Procedural planning aims to predict a sequence of actions that transforms an initial visual state into a desired goal, a fundamental ability for intelligent agents operating in complex environments. Existing approaches typically rely on large-scale models that learn procedural structures implicitly, resulting in limited sample-efficiency and high computational cost. In this work we introduce ViterbiPlanNet, a principled framework that explicitly integrates procedural knowledge into the learning process through a Differentiable Viterbi Layer (DVL). The DVL embeds a Procedural Knowledge Graph (PKG) directly with the Viterbi decoding algorithm, replacing non-differentiable operations with smooth relaxations that enable end-to-end optimization. This design allows the model to learn through graph-based decoding. Experiments on CrossTask, COIN, and NIV demonstrate that ViterbiPlanNet achieves state-of-the-art performance with an order of magnitude fewer parameters than diffusion- and LLM-based planners. Extensive ablations show that performance gains arise from our differentiable structure-aware training rather than post-hoc refinement, resulting in improved sample efficiency and robustness to shorter unseen horizons. We also address testing inconsistencies establishing a unified testing protocol with consistent splits and evaluation metrics. With this new protocol, we run experiments multiple times and report results using bootstrapping to assess statistical significance.

The rapid evolution of deepfake technologies demands robust and reliable face forgery detection algorithms. While determining whether an image has been manipulated remains essential, the ability to precisely localize forgery clues is also important for enhancing model explainability and building user trust. To address this dual challenge, we introduce DiffusionFF, a diffusion-based framework that simultaneously performs face forgery detection and fine-grained artifact localization. Our key idea is to establish a novel encoder-decoder architecture: a pretrained forgery detector serves as a powerful "artifact encoder", and a denoising diffusion model is repurposed as an "artifact decoder". Conditioned on multi-scale forgery-related features extracted by the encoder, the decoder progressively synthesizes a detailed artifact localization map. We then fuse this fine-grained localization map with high-level semantic features from the forgery detector, leading to substantial improvements in detection capability. Extensive experiments show that DiffusionFF achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance across multiple benchmarks, underscoring its superior effectiveness and explainability.

Recent advancements in video generation highlight that realistic audio-visual synchronization is crucial for engaging content creation. However, existing video editing methods largely overlook audio-visual synchronization and lack the fine-grained spatial and temporal controllability required for precise instance-level edits. In this paper, we propose AVI-Edit, a framework for audio-sync video instance editing. We propose a granularity-aware mask refiner that iteratively refines coarse user-provided masks into precise instance-level regions. We further design a self-feedback audio agent to curate high-quality audio guidance, providing fine-grained temporal control. To facilitate this task, we additionally construct a large-scale dataset with instance-centric correspondence and comprehensive annotations. Extensive experiments demonstrate that AVI-Edit outperforms state-of-the-art methods in visual quality, condition following, and audio-visual synchronization.

We present LumiX, a structured diffusion framework for coherent text-to-intrinsic generation. Conditioned on text prompts, LumiX jointly generates a comprehensive set of intrinsic maps (e.g., albedo, irradiance, normal, depth, and final color), providing a structured and physically consistent description of an underlying scene. This is enabled by two key contributions: 1) Query-Broadcast Attention, a mechanism that ensures structural consistency by sharing queries across all maps in each self-attention block. 2) Tensor LoRA, a tensor-based adaptation that parameter-efficiently models cross-map relations for efficient joint training. Together, these designs enable stable joint diffusion training and unified generation of multiple intrinsic properties. Experiments show that LumiX produces coherent and physically meaningful results, achieving 23% higher alignment and a better preference score (0.19 vs. -0.41) compared to the state of the art, and it can also perform image-conditioned intrinsic decomposition within the same framework.

Monocular depth estimation (MDE) has been widely adopted in the perception systems of autonomous vehicles and mobile robots. However, existing approaches often struggle to maintain temporal consistency in depth estimation across consecutive frames. This inconsistency not only causes jitter but can also lead to estimation failures when the depth range changes abruptly. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a consistency-aware monocular depth estimation framework that leverages wheel odometry from a mobile robot to achieve stable and coherent depth predictions over time. Specifically, we estimate camera pose and sparse depth from triangulation using optical flow between consecutive frames. The sparse depth estimates are used to update a recursive Bayesian estimate of the metric scale, which is then applied to rescale the relative depth predicted by a pre-trained depth estimation foundation model. The proposed method is evaluated on the KITTI, TartanAir, MS2, and our own dataset, demonstrating robust and accurate depth estimation performance.

Cross-view object correspondence, exemplified by the representative task of ego-exo object correspondence, aims to establish consistent associations of the same object across different viewpoints (e.g., ego-centric and exo-centric). This task poses significant challenges due to drastic viewpoint and appearance variations, making existing segmentation models, such as SAM2, non-trivial to apply directly. To address this, we present V^ 2 -SAM, a unified cross-view object correspondence framework that adapts SAM2 from single-view segmentation to cross-view correspondence through two complementary prompt generators. Specifically, the Cross-View Anchor Prompt Generator (V^ 2 -Anchor), built upon DINOv3 features, establishes geometry-aware correspondences and, for the first time, unlocks coordinate-based prompting for SAM2 in cross-view scenarios, while the Cross-View Visual Prompt Generator (V^ 2 -Visual) enhances appearance-guided cues via a novel visual prompt matcher that aligns ego-exo representations from both feature and structural perspectives. To effectively exploit the strengths of both prompts, we further adopt a multi-expert design and introduce a Post-hoc Cyclic Consistency Selector (PCCS) that adaptively selects the most reliable expert based on cyclic consistency. Extensive experiments validate the effectiveness of V^ 2 -SAM, achieving new state-of-the-art performance on Ego-Exo4D (Ego-Exo object correspondence), DAVIS-2017 (video object tracking), and HANDAL-X (robotic-ready cross-view correspondence).

Reliable uncertainty estimation for 3D object detection is critical for deploying safe autonomous systems, yet modern detectors remain poorly calibrated, especially under distribution shifts. Although post-hoc calibration methods address this issue and provide improved calibration for in-distribution tests, they fail to adapt in distribution-shifted scenarios. In this work, we address this issue and introduce a density-aware calibration method that couples post-hoc calibrators with the feature density of latent object queries from DETR-style 3D object detectors. These queries form a compact, location and class-aware feature, ideal for density estimation, allowing our approach to adjust model confidences in distribution-shift scenarios. By fitting a density estimator on these query features, our approach jointly recalibrates both classification and bounding box regression uncertainties. On both a multi-view camera and LiDAR-based detector, our approach consistently outperforms standard post-hoc methods in both in-distribution and distribution-shifted scenarios.

Part-level point cloud segmentation has recently attracted significant attention in 3D computer vision.Nevertheless, existing research is constrained by two major challenges: native 3D models lack generalization due to data scarcity, while introducing 2D pre-trained knowledge often leads to inconsistent segmentation results across different views.To address these challenges, we propose S^2AM3D, which incorporates 2D segmentation priors with 3D consistent supervision. We design a point-consistent part encoder that aggregates multi-view 2D features through native 3D contrastive learning, producing globally consistent point features. A scale-aware prompt decoder is then proposed to enable real-time adjustment of segmentation granularity via continuous scale signals. Simultaneously, we introduce a large-scale, high-quality part-level point cloud dataset with more than 100k samples, providing ample supervision signals for model training.Extensive experiments demonstrate that S^2AM3D achieves leading performance across multiple evaluation settings, exhibiting exceptional robustness and controllability when handling complex structures and parts with significant size variations.

Recent advances in 3D vision-language models (VLMs) highlight a strong potential for 3D scene understanding and reasoning.However, effectively tokenizing 3D scenes into holistic scene tokens, and leveraging these tokens across diverse 3D understanding tasks, remain highly challenging. We present NDTokenizer3D, a generalist 3D VLM that performs a wide range of 3D scene understanding tasks while naturally supporting human interactions, thereby bridging language-level reasoning with 3D spatial understanding. The core of our approach is a novel three-stage scene tokenization pipeline built upon a Multi-Scale Normal Distributions Transform (NDT) representation, paired with a Multi-Scale NDT Decoder (MSDec).Specifically, NDTokenizer3D first constructs a multi-scale NDT representation from raw high-resolution point clouds, preserving both global context and fine-grained geometric details. Next, the MSDec progressively fuses cross-scale NDT features, producing holistic scene tokens consumable by LLM endpoints. Beyond tokenization, MSDec is repurposed as a general interface for human-interactive prompting (points, boxes, masks) and segmentation-mask decoding, unifying diverse 3D scene understanding tasks within a single architecture. With this compact and unified design, NDTokenizer3D offers a fine-grained, general-purpose 3D VLM, achieving remarkable improvements in 3D Referring Segmentation, 3D Visual Question Answering, and 3D Dense Captioning.

Existing 3D editing methods rely on computationally intensive scene-by-scene iterative optimization and suffer from multi-view inconsistency. We propose an effective and feed-forward 3D editing framework based on the TRELLIS generative backbone, capable of modifying 3D models from a single editing view. Our framework addresses two key issues: adapting training-free 2D editing to structured 3D representations, and overcoming the bottleneck of appearance fidelity in compressed 3D features. To ensure geometric consistency, we introduce Voxel FlowEdit, an edit-driven flow in the sparse voxel latent space that achieves globally consistent 3D deformation in a single pass. To restore high-fidelity details, we develop a normal-guided single to multi-view generation module as an external appearance prior, successfully recovering high-frequency textures. Experiments demonstrate that our method enables fast, globally consistent, and high-fidelity 3D model editing.

Fine-grained spatiotemporal reasoning on surgical videos is critical, yet the capabilities of Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) in this domain remain largely unexplored. To bridge this gap, we introduce SurgCoT, a unified benchmark for evaluating chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning in MLLMs across 7 surgical specialties and 35 diverse procedures. SurgCoT assesses five core reasoning dimensions: Causal Action Ordering, Cue-Action Alignment, Affordance Mapping, Micro-Transition Localization, and Anomaly Onset Tracking, through a structured CoT framework with an intensive annotation protocol (Question-Option-Knowledge-Clue-Answer), where the Knowledge field provides essential background context and Clue provides definitive spatiotemporal evidence. Evaluation of 10 leading MLLMs shows: 1) commercial models outperform open-source and medical-specialized variants; 2) significant gaps exist in surgical CoT reasoning; 3) SurgCoT enables effective evaluation and enhances progressive spatiotemporal reasoning. SurgCoT provides a reproducible testbed to narrow the gap between MLLM capabilities and clinical reasoning demands. Code and data: https://github.com/CVI-SZU/SurgCoT.

Weakly supervised learning (WSL) provides a cost-effective learning paradigm for video anomaly detection (VAD) from data with video-level annotation instead of requiring costly fine-grained segment-level annotation. Although contemporary methods have shown promising results on challenging real-world surveillance videos, most of them are evaluated using the Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUROC). We reveal that a high AUROC could result in a very low recall for meaningful False Positive Rate (FPR) thresholds. Thus, these models suffer from limited practical values, especially in high-stake domains (e.g. public safety and medical diagnosis), where missing the true anomalies incur high cost. This surprising phenomenon is rooted in the interplay of weak supervision and the highly imbalanced distribution between normal and anomalous video segments. To tackle this key challenge in VAD systems, we propose a novel dual exploration strategy that combines temporal clustering with uncertainty-based segment exploration. Temporal clustering selects diverse segments based on both semantic and temporal similarity, while uncertainty-based sampling targets low-scoring segments with high model uncertainty. The main aim of exploration is to ensure that the model learns from a wide range of patterns, both diverse and ambiguous, resulting in more informed and robust decision-making, and reduction in false negatives. Meanwhile, we adopt two practical metrics to replace the commonly used AUROC score for a more effective measure for evaluation. Experiments conducted in challenging real-world videos demonstrate that our exploration strategy improves VAD performance compared to the baselines on these metrics, which justifies its improved practical value in real-world settings.

Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) requires the agent to navigate based on natural instructions. This task is challenging due to partial observability, which makes it difficult to align perception with language. Recent methods mitigate this by imagining future scenes, yet they rely on vision-based synthesis, leading to high computational cost and redundant details. To this end, we propose to adaptively imagine key environmental semantics via language form, enabling a more reliable and efficient strategy. Specifically, we introduce Adaptive Text Dreamer (ATD), a dual-branch self-guided imagination policy built upon a large language model (LLM). ATD is designed with a human-like left-right brain architecture, where the left brain focuses on logical integration, and the right brain is responsible for imaginative prediction of future scenes. To achieve this, we fine-tune only the Q-former within both brains to efficiently activate domain-specific knowledge in the LLM, enabling dynamic updates of logical reasoning and imagination during navigation. Furthermore, we propose a cross-interaction mechanism that regularizes the imagined latent-space outputs and integrates them with the navigation expert module via a decoder-free latent interface, thereby enabling ATD to jointly harness the reasoning ability of the LLM and the task-specific knowledge of the navigation model. We conduct extensive experiments across the R2R, REVERIE, and R4R benchmarks, demonstrating that ATD achieves competitive performance with significantly fewer parameters. The code will be available.

While 2D vision has been revolutionized by large-scale datasets like ImageNet, 3D vision remains constrained by the scarcity of high-quality, canonically aligned data. We introduce the first scalable, automated framework that generates complete category-level 6D pose datasets directly from text prompts, bypassing the need for existing 3D assets. Our method overcomes key challenges by: (1) ensuring reliable, scalable asset generation via a controlled text-to-image-to-3D pipeline; (2) enforcing built-in canonical alignment through depth-conditioned generation, achieving a 96% pose consistency rate; and (3) enabling large-scale 6D annotation via mixed reality rendering. The pipeline produces high-quality, aligned 3D meshes in under 3 minutes per object--a 5-20x speedup over traditional scanning. We generate over 1,000 instances for each of the 153 categories in the Omni6Dpose benchmark, culminating in 153,000 aligned meshes--a >40x increase in instances per category over previous aligned real-world datasets. Extensive evaluation demonstrates competitive zero-shot sim2real transfer on the NOCS 6D pose benchmark and superior robotic grasping performance in both simulation and real-world zero-shot transfer, where aligned meshes prove essential for success. We release the largest publicly available aligned 3D mesh dataset, largest category-level 6D pose dataset, grasping simulation environments, and open-source pipeline, providing a critical step toward foundation models for 3D understanding and enabling efficient, unlimited generation of task-specific 3D data from scratch.

Document generation has gained growing attention in the field of AI-driven content creation. In this work, we push its boundaries by introducing AnyDoc, a framework capable of handling multiple generation tasks across a wide spectrum of document categories, all represented in a unified HTML/CSS format. To overcome the limited coverage and scale of existing human-crafted document datasets, AnyDoc first establishes a scalable data synthesis pipeline to automatically generate documents in HTML/CSS form. This pipeline yields DocHTML, a large-scale dataset containing 265,206 document samples, while spanning 111 categories and 32 distinct styles. Additionally, all documents are equipped with comprehensive metadata, including design intentions, HTML/CSS source code, visual assets, and rendered screenshots. Building on the curated dataset, AnyDoc fine-tunes multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) to achieve three practical document generation tasks: intention-to-document, document derendering, and element-to-document. To address the content overflow issue observed during fine-tuning, AnyDoc further incorporates a height-aware reinforcement learning (HARL) post-training procedure. By defining a reward function based on the difference between predicted and target document heights, overflow is penalized and gradually mitigated during HARL, thereby enhancing overall performance. Qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrate that AnyDoc outperforms both general-purpose MLLMs and task-specific baselines across all three tasks.

We introduce FlexAvatar, a method for creating high-quality and complete 3D head avatars from a single image. A core challenge lies in the limited availability of multi-view data and the tendency of monocular training to yield incomplete 3D head reconstructions. We identify the root cause of this issue as the entanglement between driving signal and target viewpoint when learning from monocular videos. To address this, we propose a transformer-based 3D portrait animation model with learnable data source tokens, so-called bias sinks, which enables unified training across monocular and multi-view datasets. This design leverages the strengths of both data sources during inference: strong generalization from monocular data and full 3D completeness from multi-view supervision. Furthermore, our training procedure yields a smooth latent avatar space that facilitates identity interpolation and flexible fitting to an arbitrary number of input observations. In extensive evaluations on single-view, few-shot, and monocular avatar creation tasks, we verify the efficacy of FlexAvatar. Many existing methods struggle with view extrapolation while FlexAvatar generates complete 3D head avatars with realistic facial animations.

Federated Learning (FL) faces a fundamental dilemma: existing defenses against gradient leakage attacks (GLAs) invariably sacrifice model performance for privacy protection through noise injection or gradient clip. We introduce Federated Learning with Momentum-Based Orthogonal Projection (FedMOP), a method that simultaneously achieves strong privacy guarantees and superior model performance. The key insight is to leverage initialization-based offset mechanisms that operate on orthogonal dimensions. For performance enhancement, FedMOP employs gradient orthogonal projection to counteract local drift, effectively offsetting each client's round-training initial model using global statistical context. For privacy protection, it introduces momentum-based trajectory offset hiding, which makes the offset vector inherently unrecoverable by constructing information barriers through private initialization and randomized evolution. These two mechanisms are synergistic rather than antagonistic. Theoretically, we prove convergence preservation and characterize the computationally infeasible inverse problem faced by attackers. Extensive experiments on CIFAR-10/100 and Tiny-ImageNet demonstrate that FedMOP not only defends effectively against state-of-the-art GLAs but also surpasses existing FL methods in both accuracy and convergence speed, validating its ability to jointly enhance privacy and performance in FL. Codes are available at https://github.com/zyl123456aB/FedMOP.

3D echocardiography provides superior cardiac quantification to traditional 2D echocardiography, which suffers from geometric idealizations and imaging plane misalignment. However, despite its advantages, clinical adoption of 3D echo remains limited due to logistical and visualization challenges. We propose a novel framework that reconstructs the 3D shape of the left ventricle (LV) throughout the cardiac cycle from sparse 2D echocardiographic views routinely acquired in clinical practice, without the need for external hardware or manual tracking. Our method integrates EchoPOSE, a new deep network that automatically estimates the 6D pose (position and orientation) of LV segmentations, with a graph-harmonic algorithm for 3D shape reconstruction. EchoPOSE employs a transformer-based architecture that combines local image features with global multi-view context, and introduces a geometry-aware loss to ensure spatial consistency across intersecting imaging planes. Trained and evaluated on large-scale synthetic data derived from 3D echocardiography and validated on prospectively acquired clinical echocardiograms, EchoPOSE achieves 3.78 mm and 8.65^ \circ pose errors, yielding 87.5% Dice reconstruction accuracy, 1.44% ejection fraction (EF) error, and 3.03% volume error, surpassing alternative deep learning techniques and classical clinical approaches. Notably, the framework remains robust under suboptimal imaging alignment, suggesting that EchoPOSE can reduce the sonography skills required for transducer positioning and allow minimally trained clinicians to perform echo scans.

Establishing consistent correspondences across images is essential for 3D vision tasks such as structure-from-motion (SfM), yet most existing matchers operate in a pairwise manner, often producing fragmented and geometrically inconsistent tracks when their predictions are chained across views. We propose MV-RoMa, a multi-view dense matching model that jointly estimates dense correspondences from a source image to multiple co-visible targets. Specifically, we design an efficient model architecture which avoids high computational cost of full cross-attention for multi-view feature interaction: (i) multi-view encoder that leverages pair-wise matching results as a geometric prior, and (ii) multi-view matching refiner that refines correspondences using pixel-wise attention. Additionally, we propose a post-processing strategy that integrates our model's consistent multi-view correspondences as high-quality tracks for SfM. Across diverse and challenging benchmarks, MV-RoMa produces more reliable correspondences and substantially denser, more accurate 3D reconstructions than existing sparse and dense matching methods.

Multi-focus image fusion (MFIF) is a crucial technique in image processing, with a key challenge being the generation of decision maps with precise boundaries. However, traditional methods based on heuristic rules and deep learning methods with black-box networks are difficult to generate high-quality decision maps. To overcome this challenge, we introduce neurodynamics-driven coupled neural P (CNP) systems, which are biological neural computation models inspired by spiking mechanisms, to enhance the accuracy of decision maps. Specifically, we first conduct an in-depth analysis of the model's neurodynamics to identify the constraints between the network parameters and the input signals. This solid analysis avoids abnormal continuous firing of neurons and ensures the model accurately distinguishes between focused and unfocused regions, generating high-quality decision maps for MFIF. Based on this analysis, we propose a Neurodynamics-Driven CNP Fusion model (ND-CNPFuse) tailored for the challenging MFIF task. Unlike current ideas of decision map generation, ND-CNPFuse distinguishes between focused and unfocused regions by mapping the source image into interpretable spike matrices. By comparing the number of spikes, an accurate decision map can be generated directly without any post-processing. Extensive experimental results show that ND-CNPFuse achieves new state-of-the-art performance on four classical MFIF datasets, including Lytro, MFFW, MFI-WHU, and Real-MFF. The code is available at https://github.com/MorvanLi/ND-CNPFuse.
