SpaceEra++: A Unified Framework Towards 3D Spatial Reasoning in Video

Visual-spatial understanding, defined as the ability to infer object relationships and scene layouts from visual inputs, is fundamental to downstream tasks such as robotic navigation and embodied interaction. However, pre-trained vision-language models (VLMs) remain constrained by spatial uncertainty stemming from inherently 2D observations and by the scarcity of data for 3D spatial understanding. To address these limitations, we proposed a novel framework, SpaceEra, in the NeurIPS 2025 Spotlight paper. Although it achieved significant performance gains, we further observed that its effectiveness is hindered by insufficient input from scanning videos and weak reasoning constraints. To tackle these newly emerged challenges, we extend the original framework into a comprehensive system, termed SpaceEra++, which spans data construction, model design, training optimization, and prompting inference. Specifically, to alleviate input insufficiency, we introduce ScenePick, a frame sampling strategy that balances spatial coverage with object semantics to produce compact yet comprehensive scene representations. In addition, to enhance spatial reasoning, we develop SpaceAlign, which enforces pairwise object constraints by jointly exploiting absolute coordinates and relative spatial relations, thereby aligning optimization with spatial accuracy. Extensive experiments across multiple benchmarks demonstrate consistent improvements over strong baselines, while ablation studies validate both the individual and joint contributions of each component, and further analyses provide guidance for future research.

Technical Report of RoboSpatial Challenge at CVPR 2026: Selective Reasoning Activation and Reference-Frame Disambiguation for Embodied Spatial Reasoning

Vision-language models achieve strong general perception but often struggle with the spatial reasoning required for embodied tasks. We present RoboSpatialBrain, our submission to the RoboSpatial Challenge at the Embodied Reasoning in Action Workshop, CVPR 2026, built on RoboBrain2.5-8B-NV. RoboSpatialBrain combines two training-free, inference-time mechanisms: a forced <think> prefix activation strategy paired with a task-specific post-prompt that elicits deliberate reasoning on context and compatibility tasks, and an explicit reference-frame redirection pipeline that resolves camera-centric and object-centric ambiguity for context tasks. We additionally explore fine-tuning RoboBrain2.5 on compatibility data and present a detailed analysis of its interaction with prompting. RoboSpatialBrain achieved first place in the RoboSpatial Challenge, with an overall success rate of 80.9\% on RoboSpatial-Home.

SpatialUAV: Benchmarking Spatial Intelligence for Low-Altitude UAV Perception, Collaboration, and Motion

Spatial intelligence is essential for low-altitude unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) perception, collaboration, and navigation. However, existing UAV benchmarks often emphasize image-level recognition, single-view understanding, or narrow answer formats, leaving 3D spatial inference, multi-view collaboration, scene dynamics, and diverse task formulations insufficiently evaluated. To address these gaps, we introduce SpatialUAV, a real low-altitude UAV benchmark comprising 4,331 curated instances across 14 fine-grained task types, covering semantic discrimination, spatial relation, aerial--aerial collaboration, aerial--ground collaboration, and motion understanding. SpatialUAV organizes all samples into a unified visual-input--question--answer schema, while supporting seven input configurations and nine answer formats, including option labels, region identifiers, geometric values, cross-view correspondences, and free-form motion descriptions. To ensure reliable and grounded evaluation, our data construction pipeline integrates detector-assisted regions, depth supervision, metadata-derived rules, extensive manual annotation, blind filtering, and multi-turn human validation, together with task-specific metrics for heterogeneous outputs. Evaluating representative vision-language models across three categories, we show that current models remain far from human-level performance, with pronounced bottlenecks in cross-view association, structured grounding, geometric reasoning, and temporal viewpoint understanding. These results offer empirical guidance for advancing low-altitude UAV spatial intelligence. Code and data are available at https://github.com/Hyu-Zhang/SpatialUAV.

Efficient Visual Pointing for Embodied AI:Agent-Driven Data Synthesis, Cross-Block Attention, and Iterative Correction

Visual pointing maps a language instruction to pixel co ordinates, a core skill for embodied AI. We describe our PointArena 2026 solution, which achieves 77.2% overall accuracy and ranks second on the benchmark. The ap proach targets three failure modes. First, agent-driven syn thesis builds large semantic and anchor-relative candidate pools; the server inventory contains 55,372 processed out puts, 53,772 de-duplicated sample IDs, and 37,574 train able completed or accepted rows. Second, a determinis tic steerable-data pipeline creates a verified 10,000-sample main set, plus reserve samples, using masks, templates, and path verification. Third, two model-side modules address complementary errors: AttnRes adds gated cross-block at tention for steerability, while ABC correction encodes per turbed coordinates with visual features for general coordi nate grounding. Category-aware routing combines comple mentary specialists; local validation used to select experts records 93.9% Affordance, 82.6% Spatial Relation, 78.2% Reasoning, 70.4% Counting, and 63.0% Steerability.

StructSplat: Generalizable 3D Gaussian Splatting from Uncalibrated Sparse Views

We present StructSplat, a feed-forward and generalizable 3D Gaussian reconstruction framework that operates directly on uncalibrated images without requiring camera parameters. Existing methods either rely on per-scene optimization or assume known camera poses, and often entangle geometry and appearance within a unified backbone, limiting reconstruction fidelity and generalization. Our key idea is to adopt a structured representation that organizes geometry, semantic, and texture cues with explicit roles in the reconstruction process. Specifically, we introduce a pixel-aligned feature injection mechanism to enable accurate texture modeling from 2D observations, incorporate semantic-aware priors to improve global consistency, and design a camera alignment strategy to prevent information leakage and improve generalization. Experiments show that our method significantly outperforms prior approaches on challenging benchmarks. On DL3DV, our method achieves 28.045 PSNR, surpassing AnySplat (22.377) by +5.67 dB. In cross-dataset evaluation, our method achieves +1.94 dB over AnySplat on ACID and +1.72 dB on RealEstate10K.

Navigating User Behavior toward Personalized Multimodal Generation

Modern AIGC pipelines deliver high-fidelity images and videos but presuppose a well-formed creation instruction, while end users rarely articulate visual details, leaving generators misaligned with user demand. We study personalized content generation, which turns a user's interaction history into an executable instruction for downstream synthesis, and identify two obstacles: behavior must be encoded in a form legible to language reasoning, and the model must acquire instruction-writing skill absent from both pretraining and behavior data. We propose NaviGen, which represents each item with a dual identifier coupling a collaborative code and a textual code as a behavioral substrate and a semantic bridge in one token stream. On this representation, a two-stage SFT+RL pipeline first distills preference reasoning and instruction writing from evolutionarily searched supervision, then aligns generation with user intent through hierarchical and self-consistent rewards. Experiments across product, game, and short-video domains show that NaviGen improves personalized image and video generation, strengthens next-item prediction, and yields more specific, relevant, and visually generatable instructions. Our code is released at: https://github.com/iLearn-Lab/NaviGen.

DramaDirector: Geometry-Guided Short Drama Generation

Short dramas, with their rapid shot rhythms, dialogue-driven focus shifts, and demanding cinematographic grounding, pose challenges that prompt-level or text-only video generation pipelines struggle to meet. We study plot-to-short-drama generation, where a global plot and local context are transformed into visually grounded multi-shot videos. We propose DramaDirector, a geometry-grounded framework that lets the planner borrow cinematographic geometry from a gallery of real short-drama shots indexed by depth and pose. DramaDirector decouples each shot into static visual and dynamic narrative conditions, trains the planner with schema-constrained SFT and GRPO under a learned text-visual alignment reward, and retrieves depth-pose references to guide first-frame generation and image-to-video synthesis. We also introduce DramaBoard, a benchmark built from 35 live-action dramas, 2.8K episodes, and 81K shots, with structured storyboards and multi-dimensional evaluation protocols. Experiments show that DramaDirector improves over representative multi-agent and video generation baselines on faithfulness, consistency, and controllability. Our code is released at: https://github.com/iLearn-Lab/DramaDirector

TailorMind: Towards Preference-Aligned Multimodal Content Generation

Personalized content systems depend on available UGC and struggle when suitable content is absent, delayed, or costly to create. Although multimodal generators can synthesize content on demand, how to translate behavioral traces into generation-ready preferences remains underexplored. We study personalized multimodal content generation: creating user-tailored multimodal content without existing item pools or waiting for matching UGC. We propose TailorMind, linking collaborative preference modeling with controllable multimodal generation. TailorMind enriches sparse user histories via hypergraph collaborative filtering and optimizes textual profiles with ranking-error feedback and textual gradient descent. Retrieval-augmented style control grounds outputs in authentic UGC patterns, while cross-modal cohesion reflection reduces semantic drift. We construct TailorBench, a benchmark from three mainstream platforms evaluated along five dimensions: coherence, novelty, aesthetic, hallucination, profiling. Experiments show that TailorMind achieves competitive or stronger coherence, improves novelty and aesthetic quality over representative generation baselines and ground-truth UGC, demonstrating advantages over retrieving available content or comparable UGC, while achieving up to 29% Recall gains in reranking. Our code is released at: https://github.com/iLearn-Lab/TailorMind.

Learning New Tasks via Reusable Skills: Skill-Compositional Experts for Embodied Continual Learning

Embodied Continual Learning (ECL) aims to enable robots to continually acquire new manipulation tasks while retaining previously learned behaviors under closed-loop control. Compared with conventional continual learning, ECL suffers from more severe catastrophic forgetting. Feature drift accumulated under closed-loop control progressively propagates through sequential decision-making, leading to degradation of previously learned behaviors. A key challenge in ECL lies in structured skill reuse across continually evolving tasks, since existing methods primarily focus on skill learning without explicitly organizing them for coherent task execution. To address this issue, we propose SCE, a Skill-Compositional Experts framework for ECL. SCE builds a skill base via Compositional Skill Grounding (CSG), which decomposes task demonstrations into reusable skills. Based on this, Dual Execution-and-Transition Experts (DETE) enable new task learning through skill composition, where one branch ensures skill execution and the other supports transitions between skills for coherent behavior. Experiments on LIBERO benchmarks and real-world manipulation tasks demonstrate that SCE consistently improves retention and overall task performance. Further feature drift analyses and ablation studies verify the effectiveness of our method. Project website: https://eqcy.github.io/sce/.

ChartLens: A Dual-Branch Framework for Chart Data Correction and Factual Summary Refinement

In this report, we present our champion solution for the DataMFM Challenge Track 2: Chart Understanding. This track requires models to recover structured chart data and generate faithful natural-language summaries from chart images. To address the complementary requirements of accurate data extraction and factual narration, we propose ChartLens, a dual-branch framework for chart data correction and summary refinement. ChartLens consists of two key modules: Structure-Aware CSV Verification and Correction (SAVC) and Text-Retention-Guided Summary Refinement (TRSR). SAVC improves the reliability of structured data extraction through verification and correction, while TRSR enhances summary generation by preserving critical textual and numerical evidence from charts. By combining model adaptation, correction-based generation, and OCR-assisted evidence grounding, ChartLens improves both structured data recovery and summary factuality. On the test set, our final system achieves an overall score of 69.10 and ranks first in Track 2, demonstrating its effectiveness for accurate chart understanding. Our code will be released at: https://github.com/iLearn-Lab/CVPRW26-ChartLens.
