experiments show that integrating MDA and CCS into either existing sample selectors or advanced LNL pipeline consistently enhances performance on both CIFAR-10/100 with synthetic noise and real-world datasets (CIFAR-N, Clothing1M, WebVision), demonstrating their broad applicability in LNL methods.

Diffusion models achieve strong generative performance but remain slow at inference due to the need for repeated full-model denoising passes. We present Token-Adaptive Predictor (TAP), a training-free, probe-driven framework that adaptively selects a predictor for each token at every sampling step. TAP uses a single full evaluation of the model's first layer as a low-cost probe to compute proxy losses for a compact family of candidate predictors (instantiated primarily with Taylor expansions of varying order and horizon), then assigns each token the predictor with the smallest proxy error. This per-token "probe-then-select" strategy exploits heterogeneous temporal dynamics, requires no additional training, and is compatible with various predictor designs. TAP incurs negligible overhead while enabling large speedups with little or no perceptual quality loss. Extensive experiments across multiple diffusion architectures and generation tasks show that TAP substantially improves the accuracy-efficiency frontier compared to fixed global predictors and caching-only baselines.

Diffusion Models have emerged as a leading class of generative models, yet their iterative sampling process remains computationally expensive. Timestep distillation is a promising technique to accelerate generation, but it often requires extensive training and leads to image quality degradation. Furthermore, fine-tuning these distilled models for specific objectives, such as aesthetic appeal or user preference, using Reinforcement Learning (RL) is notoriously unstable and easily falls into reward hacking. In this work, we introduce Flash-DMD, a novel framework that enables fast convergence with distillation and joint RL-based refinement.Specifically, we first propose an efficient timestep-aware distillation strategy that significantly reduces training cost with enhanced realism, outperforming DMD2 with only 2.1% its training cost. Second, we introduce a joint training scheme where the model is fine-tuned with an RL objective while the timestep distillation training continues simultaneously. We demonstrate that the stable, well-defined loss from the ongoing distillation acts as a powerful regularizer, effectively stabilizing the RL training process and preventing policy collapse. Extensive experiments on score-based and flow matching models show that our proposed Flash-DMD not only converges significantly faster but also achieves state-of-the-art generation quality in the few-step sampling regime, outperforming existing methods in visual quality, human preference, and text-image alignment metrics. Our work presents an effective paradigm for training efficient, high-fidelity, and stable generative models. Codes are attached in the supplementary.

In recent times, large datasets hinder efficient model training while also containing redundant concepts. Dataset distillation aims to synthesize compact datasets that preserve the knowledge of large-scale training sets while drastically reducing storage and computation. Recent advances in diffusion models have enabled training-free distillation by leveraging pre-trained generative priors; however, existing guidance strategies remain limited. Current score-based methods either perform unguided denoising or rely on simple mode-based guidance toward instance prototype centroids (IPC centroids), which often are rudimentary and suboptimal. We propose Manifold-Guided Distillation (ManifoldGD), a training-free diffusion-based framework that integrates manifold consistent guidance at every denoising timestep. Our method employs IPCs computed via a hierarchical, divisive clustering of VAE latent features--yielding a multi-scale coreset of IPCs that captures both coarse semantic modes and fine intra-class variability. Using a local neighborhood of the extracted IPC centroids, we create the latent manifold for each diffusion denoising timestep. At each denoising step, we project the mode-alignment vector onto the local tangent space of the estimated latent manifold, thus constraining the generation trajectory to remain manifold-faithful while preserving semantic consistency. This formulation improves representativeness, diversity, and image fidelity without requiring any model retraining. Empirical results demonstrate consistent gains over existing training-free and training-based baselines in terms of FID, l_2 distance among real and synthetic dataset embeddings, and classification accuracy, establishing ManifoldGD as the first geometry-aware training-free data distillation framework.

Boundary representation (B-Rep) generation is a fundamental task in computer-aided design, yet the direct synthesis of high-fidelity and structurally valid B-Reps remains a major challenge. Existing deep generative methods suffer from two forms of brittleness: representation brittleness, caused by padding noise and feature contamination in the latent space, and generation brittleness, stemming from sequential error propagation and a train-inference mismatch due to non-differentiable validity enforcement. We propose HiFi-BRep, a novel framework that addresses these limitations through two synergistic contributions. First, a topology-aware encoder constructs a high-fidelity latent representation by eliminating padding via learnable queries and preventing feature contamination with topology-guided attention. Second, a single-stage decoder jointly predicts geometry and topology in parallel, embedding core manifold constraints as a differentiable learning objective. This design ensures mutual guidance between geometry and topology while avoiding cascaded errors. Extensive experiments show that HiFi-BRep significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both structural validity and geometric fidelity, providing a robust solution for high-quality B-Rep synthesis. Code and models are publicly available at https://github.com/1nnoh/HiFi-BRep.

Human motions are compositional: complex behaviors can be described as combinations of simpler primitives. However, existing approaches primarily focus on forward modeling, e.g., learning holistic mappings from text to motion or composing a complex motion from a set of motion concepts. In this paper, we consider the inverse perspective: decomposing a holistic motion into semantically meaningful sub-components. We propose DeMoGen, a compositional training paradigm for decompositional learning that employs an energy-based diffusion model. This energy formulation directly captures the composed distribution of multiple motion concepts, enabling the model to discover them without relying on ground-truth motions for individual concepts. Within this paradigm, we introduce three training variants to encourage a decompositional understanding of motion: 1. DeMoGen-Exp explicitly trains on decomposed text prompts; 2. DeMoGen-OSS performs orthogonal self-supervised decomposition; 3. DeMoGen-SC enforces semantic consistency between original and decomposed text embeddings. These variants enable our approach to disentangle reusable motion primitives from complex motion sequences. We also demonstrate that the decomposed motion concepts can be flexibly recombined to generate diverse and novel motions, generalizing beyond the training distribution. Additionally, we construct a text-decomposed dataset to support compositional training, serving as an extended resource to facilitate text-to-motion generation and motion composition.

We present DuoMo, a generative method that recovers human motion in world-space coordinates from unconstrained videos with noisy or incomplete observations. Reconstructing such motion requires solving a fundamental trade-off: generalizing from diverse and noisy video inputs while maintaining global motion consistency. Our approach addresses this problem by factorizing motion learning into two diffusion models. The camera-space model first estimates motion from videos in camera coordinates. The world-space model then lifts this initial estimate into world coordinates and refines it to be globally consistent. Together, the two models can reconstruct motion across diverse scenes and trajectories, even from highly noisy or incomplete observations. Moreover, our formulation is general, generating the motion of mesh vertices directly (bypassing parametric models). DuoMo achieves state-of-the-art performance. On EMDB, our method obtains a 16% reduction in world-space MPJPE error while maintaining low foot skating. On RICH, it obtains a 30% reduction in world-space MPJPE error.

Video data is more cost-effective than motion capture data for learning 3D character controllers, yet using it to generate realistic and physically plausible motions remains challenging. Previous approaches typically rely on off-the-shelf motion reconstruction techniques to extract 3D kinematic trajectories for physics-based imitation. However, these approaches are fundamentally limited by the physical implausibility of the estimated motions and lack a unified framework for handling non-human subjects and complex human-object interactions (HOI). We tackle this challenge by introducing Mimic2DM, a novel motion imitation framework that learns the control policy directly and solely from 2D motions extracted from videos. By formulating a 2D motion tracking objective, we train a general single-view tracking policy capable of imitating arbitrary reference motions in a physics simulation using exclusively 2D data. Furthermore, by training on 2D motions from diverse viewpoints, our view-agnostic policy implicitly learns 3D motion structures, allowing it to perform full 3D motion tracking simply by aggregating multiple views. To extend this capability, we integrate the tracking policy with an autoregressive transformer-based 2D motion generator, constructing a hierarchical control framework capable of long-horizon motion synthesis and interactive control. We show that the proposed approach is versatile and effectively synthesizes physically plausible and diverse motions across a range of domains, including dancing, soccer dribbling, and animal locomotion, without any reliance on explicit 3D motion data.

Test-Time Adaptation (TTA) enhances model robustness to out-of-distribution (OOD) data by updating the model online during inference, yet existing methods lack theoretical insights into the fundamental causes of performance degradation under domain shifts. Recently, Neural Collapse (NC) has been proposed as an emergent geometric property of deep neural networks (DNNs), providing valuable insights for TTA. In this work, we extend NC to the sample-wise level and discover a novel phenomenon termed Sample-wise Alignment Collapse (NC3+), demonstrating that a sample's feature embedding, obtained by a trained model, aligns closely with the corresponding classifier weight. Building on NC3+, we identify that the performance degradation stems from sample-wise misalignment in adaptation which exacerbates under larger distribution shifts. This indicates the necessity of realigning the feature embeddings with their corresponding classifier weights. However, the misalignment makes pseudo-labels unreliable under domain shifts. To address this challenge, we propose NCTTA, a novel feature-classifier alignment method with hybrid targets to mitigate the impact of unreliable pseudo-labels, which blends geometric proximity with predictive confidence. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of NCTTA in enhancing robustness to domain shifts. For example, NCTTA outperforms Tent by 14.52% on ImageNet-C.

Monocular UAV videos pose a fundamental challenge for 3D reconstruction: dynamic scene modeling requires accurate camera poses, yet recovering poses from long UAV trajectories often fails in texture-sparse regions and in the presence of moving objects. Existing approaches typically handle either pose-free static reconstruction or dynamic reconstruction with known poses, but jointly solving both from casual aerial footage remains difficult due to motion coupling and severe scale variation. We introduce AeroGS, a scale-aware Gaussian splatting framework that jointly recovers camera trajectories and reconstructs dynamic scenes from pose-free monocular videos. Central to our method are scale-aware spatio-temporal anchors (S2A-Anchors), which enable a unified optimization via three key decoupling mechanisms: (i) separating ego-motion from object motion, (ii) isolating static geometry from temporal deformation, and (iii) adapting to scale variation between distant terrain and nearby objects. This design effectively stabilizes optimization under large motion and scale imbalance. Extensive experiments on UAV and driving benchmarks show that AeroGS achieves state-of-the-art rendering quality (PSNR/LPIPS), precise trajectory recovery (ATE/RPE), and faithful motion reconstruction, consistently surpassing recent pose-free baselines.

Existing literature typically treats various customized generation tasks (e.g., subject-customized generation, style-customized generation) as distinct and disjoint problems, with each task focusing solely on customizing a specific aspect of the reference image. However, we argue that the objectives of these different customization tasks are inherently complementary and can be mutually enhanced within a unified framework, as they fundamentally involve the disentanglement of multiple feature aspects from the reference image. To this end, we introduce USO, a Unified Simultaneous Optimization framework to simultaneously unify different customized tasks (i.e., subject and style). Specifically, USO introduces a cyclical data-model framework that connects these two tasks by a subject-for-style data curation pipeline and a style-for-subject model training pipeline. The subject-for-style data curation pipeline leverages a state-of-the-art subject-customized model to generate high-quality triplet data comprising content images, style images, and their corresponding stylized content images. Building on this foundation, the style-for-subject model training pipeline introduces an auxiliary style reward to simultaneously align style and content features, thereby reinforcing the model's ability to extract the desired style or content features from the reference image. Extensive experiments demonstrate that USO achieves state-of-the-art performance among open-source models, excelling in both subject consistency and style similarity.

While traditional and neural video codecs (NVCs) have achieved remarkable rate-distortion performance, improving perceptual quality at low bitrates remains challenging. Some NVCs incorporate perceptual or adversarial objectives but still suffer from artifacts due to limited generation capacity, whereas others leverage pretrained diffusion models to improve quality at the cost of high sampling complexity. To overcome these challenges, we propose S2VC, a Single Step diffusion-based Video Codec that integrates a conditional coding framework with an efficient single-step diffusion generator, enabling realistic reconstruction at low bitrates with reduced sampling cost. Recognizing the importance of semantic conditioning in single-step diffusion, we introduce Contextual Semantic Guidance to extract frame-adaptive semantics from buffered features. This guidance replaces text captions with efficient, fine-grained conditioning, thereby improving generation realism. In addition, Temporal Consistency Guidance is incorporated into the diffusion U-Net to enforce temporal coherence across frames and ensure stable generation. Extensive experiments show that S2VC delivers state-of-the-art perceptual quality with an average bitrate saving of 51.62% over prior perceptual method, underscoring the promise of single-step diffusion for efficient, high-quality video compression.

Style-conditioned scene text generation faces unique challenges in extracting precise text styles from complex backgrounds and maintaining fine-grained style consistency across characters, especially for multilingual scripts. We propose StyleTextGen, a novel framework that learns to perceive and replicate visual text styles across different languages and writing systems. Our approach features three key contributions: First, we introduce a dual-branch style encoder dedicated to style modeling, yielding robust multilingual text style representations in complex real-world scenes. Second, we design a text style consistency loss that enhances style coherence and improves overall visual quality. Third, we develop a mask-guided inference strategy that ensures precise style alignment between generated and reference text. To facilitate systematic evaluation, we construct StyleText-CE, a bilingual scene text style benchmark covering both monolingual and cross-lingual settings. Extensive experiments demonstrate that StyleTextGen significantly outperforms existing methods in style consistency and cross-lingual generalization, establishing new state-of-the-art performance in multilingual style-conditioned text generation.

Achieving fully autonomous driving systems requires learning rational decisions in a wide span of scenarios, including safety-critical and out-of-distribution ones. However, such cases are underrepresented in real-world corpus collected by human experts. To complement for the lack of data diversity, we introduce a novel and scalable simulation framework capable of synthesizing massive unseen states upon existing driving logs. Our pipeline utilizes advanced neural rendering with a reactive environment to generate high-fidelity multi-view observations controlled by the perturbed ego trajectory. Furthermore, we develop a pseudo-expert trajectory generation mechanism for these newly simulated states to provide action supervision. Upon the synthesized data, we find that a simple co-training strategy on both real-world and simulated samples can lead to significant improvements in both robustness and generalization for various planning methods on challenging real-world benchmarks, up to +8.6 EPDMS on navhard and +2.9 on navtest. More importantly, such policy improvement scales smoothly by increasing simulation data only, even without extra real-world data streaming in. We further reveal several crucial findings of such a sim-real learning system, which we term SimScale, including the design of pseudo-experts and the scaling properties for different policy architectures. Simulation data and code have been released at https://github.com/OpenDriveLab/SimScale.

In remote sensing rotated object detection, mainstream methods suffer from two bottlenecks, directional incoherence at detector neck and task conflict at detecting head. Ulitising fourier rotation equivariance, we introduce Fourier Angle Alignment, which analyses angle information through frequency spectrum and aligns the main direction to a certain orientation. Then we propose two plug and play modules : FAAFusion and FAA Head. FAAFusion works at the detector neck, aligning the main direction of higher-level features to the lower-level features and then fusing them. FAA Head serves as a new detection head, which pre-aligns RoI features to a canonical angle and adds them to the original features before classification and regression. Experiments on DOTA-v1.0, DOTA-v1.5 and HRSC2016 show that our method can greatly improve previous work. Particularly, our method achieves new state-of-the-art results of 78.72% mAP on DOTA-v1.0 and 72.28% mAP on DOTA-v1.5 datasets with single scale training and testing, validating the efficacy of our approach in remote sensing object detection. The code will be public upon acceptance.

Domain Generalization in Semantic Segmentation (DG-SS) aims to enable segmentation models to perform robustly in unseen environments. However, conventional DG-SS methods are restricted to a fixed set of known categories, limiting their applicability in open-world scenarios. Recent progress in Vision-Language Models (VLMs) has advanced Open-Vocabulary Semantic Segmentation (OV-SS) by enabling models to recognize a broader range of concepts. Yet, these models remain sensitive to domain shifts and struggle to maintain robustness when deployed in unseen environments, a challenge that is particularly severe in urban-driving scenarios. To bridge this gap, we introduce Open-Vocabulary Domain Generalization in Semantic Segmentation (OVDG-SS), a new setting that jointly addresses unseen domains and unseen categories. We introduce the first benchmark for OVDG-SS in autonomous driving, addressing a previously unexplored problem and covering both synthetic-to-real and real-to-real generalization across diverse unseen domains and unseen categories. In OVDG-SS, we observe that domain shifts often distort text-image correlations in pre-trained VLMs, which hinders the performance of OV-SS models. To tackle this challenge, we propose S^2-Corr, a state-space-driven text-image correlation refinement mechanism that can mitigate domain-induced distortions and produce a more consistent text-image correlation under distribution changes. Extensive experiments on our constructed benchmark demonstrate that the proposed method achieves superior cross-domain performance and efficiency compared to existing OV-SS approaches.

This paper introduces UniMERNet, a high-accuracy, computation-efficient algorithm for Mathematical Expression Recognition (MER) across diverse real-world scenarios. To facilitate UniMERNet's training, we constructed UniMER-1M, a million-scale dataset whose unprecedented diversity endows the model with robust generalization ability. Through in-depth analysis, we discover a distinctive raster-scan pattern (left-to-right, top-to-bottom) in the attention distribution of Transformer models for MER tasks, which closely aligns with human reading habits. Based on this key finding, we design an innovative **Raster-Scan Attention** mechanism that employs a "horizontal-first, vertical-second" sequential attention computation strategy. This approach not only successfully reduces computational complexity from \mathcal O (NH^2W^2D) to \mathcal O (NHWD(H + W)) , but also enables the model to capture long-range dependencies more efficiently, achieving recognition performance comparable to global attention. Leveraging both UniMER-1M and our innovative attention mechanism, UniMERNet achieves state-of-the-art performance across four real-world scenarios while significantly reducing computational resources compared to global attention: over **1.2x** memory savings during training, approximately **10x** memory reduction during inference, and **5x** speed with slightly improved accuracy. All resources will be publicly released to advance MER research further.
