Abstract:3D human mesh recovery and 3D clothed human reconstruction are inherently related, yet they have long been studied in isolation, thereby overlooking the potential gains of joint optimization. To overcome this limitation, we propose to address these two tasks within a unified framework, which allows their mutual dependencies to be effectively exploited. Building on this idea, we propose MuNet, a mutualistic network for joint 3D human mesh recovery and 3D clothed human reconstruction from single images. First, we adopt 2-manifold graphs as a unified representation for all 3D models, enabling consistent modeling across 3D human mesh recovery and clothed human reconstruction. Second, we design an end-to-end graph convolutional network that progressively deforms an initial graph into a 3D human mesh and refines it into a detailed 3D clothed human model. Third, we introduce a mutualistic mechanism that allows reciprocal interaction between the two tasks {during training}, where 3D human mesh recovery provides guidance for 3D clothed human reconstruction, and reconstruction feedback refines the 3D human mesh recovery. We extensively evaluate MuNet on six benchmark datasets for 3D human mesh recovery and 3D clothed human reconstruction, including Human3.6M, 3DPW, MPI-INF-3DHP, THuman2.0, CAPE, and RenderPeople. Experimental results demonstrate that MuNet achieves state-of-the-art performance on both tasks across all datasets. The code of MuNet is released for research purposes at https://github.com/starVisionTeam/MuNet.
Abstract:Tool use extends large language models beyond parametric knowledge, but reliable execution requires balancing appropriate reasoning depth with strict structural validity. We approach this problem from a case-based perspective to present CAST, a case-driven framework that treats historical execution trajectories as structured cases. Instead of reusing raw exemplar outputs, CAST extracts case-derived signals to identify complexity profiles for estimating optimal reasoning strategies, alongside failure profiles to map likely structural breakdowns. The framework translates this knowledge into a fine-grained reward design and adaptive reasoning, enabling the model to autonomously internalize case-based strategies during reinforcement learning. Experiments on BFCLv2 and ToolBench demonstrate that CAST improves both schema-faithful execution and task-level tool-use success while reducing unnecessary deliberation. The approach achieves up to 5.85 percentage points gain in overall execution accuracy and reduces average reasoning length by 26%, significantly mitigating high-impact structural errors. Ultimately, this demonstrates how historical execution cases can provide reusable adaptation knowledge for calibrated tool use.
Abstract:Large language model (LLM) based multi-turn dialogue systems often struggle to track dependencies across non-adjacent turns, undermining both consistency and scalability. As conversations lengthen, essential information becomes sparse and is buried in irrelevant context, while processing the entire dialogue history incurs severe efficiency bottlenecks. Existing solutions either rely on high latency external memory or lose fine-grained details through iterative summarization. In this paper, we propose Self-Recall Thinking (SRT), a framework designed to address long-range contextual dependency and sparse informative signals in multi-turn dialogue. SRT identifies helpful historical turns and uses them to generate contextually appropriate responses, enabling the model to selectively recall and reason over context during inference. This process yields an endogenous reasoning process that integrates interpretable recall steps without external modules. SRT incorporates: (1) Dependency Construction: Generating and converting it into self-recall chains; (2)Capability Initialization: Training to enable reasoning chains with recall tokens capability; (3)Reasoning Improvement: Refining accuracy via verifiable rewards to optimize recall and reasoning for correct answers. Experiments on multiple datasets demonstrate that SRT improves F1 score by 4.7% and reduces end-to-end latency by 14.7% over prior methods, achieving a balance between reasoning latency and accuracy, and outperforming state-of-the-art baselines.
Abstract:With 3D data rapidly emerging as an important form of multimedia information, 3D human mesh recovery technology has also advanced accordingly. However, current methods mainly focus on handling humans wearing tight clothing and perform poorly when estimating body shapes and poses under diverse clothing, especially loose garments. To this end, we make two key insights: (1) tailoring clothing to fit the human body can mitigate the adverse impact of clothing on 3D human mesh recovery, and (2) utilizing human visual information from large foundational models can enhance the generalization ability of the estimation. Based on these insights, we propose ClothHMR, to accurately recover 3D meshes of humans in diverse clothing. ClothHMR primarily consists of two modules: clothing tailoring (CT) and FHVM-based mesh recovering (MR). The CT module employs body semantic estimation and body edge prediction to tailor the clothing, ensuring it fits the body silhouette. The MR module optimizes the initial parameters of the 3D human mesh by continuously aligning the intermediate representations of the 3D mesh with those inferred from the foundational human visual model (FHVM). ClothHMR can accurately recover 3D meshes of humans wearing diverse clothing, precisely estimating their body shapes and poses. Experimental results demonstrate that ClothHMR significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods across benchmark datasets and in-the-wild images. Additionally, a web application for online fashion and shopping powered by ClothHMR is developed, illustrating that ClothHMR can effectively serve real-world usage scenarios.
