DriftParking: Trajectory Modeling via Drifting Field for End-to-End Automated Parking

Automated parking requires generating complete and executable trajectories in highly constrained spaces with low tolerance for goal pose error. Existing end-to-end parking methods struggle to jointly achieve inference efficiency, trajectory quality, and precise endpoint alignment, while conventional imitation objectives provide limited supervision on structured deviations from expert maneuver geometry. We propose DriftParking, a one-step trajectory generation framework that reconstructs the drifting-field paradigm for high-precision conditional trajectory generation. Specifically, we replace distribution-level attraction with conditional one-to-one attraction toward the paired expert trajectory, introduce expert-centered constructive repulsion, and adaptively attenuate repulsion near convergence. We further formulate trajectory generation in an endpoint-residual space by decomposing each trajectory into a start-to-goal baseline and a learnable residual, turning endpoint alignment into a representation-level structural constraint on the supervision target while providing a structured space for repulsive supervision. DriftParking achieves state-of-the-art performance across all evaluation metrics. Closed-loop on-vehicle experiments across diverse parking scenarios further show a 97% parking success rate, demonstrating strong zero-shot generalization.

The Fourth Challenge on Image Super-Resolution ($\times$4) at NTIRE 2026: Benchmark Results and Method Overview

This paper presents the NTIRE 2026 image super-resolution ($\times$4) challenge, one of the associated competitions of the NTIRE 2026 Workshop at CVPR 2026. The challenge aims to reconstruct high-resolution (HR) images from low-resolution (LR) inputs generated through bicubic downsampling with a $\times$4 scaling factor. The objective is to develop effective super-resolution solutions and analyze recent advances in the field. To reflect the evolving objectives of image super-resolution, the challenge includes two tracks: (1) a restoration track, which emphasizes pixel-wise fidelity and ranks submissions based on PSNR; and (2) a perceptual track, which focuses on visual realism and evaluates results using a perceptual score. A total of 194 participants registered for the challenge, with 31 teams submitting valid entries. This report summarizes the challenge design, datasets, evaluation protocol, main results, and methods of participating teams. The challenge provides a unified benchmark and offers insights into current progress and future directions in image super-resolution.

Fose: Fusion of One-Step Diffusion and End-to-End Network for Pansharpening

Pansharpening is a significant image fusion task that fuses low-resolution multispectral images (LRMSI) and high-resolution panchromatic images (PAN) to obtain high-resolution multispectral images (HRMSI). The development of the diffusion models (DM) and the end-to-end models (E2E model) has greatly improved the frontier of pansharping. DM takes the multi-step diffusion to obtain an accurate estimation of the residual between LRMSI and HRMSI. However, the multi-step process takes large computational power and is time-consuming. As for E2E models, their performance is still limited by the lack of prior and simple structure. In this paper, we propose a novel four-stage training strategy to obtain a lightweight network Fose, which fuses one-step DM and an E2E model. We perform one-step distillation on an enhanced SOTA DM for pansharping to compress the inference process from 50 steps to only 1 step. Then we fuse the E2E model with one-step DM with lightweight ensemble blocks. Comprehensive experiments are conducted to demonstrate the significant improvement of the proposed Fose on three commonly used benchmarks. Moreover, we achieve a 7.42 speedup ratio compared to the baseline DM while achieving much better performance. The code and model are released at https://github.com/Kai-Liu001/Fose.

B2LoRa: Boosting LoRa Transmission for Satellite-IoT Systems with Blind Coherent Combining

With the rapid growth of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks, satellite-IoT systems using the LoRa technique have been increasingly deployed to provide widespread Internet services to low-power and low-cost ground devices. However, the long transmission distance and adverse environments from IoT satellites to ground devices pose a huge challenge to link reliability, as evidenced by the measurement results based on our real-world setup. In this paper, we propose a blind coherent combining design named B2LoRa to boost LoRa transmission performance. The intuition behind B2LoRa is to leverage the repeated broadcasting mechanism inherent in satellite-IoT systems to achieve coherent combining under the low-power and low-cost constraints, where each re-transmission at different times is regarded as the same packet transmitted from different antenna elements within an antenna array. Then, the problem is translated into aligning these packets at a fine granularity despite the time, frequency, and phase offsets between packets in the case of frequent packet loss. To overcome this challenge, we present three designs - joint packet sniffing, frequency shift alignment, and phase drift mitigation to deal with ultra-low SNRs and Doppler shifts featured in satellite-IoT systems, respectively. Finally, experiment results based on our real-world deployments demonstrate the high efficiency of B2LoRa.

ObliuSky: Oblivious User-Defined Skyline Query Processing in the Cloud

The proliferation of cloud computing has greatly spurred the popularity of outsourced database storage and management, in which the cloud holding outsourced databases can process database queries on demand. Among others, skyline queries play an important role in the database field due to its prominent usefulness in multi-criteria decision support systems. To accommodate the tailored needs of users, user-defined skyline query has recently emerged as an intriguing advanced type of skyline query, which allows users to define custom preferences in their skyline queries (including the target attributes, preferred dominance relations, and range constraints on the target attributes). However, user-defined skyline query services, if deployed in the cloud, may raise critical privacy concerns as the outsourced databases and skyline queries may contain proprietary/privacy-sensitive information, and the cloud might even suffer from data breaches. In light of the above, this paper presents ObliuSky, a new system framework enabling oblivious user-defined skyline query processing in the cloud. ObliuSky departs from the state-of-the-art prior work by not only providing confidentiality protection for the content of the outsourced database, the user-defined skyline query, and the query results, but also making the cloud oblivious to the data patterns (e.g., user-defined dominance relations among database points and search access patterns) which may indirectly cause data leakages. We formally analyze the security guarantees and conduct extensive performance evaluations. The results show that while achieving much stronger security guarantees than the state-of-the-art prior work, ObliuSky is superior in database and query encryption efficiency, with practically affordable query latency.

Being Aware of Localization Accuracy By Generating Predicted-IoU-Guided Quality Scores

Localization Quality Estimation (LQE) helps to improve detection performance as it benefits post processing through jointly considering classification score and localization accuracy. In this perspective, for further leveraging the close relationship between localization accuracy and IoU (Intersection-Over-Union), and for depressing those inconsistent predictions, we designed an elegant LQE branch to acquire localization quality score guided by predicted IoU. Distinctly, for alleviating the inconsistency of classification score and localization quality during training and inference, under which some predictions with low classification scores but high LQE scores will impair the performance, instead of separately and independently setting, we embedded LQE branch into classification branch, producing a joint classification-localization-quality representation. Then a novel one stage detector termed CLQ is proposed. Extensive experiments show that CLQ achieves state-of-the-arts' performance at an accuracy of 47.8 AP and a speed of 11.5 fps with ResNeXt-101 as backbone on COCO test-dev. Finally, we extend CLQ to ATSS, producing a reliable 1.2 AP gain, showing our model's strong adaptability and scalability. Codes are released at https://github.com/PanffeeReal/CLQ.

SecSkyline: Fast Privacy-Preserving Skyline Queries over Encrypted Cloud Databases

The well-known benefits of cloud computing have spurred the popularity of database service outsourcing, where one can resort to the cloud to conveniently store and query databases. Coming with such popular trend is the threat to data privacy, as the cloud gains access to the databases and queries which may contain sensitive information, like medical or financial data. A large body of work has been presented for querying encrypted databases, which has been mostly focused on secure keyword search. In this paper, we instead focus on the support for secure skyline query processing over encrypted outsourced databases, where little work has been done. Skyline query is an advanced kind of database query which is important for multi-criteria decision-making systems and applications. We propose SecSkyline, a new system framework building on lightweight cryptography for fast privacy-preserving skyline queries. SecSkyline ambitiously provides strong protection for not only the content confidentiality of the outsourced database, the query, and the result, but also for data patterns that may incur indirect data leakages, such as dominance relationships among data points and search access patterns. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SecSkyline is substantially superior to the state-of-the-art in query latency, with up to 813$\times$ improvement.
