C$^2$Path: Class-Conditional Pathway Decoupling for Vision-Language Incremental Object Detection

Incremental Object Detection (IOD) aims to enable detectors to continuously learn novel categories while preserving previously acquired knowledge. However, existing methods suffer from two forms of \textbf{class knowledge coupling}: class boundary erosion induced by shared parameter updates and class representation entanglement arising from mixed feature encoding. We argue that effective incremental learning requires class-specific computational pathways that enable isolated parameter updates and separated class-wise injection. To this end, we propose \textbf{C$^2$Path}, a class-conditional pathway decoupling framework for vision-language incremental object detection that leverages token-level class cues to establish dedicated and updatable computational pathways for different categories. Specifically, C$^2$Path introduces a category expert library and a class-conditional decoupling module. The expert library consists of learnable low-rank computational nodes that capture category-specific knowledge, while the decoupling module generates class-aware routing signals to dynamically compose \textit{ClassLoRA} adapters from these experts, thereby forming class-specific computational pathways for isolated updates and separated injection across categories. Extensive experiments on COCO 2017 under multiple incremental learning settings demonstrate that C$^2$Path consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods, providing an effective and scalable solution for continual category expansion in vision-language detectors.

SPARGen: Unifying Spatial Perception and Reasoning through Native Multimodal Generation

Spatial perception and reasoning from visual observations require recovering geometric structure, establishing correspondences, and understanding spatial relations. Existing approaches typically address these capabilities separately using task-specific architectures or external geometric modules, limiting knowledge transfer among complementary representations of the same physical scene. We introduce SPARGen, a unified multimodal framework that casts 3D reconstruction, dense correspondence, and spatial reasoning as instruction-conditioned generation tasks. SPARGen serializes compact structured and linguistic outputs as token sequences while generating dense geometric fields in image-aligned forms, enabling spatial supervision to jointly shape shared representations within a native multimodal generative model. Experiments across benchmarks for 3D reconstruction, correspondence, and spatial reasoning show that SPARGen achieves competitive performance across heterogeneous spatial tasks within a single native multimodal generative framework.

PromptPath: Prompt-Adaptive Computational Pathways for In-Context Learning

In-context learning (ICL) has attracted increasing attention for enabling models to perform new tasks using only a few ``input--output'' prompt examples. However, existing approaches suffer from \textbf{shallow task adaptation}, where prompts are primarily used as contextual cues to implicitly infer task intent through semantic representations, while the underlying computational process remains unchanged. This limitation restricts task-specific adaptation and compromises inference interpretability. We argue that prompts should not only condition feature representations but also dynamically regulate the model's computation pathways. To this end, we propose \textbf{PromptPath}, an adaptive ICL framework that enables computation-level adaptation through prompt-conditioned dynamic pathways. Specifically, PromptPath introduces a prompt-driven routing mechanism to selectively activate and compose lightweight low-rank experts, forming task-specific computational pathways tailored to different prompts. By integrating prompt information directly into the inference process, PromptPath dynamically reconfigures model computation to enhance task specialization and interpretability. Extensive experiments on 3D point cloud and 2D visual recognition benchmarks demonstrate that PromptPath consistently outperforms state-of-the-art ICL baselines while exhibiting strong cross-domain and cross-task generalization.

RealCam: Real-Time Novel-View Video Generation with Interactive Camera Control

Camera-controlled video-to-video (V2V) generation enables dynamic viewpoint synthesis from monocular footage, holding immense potential for interactive filmmaking and live broadcasting. However, existing implicit synthesis methods fundamentally rely on non-causal, full-sequence processing and rigid prefix-style temporal concatenation. This architectural paradigm mandates bidirectional attention, resulting in prohibitive computational latency, quadratic complexity scaling, and inherent incompatibility with real-time streaming or variable-length inputs. To overcome these limitations, we introduce \texttt{RealCam}, a novel autoregressive framework for interactive, real-time camera-controlled V2V generation. We first design a high-fidelity teacher model grounded in a \textbf{Cross-frame In-context Learning} paradigm. By interleaving source and target frames into synchronized contextual pairs, our design inherently enables length-agnostic generalization and naturally facilitates causal adaptation, breaking the rigid prefix bottleneck. We then distill this teacher into a few-step causal student via Self-Forcing with Distribution Matching Distillation, enabling efficient, on-the-fly streaming synthesis. Furthermore, to mitigate severe loop inconsistency in closed-loop trajectories, we propose \textbf{Loop-Closed Data Augmentation (LoopAug)}, a novel paradigm that synthesizes globally consistent loop sequences from existing multiview datasets. Extensive experiments demonstrate that \texttt{RealCam} achieves state-of-the-art visual fidelity and temporal consistency while enabling truly interactive camera control with orders-of-magnitude faster inference than existing paradigms.

GateMOT: Q-Gated Attention for Dense Object Tracking

While large models demonstrate the strong representational power of vanilla attention, this core mechanism cannot be directly applied to Dense Object Tracking: its quadratic all-to-all interactions are computationally prohibitive for dense motion estimation on high-resolution features. This mismatch prevents Dense Object Tracking from fully leveraging attention-based modeling in crowded and occlusion-heavy scenes. To address this challenge, we introduce GateMOT, an online tracking framework centered on Q-Gated Attention (Q-Attention), an efficient and spatially aware attention variant. Our key idea is to repurpose the Query from a similarity-conditioning term into a learnable gating unit. This Gating-Query (Gating-Q) produces a probabilistic gate that modulates Key features in an element-wise manner, enabling explicit relevance selection instead of costly global aggregation. Built on this mechanism, parallel Q-Attention heads transform one shared feature map into task-specific yet consistent representations for detection, motion, and re-identification, yielding a tightly coupled multi-task decoder with linear-complexity gating operations. GateMOT achieves state-of-the-art HOTA of 48.4, MOTA of 67.8, and IDF1 of 64.5 on BEE24, and demonstrates strong performance on additional Dense Object Tracking benchmarks. These results show that Q-Attention is a simple, effective, and transferable building block for attention-based tracking in dense tracking scenarios.

DVAR: Adversarial Multi-Agent Debate for Video Authenticity Detection

The rapid evolution of video generation technologies poses a significant challenge to media forensics, as conventional detection methods often fail to generalize beyond their training distributions. To address this, we propose DVAR (Debate-based Video Authenticity Reasoning), a training-free framework that reformulates video detection as a structured multi-agent forensic reasoning process. Moving beyond the paradigm of pattern matching, DVAR orchestrates a competition between a Generative Hypothesis Agent and a Natural Mechanism Agent. Through iterative rounds of cross-examination, these agents defend their respective explanations against abnormal evidence, driving a logical convergence where the truth emerges from rigorous stress-testing. To adjudicate these conflicting claims, we apply Occam's Razor through the Minimum Description Length (MDL) framework, defining an Explanatory Cost to quantify the "logical burden" of each reasoning path. Furthermore, we integrate GenVideoKB, a dynamic knowledge repository that provides high-level reasoning heuristics on generative boundaries and failure modes. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DVAR achieves competitive performance against supervised state-of-the-art methods while exhibiting superior generalization to unseen generative architectures. By transforming detection into a transparent debate, DVAR provides explicit, interpretable reasoning traces for robust video authenticity assessment.

IAD-Unify: A Region-Grounded Unified Model for Industrial Anomaly Segmentation, Understanding, and Generation

Real-world industrial inspection requires not only localizing defects, but also explaining them in natural language and generating controlled defect edits. However, existing approaches fail to jointly support all three capabilities within a unified framework and evaluation protocol. We propose IAD-Unify, a dual-encoder unified framework in which a frozen DINOv2-based region expert supplies precise anomaly evidence to a shared Qwen3.5-4B vision-language backbone via lightweight token injection, jointly enabling anomaly segmentation, region-grounded understanding, and mask-guided generation. To enable unified evaluation, we further construct Anomaly-56K, a comprehensive unified multi-task IAD evaluation platform, spanning 59,916 images across 24 categories and 104 defect variants. Controlled ablations yield four findings: (i) region grounding is the decisive mechanism for understanding, removing it degrades location accuracy by >76 pp; (ii) predicted-region performance closely matches oracle, confirming deployment viability; (iii) region-grounded generation achieves the best full-image fidelity and masked-region perceptual quality; and (iv) pre-initialized joint training improves understanding at negligible generation cost (-0.16 dB). IAD-Unify further achieves strong performance on the MMAD benchmark, including categories unseen during training, demonstrating robust cross-category generalization.

Rendering Multi-Human and Multi-Object with 3D Gaussian Splatting

Reconstructing dynamic scenes with multiple interacting humans and objects from sparse-view inputs is a critical yet challenging task, essential for creating high-fidelity digital twins for robotics and VR/AR. This problem, which we term Multi-Human Multi-Object (MHMO) rendering, presents two significant obstacles: achieving view-consistent representations for individual instances under severe mutual occlusion, and explicitly modeling the complex and combinatorial dependencies that arise from their interactions. To overcome these challenges, we propose MM-GS, a novel hierarchical framework built upon 3D Gaussian Splatting. Our method first employs a Per-Instance Multi-View Fusion module to establish a robust and consistent representation for each instance by aggregating visual information across all available views. Subsequently, a Scene-Level Instance Interaction module operates on a global scene graph to reason about relationships between all participants, refining their attributes to capture subtle interaction effects. Extensive experiments on challenging datasets demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms strong baselines, producing state-of-the-art results with high-fidelity details and plausible inter-instance contacts.

CoMoL: Efficient Mixture of LoRA Experts via Dynamic Core Space Merging

Large language models (LLMs) achieve remarkable performance on diverse downstream and domain-specific tasks via parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT). However, existing PEFT methods, particularly MoE-LoRA architectures, suffer from limited parameter efficiency and coarse-grained adaptation due to the proliferation of LoRA experts and instance-level routing. To address these issues, we propose Core Space Mixture of LoRA (\textbf{CoMoL}), a novel MoE-LoRA framework that incorporates expert diversity, parameter efficiency, and fine-grained adaptation. Specifically, CoMoL introduces two key components: core space experts and core space routing. Core space experts store each expert in a compact core matrix, preserving diversity while controlling parameter growth. Core space routing dynamically selects and activates the appropriate core experts for each token, enabling fine-grained, input-adaptive routing. Activated core experts are then merged via a soft-merging strategy into a single core expert, which is combined with a shared LoRA to form a specialized LoRA module. Besides, the routing network is projected into the same low-rank space as the LoRA matrices, further reducing parameter overhead without compromising expressiveness. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CoMoL retains the adaptability of MoE-LoRA architectures while achieving parameter efficiency comparable to standard LoRA, consistently outperforming existing methods across multiple tasks.

MAU-GPT: Enhancing Multi-type Industrial Anomaly Understanding via Anomaly-aware and Generalist Experts Adaptation

As industrial manufacturing scales, automating fine-grained product image analysis has become critical for quality control. However, existing approaches are hindered by limited dataset coverage and poor model generalization across diverse and complex anomaly patterns. To address these challenges, we introduce MAU-Set, a comprehensive dataset for Multi-type industrial Anomaly Understanding. It spans multiple industrial domains and features a hierarchical task structure, ranging from binary classification to complex reasoning. Alongside this dataset, we establish a rigorous evaluation protocol to facilitate fair and comprehensive model assessment. Building upon this foundation, we further present MAU-GPT, a domain-adapted multimodal large model specifically designed for industrial anomaly understanding. It incorporates a novel AMoE-LoRA mechanism that unifies anomaly-aware and generalist experts adaptation, enhancing both understanding and reasoning across diverse defect classes. Extensive experiments show that MAU-GPT consistently outperforms prior state-of-the-art methods across all domains, demonstrating strong potential for scalable and automated industrial inspection.

Uncertainty-Aware 4D Gaussian Splatting for Monocular Occluded Human Rendering

High-fidelity rendering of dynamic humans from monocular videos typically degrades catastrophically under occlusions. Existing solutions incorporate external priors-either hallucinating missing content via generative models, which induces severe temporal flickering, or imposing rigid geometric heuristics that fail to capture diverse appearances. To this end, we reformulate the task as a Maximum A Posteriori estimation problem under heteroscedastic observation noise. In this paper, we propose U-4DGS, a framework integrating a Probabilistic Deformation Network and a Joint Rasterization pipeline. This architecture renders pixel-aligned uncertainty maps that act as an adaptive gradient modulator, automatically attenuating artifacts from unreliable observations. Furthermore, to prevent geometric drift in regions lacking reliable visual cues, we enforce Confidence-Aware Regularizations, which leverage the learned uncertainty to selectively propagate spatial-temporal validity. Extensive experiments on the ZJU-MoCap and OcMotion datasets demonstrate that U-4DGS achieves state-of-the-art rendering fidelity and robustness.

Unified Personalized Understanding, Generating and Editing

Unified large multimodal models (LMMs) have achieved remarkable progress in general-purpose multimodal understanding and generation. However, they still operate under a ``one-size-fits-all'' paradigm and struggle to model user-specific concepts (e.g., generate a photo of \texttt{ }) in a consistent and controllable manner. Existing personalization methods typically rely on external retrieval, which is inefficient and poorly integrated into unified multimodal pipelines. Recent personalized unified models introduce learnable soft prompts to encode concept information, yet they either couple understanding and generation or depend on complex multi-stage training, leading to cross-task interference and ultimately to fuzzy or misaligned personalized knowledge. We present \textbf{OmniPersona}, an end-to-end personalization framework for unified LMMs that, for the first time, integrates personalized understanding, generation, and image editing within a single architecture. OmniPersona introduces structurally decoupled concept tokens, allocating dedicated subspaces for different tasks to minimize interference, and incorporates an explicit knowledge replay mechanism that propagates personalized attribute knowledge across tasks, enabling consistent personalized behavior. To systematically evaluate unified personalization, we propose \textbf{\texttt{OmniPBench}}, extending the public UnifyBench concept set with personalized editing tasks and cross-task evaluation protocols integrating understanding, generation, and editing. Experimental results demonstrate that OmniPersona delivers competitive and robust performance across diverse personalization tasks. We hope OmniPersona will serve as a strong baseline and spur further research on controllable, unified personalization.

$\text{H}^2$em: Learning Hierarchical Hyperbolic Embeddings for Compositional Zero-Shot Learning

Compositional zero-shot learning (CZSL) aims to recognize unseen state-object compositions by generalizing from a training set of their primitives (state and object). Current methods often overlook the rich hierarchical structures, such as the semantic hierarchy of primitives (e.g., apple fruit) and the conceptual hierarchy between primitives and compositions (e.g, sliced apple apple). A few recent efforts have shown effectiveness in modeling these hierarchies through loss regularization within Euclidean space. In this paper, we argue that they fail to scale to the large-scale taxonomies required for real-world CZSL: the space's polynomial volume growth in flat geometry cannot match the exponential structure, impairing generalization capacity. To this end, we propose H2em, a new framework that learns Hierarchical Hyperbolic EMbeddings for CZSL. H2em leverages the unique properties of hyperbolic geometry, a space naturally suited for embedding tree-like structures with low distortion. However, a naive hyperbolic mapping may suffer from hierarchical collapse and poor fine-grained discrimination. We further design two learning objectives to structure this space: a Dual-Hierarchical Entailment Loss that uses hyperbolic entailment cones to enforce the predefined hierarchies, and a Discriminative Alignment Loss with hard negative mining to establish a large geodesic distance between semantically similar compositions. Furthermore, we devise Hyperbolic Cross-Modal Attention to realize instance-aware cross-modal infusion within hyperbolic geometry. Extensive ablations on three benchmarks demonstrate that H2em establishes a new state-of-the-art in both closed-world and open-world scenarios. Our codes will be released.

CoMo: Compositional Motion Customization for Text-to-Video Generation

While recent text-to-video models excel at generating diverse scenes, they struggle with precise motion control, particularly for complex, multi-subject motions. Although methods for single-motion customization have been developed to address this gap, they fail in compositional scenarios due to two primary challenges: motion-appearance entanglement and ineffective multi-motion blending. This paper introduces CoMo, a novel framework for $\textbf{compositional motion customization}$ in text-to-video generation, enabling the synthesis of multiple, distinct motions within a single video. CoMo addresses these issues through a two-phase approach. First, in the single-motion learning phase, a static-dynamic decoupled tuning paradigm disentangles motion from appearance to learn a motion-specific module. Second, in the multi-motion composition phase, a plug-and-play divide-and-merge strategy composes these learned motions without additional training by spatially isolating their influence during the denoising process. To facilitate research in this new domain, we also introduce a new benchmark and a novel evaluation metric designed to assess multi-motion fidelity and blending. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CoMo achieves state-of-the-art performance, significantly advancing the capabilities of controllable video generation.

MICAS: Multi-grained In-Context Adaptive Sampling for 3D Point Cloud Processing

Point cloud processing (PCP) encompasses tasks like reconstruction, denoising, registration, and segmentation, each often requiring specialized models to address unique task characteristics. While in-context learning (ICL) has shown promise across tasks by using a single model with task-specific demonstration prompts, its application to PCP reveals significant limitations. We identify inter-task and intra-task sensitivity issues in current ICL methods for PCP, which we attribute to inflexible sampling strategies lacking context adaptation at the point and prompt levels. To address these challenges, we propose MICAS, an advanced ICL framework featuring a multi-grained adaptive sampling mechanism tailored for PCP. MICAS introduces two core components: task-adaptive point sampling, which leverages inter-task cues for point-level sampling, and query-specific prompt sampling, which selects optimal prompts per query to mitigate intra-task sensitivity. To our knowledge, this is the first approach to introduce adaptive sampling tailored to the unique requirements of point clouds within an ICL framework. Extensive experiments show that MICAS not only efficiently handles various PCP tasks but also significantly outperforms existing methods. Notably, it achieves a remarkable $4.1\%$ improvement in the part segmentation task and delivers consistent gains across various PCP applications.

Knowledge-guided Causal Intervention for Weakly-supervised Object Localization

Previous weakly-supervised object localization (WSOL) methods aim to expand activation map discriminative areas to cover the whole objects, yet neglect two inherent challenges when relying solely on image-level labels. First, the ``entangled context'' issue arises from object-context co-occurrence (\eg, fish and water), making the model inspection hard to distinguish object boundaries clearly. Second, the ``C-L dilemma'' issue results from the information decay caused by the pooling layers, which struggle to retain both the semantic information for precise classification and those essential details for accurate localization, leading to a trade-off in performance. In this paper, we propose a knowledge-guided causal intervention method, dubbed KG-CI-CAM, to address these two under-explored issues in one go. More specifically, we tackle the co-occurrence context confounder problem via causal intervention, which explores the causalities among image features, contexts, and categories to eliminate the biased object-context entanglement in the class activation maps. Based on the disentangled object feature, we introduce a multi-source knowledge guidance framework to strike a balance between absorbing classification knowledge and localization knowledge during model training. Extensive experiments conducted on several benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of KG-CI-CAM in learning distinct object boundaries amidst confounding contexts and mitigating the dilemma between classification and localization performance.

Counterfactual Co-occurring Learning for Bias Mitigation in Weakly-supervised Object Localization

Contemporary weakly-supervised object localization (WSOL) methods have primarily focused on addressing the challenge of localizing the most discriminative region while largely overlooking the relatively less explored issue of biased activation -- incorrectly spotlighting co-occurring background with the foreground feature. In this paper, we conduct a thorough causal analysis to investigate the origins of biased activation. Based on our analysis, we attribute this phenomenon to the presence of co-occurring background confounders. Building upon this profound insight, we introduce a pioneering paradigm known as Counterfactual Co-occurring Learning (CCL), meticulously engendering counterfactual representations by adeptly disentangling the foreground from the co-occurring background elements. Furthermore, we propose an innovative network architecture known as Counterfactual-CAM. This architecture seamlessly incorporates a perturbation mechanism for counterfactual representations into the vanilla CAM-based model. By training the WSOL model with these perturbed representations, we guide the model to prioritize the consistent foreground content while concurrently reducing the influence of distracting co-occurring backgrounds. To the best of our knowledge, this study represents the initial exploration of this research direction. Our extensive experiments conducted across multiple benchmarks validate the effectiveness of the proposed Counterfactual-CAM in mitigating biased activation.

Active Learning for Point Cloud Semantic Segmentation via Spatial-Structural Diversity Reasoning

The expensive annotation cost is notoriously known as the main constraint for the development of the point cloud semantic segmentation technique. Active learning methods endeavor to reduce such cost by selecting and labeling only a subset of the point clouds, yet previous attempts ignore the spatial-structural diversity of the selected samples, inducing the model to select clustered candidates with similar shapes in a local area while missing other representative ones in the global environment. In this paper, we propose a new 3D region-based active learning method to tackle this problem. Dubbed SSDR-AL, our method groups the original point clouds into superpoints and incrementally selects the most informative and representative ones for label acquisition. We achieve the selection mechanism via a graph reasoning network that considers both the spatial and structural diversities of superpoints. To deploy SSDR-AL in a more practical scenario, we design a noise-aware iterative labeling strategy to confront the "noisy annotation" problem introduced by the previous "dominant labeling" strategy in superpoints. Extensive experiments on two point cloud benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of SSDR-AL in the semantic segmentation task. Particularly, SSDR-AL significantly outperforms the baseline method and reduces the annotation cost by up to 63.0% and 24.0% when achieving 90% performance of fully supervised learning, respectively.
