Dose-Aware Cold Diffusion with Physics Consistency for Generalizable Low-Dose CT Reconstruction

Reducing radiation dose in computed tomography significantly degrades image quality and poses challenges for accurate and clinically reliable reconstruction. While recent approaches have shown promise for low-dose CT, they often struggle to generalize across continuous and previously unseen dose levels, leading to artifacts and loss of anatomical detail. To address these limitations, we propose Dose-Aware Cold Diffusion (DACD), a physics-consistent reconstruction framework that explicitly models radiation dose as a continuous latent factor within a cold diffusion process. The proposed DACD framework integrates image-based dose-aware perception, multi-scale structural prior extraction, and dose-calibrated step allocation to adaptively guide the denoising trajectory. In addition, an iterative forward-backprojection correction is incorporated into the reverse refinement process to enforce projection-domain data consistency. Extensive experiments on three public benchmarks, including Mayo-2020, Mayo-2016, and LoDoPaB-CT, demonstrate that DACD consistently outperforms state-of-the-art diffusion-based and physics-guided methods in both quantitative accuracy and visual fidelity, particularly under ultra-low-dose conditions. The results show that DACD achieves robust generalization across a continuous range of dose levels, including those unseen during training.

Adaptive Cross-Modal Fusion with Sparse Attention for Pedestrian Crossing Intention Prediction

Predicting pedestrian crossing intention is a safety-critical task for autonomous driving, yet existing approaches often rely on single-modal inputs or dense multimodal fusion strategies that inadequately capture complementary visual and kinematic information while introducing redundant inter-modal interactions. We propose ADAPT (Adaptive Domain-Aware Pedestrian Crossing Transformer), a multimodal framework that jointly models local and global visual context together with temporal motion dynamics for accurate pedestrian crossing intention prediction. ADAPT processes four spatially aligned visual modalities, including RGB images, local depth maps, global semantic maps, and global depth maps, together with ego-vehicle speed, pedestrian bounding boxes, and skeleton pose information through five specialized modules: a weight-shared Swin Transformer V2 backbone for visual feature extraction, a Cross-Modality Guided Attention module for hierarchical visual fusion, a Mamba-based Motion Feature Encoding module for efficient temporal modeling, a Sparse Cross-Modal Attention module that selectively preserves the most informative inter-modal interactions, and a Vision Transformer-based Temporal Feature Fusion module for sequence-level prediction. Extensive experiments on the JAAD and PIE benchmark datasets demonstrate that ADAPT consistently outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods while maintaining low computational complexity. On JAAD, the proposed method achieves an AUC of 0.73 on JAADbeh and 0.85 on JAADall, while on PIE it achieves an accuracy of 0.92 and an AUC of 0.90. Furthermore, ADAPT performs inference in only 17.23 ms per sample, offering an effective balance between predictive accuracy and real-time deployment efficiency for intelligent transportation and autonomous driving applications.

TSCA-Net: Temporal-Spatial Clique Attention for Interpretable Multimodal Pedestrian Trajectory Prediction

Accurate pedestrian trajectory prediction in crowded environments remains challenging due to the multimodal uncertainty of human motion and the variable complexity of motion dynamics across different scene contexts. Existing goal-conditioned models rely on static displacement structures that assign equal weight to all historical time steps, standard graph attention mechanisms, and fixed-capacity motion decoders that cannot adapt to local prediction complexity. To address these limitations, we propose TSCA-Net, a trajectory prediction framework built upon three complementary modules. The Temporal-Spatial Clique Attention (TSCA) module introduces learnable temporal gating into clique-based goal-history interaction, enabling time-aware modulation of historical observations relative to each candidate goal. The Cross-Pedestrian Clique Potential (CPCP) module models asymmetric pairwise agent relationships through a dynamic clique potential framework with a time-varying social graph. The Adaptive KAN Grid Refinement (AKGR) mechanism dynamically adjusts the B-spline grid resolution of a Kolmogorov-Arnold Network-augmented LSTM decoder based on per-agent goal distribution entropy, balancing model expressiveness against overfitting across varying motion complexities. Extensive experiments on the ETH/UCY and Stanford Drone Dataset benchmarks demonstrate that TSCA-Net achieves state-of-the-art performance, with average ADE/FDE of 0.13/0.20 m on ETH/UCY and 6.95/10.43 pixels on SDD. Comprehensive ablation studies confirm the complementary contributions of all three proposed modules.

GenDiff: A Dose and Anatomy Aware Diffusion Model with Structural Prior Refinement for Low-Dose CT Reconstruction and Generalization

Computed tomography (CT) is a critical imaging modality for clinical diagnosis, but reducing radiation dose inevitably introduces severe noise and structured artifacts that degrade image quality. Existing deep learning-based low-dose CT (LDCT) reconstruction methods are typically optimized for fixed dose levels or specific anatomical regions, limiting their robustness and generalization in realistic clinical settings. We propose GenDiff, a generalizable diffusion-based framework for LDCT reconstruction that jointly models continuous radiation dose and anatomical information within a unified reconstruction network. The proposed framework integrates a Dose-Anatomy Encoder to learn acquisition-aware embeddings, a dose- and anatomy-conditioned cold diffusion backbone for iterative refinement, a physics-consistency update to enforce fidelity to the CT forward model, and a Structural Prior Refinement Module (SPRM) that preserves anatomical structures while suppressing dose-dependent artifacts. Extensive experiments on multi-anatomy clinical datasets, including unseen ultra-low-dose conditions as well as out-of-distribution phantom and animal datasets, demonstrate that GenDiff consistently outperforms state-of-the-art convolutional neural network and diffusion-based reconstruction methods. The proposed approach achieves superior reconstruction quality while maintaining strong robustness across different dose levels, anatomical regions, and acquisition domains, making it a promising solution for practical low-dose CT imaging.
