Abstract:While Text-to-Image (T2I) diffusion models have achieved remarkable success, precise spatial and orientational control in multi-object scenes remains a persistent challenge. Existing methods either rely on computationally expensive dense 3D maps or suffer from severe attribute leakage and "cut-and-paste" artifacts. To address these limitations, we propose PoseAdapter, a lightweight framework for high-fidelity 2.5D controllable image generation. Instead of dense spatial maps, it establishes precise spatial-angular anchors using an efficient condition layout: individual object captions, 2D bounding boxes, and 3D angles. To resolve the generative trade-off between strict instance isolation and global coherence, we introduce a Context-Aware Dual-Stream Representation. By injecting local object tokens and relation-enriched scene tokens into the visual stream of modern MM-DiT architectures via parallel masked and unmasked pathways, PoseAdapter eliminates attribute leakage while preserving natural inter-object relationships and scene-level coherence. To support this paradigm, we construct OrientLayout, a high-quality dataset featuring standardized 2.5D annotations and instance-level decoupled semantics. Extensive experiments demonstrate that PoseAdapter outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in spatial accuracy, orientational precision, and multi-object visual fidelity. Code and dataset will be available at https://github.com/cyf23/PoseAdapter.
Abstract:Generative semantic communication receivers deliver high perceptual quality but suffer from prohibitive decoding latency. This bottleneck arises because diffusion receivers rely on stochastic iterative decoding, while existing flow matching receivers employ independent endpoint coupling that ignores the physical source--channel link, yielding unnecessarily long and curved sampling trajectories. In this paper, we reformulate receiver-side recovery as a realization-coupled bridge flow matching problem under explicit bandwidth and power constraints. Specifically, we propose Realization-Coupled Bridge Flow Matching (RC-BFM), where the decoder initializes from a channel-induced semantic state rather than isotropic noise. Crucially, training pairs are linked via a realization-coupled entropic optimal transport (RC-OT) plan that preserves the physical channel realization of each transmission while maintaining robustness to stochastic fading. Furthermore, we identify independent coupling as the fundamental source of a conditional train--test distribution shift in conditional flow matching-based receivers, and derive an end-to-end distortion bound whose discretization error decays as \(O(K^{-2})\). Experiments on CIFAR-10 and FFHQ-64\(\times\)64 over AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels demonstrate that RC-BFM achieves a superior fidelity--perception trade-off, reducing decoding latency by over 10\(\times\) compared to diffusion-based receivers.
Abstract:We propose RSTA, a domain-generalized semantic communication framework enabling source-free V2X collaborative perception under both observation-domain shift and unseen wireless channel conditions. In V2X, received semantic tokens suffer coupled degradation from pre-transmission domain drift and in-transit channel corruption; existing methods address only one source, leaving adaptation misled by tokens that are simultaneously off-domain and physically degraded. RSTA trains a pre-deployment semantic encoder for transmission stability via cross-domain prototype alignment and cross-channel gradient consistency, and updates a lightweight in-deployment decoder adapter through reliability-gated entropy minimization that restricts gradients to tokens ranked high in both semantic relevance and channel fidelity. A theoretical task robustness decomposition links each loss term to a distinct degradation source, grounding each algorithmic component in a measurable error mode. Trained on AWGN and tested on unseen Rayleigh fading, RSTA achieves +7.2 AP@0.7 over pre-deployment domain generalization on cross-weather tasks and +5.5 on cross-dataset tasks across four V2X benchmarks, updating only 0.21\% of parameters in-deployment with zero inter-agent synchronization overhead.
Abstract:Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown strong performance on public medical benchmarks, yet existing evaluations often remain weak proxies for clinical use, relying on isolated inputs and simplified recognition-style tasks. We introduce CardioLens, a leakage-resistant evaluation testbed for multi-sequence Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR), constructed from private hospital archives through a rigorous report-to-QA construction and verification pipeline. CardioLens contains 473,896 slices and 13,494 verified QA pairs across 4D Cine, LGE, perfusion, and T2-weighted imaging, and evaluates three stages of CMR interpretation: image understanding, report generation, and disease diagnosis. Across 24 state-of-the-art MLLMs, CardioLens reveals a substantial clinical reality gap: models perform poorly overall, with performance degrading along the real CMR workflow. Confusion analysis further shows a category-collapse failure mode, where models default to frequent abnormal categories rather than distinguishing clinically distinct findings. To rule out MLLM-compatible input construction as the primary cause, we compare random, clinically motivated, and data-driven slice selection protocols under different slice budgets; performance changes only marginally, typically by about 1%. Explicit reasoning prompts also fail to rescue performance, often making models more conservative rather than improving visual evidence use. These results show that current MLLMs remain far from reliable CMR interpretation, where clinical decisions require integrating distributed evidence across sequences, views, and temporal phases. CardioLens provides a clinically grounded testbed for developing next-generation MLLMs toward real-world clinical deployment.
Abstract:3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) enables high-quality real-time 3D rendering but faces challenges in efficiently scaling to ultra-dense scenes and high-resolution due to computational bottlenecks that limit its use in latency-sensitive applications. Instead of optimizing the splatting pipeline itself, we propose \textbf{3DGS$^3$}, a unified post-rendering framework that jointly performs super sampling and frame interpolation through differentiable processing of low-resolution outputs to achieve both high-resolution and high-frame-rate rendering. Our \textbf{Gradient\- \-Aware Super Sampling (GASS)} module leverages the continuous differentiability of 3DGS to extract image gradients that guide a GRU-based refinement network to enable high-fidelity super sampling. Furthermore, a \textbf{Lightweight Temporal Frame Interpolation (LTFI)} module based on a compact U-Net-like backbone fuses temporal and differentiable spatial cues from consecutive frames to synthesize temporally coherent intermediate frames. Experiments on public datasets demonstrate that 3DGS$^3$ achieves superior rendering efficiency and visual quality when compared with state-of-the-art methods and remains compatible with existing 3DGS acceleration techniques. The code will be publicly released upon acceptance.
Abstract:Automated vehicles lack natural communication channels with other road users, making external Human-Machine Interfaces (eHMIs) essential for conveying intent and maintaining trust in shared environments. However, most eHMI studies rely on developer-crafted message-action pairs, which are difficult to adapt to diverse and dynamic traffic contexts. A promising alternative is to use Large Language Models (LLMs) as action designers that generate context-conditioned eHMI actions, yet such designers lack perceptual verification and typically depend on fixed prompts or costly human-annotated feedback for improvement. We present See2Refine, a human-free, closed-loop framework that uses vision-language model (VLM) perceptual evaluation as automated visual feedback to improve an LLM-based eHMI action designer. Given a driving context and a candidate eHMI action, the VLM evaluates the perceived appropriateness of the action, and this feedback is used to iteratively revise the designer's outputs, enabling systematic refinement without human supervision. We evaluate our framework across three eHMI modalities (lightbar, eyes, and arm) and multiple LLM model sizes. Across settings, our framework consistently outperforms prompt-only LLM designers and manually specified baselines in both VLM-based metrics and human-subject evaluations. Results further indicate that the improvements generalize across modalities and that VLM evaluations are well aligned with human preferences, supporting the robustness and effectiveness of See2Refine for scalable action design.
Abstract:While reasoning-enhanced large language models perform strongly on English medical tasks, a persistent multilingual gap remains, with substantially weaker reasoning in local languages, limiting equitable global medical deployment. To bridge this gap, we introduce Med-CoReasoner, a language-informed co-reasoning framework that elicits parallel English and local-language reasoning, abstracts them into structured concepts, and integrates local clinical knowledge into an English logical scaffold via concept-level alignment and retrieval. This design combines the structural robustness of English reasoning with the practice-grounded expertise encoded in local languages. To evaluate multilingual medical reasoning beyond multiple-choice settings, we construct MultiMed-X, a benchmark covering seven languages with expert-annotated long-form question answering and natural language inference tasks, comprising 350 instances per language. Experiments across three benchmarks show that Med-CoReasoner improves multilingual reasoning performance by an average of 5%, with particularly substantial gains in low-resource languages. Moreover, model distillation and expert evaluation analysis further confirm that Med-CoReasoner produces clinically sound and culturally grounded reasoning traces.
Abstract:Tibetan, one of the major low-resource languages in Asia, presents unique linguistic and sociocultural characteristics that pose both challenges and opportunities for AI research. Despite increasing interest in developing AI systems for underrepresented languages, Tibetan has received limited attention due to a lack of accessible data resources, standardized benchmarks, and dedicated tools. This paper provides a comprehensive survey of the current state of Tibetan AI in the AI domain, covering textual and speech data resources, NLP tasks, machine translation, speech recognition, and recent developments in LLMs. We systematically categorize existing datasets and tools, evaluate methods used across different tasks, and compare performance where possible. We also identify persistent bottlenecks such as data sparsity, orthographic variation, and the lack of unified evaluation metrics. Additionally, we discuss the potential of cross-lingual transfer, multi-modal learning, and community-driven resource creation. This survey aims to serve as a foundational reference for future work on Tibetan AI research and encourages collaborative efforts to build an inclusive and sustainable AI ecosystem for low-resource languages.




Abstract:The absence of explicit communication channels between automated vehicles (AVs) and other road users requires the use of external Human-Machine Interfaces (eHMIs) to convey messages effectively in uncertain scenarios. Currently, most eHMI studies employ predefined text messages and manually designed actions to perform these messages, which limits the real-world deployment of eHMIs, where adaptability in dynamic scenarios is essential. Given the generalizability and versatility of large language models (LLMs), they could potentially serve as automated action designers for the message-action design task. To validate this idea, we make three contributions: (1) We propose a pipeline that integrates LLMs and 3D renderers, using LLMs as action designers to generate executable actions for controlling eHMIs and rendering action clips. (2) We collect a user-rated Action-Design Scoring dataset comprising a total of 320 action sequences for eight intended messages and four representative eHMI modalities. The dataset validates that LLMs can translate intended messages into actions close to a human level, particularly for reasoning-enabled LLMs. (3) We introduce two automated raters, Action Reference Score (ARS) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs), to benchmark 18 LLMs, finding that the VLM aligns with human preferences yet varies across eHMI modalities.
Abstract:The rise of large language models has led to significant performance breakthroughs in named entity recognition (NER) for high-resource languages, yet there remains substantial room for improvement in low- and medium-resource languages. Existing multilingual NER methods face severe language interference during the multi-language adaptation process, manifested in feature conflicts between different languages and the competitive suppression of low-resource language features by high-resource languages. Although training a dedicated model for each language can mitigate such interference, it lacks scalability and incurs excessive computational costs in real-world applications. To address this issue, we propose RetrieveAll, a universal multilingual NER framework based on dynamic LoRA. The framework decouples task-specific features across languages and demonstrates efficient dynamic adaptability. Furthermore, we introduce a cross-granularity knowledge augmented method that fully exploits the intrinsic potential of the data without relying on external resources. By leveraging a hierarchical prompting mechanism to guide knowledge injection, this approach advances the paradigm from "prompt-guided inference" to "prompt-driven learning." Experimental results show that RetrieveAll outperforms existing baselines; on the PAN-X dataset, it achieves an average F1 improvement of 12.1 percent.
