Solution for UCF UrbanTwin LUMPI Track: Sim-to-Real Urban LiDAR 3D Object Detection

We present our solution to the LUMPI track of the UCF UrbanTwin Sim2Real LiDAR Challenge at the 6th DriveX Workshop, ECCV 2026. The detector must be trained only on synthetic data and is evaluated on 50 held-out real LiDAR frames; a separate 50-frame synthetic submission is evaluated for point-cloud realism. Our method addresses the Sim2Real gap at three levels. First, we align synthetic scans to the 50k-point test density and build a 30k-record training pool using UT-LUMPI geometry, RangeLDM-based sampling diversification, rare-class copy-paste, and pedestrian-oriented augmentation. Second, complementary DSVT detectors and Car/Bus PointPillars specialists are trained under the same synthetic-only constraint. Third, predictions are integrated by class-aware routing, asymmetric agreement fusion, constrained residual-recall supplementation, class-coverage auditing, and selective box-size calibration. The realism branch is optimized independently with radial-density matching, weak affine calibration, and calibrated set mixing. The final submission obtains a Combined Score of 0.4692, a Detection Score of 0.1797, a Realism Score of 0.9035, and 3D mAP@0.5 of 0.1258.

Solution for UCF UrbanTwin V2X-Real Track: Sim-to-Real Urban LiDAR 3D Object Detection

Bridging the simulation-to-reality gap in roadside LiDAR requires addressing several coupled discrepancies, including scene geometry, sampling density, return patterns, and pedestrian scale. This report presents a multi-source collaborative training and class-aware fusion framework for Sim2Real 3D detection. The method organizes digital-twin scans, diffusion-redrawn scans, density-stabilized scans, and pedestrian morphology-aligned samples into a unified training pool with complementary roles. Within a common DSVT detection formulation, source-specialized expert branches preserve those roles while optimizing for the same detection objective. At inference, a predefined class-aware fusion pathway integrates geometry-stable and calibration-aware branches for vehicles, sampling-complementary branches for trucks, and morphology-consistent evidence for pedestrians. A label-free point-cloud center blend then refines geometric localization. On the UrbanTwin V2X-Real hidden test set, the unified system achieves a combined score of 0.7421, with 3D mAP@0.5 of 0.4518 and a realism score of 0.8871. The results indicate that a stable, interpretable collaboration among data sources is more valuable than unconstrained aggregation of model outputs.

Bridging the Generalization Gap in Adverse Weather Segmentation: A Training Recipe Perspective

This paper describes our approach for the 8th UG2+ Workshop (CVPR 2026) Track~2, which targets semantic segmentation of outdoor scenes degraded by five weather conditions: blur, darkness, snow, haze, and glare. A central challenge we observe is a severe generalization gap -- models that perform well on the validation set often collapse on the test set. For instance, SegFormer-B5 drops 16.1 mIoU points from validation to test, suggesting that model capacity alone is insufficient for robustness. We investigate whether a carefully designed training recipe, rather than architectural complexity, can address this gap. Starting from a pre-trained SegMAN-S backbone, we systematically study the effects of domain-adaptive fine-tuning, multi-source data mixing, scene-balanced sampling, and synthetic degradation augmentation. Our final system achieves 59.9\% mIoU on the official test set while maintaining a validation-test gap of only 6.5 points -- less than half that of larger models. We analyze negative results from architectural modifications, loss function variants, and model scaling to provide practical insights for weather-robust segmentation under limited data.

MARS2 2025 Challenge on Multimodal Reasoning: Datasets, Methods, Results, Discussion, and Outlook

This paper reviews the MARS2 2025 Challenge on Multimodal Reasoning. We aim to bring together different approaches in multimodal machine learning and LLMs via a large benchmark. We hope it better allows researchers to follow the state-of-the-art in this very dynamic area. Meanwhile, a growing number of testbeds have boosted the evolution of general-purpose large language models. Thus, this year's MARS2 focuses on real-world and specialized scenarios to broaden the multimodal reasoning applications of MLLMs. Our organizing team released two tailored datasets Lens and AdsQA as test sets, which support general reasoning in 12 daily scenarios and domain-specific reasoning in advertisement videos, respectively. We evaluated 40+ baselines that include both generalist MLLMs and task-specific models, and opened up three competition tracks, i.e., Visual Grounding in Real-world Scenarios (VG-RS), Visual Question Answering with Spatial Awareness (VQA-SA), and Visual Reasoning in Creative Advertisement Videos (VR-Ads). Finally, 76 teams from the renowned academic and industrial institutions have registered and 40+ valid submissions (out of 1200+) have been included in our ranking lists. Our datasets, code sets (40+ baselines and 15+ participants' methods), and rankings are publicly available on the MARS2 workshop website and our GitHub organization page https://github.com/mars2workshop/, where our updates and announcements of upcoming events will be continuously provided.

Adapting and Evaluating Multimodal Large Language Models for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Self-Management: A Divide and Conquer Framework

This study presents the first comprehensive evaluation of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) self-management. We constructed a database of approximately 3,000 anteroposterior X-rays with diagnostic texts and evaluated five MLLMs through a `Divide and Conquer' framework consisting of a visual question-answering task, a domain knowledge assessment task, and a patient education counseling assessment task. Our investigation revealed limitations of MLLMs' ability in interpreting complex spinal radiographs and comprehending AIS care knowledge. To address these, we pioneered enhancing MLLMs with spinal keypoint prompting and compiled an AIS knowledge base for retrieval augmented generation (RAG), respectively. Results showed varying effectiveness of visual prompting across different architectures, while RAG substantially improved models' performances on the knowledge assessment task. Our findings indicate current MLLMs are far from capable in realizing personalized assistant in AIS care. The greatest challenge lies in their abilities to obtain accurate detections of spinal deformity locations (best accuracy: 0.55) and directions (best accuracy: 0.13).

AIM 2025 Rip Current Segmentation (RipSeg) Challenge Report

This report presents an overview of the AIM 2025 RipSeg Challenge, a competition designed to advance techniques for automatic rip current segmentation in still images. Rip currents are dangerous, fast-moving flows that pose a major risk to beach safety worldwide, making accurate visual detection an important and underexplored research task. The challenge builds on RipVIS, the largest available rip current dataset, and focuses on single-class instance segmentation, where precise delineation is critical to fully capture the extent of rip currents. The dataset spans diverse locations, rip current types, and camera orientations, providing a realistic and challenging benchmark. In total, $75$ participants registered for this first edition, resulting in $5$ valid test submissions. Teams were evaluated on a composite score combining $F_1$, $F_2$, $AP_{50}$, and $AP_{[50:95]}$, ensuring robust and application-relevant rankings. The top-performing methods leveraged deep learning architectures, domain adaptation techniques, pretrained models, and domain generalization strategies to improve performance under diverse conditions. This report outlines the dataset details, competition framework, evaluation metrics, and final results, providing insights into the current state of rip current segmentation. We conclude with a discussion of key challenges, lessons learned from the submissions, and future directions for expanding RipSeg.
