Lifelong embodied navigation requires agents to accumulate, retain, and exploit spatial-semantic experience across tasks, enabling efficient exploration in novel environments and rapid goal reaching in familiar ones. While object-centric memory is interpretable, it depends on detection and reconstruction pipelines that limit robustness and scalability. We propose an image-centric memory framework that achieves long-term implicit memory via an efficient visual context compression module end-to-end coupled with a Qwen2.5-VL-based navigation policy. Built atop a ViT backbone with frozen DINOv3 features and lightweight PixelUnshuffle+Conv blocks, our visual tokenizer reduces native vision tokens by roughly 10-20x, representing each image with about 30 tokens and allowing the agent to maintain hundreds of historical frames within a single context. Experimental results on GOAT-Bench and HM3D-OVON show that our method achieves state-of-the-art navigation performance, improving exploration in unfamiliar environments and shortening paths in familiar ones. Ablation studies further reveal that moderate compression provides the best balance between efficiency and accuracy. These findings position compressed image-centric memory as a practical and scalable interface for lifelong embodied agents, enabling them to reason over long visual histories and navigate with human-inspired efficiency.

Video diffusion models have achieved remarkable generative performance, but their substantial computational and memory costs pose significant challenges for deployment, especially on consumer GPUs. As recent advances in attention optimization mitigate previous computational bottlenecks, linear layers now dominate both computational cost and inference memory. In this work, we focus on quantizing both weights and activations to 4 bits to accelerate these layers. Previous methods, such as SVDQuant, overlook the highly dynamic nature of activations across denoising timesteps, where outlier channels and magnitudes vary dramatically. However, video data inherently exhibits strong activation similarity among neighboring tokens in space and time, which we term spatiotemporal activation similarity, analogous to how video codecs exploit intra- and inter-frame redundancy. Leveraging this property, we introduce DeltaQuant, which partitions activations into local 3D spatiotemporal cubes and uses each cube's mean token as a \coretoken, quantizing only the small differences (delta tokens) to 4 bits while keeping core tokens in FP8. This decomposition substantially reduces quantization error with minimal overhead.For weight quantization, DeltaQuant incorporates SVDQuant's low-rank decomposition to further reduce quantization error.We also implement an efficient kernel that translates DeltaQuant's computational benefits into real-world speedups.Extensive experiments on Wan 2.2 I2V, Wan 2.2 T2V, and LTX-Video T2V demonstrate that DeltaQuant maintains high generation fidelity.On Wan 2.2, it compresses model size by 2.9x and reduces memory footprint by 2.3x. DeltaQuant is compatible with efficient attention mechanisms and few-step distillation. When integrated with these techniques, it achieves an additional 3.0x acceleration, for a total 111.8x end-to-end speedup. Code and models will be released upon publication.

Recent progress in deep learning has been driven by increasingly large-scale models, but the resulting computational cost has become a critical bottleneck. Sparse Mixture of Experts (MoE) offers an effective solution by activating only a small subset of experts for each input, achieving high scalability without sacrificing inference speed. Although effective, sparse MoE training exhibits characteristic optimization difficulties. Because the router receives informative gradients only through the experts selected in the forward pass, it suffers from gradient blocking and obtains little information from unselected routes. This limited, highly localized feedback makes it difficult for the router to learn appropriate expert-selection scores and often leads to unstable routing dynamics, such as fluctuating expert assignments during training. To address this issue, we propose TGR-MoE: Teacher-Guided Routing for Sparse Vision Mixture-of-Experts, a simple yet effective method that stabilizes router learning using supervision derived from a pretrained dense teacher model. TGR-MoE constructs a teacher router from the teacher's intermediate representations and uses its routing outputs as pseudo-supervision for the student router, suppressing frequent routing fluctuations during training and enabling knowledge-guided expert selection from the early stages of training. Extensive experiments on ImageNet-1K and CIFAR-100 demonstrate that TGR consistently improves both accuracy and routing consistency, while maintaining stable training even under highly sparse configurations.

Estimating camera geometry typically involves solving minimal problems formulated as systems of multivariate polynomial equations, which often pose computational challenges when using existing Grobner-basis or resultant-based methods due to matrix inversion needed in the online solver. Here we propose a sampling-based, matrix inversion-free method that constructs the solvers using sparse hidden-variable resultants. The determinant polynomial in the hidden variable is efficiently reconstructed via inverse fast Fourier transform interpolation from sampled evaluations, avoiding symbolic expansion. Solving this polynomial yields the hidden variable, and the remaining unknowns are recovered by identifying rank-1 deficient submatrices and applying Cramer's rule. A greatest common divisor-based criterion ensures robust submatrix identification under noise. Experiments on diverse minimal problems demonstrate that the proposed solver achieves strong numerical stability and competitive runtime, particularly for small-scale problems, providing a practical alternative to traditional Grobner-basis and resultant-based solvers.

In the progress of industrial anomaly detection, general anomaly detection (GAD) is an emerging trend and also the ultimate goal. Unlike the conventional single- and multi-class AD, general AD aims to train a general AD model that can directly detect anomalies in diverse novel classes without any retraining or fine-tuning on the target data. Recently, Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown great promise in achieving general anomaly detection due to their revolutionary visual understanding and language reasoning capabilities. However, MLLM's general AD ability remains underexplored due to: (1) MLLMs are pretrained on amounts of data sourced from the Web, these data still have significant gaps with the data in AD scenarios. Moreover, the image-text pairs during pretraining are also not specifically for AD tasks. (2) The current mainstream AD datasets are image-based and not yet suitable for post-training MLLMs. To facilitate MLLM-based general AD research, we present MMR-AD, which is a comprehensive benchmark for both training and evaluating MLLM-based AD models. With MMR-AD, we reveal that the AD performance of current SOTA generalist MLLMs still falls far behind the industrial requirements. Based on MMR-AD, we also propose a baseline model, Anomaly-R1, which is a reasoning-based AD model that learns from the CoT data in MMR-AD and is further enhanced by reinforcement learning. Extensive experiments show that our Anomaly-R1 achieves remarkable improvements over generalist MLLMs in both anomaly detection and localization.

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) suffer from cross-modal hallucinations, where one modality inappropriately influences generation about another, leading to fabricated output. This exposes a more fundamental deficiency in modality-interaction control. To address this, we propose Modality-Adaptive Decoding (MAD), a training-free method that adaptively weights modality-specific decoding branches based on task requirements. MAD leverages the model's inherent ability to self-assess modality relevance by querying which modalities are needed for each task. The extracted modality probabilities are then used to adaptively weight contrastive decoding branches, enabling the model to focus on relevant information while suppressing cross-modal interference. Extensive experiments on CMM and AVHBench demonstrate that MAD significantly reduces cross-modal hallucinations across multiple audio-visual language models (7.8% and 2.0% improvements for VideoLLaMA2-AV, 8.7% and 4.7% improvements for Qwen2.5-Omni). Our approach demonstrates that explicit modality awareness through self-assessment is crucial for robust multimodal reasoning, offering a principled extension to existing contrastive decoding methods.

Latent diffusion models such as Stable Diffusion 1.5 offer strong generative priors that are highly valuable for image restoration, yet their full pipelines remain too computationally heavy for deployment on edge devices. Existing lightweight variants predominantly compress the denoising U-Net or reduce the diffusion trajectory, which disrupts the underlying latent manifold and limits generalization beyond a single task. We introduce NanoSD, a family of Pareto-optimal diffusion foundation models distilled from Stable Diffusion 1.5 through network surgery, feature-wise generative distillation, and structured architectural scaling jointly applied to the U-Net and the VAE encoder-decoder. This full-pipeline co-design preserves the generative prior while producing models that occupy distinct operating points along the accuracy-latency-size frontier (e.g., 130M-315M parameters, achieving real-time inference down to 20ms on mobile-class NPUs). We show that parameter reduction alone does not correlate with hardware efficiency, and we provide an analysis revealing how architectural balance, feature routing, and latent-space preservation jointly shape true on-device latency. When used as a drop-in backbone, NanoSD enables state-of-the-art performance across image super-resolution, image deblurring, face restoration, and monocular depth estimation, outperforming prior lightweight diffusion models in both perceptual quality and practical deployability. NanoSD establishes a general-purpose diffusion foundation model family suitable for real-time visual generation and restoration on edge devices.

Inspired by the general Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) task, aerial VLN has attracted widespread attention, owing to its significant practical value in applications such as logistics delivery and urban inspection. However, existing methods face several challenges in complex urban environments, including insufficient generalization to unseen scenes, suboptimal performance in long-range path planning, and inadequate understanding of spatial continuity. To address these challenges, we propose HTNav, a new collaborative navigation framework that integrates Imitation Learning (IL) and Reinforcement Learning (RL) within a hybrid IL-RL framework. This framework adopts a staged training mechanism to ensure the stability of the basic navigation strategy while enhancing its environmental exploration capability. By integrating a tiered decision-making mechanism, it achieves collaborative interaction between macro-level path planning and fine-grained action control. Furthermore, a map representation learning module is introduced to deepen its understanding of spatial continuity in open domains. On the CityNav benchmark, our method achieves state-of-the-art performance across all scene levels and task difficulties. Experimental results demonstrate that this framework significantly improves navigation precision and robustness in complex urban environments.

With the rapid development of Vision-Language Models (VLMs), there is a growing demand for automatic analysis of structured visual data. Charts and tables carry quantitative information through regular layouts, explicit numbers, and chart-specific reading patterns, yet current VLMs still underuse these properties, often causing value errors and unreliable analysis. To overcome these limitations, we propose Twin-T, a two-stage expert VLM for comprehensive chart-table tasks across Image, LaTeX, and Python. In stage 1, we propose a dual-head image encoder that can separate structural cues and fine details from input images. In stage 2, we propose MINT, a preference learning method that emphasizes numerical and keyword fidelity, as well as vision-text matching. Furthermore, we introduce a comprehensive TwintVQA benchmark with 17 chart types, 11 task types, 3 data formats, and short / medium / long QA settings. Our model narrows the gap between open-source and closed-source models on mainstream chart-table benchmarks, outperforming open-source models while even remaining competitive with GPT-4o and Gemini-2.5-Pro.

Generative AI models pose a significant challenge to intellectual property (IP), as they can replicate unique artistic styles and concepts without attribution. While watermarking offers a potential solution, existing methods often fail in complex scenarios where multiple concepts (e.g., an object and an artistic style) are composed within a single image. These methods struggle to disentangle and attribute each concept individually. In this work, we introduce TokenTrace, a novel proactive watermarking framework for robust, multi-concept attribution. Our method embeds secret signatures into the semantic domain by simultaneously perturbing the text prompt embedding and the initial latent noise that guide the diffusion model's generation process. For retrieval, we propose a query-based TokenTrace module that takes the generated image and a textual query specifying which concepts need to be retrieved (e.g., a specific object or style) as inputs. This query-based mechanism allows the module to disentangle and independently verify the presence of multiple concepts from a single generated image. Extensive experiments show that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on both single-concept (object and style) and multi-concept attribution tasks, significantly outperforming existing baselines while maintaining high visual quality and robustness to common transformations.

Whole-Slide Images (WSIs) are widely used for estimating the prognosis of cancer patients. Current studies generally follow a cancer-specific learning paradigm. However, the available training samples for one cancer type are usually scarce in pathology. Consequently, the model often struggles to learn generalizable knowledge, thus performing worse on the tumor samples with inherent high heterogeneity. Although multi-cancer joint learning and knowledge transfer approaches have been explored recently to address it, they either rely on large-scale joint training or extensive inference across multiple models, posing new challenges in computational efficiency. To this end, this paper proposes a new scheme, Sparse Task Vector Mixup with Hypernetworks (STEPH). Unlike previous ones, it efficiently absorbs generalizable knowledge from other cancers for the target via model merging: i) applying task vector mixup to each source-target pair and then ii) sparsely aggregating task vector mixtures to obtain an improved target model, driven by hypernetworks. Extensive experiments on 13 cancer datasets show that STEPH improves over cancer-specific learning and an existing knowledge transfer baseline by 5.14% and 2.01%, respectively. Moreover, it is a more efficient solution for learning prognostic knowledge from other cancers, without requiring large-scale joint training or extensive multi-model inference.

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) has emerged as an effective approach to reduce the computational overhead of Transformer architectures by sparsely activating a subset of parameters for each token while preserving high model capacity. This paradigm has recently been extended to Vision-Language Models (VLMs), enabling scalable multi-modal understanding with reduced computational cost. However, the widely adopted deterministic top-K routing mechanism may overlook more optimal expert combinations and lead to expert overfitting. To address this limitation and improve the diversity of expert selection, we propose MoE-GRPO, a reinforcement learning (RL)-based framework for optimizing expert routing in MoE-based VLMs. Specifically, we formulate expert selection as a sequential decision-making problem and optimize it using Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), allowing the model to learn adaptive expert routing policies through exploration and reward-based feedback. Furthermore, we introduce a modality-aware router guidance that enhances training stability and efficiency by discouraging the router from exploring experts that are infrequently activated for a given modality. Extensive experiments on multi-modal image and video benchmarks show that MoE-GRPO consistently outperforms standard top-K routing and its variants by promoting more diverse expert selection, thereby mitigating expert overfitting and enabling a task-level expert specialization.

We present DrivoR, a simple transformer-based architecture for end-to-end autonomous driving. Our approach builds on pretrained Vision Transformers (ViTs) and introduces camera-aware register tokens that compress multi-camera features into a compact scene representation, significantly reducing downstream computation without sacrificing accuracy. These tokens drive two lightweight transformer decoders that generate and then score candidate trajectories. The scoring decoder learns to mimic an oracle and predicts interpretable sub-scores e.g., safety or efficiency, enabling behavior-conditioned driving at inference. Despite its minimal design, DrivoR outperforms or matches strong baselines across NAVSIM-v1/v2, and closed-loop HUGSIM benchmarks. Our results show that a pure-transformer architecture, combined with targeted token compression, is sufficient for accurate, efficient, and adaptive end-to-end driving. Code and checkpoints are available via the project page.

Open-set active learning (OSAL) aims to identify informative samples for annotation when unlabeled data may contain previously unseen classes--a common challenge in safety-critical and open-world scenarios. Existing approaches typically rely on separately trained open-set detectors, introducing substantial training overhead and overlooking the supervisory value of labeled unknowns for improving known-class learning. In this paper, we propose E^2OAL (Effective and Efficient Open-set Active Learning), a unified and detector-free framework that fully exploits labeled unknowns for both stronger supervision and more reliable querying. E^2OAL first uncovers the latent class structure of unknowns through label-guided clustering in a frozen contrastively pre-trained feature space, optimized by a structure-aware F1-product objective. To leverage labeled unknowns, it employs a Dirichlet-calibrated auxiliary head that jointly models known and unknown categories, improving both confidence calibration and known-class discrimination. Building on this, a logit-margin purity score estimates the likelihood of known classes to construct a high-purity candidate pool, while an OSAL-specific informativeness metric prioritizes partially ambiguous yet reliable samples. These components together form a flexible two-stage query strategy with adaptive precision control and minimal hyperparameter sensitivity. Extensive experiments across multiple OSAL benchmarks demonstrate that E^2OAL consistently surpasses state-of-the-art methods in accuracy, efficiency, and query precision, highlighting its effectiveness and practicality for real-world applications. The code is available at github.com/chenchenzong/E2OAL.

The expansion of Transformers and the collection of high-quality multimodal datasets have propelled deep neural networks to achieve unprecedented performance in vision and language tasks. However, applying these advances is non-trivial in real-world applications. The extensive number of parameters complicates model updates, and real-world data often features a long-tailed distribution along with noisy labels. To address the above issues, we propose to explore the internal structure of the neural network for learning with sample relationships, rather than just increasing the number of model parameters. Specifically, we introduce RetFormer, a model enhanced with a multimodal knowledge base for storing world knowledge, and a retrieval cross-fusion module designed to establish robust multimodal sample relationships by leveraging content from the knowledge base. RetFormer establishes a robust relationship between image and text modalities by integrating information from external knowledge bases into the model's decision-making process, thus overcoming the limitations of traditional approaches on model size and datasets. Our experiments demonstrate the benefits of integrating large-scale image-text datasets into vision tasks and exemplify the importance of modeling the relationship between image and text modalities. We have evaluated our approach on the task of long-tailed recognition and learning with noisy labels and have shown that it achieves state-of-the-art accuracies.

Reliable UAV object detection requires robustness to illumination changes, motion blur, and scene dynamics that suppress RGB cues. Thermal long-wave infrared (LWIR) sensing preserves contrast in low light, and event cameras retain microsecond-level temporal edges, but integrating all three modalities in a unified detector has not been systematically studied. We present a tri-modal framework that processes RGB, thermal, and event data with a dual-stream hierarchical vision transformer. At selected encoder depths, a Modality-Aware Gated Exchange (MAGE) applies inter-sensor channel and spatial gating, and a Bidirectional Token Exchange (BiTE) module performs bidirectional token-level attention with depthwise-pointwise refinement, producing resolution-preserving fused maps for a standard feature pyramid and two-stage detector. We introduce a 10,489-frame UAV dataset with synchronized and pre-aligned RGB-thermal-event streams and 24,223 annotated vehicles across day and night flights. Through 61 controlled ablations, we evaluate fusion placement, mechanism (baseline MAGE+BiTE, CSSA, GAFF), modality subsets, and backbone capacity. Tri-modal fusion improves over all dual-modal baselines, with fusion depth having a significant effect and a lightweight CSSA variant recovering most of the benefit at minimal cost. This work provides the first systematic benchmark and modular backbone for tri-modal UAV-based object detection.

We present FunREC, a method for reconstructing functional 3D digital twins of indoor scenes directly from egocentric RGB-D interaction videos. Unlike existing methods on articulated reconstruction, which rely on controlled setups, multi-state captures, or CAD priors, FunREC operates directly on in-the-wild human interaction sequences to recover interactable 3D scenes. It automatically discovers articulated parts, estimates their kinematic parameters, tracks their 3D motion, and reconstructs static and moving geometry in canonical space, yielding simulation-compatible meshes. Across new real and simulated benchmarks, FunREC surpasses prior work by a large margin, achieving up to +50 mIoU improvement in part segmentation, 5-10x lower articulation and pose errors, and significantly higher reconstruction accuracy. We further demonstrate applications on URDF/USD export for simulation, hand-guided affordance mapping and robot-scene interaction. Our project page is: functionalscenes.github.io.

Diffeomorphic image registration (DIR) seeks topology-preserving transformations and is fundamental in medical imaging. Existing DIR methods rely on integration schemes (e.g., scaling-and-squaring) and multiple regularizers to enforce invertibility. We introduce **SGDIR**, a continuous-time registration framework, parameterized by known time-embedded backbones, that models diffeomorphisms using only a single semigroup-based regularization, eliminating explicit integration and auxiliary constraints. We mathematically prove that this formulation directly learns the flow of an underlying ODE, inherently enforcing inverse and cycle consistencies. We evaluate on eight 2D and 3D MR and CT datasets. Under strict semigroup enforcement, our model achieves near-perfect diffeomorphism and significantly outperforms existing diffeomorphic methods, while remaining competitive with leading non-diffeomorphic deformable models. When the regularization is relaxed, the same architecture functions as a deformable method and substantially surpasses state-of-the-art non-diffeomorphic approaches in registration accuracy. These results demonstrate that continuous-time deformation modeling, guided solely by our semigroup-based regularization, yields a unified framework capable of both rigorously diffeomorphic mapping and state-of-the-art deformable registration.

Vision-Language Model (VLM) is now an important component to enable robust robot manipulation. Yet, using it to translate human instructions into an action-resolvable intermediate representation often needs a tradeoff between VLM-comprehensibility and generalizability. Inspired by context-free grammar structure, we design the Semantic Assembly representation named SEAM, by decomposing the intermediate representation into vocabulary and grammar. Doing so leads us to a concise vocabulary of semantically-rich operations and a VLM-friendly grammar for handling diverse unseen tasks. Also, we design a novel open-vocabulary segmentation paradigm with an in-context learning strategy to precisely localize fine-grained object parts for manipulation (e.g., cup handle, teapot opening) effectively with the shortest inference time over all state-of-the-art parallel works. We then formulate new metrics for action-generalizability and VLM-comprehensibility to evaluate mainstream representations, demonstrating the strong performance of SEAM on both aspects. Extensive real-world experiments further manifest the SOTA performance of SEAM under varying settings and tasks.
