We present the first method for personalized dental shape reconstruction and teeth-inclusive facial performance capture using only a single phone camera. Our approach democratizes high-quality facial avatars through a non-invasive, low-cost setup by addressing the ill-posed monocular capture problem with an analysis-by-synthesis approach. We introduce a representation adaptation technique that maintains both mesh and SDF representations of teeth, enabling efficient differentiable rendering while preventing teeth-lip interpenetration. To overcome alignment challenges with similar-appearing dental components, we leverage foundation models for semantic teeth segmentation and design specialized optimization objectives. Our method addresses the challenging occlusions of teeth during facial performance through optimization strategies that leverage facial structural priors, while our semantic mask rendering loss with optimal transport-based matching ensures convergence despite significant variations in initial positioning.

Open-vocabulary 3D semantic segmentation has been actively studied by incorporating language features into 3D scene representations.Even though many methods have shown the notable improvement in this task, they still have difficulties to make language embeddings be consistent across different views. This inconsistency highly results in mis-labeling where different language embeddings are assigned to the same part of an object. To address this issue, we propose a simple yet powerful method that aligns language embeddings via the identity information. The key idea is to locate language embeddings for the same identity closely in the latent space while putting them apart otherwise. This approach allows the same object to have identical language embeddings in novel views with accurate semantic masks, which are well aligned with the input text. Furthermore, we propose a progressive mask expanding scheme that enables more accurate extraction of semantic mask boundaries. This scheme is very effective in preserving the boundary shape of the target region by allowing the model to consider the local relationship between segments. Experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate that our method delivers state-of-the-art performance in open-vocabulary 3D semantic segmentation.
Understanding user actions and their possible mistakes is essential for successful operation of task assistants. In this paper, we develop a unified framework for joint temporal action segmentation and error recognition (recognizing when and which type of error happens) in procedural task videos. We propose a Generalized Task Graph (GTG) whose nodes encode correct steps and background (task-irrelevant actions). We then develop a GTG-Video Alignment algorithm (GTG2Vid) to jointly segment videos into actions and detect frames containing errors. Given that it is infeasible to gather many videos and their annotations for different types of errors, we study a framework that only requires normal (error-free) videos during training. More specifically, we leverage large language models (LLMs) to obtain error descriptions and subsequently use video-language models (VLMs) to generate visually-aligned textual features, which we use for error recognition. We then propose an Error Recognition Module (ERM) to recognize the error frames predicted by GTG2Vid using the generated error features. By extensive experiments on two egocentric datasets of EgoPER and CaptainCook4D, we show that our framework outperforms other baselines on action segmentation, error detection and recognition.
Cancers identified in CT scans are usually accompanied by detailed radiology reports, but publicly available CT datasets often lack these essential reports. This absence limits their usefulness for developing accurate report generation AI. To address this gap, we present AbdomenAtlas 3.0, the first public, high-quality abdominal CT dataset with detailed, expert-reviewed radiology reports. All reports are paired with per-voxel masks and they describe liver, kidney and pancreatic tumors. AbdomenAtlas 3.0 has 9,262 triplets of CT, mask and report--3,955 with tumors. These CT scans come from 17 public datasets. Besides creating the reports for these datasets, we expanded their number of tumor masks by 4.2x, identifying 3,011 new tumor cases. Notably, the reports in AbdomenAtlas 3.0 are more standardized, and generated faster than traditional human-made reports. They provide details like tumor size, location, attenuation and surgical resectability. These reports were created by 12 board-certified radiologists using our proposed RadGPT, a novel framework that converted radiologist-revised tumor segmentation masks into structured and narrative reports. Besides being a dataset creation tool, RadGPT can also become a fully-automatic, segmentation-assisted report generation method. We benchmarked this method and 5 state-of-the-art report generation vision-language models. Our results show that segmentation strongly improves tumor detection in AI-made reports.
The Segment Anything Model (SAM), a prompt-driven foundation model for natural image segmentation, has demonstrated impressive zero-shot performance. However, SAM is not directly applicable to medical image segmentation due to its inability to predict semantic labels, reliance on additional prompts, and suboptimal performance in this domain. To address these limitations, we propose MaskSAM, a novel prompt-free SAM adaptation framework for medical image segmentation based on mask classification. MaskSAM introduces a prompt generator integrated with SAM's image encoder to produce auxiliary classifier tokens, binary masks, and bounding boxes. Each pair of auxiliary mask and box prompts eliminates the need for user-provided prompts. Semantic label prediction is enabled by summing the auxiliary classifier tokens with learnable global classifier tokens in SAM's mask decoder. Additionally, we design a 3D depth-convolution adapter for image embeddings and a 3D depth-MLP adapter for prompt embeddings, which are injected into each transformer block in the image encoder and mask decoder to efficiently fine-tune SAM for volumetric medical imaging. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance, with a Dice score of 90.52% on AMOS2022, outperforming nnUNet by 2.7%. MaskSAM also surpasses nnUNet by 1.8% on ACDC and 1.0% on the Synapse dataset, demonstrating its effectiveness in medical image segmentation. We release our code at https://github.com/bxie9/MaskSAM.
Class Token as Proxy: Optimal Transport-assisted Proxy Learning for Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation
PDF ↗Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation (WSSS) utilizes Class Activation Maps (CAMs) to extract spatial cues from image-level labels. However, CAMs highlight only the most discriminative foreground regions, leading to incomplete results. Recent Vision Transformer-based methods leverage class-patch attention to enhance CAMs, yet they still suffer from partial activation due to the token gap: classification-focused class tokens prioritize discriminative features, while patch tokens capture both discriminative and non-discriminative characteristics. This mismatch prevents class tokens from activating all relevant features, especially when discriminative and non-discriminative regions exhibit significant differences. To address this issue, we propose Optimal Transport-assisted Proxy Learning (OTPL), a novel framework that bridges the token gap by learning adaptive proxies. OTPL introduces two key strategies: (1) optimal transport-assisted proxy learning, which combines class tokens with their most relevant patch tokens to produce comprehensive CAMs, and (2) optimal transport-enhanced contrastive learning, aligning proxies with confident patch tokens for bounded proxy exploration. Our framework overcomes the limitation of class tokens in activating patch tokens, providing more complete and accurate CAM results. Experiments on WSSS benchmarks (PASCAL VOC and MS COCO) demonstrate that our method significantly improves the CAM quality and achieves state-of-the-art performances.
The recent segmentation foundation model, Segment Anything Model (SAM), exhibits strong zero-shot segmentation capabilities, but it falls short in generating fine-grained precise masks. To address this limitation, we propose a novel zero-shot image matting model, called ZIM, with two key contributions: First, we develop a label converter that transforms segmentation labels into detailed matte labels, constructing the new SA1B-Matte dataset without costly manual annotations. Training SAM with this dataset enables it to generate precise matte masks while maintaining its zero-shot capability. Second, we design the zero-shot matting model equipped with a hierarchical pixel decoder to enhance mask representation, along with a prompt-aware masked attention mechanism to improve performance by enabling the model to focus on regions specified by visual prompts. We evaluate ZIM using the newly introduced MicroMat-3K test set, which contains high-quality micro-level matte labels. Experimental results show that ZIM outperforms existing methods in fine-grained mask generation and zero-shot generalization. Furthermore, we demonstrate the versatility of ZIM in various downstream tasks requiring precise masks, such as image inpainting and 3D segmentation. Our contributions provide a robust foundation for advancing zero-shot matting and its downstream applications across a wide range of computer vision tasks. The code is available at https://naver-ai.github.io/ZIM.
DeRIS: Decoupling Perception and Cognition for Enhanced Referring Image Segmentation through Loopback Synergy
PDF ↗Referring Image Segmentation (RIS) is a challenging task that aims to segment objects in an image based on natural language expressions. While prior studies have predominantly concentrated on improving vision-language interactions and achieving fine-grained localization, a systematic analysis of the fundamental bottlenecks in existing RIS frameworks remains underexplored. To bridge this gap, we propose DeRIS , a novel framework that decomposes RIS into two key components: perception and cognition . This modular decomposition facilitates a systematic analysis of the primary bottlenecks impeding RIS performance. Our findings reveal that the predominant limitation lies not in perceptual deficiencies, but in the insufficient multi-modal cognitive capacity of current models. To mitigate this, we propose a Loopback Synergy mechanism, which enhances the synergy between the perception and cognition modules, thereby enabling precise segmentation while simultaneously improving robust image-text comprehension. Additionally, we analyze and introduce a simple non-referent sample conversion data augmentation to address the long-tail distribution issue related to target existence judgement in general scenarios. Notably, DeRIS demonstrates inherent adaptability to both non- and multi-referents scenarios without requiring specialized architectural modifications, enhancing its general applicability. The codes and models are available at https://github.com/Dmmm1997/DeRIS
Recent advances in intuitive 3D segmentation from 2D images have demonstrated impressive performance. However, current models typically require extensive scene-specific training to accurately reconstruct and segment objects, which limits their applicability in real-time scenarios. In this paper, we introduce WildSeg3D, an efficient approach that enables the segmentation of arbitrary 3D objects across diverse environments using a feed-forward mechanism. A key challenge of this feed-forward approach lies in the accumulation of 3D alignment errors across multiple 2D views, which can lead to inaccurate 3D segmentation results. To address this issue, we propose Dynamic Global Aligning (DGA), a technique that improves the accuracy of global multi-view alignment by focusing on difficult-to-match 3D points across images, using a dynamic adjustment function. Additionally, for real-time intuitive segmentation, we introduce Multi-view Group Mapping (MGM), a method that utilizes an object mask cache to integrate multi-view segmentations and respond rapidly to user prompts. WildSeg3D demonstrates robust generalization across arbitrary scenes, thereby eliminating the need for scene-specific training. Specifically, WildSeg3D not only attains the accuracy of state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods but also achieves a 40xspeedup compared to existing SOTA models. Code will be released at \href https://github.com/Ethan16162/WildSeg3D https://github.com/Ethan16162/WildSeg3D .
Large vision models like the Segment Anything Model (SAM) exhibit significant limitations when applied to downstream tasks in the wild. Consequently, reference segmentation, which leverages reference images and their corresponding masks to impart novel knowledge to the model, emerges as a promising new direction for adapting vision models. However, existing reference segmentation approaches predominantly rely on meta-learning, which still necessitates an extensive meta-training process and brings massive data and computational cost. In this study, we propose a novel approach by representing the inherent correspondence between reference-target image pairs as a pseudo video. This perspective allows the latest version of SAM, known as SAM2, which is equipped with interactive video object segmentation (iVOS) capabilities, to be adapted to downstream tasks in a lightweight manner. We term this approach Correspondence As Video for SAM (CAV-SAM). CAV-SAM comprises two key modules: the Diffusion-Based Semantic Transition (DBST) module employs a diffusion model to construct a semantic transformation sequence, while the Test-Time Geometric Alignment (TTGA) module aligns the geometric changes within this sequence through test-time fine-tuning. We evaluated CAV-SAM on widely-used datasets, achieving segmentation performance improvements exceeding 5% over SOTA methods. Our implementation is available at https://github.com/wanghr64/cav-sam.
RAGNet: Large-scale Reasoning-based Affordance Segmentation Benchmark towards General Grasping
PDF ↗General robotic grasping systems require accurate object affordance perception in diverse open-world scenarios following human instructions. However, current studies suffer from the problem of lacking reasoning-based large-scale affordance prediction data, leading to considerable concern about open-world effectiveness. To address this limitation, we build a large-scale grasping-oriented affordance segmentation benchmark with human-like instructions, named RAGNet. It contains 273k images, 180 categories, and 26k reasoning instructions. The images cover diverse embodied data domains, such as wild, robot, ego-centric, and even simulation data. They are carefully annotated with an affordance map, while the difficulty of language instructions is largely increased by removing their category name and only providing functional descriptions. Furthermore, we propose a comprehensive affordance-based grasping framework, named AffordanceNet, which consists of a VLM pre-trained on our massive affordance data and a grasping network that conditions an affordance map to grasp the target. Extensive experiments on affordance segmentation benchmarks and real-robot manipulation tasks show that our model has a powerful open-world generalization ability. Our data and code is available at this link.
Video Temporal Grounding (VTG) aims to precisely identify video event segments in response to textual queries. The outputs of VTG tasks manifest as sequences of events, each defined by precise timestamps, saliency scores, and textual descriptions. Despite recent advances, a fundamental limitation persists in existing Video Large Language Models (Video-LLMs): they process all task tokens through identical and static pathways, failing to recognize that temporal localization, saliency assessment, and textual generation represent fundamentally distinct tasks requiring specialized processing. To address this, we introduce TimeExpert, a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE)-based Video-LLM that effectively decomposes VTG tasks by dynamically routing task-specific tokens (e.g., timestamps, saliency scores) to specialized experts, with increased computational efficiency. Our design choices enable precise handling of each subtask, leading to improved event modeling across diverse VTG applications. Extensive experiments demonstrate that TimeExpert consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance on various VTG tasks such as Dense Video Captioning, Moment Retrieval, and Video Highlight Detection.
Understanding the dynamics of a physical scene involves reasoning about the diverse ways it can potentially change, especially as a result of local interactions. We present the Flow Poke Transformer (FPT), a novel framework for directly predicting the distribution of local motion, conditioned on sparse interactions termed "pokes". Unlike traditional methods that typically only enable dense sampling of a single realization of scene dynamics, FPT provides an interpretable directly accessible representation of multi-modal scene motion, its dependency on physical interactions and the inherent uncertainties of scene dynamics. We also evaluate our model on several downstream tasks to enable comparisons with prior methods and highlight the flexibility of our approach. On dense face motion generation, our generic pre-trained model surpasses specialized baselines. FPT can be fine-tuned in strongly out-of-distribution tasks such as synthetic datasets to enable significant improvements over in-domain methods in articulated object motion estimation. Additionally, predicting explicit motion distributions directly enables our method to achieve competitive performance on tasks like moving part segmentation from pokes which further demonstrates the versatility of our FPT.
Procedural videos are critical for learning new tasks. Temporal action segmentation (TAS), which classifies the action in every video frame, has become essential for understanding procedural videos. Existing TAS models, however, learn a fixed-set of tasks at training and unable to adapt to novel tasks at test time. Thus, we introduce the new problem of Multi-Modal Few-shot Temporal Action Segmentation (MMF-TAS) to learn open-set models that can generalize to novel procedural tasks with minimal visual/textual examples. We propose the first MMF-TAS framework, by designing a Prototype Graph Network (PGNet). In PGNet, a Prototype Building Block summarizes action information from support videos of the novel tasks via an Action Relation Graph, and encodes this information into action prototypes via a Dynamic Graph Transformer. Next, a Matching Block compares action prototypes with query videos to infer framewise action labels. To exploit the advantages of both visual and textual modalities, we compute separate action prototypes for each modality and combine the two modalities through prediction fusion to avoid overfitting on one modality. By extensive experiments on procedural datasets, we show our method successfully adapts to novel tasks during inference and significantly outperforms baselines. Our code is available at https://github.com/ZijiaLewisLu/ICCV2025-MMF-TAS.
Domain Generalized Semantic Segmentation (DGSS) is a critical yet challenging task, as domain shifts in unseen environments can severely compromise model performance. While recent studies enhance feature alignment by projecting features into the source domain, they often neglect intrinsic latent domain priors, leading to suboptimal results. In this paper, we introduce PDAF, a Probabilistic Diffusion Alignment Framework that enhances the generalization of existing segmentation networks through probabilistic diffusion modeling. PDAF introduces a Latent Domain Prior (LDP) to capture domain shifts and uses this prior as a conditioning factor to align both source and unseen target domains. To achieve this, PDAF integrates into a pre-trained segmentation model and utilizes paired source and pseudo-target images to simulate latent domain shifts, enabling LDP modeling. The framework comprises three modules: the Latent Prior Extractor (LPE) predicts the LDP by supervising domain shifts; the Domain Compensation Module (DCM) adjusts feature representations to mitigate domain shifts; and the Diffusion Prior Estimator (DPE) leverages a diffusion process to estimate the LDP without requiring paired samples. This design enables PDAF to iteratively model domain shifts, progressively refining feature representations to enhance generalization under complex target conditions. Extensive experiments validate the effectiveness of PDAF across diverse and challenging urban scenes.
Estimating physical properties for visual data is a crucial task in computer vision, graphics, and robotics, underpinning applications such as augmented reality, physical simulation, and robotic grasping. However, this area remains under-explored due to the inherent ambiguities in physical property estimation. To address these challenges, we introduce GaussianProperty, a training-free framework that assigns physical properties of materials to 3D Gaussians. Specifically, we integrate the segmentation capability of SAM with the recognition capability of GPT-4V(ision) to formulate a global-local physical property reasoning module for 2D images. Then we project the physical properties from multi-view 2D images to 3D Gaussians using a voting strategy. We demonstrate that 3D Gaussians with physical property annotations enable applications in physics-based dynamic simulation and robotic grasping. For physics-based dynamic simulation, we leverage the Material Point Method (MPM) for realistic dynamic simulation. For robot grasping, we develop a grasping force prediction strategy that estimates a safe force range required for object grasping based on the estimated physical properties. Extensive experiments on material segmentation, physics-based dynamic simulation, and robotic grasping validate the effectiveness of our proposed method, highlighting its crucial role in understanding physical properties from visual data.
Temporal Overlapping Prediction: A Self-supervised Pre-training Method for LiDAR Moving Object Segmentation
PDF ↗Moving object segmentation (MOS) on LiDAR point clouds is crucial for autonomous systems such as self-driving vehicles. While previous supervised approaches rely on costly manual annotations, LiDAR sequences naturally capture temporal motion cues that can be leveraged for self-supervised learning. In this paper, we propose Temporal Overlapping Prediction (TOP), a self-supervised pre-training method designed to alleviate this annotation burden. TOP learns powerful spatiotemporal representations by predicting the occupancy states of temporal overlapping points that are commonly observed in current and adjacent scans. To further ground these representations in the current scene's geometry, we introduce an auxiliary pre-training objective of reconstructing the occupancy of the current scan. Extensive experiments on the nuScenes and SemanticKITTI datasets validate our method's effectiveness. TOP consistently outperforms existing supervised and self-supervised pre-training baselines across both point-level Intersection-over-Union (IoU) and object-level Recall metrics. Notably, it achieves a relative improvement of up to 28.77% over a training-from-scratch baseline and demonstrates strong transferability across LiDAR setups. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/ZiliangMiao/TOP.
Breaking Rectangular Shackles: Cross-View Object Segmentation for Fine-Grained Object Geo-Localization
PDF ↗This paper addresses the limitations of existing cross-view object geo-localization schemes, which rely on rectangular proposals to localize irregular objects in satellite imagery. These "rectangular shackles" inherently struggle to precisely define objects with complex geometries, leading to incomplete coverage or erroneous localization. We propose a novel scheme, cross-view object segmentation (CVOS), which achieves fine-grained geo-localization by predicting pixel-level segmentation masks of query objects. CVOS enables accurate extraction of object shapes, sizes, and areas--critical for applications like urban planning and agricultural monitoring. We introduce the CVOGL-Seg dataset specifically to support and evaluate the new CVOS scheme. To tackle CVOS challenges, we propose Transformer Object Geo-localization (TROGeo), a two-stage framework. First, the Heterogeneous Task Training Stage (HTTS) employs a single transformer encoder with a Cross-View Object Perception Module (CVOPM) and is trained by learning a heterogeneous task. Second, the SAM Prompt Stage (SPS) utilizes SAM's zero-shot segmentation capability, guided by HTTS outputs, to generate precise masks. Extensive experiments on both CVOGL and CVOGL-Seg datasets demonstrate that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance, effectively breaking the rectangular shackles and unlocking new possibilities for fine-grained object geo-localization.

We present SuperDec, an approach for compact 3D scene representations based on geometric primitives, namely superquadrics.While most recent works leverage geometric primitives to obtain photorealistic 3D scene representations, we propose to leverage them to obtain a compact yet expressive representation. We propose to solve the problem locally on individual objects and leverage the capabilities of instance segmentation methods to scale our solution to full 3D scenes. In doing that, we design a new architecture which efficiently decompose point clouds of arbitrary objects in a compact set of superquadrics. We train our architecture on ShapeNet and we prove its generalization capabilities on object instances extracted from the ScanNet++ dataset as well as on full Replica scenes. Finally, we show how a compact representation based on superquadrics can be useful for a diverse range of downstream applications, including robotic tasks and controllable visual content generation and editing.
AM-Adapter: Appearance Matching Adapter for Exemplar-based Semantic Image Synthesis in-the-Wild
PDF ↗Exemplar-based semantic image synthesis generates images aligned with semantic content while preserving the appearance of an exemplar. Conventional structure-guidance models like ControlNet, are limited as they rely solely on text prompts to control appearance and cannot utilize exemplar images as input. Recent tuning-free approaches address this by transferring local appearance via implicit cross-image matching in the augmented self-attention mechanism of pre-trained diffusion models. However, prior works are often restricted to single-object cases or foreground object appearance transfer, struggling with complex scenes involving multiple objects. To overcome this, we propose AM-Adapter (Appearance Matching Adapter) to address exemplar-based semantic image synthesis in-the-wild, enabling multi-object appearance transfer from a single scene-level image. AM-Adapter automatically transfers local appearances from the scene-level input. AM-Adapter alternatively provides controllability to map user-defined object details to specific locations in the synthesized images. Our learnable framework enhances cross-image matching within augmented self-attention by integrating semantic information from segmentation maps. To disentangle generation and matching, we adopt stage-wise training. We first train the structure-guidance and generation networks, followed by training the matching adapter while keeping the others frozen. During inference, we introduce an automated exemplar retrieval method for selecting exemplar image-segmentation pairs efficiently. Despite utilizing minimal learnable parameters, AM-Adapter achieves state-of-the-art performance, excelling in both semantic alignment and local appearance fidelity. Extensive ablations validate our design choices. Code and weights will be released.
