S$^3$Geo: Structure-Semantic Synergistic Learning for Cross-View Geo-Localization

Cross-view geo-localization (CVGL) aims to estimate geographic locations by matching images captured from different viewpoints, such as drone and satellite views. Existing methods mainly rely on visual representations, but often fail to jointly model fine-grained structural correspondences and semantic priors, making them prone to confusion between visually similar but semantically different regions, and thus limiting robustness under large viewpoint variations. To address these challenges, we propose \textbf{S$^3$Geo}, a structure-semantic synergistic learning framework for cross-view matching. Specifically, we first introduce a Decoupled Query Pooling (DQP) module to extract a compact set of region-aware features from dense tokens, enabling explicit modeling of local structural patterns. We then design a query-level contrastive learning scheme with an optimal transport (OT)-based formulation to establish soft correspondences under cross-view spatial misalignment. Furthermore, we incorporate a Semantic Knowledge Distillation (SKD) strategy from a frozen CLIP teacher to transfer semantic priors and relational structures, thereby improving discrimination on hard negatives. By operating synergistically, the semantic priors provide robust contextual filtering, which guides the structural module to establish precise spatial alignments. Experiments on the University-1652 and SUES-200 datasets demonstrate that \textbf{S$^3$Geo} consistently outperforms state-of-the-art approaches without increasing inference complexity, validating the effectiveness of jointly modeling structural and semantic information for CVGL.

CAMEO: A Conditional and Quality-Aware Multi-Agent Image Editing Orchestrator

Conditional image editing aims to modify a source image according to textual prompts and optional reference guidance. Such editing is crucial in scenarios requiring strict structural control (i.e., anomaly insertion in driving scenes and complex human pose transformation). Despite recent advances in large-scale editing models (i.e., Seedream, Nano Banana, etc), most approaches rely on single-step generation. This paradigm often lacks explicit quality control, may introduce excessive deviation from the original image, and frequently produces structural artifacts or environment-inconsistent modifications, typically requiring manual prompt tuning to achieve acceptable results. We propose \textbf{CAMEO}, a structured multi-agent framework that reformulates conditional editing as a quality-aware, feedback-driven process rather than a one-shot generation task. CAMEO decomposes editing into coordinated stages of planning, structured prompting, hypothesis generation, and adaptive reference grounding, where external guidance is invoked only when task complexity requires it. To overcome the lack of intrinsic quality control in existing methods, evaluation is embedded directly within the editing loop. Intermediate results are iteratively refined through structured feedback, forming a closed-loop process that progressively corrects structural and contextual inconsistencies. We evaluate CAMEO on anomaly insertion and human pose switching tasks. Across multiple strong editing backbones and independent evaluation models, CAMEO consistently achieves 20\% more win rate on average compared to multiple state-of-the-art models, demonstrating improved robustness, controllability, and structural reliability in conditional image editing.
