Adaptive Multi-Scale Channel-Spatial Attention Aggregation Framework for 3D Indoor Semantic Scene Completion Toward Assisting Visually Impaired

Independent indoor mobility remains a critical challenge for individuals with visual impairments, largely due to the limited capability of existing assistive systems in detecting fine-grained hazardous objects such as chairs, tables, and small obstacles. These perceptual blind zones substantially increase the risk of collision in unfamiliar environments. To bridge the gap between monocular 3D vision research and practical assistive deployment, this paper proposes an Adaptive Multi-scale Attention Aggregation (AMAA) framework for monocular 3D semantic scene completion using only a wearable RGB camera. The proposed framework addresses two major limitations in 2D-to-3D feature lifting: noise diffusion during back-projection and structural instability in multi-scale fusion. A parallel channel--spatial attention mechanism is introduced to recalibrate lifted features along semantic and geometric dimensions, while a hierarchical adaptive gating strategy regulates cross-scale information flow to preserve fine-grained structural details. Experiments on the NYUv2 benchmark demonstrate that AMAA achieves an overall mIoU of 27.88%. Crucially, it yields significant relative improvements of 16.9% for small objects and 10.4% for tables over the MonoScene baseline. Furthermore, a wearable prototype based on an NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX and a ZED~2i camera validates stable real-time performance in indoor environments, demonstrating the feasibility of deploying monocular 3D scene completion for assistive navigation.

Trajectory Generation with Endpoint Regulation and Momentum-Aware Dynamics for Visually Impaired Scenarios

Trajectory generation for visually impaired scenarios requires smooth and temporally consistent state in structured, low-speed dynamic environments. However, traditional jerk-based heuristic trajectory sampling with independent segment generation and conventional smoothness penalties often lead to unstable terminal behavior and state discontinuities under frequent regenerating. This paper proposes a trajectory generation approach that integrates endpoint regulation to stabilize terminal states within each segment and momentum-aware dynamics to regularize the evolution of velocity and acceleration for segment consistency. Endpoint regulation is incorporated into trajectory sampling to stabilize terminal behavior, while a momentum-aware dynamics enforces consistent velocity and acceleration evolution across consecutive trajectory segments. Experimental results demonstrate reduced acceleration peaks and lower jerk levels with decreased dispersion, smoother velocity and acceleration profiles, more stable endpoint distributions, and fewer infeasible trajectory candidates compared with a baseline planner.

RPIQ: Residual-Projected Multi-Collaboration Closed-Loop and Single Instance Quantization for Visually Impaired Assistance

Visually impaired users face significant challenges in daily information access and real-time environmental perception, and there is an urgent need for intelligent assistive systems with accurate recognition capabilities. Although large-scale models provide effective solutions for perception and reasoning, their practical deployment on assistive devices is severely constrained by excessive memory consumption and high inference costs. Moreover, existing quantization strategies often ignore inter-block error accumulation, leading to degraded model stability. To address these challenges, this study proposes a novel quantization framework -- Residual-Projected Multi-Collaboration Closed-Loop and Single Instance Quantization(RPIQ), whose quantization process adopts a multi-collaborative closed-loop compensation scheme based on Single Instance Calibration and Gauss-Seidel Iterative Quantization. Experiments on various types of large-scale models, including language models such as OPT, Qwen, and LLaMA, as well as vision-language models such as CogVLM2, demonstrate that RPIQ can compress models to 4-bit representation while significantly reducing peak memory consumption (approximately 60%-75% reduction compared to original full-precision models). The method maintains performance highly close to full-precision models across multiple language and visual tasks, and exhibits excellent recognition and reasoning capabilities in key applications such as text understanding and visual question answering in complex scenarios. While verifying the effectiveness of RPIQ for deployment in real assistive systems, this study also advances the computational efficiency and reliability of large models, enabling them to provide visually impaired users with the required information accurately and rapidly.

BioVessel-Net and RetinaMix: Unsupervised Retinal Vessel Segmentation from OCTA Images

Structural changes in retinal blood vessels are critical biomarkers for the onset and progression of glaucoma and other ocular diseases. However, current vessel segmentation approaches largely rely on supervised learning and extensive manual annotations, which are costly, error-prone, and difficult to obtain in optical coherence tomography angiography. Here we present BioVessel-Net, an unsupervised generative framework that integrates vessel biostatistics with adversarial refinement and a radius-guided segmentation strategy. Unlike pixel-based methods, BioVessel-Net directly models vascular structures with biostatistical coherence, achieving accurate and explainable vessel extraction without labeled data or high-performance computing. To support training and evaluation, we introduce RetinaMix, a new benchmark dataset of 2D and 3D OCTA images with high-resolution vessel details from diverse populations. Experimental results demonstrate that BioVessel-Net achieves near-perfect segmentation accuracy across RetinaMix and existing datasets, substantially outperforming state-of-the-art supervised and semi-supervised methods. Together, BioVessel-Net and RetinaMix provide a label-free, computationally efficient, and clinically interpretable solution for retinal vessel analysis, with broad potential for glaucoma monitoring, blood flow modeling, and progression prediction.

NPU-BOLT: A Dataset for Bolt Object Detection in Natural Scene Images

Bolt joints are very common and important in engineering structures. Due to extreme service environment and load factors, bolts often get loose or even disengaged. To real-time or timely detect the loosed or disengaged bolts is an urgent need in practical engineering, which is critical to keep structural safety and service life. In recent years, many bolt loosening detection methods using deep learning and machine learning techniques have been proposed and are attracting more and more attention. However, most of these studies use bolt images captured in laboratory for deep leaning model training. The images are obtained in a well-controlled light, distance, and view angle conditions. Also, the bolted structures are well designed experimental structures with brand new bolts and the bolts are exposed without any shelter nearby. It is noted that in practical engineering, the above well controlled lab conditions are not easy realized and the real bolt images often have blur edges, oblique perspective, partial occlusion and indistinguishable colors etc., which make the trained models obtained in laboratory conditions loss their accuracy or fails. Therefore, the aim of this study is to develop a dataset named NPU-BOLT for bolt object detection in natural scene images and open it to researchers for public use and further development. In the first version of the dataset, it contains 337 samples of bolt joints images mainly in the natural environment, with image data sizes ranging from 400*400 to 6000*4000, totaling approximately 1275 bolt targets. The bolt targets are annotated into four categories named blur bolt, bolt head, bolt nut and bolt side. The dataset is tested with advanced object detection models including yolov5, Faster-RCNN and CenterNet. The effectiveness of the dataset is validated.
