Inverse tone mapping (ITM) becomes significantly harder when the SDR input is produced by local tone mapping, which jointly applies global radiometric compression and spatially varying adaptations that distort dynamic range, contrast, and channel-wise color ratios. Existing ITM methods ignore this degradation structure and either regress HDR values directly or rely on a single-channel gain map, which scale luminance only and cannot restore the compressed dynamic range and wide color gamut.We introduce FastGaMer, a structured and resolution-agnostic ITM framework that explicitly mirrors this degradation process. Instead of regressing HDR values, we reconstruct a color gain map, which preserves per-channel amplification, simplifies learning, and enables proper gamut extension. Local and global degradations are inverted separately using dynamic bilateral grids and learnable 3D LUTs, followed by a lightweight neural modulator for global refinement and coherence. All high-resolution operations are network-free, yielding exceptional efficiency.To support color-GM supervision under realistic local TMO degradations, we create a dataset of over 8,000 4K SDR-GM pairs with an additional real-captured test set. FastGaMer outperforms prior lightweight ITM methods by +1.4 dB PQ-PSNR, reduces runtime by 70%, and processes 4K images in only 6.2 ms, achieving both high accuracy and real-time performance.

Humans rarely plan whole-body interactions with objects at the level of explicit whole-body movements. High-level intentions, such as affordance, define the goal, while coordinated balance, contact, and manipulation can emerge naturally from underlying physical and motor priors. Scaling such priors is key to enabling humanoids to compose and generalize loco-manipulation skills across diverse contexts while maintaining physically coherent whole-body coordination. To this end, we introduce InterPrior, a scalable framework that learns a unified generative controller through large-scale imitation pretraining and post-training by reinforcement learning. InterPrior first distills a full-reference imitation expert into a versatile, goal-conditioned variational policy that reconstructs motion from multimodal observations and high-level intent. While the distilled policy reconstructs training behaviors, it does not generalize reliably due to the vast configuration space of large-scale human-object interactions. To address this, we apply data augmentation with physical perturbations, and then perform reinforcement learning finetuning to improve competence on unseen goals and initializations. Together, these steps consolidate the reconstructed latent skills into a valid manifold, yielding a motion prior that generalizes beyond the training data, e.g., it can incorporate new behaviors such as interactions with unseen objects. We further demonstrate its effectiveness for user-interactive control and its potential for real robot deployment.

Current approaches to zero-shot 3D-object perception typically rely on ensembles of frozen foundation models. This limits deep object understanding and cross-domain generalization, making performance inadequate for real-world deployment. The 3D-Object Perception Transformer (3PT) addresses this limitation by unifying detection, segmentation, and 6DoF pose estimation in a single framework, directly trained for 3D-object perception. Based on two large-scale trained transformers that specialize in 2D and 3D object-centric scene understanding respectively, 3PT continuously refines its object representations without depth input, enhancing 3D understanding by incorporating multi-view information. 3PT is the state-of-the-art for detection and pose estimation on the BOP benchmarks, often achieving double digit improvements, in many cases, outperforming non-zero-shot methods, and winning 7 of 11 tracks in the BOP-2025 challenge. 3PT surpasses task-specialized models for detection and pose estimation, often achieving double-digit percentage improvements on the diverse BOP-benchmarks, and in some cases outperforming non zero-shot methods. It also ranked first in 7 of 11 tracks at the BOP Challenge 2025. 3PT's high-accuracy and reliability is well-suited for practical industrial robotics applications such as bin picking and precise insertion.

Precise 3D medical image segmentation is a clinical cornerstone for diagnosis, therapy planning, and longitudinal monitoring. However, routine acquisition with anisotropic voxel spacing and heterogeneous reconstruction induces downsampling aliasing and cross-scale misalignment that blur boundaries, fragment topology, and undermine reliability. Existing U-shaped CNN or Transformer designs neither control alias injection at decimation nor explicitly align high-resolution evidence before decoder fusion, leading to unstable interfaces under device and protocol variability. We introduce the Coset-fibRated micrO-local co-attention Network (CROWn), a general segmentation framework that couples sampling theory with representation learning to jointly suppress aliasing and calibrate cross-scale fusion. CROWn comprises two complementary components. The Microlocal Polyphase Co-Attentive Decimator (\muPCAD) performs axis-aware polyphase analysis with pooled-subband co-attention and explicit anti-alias low-pass, routing boundary-relevant high-frequency evidence while attenuating spurious phase components during downsampling. The Octaphase Coset Fibration (OCF) anti-aliases high-resolution skips, restructures them via 3D space-to-depth into cosets, and applies phase attention with edge-gated modulation to deliver compact, phase-aligned, boundary-aware features to the decoder. Extensive evaluations across 15 publicly available datasets spanning CT, MRI, and OCT demonstrate CROWn's state-of-the-art performance against 17 recent leading methods, improves overlap and topological consistency, consistently reduces boundary errors, while maintaining controlled training and inference cost. The code is publicly available at https://github.com/IMOP-lab/CROWn.

While the most fundamental pretraining paradigm typically trains modality-specific models on their respective datasets, the Platonic Representation Hypothesis that representations eventually align across modalities as data and model scale suggests an intriguing possibility: large language models (LLMs) could be pretrained on visual corpora to reach parity with text-pretrained models, thereby expanding data sources to break the text-scaling bottlenecks, and leveraging richer visual cues for more comprehensive corpus understanding. This paper makes the first attempt to demonstrate the feasibility of this implication by introducing Masked Autoregressive Pretraining for Learning language intelligencE (MAPLE), a novel visual pretraining paradigm for LLMs that leverages raw document images to improve language intelligence. MAPLE is universal to integrate masked auto-regressive models with various LLM backbones, where the LLMs are incentivized to generate latent hypotheses for the masked regions based on the unmasked regions. We verify MAPLE in the domain of math reasoning with multiple LLM backbones and show that MAPLE consistently surpasses text-only pretraining relatively by at most 40.2% on average accuracy across four math reasoning benchmarks. Further analyses show that visually pretrained LLMs learn a shared latent space that aligns document visuals with text and exploits layout and structural cues, supporting visual pretraining as a feasible and scalable route to stronger language models.

This paper tackles the challenge of recovering 4D dynamic scenes from videos captured by as few as four portable cameras. Learning to model scene dynamics for temporally consistent novel-view rendering is a foundational task in computer graphics, where previous works often require dense multi-view captures using camera arrays of dozens or even hundreds of views. We propose 4C4D, a novel framework that enables high-fidelity 4D Gaussian Splatting from video captures of extremely sparse cameras. Our key insight lies that the geometric learning under sparse settings is substantially more difficult than modeling appearance. Driven by this observation, we introduce a Neural Decaying Function on Gaussian opacities for enhancing the geometric modeling capability of 4D Gaussians. This design mitigates the inherent imbalance between geometry and appearance modeling in 4DGS by encouraging the 4DGS gradients to focus more on geometric learning. Extensive experiments across sparse-view datasets with varying camera overlaps show that 4C4D achieves superior performance over prior art.

Recent photo-realistic 3D talking head via 3D Gaussian Splatting still has significant shortcoming in emotional expression manipulation, especially for fine-grained and expansive dynamics emotional editing using multi-modal control. This paper introduces a new editable 3D Gaussian talking head, i.e. EmoDiffTalk. Our key idea is a novel Emotion-aware Gaussian Diffusion, which includes an action unit (AU) prompt Gaussian diffusion process for fine-grained facial animator, and moreover an accurate text-to-AU emotion controller to provide accurate and expansive dynamic emotional editing using text input. Experiments on public EmoTalk3D and RenderMe-360 datasets demonstrate superior emotional subtlety, lip-sync fidelity, and controllability of our EmoDiffTalk over previous works, establishing a principled pathway toward high-quality, diffusion-driven, multimodal editable 3D talking-head synthesis. To our best knowledge, our EmoDiffTalk is one of the first few 3D Gaussian Splatting talking-head generation framework, especially supporting continuous, multimodal emotional editing within the AU-based expression space.Please visit our website for more details and information:https://liuchang883.github.io/EmoDiffTalk/

Visual counterfactual explanations aim to reveal the minimal semantic modifications that can alter a model's prediction, providing causal and interpretable insights into deep neural networks. However, existing diffusion-based counterfactual generation methods are often computationally expensive, slow to sample, and imprecise in localizing the modified regions. To address these limitations, we propose MaskDiME, a simple, fast, yet effective diffusion framework that unifies semantic consistency and spatial precision through localized sampling. Our approach adaptively focuses on decision-relevant regions to achieve localized and semantically consistent counterfactual generation while preserving high image fidelity. Our training-free framework, MaskDiME, performs inference over 30x faster than the baseline and achieves comparable or state-of-the-art performance across five benchmark datasets spanning diverse visual domains, establishing a practical and generalizable solution for efficient counterfactual explanation. Our code is available at https://github.com/clguo/MaskDiME.

Recent years have witnessed remarkable progress in world models, which primarily aim to capture the spatiotemporal correlations between an agent's actions and the evolving environment. However, existing approaches often suffer from tight runtime coupling or depend on offline reward signals, resulting in substantial inference overhead or hindering end-to-end optimization. To overcome these limitations, we introduce WPT, a World-to-Policy Transfer training paradigm that enables online distillation under the guidance of an end-to-end world model. Specifically, we develop a trainable reward model that infuses world knowledge into a teacher policy by aligning candidate trajectories with the future dynamics predicted by the world model. Subsequently, we propose policy distillation and world reward distillation to transfer the teacher's reasoning ability into a lightweight student policy, enhancing planning performance while preserving real-time deployability. Extensive experiments on both open-loop and closed-loop benchmarks show that WPT achieves state-of-the-art performance with a simple policy architecture: it attains a 0.11 collision rate (open-loop) and achieves a 79.23 driving score (closed-loop), surpassing both world-model-based and imitation-learning methods in accuracy and safety. Moreover, the student sustains up to 4.9xfaster inference, while retaining most of the gains.

Normalizing Flows (NFs) have been established as a principled framework for generative modeling. Standard NFs consist of a forward process and a reverse process: the forward process maps data to noise, while the reverse process generates samples by inverting it. Typical NF forward transformations are constrained by explicit invertibility, ensuring that the reverse process can serve as their exact analytic inverse. Recent developments in TARFlow and its variants have revitalized NF methods by combining Transformers and autoregressive flows, but have also exposed causal decoding as a major bottleneck. In this work, we introduce Bidirectional Normalizing Flow (BiFlow), a framework that removes the need for an exact analytic inverse. BiFlow learns a reverse model that approximates the underlying noise-to-data inverse mapping, enabling more flexible loss functions and architectures. Experiments on ImageNet demonstrate that BiFlow, compared to its causal decoding counterpart, improves generation quality while accelerating sampling by up to two orders of magnitude. BiFlow yields state-of-the-art results among NF-based methods and competitive performance among single-evaluation ("1-NFE") methods. Following recent encouraging progress on NFs, we hope our work will draw further attention to this classical paradigm.

Despite remarkable advancements in multimodal large language models (MLLMs), their fine-grained visual understanding is constrained by a primary reliance on sparse textual supervision. Existing efforts to introduce visual supervision typically do so during post-training, when visual representations have already been largely fixed, causing such signals to act mainly as auxiliary constraints rather than as a primary force for shaping perceptual features. In this paper, we aim to fundamentally reshape the model's perceptual backbone by incorporating vision supervision directly into the pre-training stage. We observe that pixel-level image patches and textual tokens naturally coexist in a shared, raw high-dimensional space characterized by an inherent input symmetry. Leveraging this insight, we propose UVU, a novel vision-language unified autoregressive framework that eschews vector quantization. It uniquely employs continuous visual encoding for lossless representation of visual inputs and proposes a large-scale iterative hierarchical clustering algorithm to construct a pixel-level visual codebook, thereby extending the vocabulary for unified supervision and enabling autoregressive generation of pixel-level image tokens alongside textual tokens. UVU effectively synergizes pixel-level visual perception with semantic-level visual understanding, internalizing visual reconstruction capabilities and unlocking the facilitative role of visual supervision in enhancing understanding in the pre-training stage. Extensive experiments across multiple tasks demonstrate that MLLMs are capable of achieving superior multimodal understanding performance under the supervised learning paradigm of UVU.

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) often over-rely on linguistic priors even when images are provided, leading to object hallucinations. We revisit object-wise hallucination from the perspective of how visual evidence shapes the model's uncertainty. For each input, we measure decision uncertainty with and without the image, and define a Visual Evidence Sensitivity (VES) signal as the image-attributable change in entropy. Building on this signal, we introduce Visual Evidence Sensitivity Reinforcement Fine-Tuning (VES-RFT), a training-time reinforcement fine-tuning method that explicitly rewards reliance on correct visual evidence. We pair this continuous, annotation-free signal with a verifiable reward that enforces factual object correctness by automatically checking generated object mentions against the image, yielding a computable objective without human annotations. We optimize the dual objective using critic-free GRPO with KL regularization, requiring only parallel image and no-image passes during training while preserving single-pass inference. Across multiple VLM families and benchmarks, VES-RFT consistently suppresses object hallucinations and improves robustness under ambiguity. Specifically, on LLaVA-7B, VES-RFT reduces 12.8 and 1.8 on CHAIR_S/CHAIR_I of MS-COCO, and increases POPE accuracy by 4.92%. Extensive experiments indicate that turning uncertainty into a learnable reward, paired with verifiable correctness signals, provides a scalable mechanism for training-time hallucination mitigation and stronger visual grounding.

Image quality assessment (IQA) and image restoration are fundamental problems in low-level vision. Although IQA and restoration are closely connected conceptually, most existing work treats them in isolation. Recent advances in unified multimodal understanding-generation models demonstrate promising results and indicate that stronger understanding can improve generative performance. This motivates a single model that unifies IQA and restoration and explicitly studies how IQA can guide restoration, a setting that remains largely underexplored yet highly valuable. In this paper, we propose UARE, to our knowledge the first Unified vision-language model for image quality Assessment, Restoration, and Enhancement. Built on pretrained unified understanding and generation models, we introduce a two-stage training framework. First, a progressive, easy-to-hard schedule expands from single-type distortions to higher-order mixed degradations, enabling UARE to handle multiple degradations. Second, we perform unified fine-tuning of quality understanding and restoration with interleaved text-image data, aligning IQA signals with restoration objectives. Through multi-task co-training, UARE leverages IQA to boost restoration and enhancement performance. Extensive experiments across IQA, restoration, and enhancement tasks demonstrate the effectiveness of UARE. The code and models will be made available.

Multimodal Continual Instruction Tuning aims to continually enhance Large Vision Language Models (LVLMs) by learning from new data without forgetting previously acquired knowledge. Mixture of Experts (MoE) architectures naturally facilitate this by incrementally adding new experts and expanding routers while keeping the existing ones frozen. However, despite expert isolation, MoE-based continual learners still suffer from forgetting due to routing-drift: old-task tokens become mistakenly attracted to newly added experts, degrading performance on prior tasks. We analyze the failure mode at the token level and reveal the token's dilemma: ambiguous and old tokens in new-task data offer minimal learning benefit yet induce forgetting when routed to new experts, due to their ambiguous routing assignment during training. Motivated by this, we propose LLaVA-DyMoE, a dynamic MoE framework that incrementally expands the MoE with drift-aware token assignment. We characterize token types via their routing score distributions and apply targeted regularization. Specifically, a token-level assignment guidance steers ambiguous and old tokens away from new experts to preserve established routing patterns and alleviate routing-drift, while complementary routing score regularizations enforce expert-group separation and promote new-expert specialization. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our LLaVA-DyMoE effectively mitigates routing-drift-induced forgetting, achieving over a 7% gain in mean final accuracy and a 12% reduction in forgetting compared to baselines.

Achieving unified 3D perception and reasoning across tasks such as segmentation, retrieval, and relation understanding remains challenging, as existing methods are either object-centric or rely on costly training for inter-object reasoning. We present a novel framework that constructs a hierarchical language-distilled Gaussian scene and its 3D semantic scene graph without scene-specific training. A Gaussian pruning mechanism refines scene geometry, while a robust multi-view language alignment strategy aggregates noisy 2D features into accurate 3D object embeddings. On top of this hierarchy, we build an open-vocabulary 3D scene graph with Vision Language-derived annotations and Graph Neural Network-based relational reasoning. Our approach enables efficient and scalable open-vocabulary 3D reasoning by jointly modeling hierarchical semantics and inter/intra-object relationships, validated across tasks including open-vocabulary segmentation, scene graph generation, and relation-guided retrieval.

Reinforcement learning (RL) has recently achieved remarkable success in eliciting visual reasoning within Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs). However, existing approaches typically train separate models for different tasks and treat image and video reasoning as disjoint domains. This results in limited scalability toward a multimodal reasoning generalist, which restricts practical versatility and hinders potential knowledge sharing across tasks and modalities.To this end, we propose OneThinker, an all-in-one reasoning model that unifies image and video understanding across diverse fundamental visual tasks, including question answering, captioning, spatial and temporal grounding, tracking, and segmentation. To achieve this, we construct the OneThinker-600k training corpus covering all these tasks and employ commercial models for CoT annotation, resulting in OneThinker-SFT-340k for SFT cold start.Moreover, we propose EMA-GRPO to handle reward heterogeneity in multi-task RL by tracking task-wise moving averages of reward standard deviations for balanced optimization. Extensive experiments on diverse visual benchmarks show that OneThinker delivers strong performance on 31 benchmarks, across 10 fundamental visual understanding tasks.Moreover, it exhibits effective knowledge transfer between certain tasks and preliminary zero-shot generalization ability, marking a step toward a unified multimodal reasoning generalist. All code, model, and data are released.

Existing depth estimation methods are fundamentally limited to predicting depth on discrete image grids. Such representations restrict their scalability to arbitrary output resolutions and hinder the geometric detail recovery. This paper introduces InfiniDepth, which represents depth as neural implicit fields. Through a simple yet effective local implicit decoder, we can query depth at continuous 2D coordinates, enabling arbitrary-resolution and fine-grained depth estimation. To better assess our method's capabilities, we curate a high-quality 4K synthetic benchmark from five different games, spanning diverse scenes with rich geometric and appearance details. Extensive experiments demonstrate that InfiniDepth achieves state-of-the-art performance on both synthetic and real-world benchmarks across relative and metric depth estimation tasks, particularly excelling in fine-detail regions. It also benefits the task of novel view synthesis under large viewpoint shifts, producing high-quality results with fewer holes and artifacts. Code and data will be made publicly available.

Large multimodal models (LMMs) are increasingly adopted as judges in multimodal evaluation systems due to their strong instruction following and consistency with human preferences. However, their ability to follow diverse, fine-grained evaluation criteria remains underexplored. We develop Multi-Crit, a benchmark for evaluating multimodal judges on their capacity to follow pluralistic criteria and produce reliable criterion-level judgments. Covering both open-ended generation and verifiable reasoning tasks, Multi-Crit is built through a rigorous data curation pipeline that gathers challenging response pairs with multi-criterion human annotations. It further introduces three novel metrics for systematically assessing pluralistic adherence, criterion-switching flexibility, and the ability to recognize criterion-level preference conflicts. Comprehensive analysis of 25 LMMs reveals that 1) proprietary models still struggle to maintain consistent adherence to pluralistic criteria--especially in open-ended evaluation; 2) open-source models lag further behind in flexibly following diverse criteria; and 3) critic fine-tuning with holistic judgment signals enhances visual grounding but fails to generalize to pluralistic criterion-level judgment. Additional analyses on reasoning fine-tuning, test-time scaling, and boundary consistency between open-source and proprietary models further probe the limits of current multimodal judges. As a pioneering study, Multi-Crit lays the foundation for building reliable and steerable multimodal AI evaluation.

We introduce Mistake Attribution (MATT), a new task for fine-grained understanding of human mistakes in egocentric videos. While prior work detects whether a mistake occurs, MATT attributes the mistake to what part of the instruction is violated (semantic role), when in the video the deviation becomes irreversible (the Point-of-No-Return, PNR), and where the mistake appears in the PNR frame. We develop MisEngine, a data engine that automatically constructs mistake samples from existing datasets with attribution-rich annotations. Applied to large egocentric corpora, MisEngine yields EPIC-KITCHENS-M and Ego4D-M---two datasets up to two orders of magnitude larger than prior mistake datasets.We then present MisFormer, a unified attention-based model for mistake attribution across semantic, temporal, and spatial dimensions, trained with MisEngine supervision. A human study demonstrates the ecological validity of our MisEngine-constructed mistake samples, confirming that EPIC-KITCHENS-M and Ego4D-M can serve as reliable benchmarks for mistake understanding. Experiments on both our datasets and prior benchmarks show that MisFormer, as a single unified model, outperforms task-specific SOTA methods by at least 6.66%, 21.81%, 18.7%, and 3.00% in video-language understanding, temporal localization, hand-object interaction, and mistake detection, respectively.
