Abstract

Splatting-based algorithms reconstruct photorealistic, real-time-renderable, and mesh-exportable 3D scenes from regular images, but they represent a scene as a single monolithic field. Therefore, the reconstruction has no object-level structure, leaving it infeasible for downstream editing or interaction. Moreover, regions that are never directly observed in the input scans are contaminated by the surrounding texture and left uncorrected, capping both mesh fidelity and novel-view synthesis. We propose a decompose-before-reconstruct approach: we segment the instances out of every frame, consider the remaining as background and inpaint it, reconstruct each instance and the background independently with mesh splatting, and compose them into a single scene. Our method significantly improves mesh fidelity (over a 5\% gain in F-score) and novel-view synthesis, while supporting object-wise modifiability and interactivity. The code will be made publicly available.

CheXtriev: Anatomy-Centered Representation for Case-Based Retrieval of Chest Radiographs

We present CheXtriev, a graph-based, anatomy-aware framework for chest radiograph retrieval. Unlike prior methods focussed on global features, our method leverages graph transformers to extract informative features from specific anatomical regions. Furthermore, it captures spatial context and the interplay between anatomical location and findings. This contextualization, grounded in evidence-based anatomy, results in a richer anatomy-aware representation and leads to more accurate, effective and efficient retrieval, particularly for less prevalent findings. CheXtriv outperforms state-of-the-art global and local approaches by 18% to 26% in retrieval accuracy and 11% to 23% in ranking quality. The code is available at https://github.com/cvit-mip/chextriev.

QCell: Recombining and Aligning Cell Queries for Overlapping Instance Segmentation

Instance segmentation of overlapping cells in microscopy remains challenging due to semi-transparent structures that produce weak boundaries and mixed visual evidence in overlap regions. Existing methods address this through local regions of interest or shape priors but lack global reasoning across overlapping objects. We present QCell, a novel query-based model that de-overlaps cell instances in microscopy scenes. Our approach combines (i) an instance recombination module that decomposes and recombines query representations in latent space, enabling the model to reason about complete object structure under overlap, and (ii) a contrastive query alignment objective that combines distinctive instance feature learning and separation of overlapping cell queries. We additionally introduce a new Organoid dataset benchmark for overlapping cell segmentation. We show that QCell outperforms state-of-the-art methods across multiple benchmarks, achieving +2.2 AP and +2.7 AJI on ISBI2014. Code is available at https://github.com/SlavkoPrytula/QCell

VIBE: Video Instruction-aligned Background music gEneration

Current video-to-music (V2M) models lack semantic control and fail to penalize instruction violations, largely due to their reliance on reconstruction objectives and the representational bottleneck of static cross-modal conditioning in Diffusion Autoregressive (DAR) architectures. To resolve this, we introduce VIBE, a novel text-and-video-to-music (T+V2M) generation model that leverages: (1) Conditioning Connection, a depth-wise cross-layer conditioning mechanism that dynamically bridges the planning and diffusion refinement heads and (2) a comprehensive reward modeling taxonomy, optimizing for both hard, verifiable constraints (e.g., tempo, key) and soft, subjective qualities (e.g., musicality, multimodal alignment) with a structured 5-stage training curriculum. Upon evaluation using audio-visual alignment, instruction following, and audio quality metrics, along with a subjective human evaluation study, we observe that VIBE demonstrates enhanced controllability and instruction adherence while performing comparably to most evaluated baselines on generation fidelity and multimodal alignment.
