Shape-Prior-Based Point Cloud Completion for Single-Stage Fully Sparse 3D Object Detection

Single-stage fully sparse 3D object detectors rely on point clouds data to detect objects in autonomous driving scenarios. However, the sparsity and incompleteness of point clouds significantly limit the performance of 3D object detection. To address this issue, this paper proposes a point clouds completion method specifically designed for single-stage fully sparse detectors. The entire shape-prior-based completion process consists of two consecutive steps. In the first step, we design a novel Instance Selection module, which is capable of identifying point clouds corresponding to foreground objects even when the baseline model does not generate proposals, while effectively ignoring the point clouds of background regions. In the second step, we introduce a novel Alignment-Based Point Completion module, which aligns the point clouds of foreground objects with prototypes in terms of both their centers and orientations. Subsequently, points are selected from the prototype to fill in the missing parts of the foreground object. We evaluated our method on two single-stage fully sparse detectors using the KITTI dataset. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method significantly improves the detection performance, confirming its effectiveness and generalizability.

The Sword, Shield, and Achilles' Heel: Characterizing the Linguistic Inductive Bias of Large Language Models for Spatial Reasoning in Navigation Planning

Large Language Model (LLM)-based navigation systems commonly construct explicit spatial representations (e.g., topological graphs, semantic raster maps) and translate them into textual descriptions as LLMs' inputs. However, the linguistic structures of such text-based spatial representations and the choices of contextual features (e.g., topology, geometry) they contain are often treated as neutral engineering decisions rather than key factors that shape LLMs' behavior. To fill the gap, we propose a dual-interventional framework that disentangles linguistic structures from different contextual cues to evaluate the linguistic inductive bias of LLMs for navigation planning. In the framework, representation intervention varies the linguistic format and the degree of linguistic compression, clarifying when linguistic representations support or inhibit navigation planning. Context intervention, combined with contextual feature combination and conflict probing, explicitly clarifies the preferences and weaknesses of LLMs when processing different contextual cues. Experiments across diverse spatial reasoning tasks and multiple model scales reveal a consistent pattern: topological information is a sturdy shield and the backbone of robust planning; linguistic format is a double-edged sword whose effect depends on model size, task demands, and the compression level; and semantic information is a fatal Achilles' heel -- incorrect semantic cues can systematically derail the planning process. Overall, our study shows that effective text-based spatial representations in LLM-based navigation should preserve topological integrity, calibrate representational compression to model capacity, and ensure semantic correctness, rather than simply adopting a single representation.

Rethinking Stepwise Model Routing: A Cost-Efficient Table Reasoning Perspective

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) achieve strong performance on table reasoning tasks but incur substantial inference cost due to long reasoning traces. Stepwise model routing mitigates this issue by dynamically assigning reasoning steps to smaller or larger models. However, stepwise model routing for table reasoning remains underexplored. Through empirical analysis, we find that reasoning steps involving tables contain two types of tokens with distinct uncertainty distributions: table tokens grounded in table structure, such as cell values and headers, and text tokens representing surrounding natural-language reasoning. The uncertainty of both token types is correlated with the risk that the model makes an error in the next reasoning step. However, existing methods fail to model them separately, leading to suboptimal routing decisions. To address this, we propose EcoTab, a table-aware stepwise routing framework for efficient table reasoning. At each reasoning step, EcoTab separately estimates the uncertainties of table tokens and text tokens, maps them to next-step failure risks for the small model, and combines the two risks for routing. Experiments on multiple table reasoning benchmarks show that EcoTab consistently outperforms strong baselines and achieves a better balance between accuracy and efficiency.

F-RNG: Feed-Forward Relightable Neural Gaussians

Capturing relightable 3D assets from real-world objects is a widely researched problem. Several per-scene optimization-based methods, based on 3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS), support relighting; however, they usually require dense input views, and their overfitting nature makes it difficult to generalize across scenes. Unlike per-scene optimization methods, generalized feed-forward models can directly reconstruct Gaussians from sparse input views. However, the resulting assets have baked-in illumination and cannot be easily used for relighting. In this paper, we present F-RNG, a feed-forward framework that directly generates relightable 3DGS assets from sparse-view inputs. Training such a model from scratch can require massive data and computing resources, and it is especially challenging to generate relightable assets in a feed-forward manner with acceptable cost. We develop F-RNG upon an existing large reconstruction model (LRM) to extract relightable representations, while also utilizing priors from an intrinsic decomposition model (IDM). Specifically, we first introduce a latent-interpolated fine-grained geometry synthesis to enhance the LRM's geometry representation. Second, we propose a prior-guided relightable appearance distillation to extract relightable neural representations by incorporating IDM priors. Finally, a universal neural renderer enables flexible and high-fidelity relighting. F-RNG requires neither re-training nor fine-tuning of the underlying LRMs, thus can automatically benefit from better LRMs and IDMs in the future. With only small networks that can be trained with affordable data and computational resources, F-RNG avoids the repetitive inference of large models under different light conditions. By comparison to the state-of-the-art LRM-based relighting method, F-RNG achieves ~25x faster relighting, as well as superior quality (~+2.0 dB).

MIRA: Mid-training Rubric Anchoring for Source-Aware Data Selection

Mid-training has become an important stage in modern LLM development, using large-scale curated mixtures to strengthen capabilities before final post-training. Its data selection problem is distinct: the data are optimized under a pretraining-style objective at near-pretraining scale, but are curated toward downstream capabilities and drawn from heterogeneous sources with different formats and training roles. As a result, effective selection requires both scalability and source-adaptive semantic criteria. Existing model-based methods scale well, but provide only implicit quality signals. Semantic selection methods offer stronger judgments, but usually assume fixed rubrics or standardized data formats. To address this mismatch, we propose MIRA, a source-aware filtering framework based on self-anchored rubric discovery. The key idea is to make rubric construction part of data selection: MIRA first discovers what should be evaluated for each source group, then distills those judgments into scalable student scorers for full-corpus filtering. On code-oriented mid-training with 21 sources and 5 source groups, MIRA outperforms selection baselines across nine code benchmarks and matches the full-corpus run while using only half the tokens.

SRUG: Shadow-Guided Relightable Urban Scene with Generation Model

Creating relightable urban scenes from images or videos is widely useful but highly ill-posed. Urban environments are typically unbounded and extend beyond the visible regions. As a result, many portions of the scene remain unobserved, yet these invisible regions can cast shadows onto visible areas. Reasonably modeling shadows cast by such invisible regions is challenging and poses a significant obstacle to creating relightable urban scenes. At the same time, sparse input views and complex illumination conditions further complicate relighting, as they introduce severe ambiguities in material decomposition. In this paper, we propose Shadow-guided Relightable Urban Scene with Generation model (SRUG), a novel framework designed to address relighting challenges in urban scenes. SRUG leverages shadows to guide a 3D completion model for recovering the geometry of invisible regions, promoting the synthesis of physically reasonable shadows. In addition, SRUG employs an iterative material decomposition scheme that applies the large material model (LMM) to provide material supervision and iteratively decompose the scene's material properties, enabling robust material decomposition. Building upon these components, we introduce a physically-based lighting model that captures the complex illumination of urban scenes and supports reliable relighting. Extensive quantitative evaluations and visual comparisons demonstrate that our method outperforms existing approaches in both novel view synthesis and relighting tasks.

Rubric-Guided Process Reward for Stepwise Model Routing

Stepwise model routing improves the efficiency of Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) by assigning each reasoning step to a suitable model. Recent methods formulate routing as a sequential decision process and train the router with reinforcement learning. However, although they model routing as a process, they still supervise the router with outcome rewards. Such rewards only reflect final answer correctness and fail to evaluate intermediate routing decisions, which can weaken performance and generalization. To address this gap, we propose RoRo, a rubric-guided process reward framework for stepwise model routing. RoRo first collects diverse routing trajectories and constructs preference pairs based on outcome, cost, and process quality. It then trains a Rubricor to generate a query-specific evaluation rubric and a Judge to score routing trajectories under this rubric through alternating optimization. The resulting process rewards are combined with outcome rewards to optimize the routing policy via GRPO. Experiments on five reasoning benchmarks under both same-family and cross-family settings show that RoRo consistently outperforms strong baselines and achieves better accuracy and cost trade-offs.

RW-TTT: Batched Serving for Request-Owned Test-Time Training State

Test-time training (TTT) adapts an LLM during generation by reading and updating request-owned state, such as fast weights, low-rank deltas, or streaming learner state. This breaks batched LLM serving, which assumes shared static weights: serial execution is correct but slow, while naive batching can corrupt request state. We formulate this problem as read-write TTT serving and present RW-TTT , which tags each decode step with its owner, version, and READ/WRITE effect, batches only compatible phases, and commits updates only to the owner. On one GPU with eight fast-weight InPlace-TTT streams, RW-TTT reaches 274.61 aggregate tok/s, 9.31x over sequential serving and 3.44x over per-stream replicas under the same memory budget. It preserves behavior on RULER, a long-context benchmark, and passes owner/version checks.

HTMLCure: Turning Browser Experience into State Guided Repair for Interactive HTML

LLMs can now produce full HTML pages, but many of those pages are only superficially correct: they render once, then fail under scroll, hover, click, resize, or gameplay. Evaluation from screenshots can miss these failures, and filtering discards many pages that are still repairable. We introduce HTMLCure, a browser experience framework that evaluates HTML after the system has interacted with it. The evaluator executes the page across viewports and interaction states, records deterministic browser evidence, and gives the VLM curated keyframes from the executed trajectory rather than isolated screenshots. The same state signal drives a closed loop repair engine: HTMLCure diagnoses the current page, chooses a state specific repair family, runs each candidate again, and exports quality cleared pages for SFT. On a 97K prompt corpus, this expands the directly usable seed into a candidate pool of 63703 quality cleared pages, from which we construct the final refined SFT set of 40K pages. Under the same backbone and training recipe, HTMLCure-27B-Refined reaches 50.6 on HTMLBench-400 with 45.2% deterministic test case pass, placing it in the same performance band as strong reference rows such as Kimi-K2.6 and GPT-5.4. On the released MiniAppBench validation split, it reaches 81.2 average, improving raw 27B SFT by 15.3 points and approaching the level of strong reference systems.

VINS-120K: Ultra High-Resolution Image Editing with A Large-Scale Dataset

Directly editing ultra-high-resolution (UHR) images is valuable but underexplored, primarily due to the lack of high-quality data and the challenge in modeling high-frequency texture details. We introduce VINS-120K, the first large-scale dataset for instruction-based UHR image editing, comprising 120K carefully curated triplets of instruction, input image, and edited image. Each image exceeds 4K resolution ($\geq$4096 $\times$ 4096) and is filtered through a rigorous multi-stage pipeline to ensure visual quality, instruction alignment, and aesthetic fidelity. Built on VINS-120K, we further develop a high-frequency-aware post-adaptation strategy to extend pretrained non-high-resolution models to the UHR regime. We also present VINS-4KEval, a benchmark covering diverse editing types, to facilitate consistent evaluation in UHR settings. Experiments confirm that our work improves fine-grained detail synthesis and texture realism in UHR image editing.
