Instance Segmentation and Fine-grained Classification for Urban Buildings with Adaptive Region Dividing and Spatially-Supervised Contrastive Learning

Accurate instance-level and functional understanding of urban buildings in large-scale point clouds is essential for digital city modeling and urban analysis. However, the extensive spatial coverage of urban scenes leads most existing methods to rely on predefined blocks for training and evaluation, although such partitions are rarely available in real-world applications and introduce additional preprocessing while fragmenting complete building structures. To address this issue, we propose an adaptive region-dividing strategy with unified scene-level evaluation. Specifically, the 3D point cloud is projected onto a bird's-eye-view (BEV) plane, where a pretrained segmentation model is used to detect building regions. The detected bounding boxes are then back-projected to the original point cloud to construct structure-aligned adaptive training blocks, enabling semantically guided dynamic partitioning without manual design. Furthermore, beyond instance-level understanding, few methods have explored fine-grained classification for urban buildings, and thus we also put forward a fine-grained classification model for urban buildings with a spatially-supervised contrastive loss. First, for each segmented building, a point transformer classifier jointly encodes its body and local context using geometric, color, and core-context information. Then, the class-balanced weighted cross-entropy is used to alleviate severe class imbalance. The proposed spatially-supervised contrastive loss further enhances inter-class discriminability by assigning greater weight to spatially proximate, same-category buildings, encouraging compact functional representations while separating easily confused categories. Extensive experiments on UrbanBIS and STPLS3D demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method in building instance segmentation and fine-grained classification compared to existing SOTA methods.

StreetDiff: Multi-view Street Scenes Generation via Cross-view Consistent Multi-view Stable Diffusion with Structure Prompts

Multi-view diffusion models have shown strong performance in scenes with strong geometric priors and sparse semantics, such as indoor rooms or simple outdoor environments (e.g., fields, courtyards). However, they often fail to maintain cross-view consistency under camera rotation, especially in structurally complex urban environments. Without explicit modeling of spherical correspondence across views, existing approaches tend to produce object duplication, structural distortion, and layout inconsistency. To address this limitation, we propose StreetDiff, a multi-view diffusion framework that explicitly enforces cross-view alignment during denoising. StreetDiff introduces a Panorama--Perspective Synergy design to decouple global layout reasoning from local detail synthesis, and incorporates a Panorama Alignment Module (PAM) that establishes spherical-projection-based attention constraints across views. By injecting structured alignment constraints without modifying the diffusion backbone, our framework achieves robust cross-view coherence in challenging urban street scene generation tasks. In addition, we construct Street360, a large-scale HDR multi-view urban panorama dataset. Extensive experiments demonstrate that StreetDiff significantly improves structural consistency and visual fidelity compared to prior multi-view diffusion generation methods.

Dense Cores in the Vicinity of an HII Region

Massive stars strongly influence their surroundings through radiative and mechanical feedback, but its effects on dense gas structures at sub-pc scales remain poorly constrained. We investigate how feedback from a newly formed massive star affects dense cores in the filamentary molecular cloud IRAS 18530+0215. We analyze ALMA Band 6 observations of 1.3 mm dust continuum and DCN, N$_2$D$^+$, and $^{13}$CS line emission, together with VLA K-band continuum and NH$_3$ observations. Dense cores are identified with astrodendro, and their temperatures, masses, velocity dispersions, and virial parameters are derived. The dynamical state of the ultra-compact H II region is examined through energy and pressure estimates. The H II region has a radius of $\sim$0.1 pc and an expansion velocity of $\sim$2.5 km s$^{-1}$, corresponding to a shell dynamical age of $\sim$0.06 Myr. DCN and $^{13}$CS cores are concentrated near the H II region, whereas N$_2$D$^+$ cores preferentially lie farther away. Core temperatures and velocity dispersions decrease with projected distance from the H II region. Virial parameters increase within the inner $\sim$0.3 pc but decline sharply beyond this scale, while core masses show no significant trend with distance. Strong star formation signatures are found at $\sim$0.2 pc, whereas more distant regions still host quiescent, cold dense cores. The compact H II region appears trapped or choked within $\sim$0.1 pc, while its feedback extends to at least $\sim$0.3 pc. Within this region, feedback enhances core velocity dispersions, gas temperatures, and virial parameters, with no evidence that it promotes the formation of more massive dense cores.

On the Variance Fraction of the Hard-Core Model on Graphs with Bounded Maximum Degree

The hard-core model can be used to understand the number of independent sets in graphs in extremal graph theory. The occupancy fraction, defined by Davies \textit{et al.} in 2017 as the logarithmic derivative of the independence polynomial of a graph, is a key quantity in the hard-core model. The variance fraction, introduced by Davies \textit{et al.} in 2025, is defined as the derivative of the occupancy fraction with respect to the logarithm of the fugacity. Since the occupancy fraction can be obtained by integrating the variance fraction with respect to the logarithm of the fugacity, bounding the variance fraction yields the corresponding bounds on the occupancy fraction. Moreover, the occupancy fraction correlates, in quantity, to the independence polynomial. In this note we provide two lower bounds on the variance fraction, proving the conjecture by Davies \textit{et al.} in 2025, for graphs with bounded maximum degree and for graphs with $n$ vertices, respectively. We also derive lower bounds for other graph classes, including graphs with a given edge chromatic number, $d$-regular graphs, and triangle-free graphs with bounded maximum degree.
