Fast and Robust Deformable 3D Gaussian Splatting

3D Gaussian Splatting has demonstrated remarkable real-time rendering capabilities and superior visual quality in novel view synthesis for static scenes. Building upon these advantages, researchers have progressively extended 3D Gaussians to dynamic scene reconstruction. Deformation field-based methods have emerged as a promising approach among various techniques. These methods maintain 3D Gaussian attributes in a canonical field and employ the deformation field to transform this field across temporal sequences. Nevertheless, these approaches frequently encounter challenges such as suboptimal rendering speeds, significant dependence on initial point clouds, and vulnerability to local optima in dim scenes. To overcome these limitations, we present FRoG, an efficient and robust framework for high-quality dynamic scene reconstruction. FRoG integrates per-Gaussian embedding with a coarse-to-fine temporal embedding strategy, accelerating rendering through the early fusion of temporal embeddings. Moreover, to enhance robustness against sparse initializations, we introduce a novel depth- and error-guided sampling strategy. This strategy populates the canonical field with new 3D Gaussians at low-deviation initial positions, significantly reducing the optimization burden on the deformation field and improving detail reconstruction in both static and dynamic regions. Furthermore, by modulating opacity variations, we mitigate the local optima problem in dim scenes, improving color fidelity. Comprehensive experimental results validate that our method achieves accelerated rendering speeds while maintaining state-of-the-art visual quality.

SpiralDiff: Spiral Diffusion with LoRA for RGB-to-RAW Conversion Across Cameras

RAW images preserve superior fidelity and rich scene information compared to RGB, making them essential for tasks in challenging imaging conditions. To alleviate the high cost of data collection, recent RGB-to-RAW conversion methods aim to synthesize RAW images from RGB. However, they overlook two key challenges: (i) the reconstruction difficulty varies with pixel intensity, and (ii) multi-camera conversion requires camera-specific adaptation. To address these issues, we propose SpiralDiff, a diffusion-based framework tailored for RGB-to-RAW conversion with a signal-dependent noise weighting strategy that adapts reconstruction fidelity across intensity levels. In addition, we introduce CamLoRA, a camera-aware lightweight adaptation module that enables a unified model to adapt to different camera-specific ISP characteristics. Extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets demonstrate the superiority of SpiralDiff in RGB-to-RAW conversion quality and its downstream benefits in RAW-based object detection. Our code and model are available at https://github.com/Chuancy-TJU/SpiralDiff.

Structure-aware Prompt Adaptation from Seen to Unseen for Open-Vocabulary Compositional Zero-Shot Learning

The goal of Open-Vocabulary Compositional Zero-Shot Learning (OV-CZSL) is to recognize attribute-object compositions in the open-vocabulary setting, where compositions of both seen and unseen attributes and objects are evaluated. Recently, prompt tuning methods have demonstrated strong generalization capabilities in the closed setting, where only compositions of seen attributes and objects are evaluated, i.e., Compositional Zero-Shot Learning (CZSL). However, directly applying these methods to OV-CZSL may not be sufficient to generalize to unseen attributes, objects and their compositions, as it is limited to seen attributes and objects. Normally, when faced with unseen concepts, humans adopt analogies with seen concepts that have the similar semantics thereby inferring their meaning (e.g., "wet" and "damp", "shirt" and "jacket"). In this paper, we experimentally show that the distribution of semantically related attributes or objects tends to form consistent local structures in the embedding space. Based on the above structures, we propose Structure-aware Prompt Adaptation (SPA) method, which enables models to generalize from seen to unseen attributes and objects. Specifically, in the training stage, we design a Structure-aware Consistency Loss (SCL) that encourages the local structure's consistency of seen attributes and objects in each iteration. In the inference stage, we devise a Structure-guided Adaptation Strategy (SAS) that adaptively aligns the structures of unseen attributes and objects with those of trained seen attributes and objects with similar semantics. Notably, SPA is a plug-and-play method that can be seamlessly integrated into existing CZSL prompt tuning methods. Extensive experiments on OV-CZSL benchmarks demonstrate that SPA achieves competitive closed-set performance while significantly improving open-vocabulary results.

TikArt: Aperture-Guided Observation for Fine-Grained Visual Reasoning via Reinforcement Learning

We address fine-grained visual reasoning in multimodal large language models (MLLMs), where key evidence may reside in tiny objects, cluttered regions, or subtle markings that are lost under a single global image encoding. We introduce TikArt (Thinking Aperture), an aperture-guided agent that casts multi-step vision-language reasoning as a decision process over regions of interest. TikArt follows a Think-Aperture-Observe loop, alternating between language generation and two aperture actions: Zoom extracts rectangular crops, while Segment invokes SAM2 to obtain mask-based crops for irregular targets. After every action, the model must produce an explicit observation, turning local visual cues into persistent linguistic memory. Built on Qwen3-VL-8B, TikArt optimizes its reasoning policy with AGRPO, a GRPO-style reinforcement learning algorithm with a two-stage curriculum: it warms up segmentation actions and then jointly optimizes visual math, fine-grained VQA, and segmentation, using rewards that couple task success with purposeful aperture use. Experiments on V*, HR-Bench-4K/8K, MME-RealWorld-Lite, MMStar, RefCOCO, and ReasonSeg show consistent gains over the backbone and yield interpretable aperture trajectories for high-resolution reasoning.

Singpath-VL Technical Report

We present Singpath-VL, a vision-language large model, to fill the vacancy of AI assistant in cervical cytology. Recent advances in multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) have significantly propelled the field of computational pathology. However, their application in cytopathology, particularly cervical cytology, remains underexplored, primarily due to the scarcity of large-scale, high-quality annotated datasets. To bridge this gap, we first develop a novel three-stage pipeline to synthesize a million-scale image-description dataset. The pipeline leverages multiple general-purpose MLLMs as weak annotators, refines their outputs through consensus fusion and expert knowledge injection, and produces high-fidelity descriptions of cell morphology. Using this dataset, we then fine-tune the Qwen3-VL-4B model via a multi-stage strategy to create a specialized cytopathology MLLM. The resulting model, named Singpath-VL, demonstrates superior performance in fine-grained morphological perception and cell-level diagnostic classification. To advance the field, we will open-source a portion of the synthetic dataset and benchmark.

MPA: Multimodal Prototype Augmentation for Few-Shot Learning

Recently, few-shot learning (FSL) has become a popular task that aims to recognize new classes from only a few labeled examples and has been widely applied in fields such as natural science, remote sensing, and medical images. However, most existing methods focus only on the visual modality and compute prototypes directly from raw support images, which lack comprehensive and rich multimodal information. To address these limitations, we propose a novel Multimodal Prototype Augmentation FSL framework called MPA, including LLM-based Multi-Variant Semantic Enhancement (LMSE), Hierarchical Multi-View Augmentation (HMA), and an Adaptive Uncertain Class Absorber (AUCA). LMSE leverages large language models to generate diverse paraphrased category descriptions, enriching the support set with additional semantic cues. HMA exploits both natural and multi-view augmentations to enhance feature diversity (e.g., changes in viewing distance, camera angles, and lighting conditions). AUCA models uncertainty by introducing uncertain classes via interpolation and Gaussian sampling, effectively absorbing uncertain samples. Extensive experiments on four single-domain and six cross-domain FSL benchmarks demonstrate that MPA achieves superior performance compared to existing state-of-the-art methods across most settings. Notably, MPA surpasses the second-best method by 12.29% and 24.56% in the single-domain and cross-domain setting, respectively, in the 5-way 1-shot setting.

M$^2$-Miner: Multi-Agent Enhanced MCTS for Mobile GUI Agent Data Mining

Graphical User Interface (GUI) agent is pivotal to advancing intelligent human-computer interaction paradigms. Constructing powerful GUI agents necessitates the large-scale annotation of high-quality user-behavior trajectory data (i.e., intent-trajectory pairs) for training. However, manual annotation methods and current GUI agent data mining approaches typically face three critical challenges: high construction cost, poor data quality, and low data richness. To address these issues, we propose M$^2$-Miner, the first low-cost and automated mobile GUI agent data-mining framework based on Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS). For better data mining efficiency and quality, we present a collaborative multi-agent framework, comprising InferAgent, OrchestraAgent, and JudgeAgent for guidance, acceleration, and evaluation. To further enhance the efficiency of mining and enrich intent diversity, we design an intent recycling strategy to extract extra valuable interaction trajectories. Additionally, a progressive model-in-the-loop training strategy is introduced to improve the success rate of data mining. Extensive experiments have demonstrated that the GUI agent fine-tuned using our mined data achieves state-of-the-art performance on several commonly used mobile GUI benchmarks. Our work will be released to facilitate the community research.

VLA-RAIL: A Real-Time Asynchronous Inference Linker for VLA Models and Robots

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have achieved remarkable breakthroughs in robotics, with the action chunk playing a dominant role in these advances. Given the real-time and continuous nature of robotic motion control, the strategies for fusing a queue of successive action chunks have a profound impact on the overall performance of VLA models. Existing methods suffer from jitter, stalling, or even pauses in robotic action execution, which not only limits the achievable execution speed but also reduces the overall success rate of task completion. This paper introduces VLA-RAIL (A Real-Time Asynchronous Inference Linker), a novel framework designed to address these issues by conducting model inference and robot motion control asynchronously and guaranteeing smooth, continuous, and high-speed action execution. The core contributions of the paper are two fold: a Trajectory Smoother that effectively filters out the noise and jitter in the trajectory of one action chunk using polynomial fitting and a Chunk Fuser that seamlessly align the current executing trajectory and the newly arrived chunk, ensuring position, velocity, and acceleration continuity between two successive action chunks. We validate the effectiveness of VLA-RAIL on a benchmark of dynamic simulation tasks and several real-world manipulation tasks. Experimental results demonstrate that VLA-RAIL significantly reduces motion jitter, enhances execution speed, and improves task success rates, which will become a key infrastructure for the large-scale deployment of VLA models.

RLLaVA: An RL-central Framework for Language and Vision Assistants

We present an RL-central framework for Language and Vision Assistants (RLLaVA) with its formulation of Markov decision process (MDP). RLLaVA decouples RL algorithmic logic from model architecture and distributed execution, supporting researchers in implementing new RL algorithms with minimal code, and to plug in a broad family of RL methods and vision-language models (VLMs) while remaining agnostic to specific training and inference engines. RLLaVA makes resource-efficient training of 1B--7B models feasible on common GPUs; notably, 4B-scale models can be trained end-to-end with full-parameter updates on a single 24GB GPU. Experiments on multi-modal and agentic tasks demonstrate that RLLaVA has task extensibility, and the models trained with it consistently improve performance over base models, competitive with other specially engineered RL frameworks. The code is available at https://github.com/TinyLoopX/RLLaVA.

Wavelet Enhanced Adaptive Frequency Filter for Sequential Recommendation

Sequential recommendation has garnered significant attention for its ability to capture dynamic preferences by mining users' historical interaction data. Given that users' complex and intertwined periodic preferences are difficult to disentangle in the time domain, recent research is exploring frequency domain analysis to identify these hidden patterns. However, current frequency-domain-based methods suffer from two key limitations: (i) They primarily employ static filters with fixed characteristics, overlooking the personalized nature of behavioral patterns; (ii) While the global discrete Fourier transform excels at modeling long-range dependencies, it can blur non-stationary signals and short-term fluctuations. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel method called Wavelet Enhanced Adaptive Frequency Filter for Sequential Recommendation. Specifically, it consists of two vital modules: dynamic frequency-domain filtering and wavelet feature enhancement. The former is used to dynamically adjust filtering operations based on behavioral sequences to extract personalized global information, and the latter integrates wavelet transform to reconstruct sequences, enhancing blurred non-stationary signals and short-term fluctuations. Finally, these two modules work to achieve comprehensive performance and efficiency optimization in long sequential recommendation scenarios. Extensive experiments on four widely-used benchmark datasets demonstrate the superiority of our work.
