Abstract:In clinical motor imagery brain-computer interface (MI-BCI) decoding, cross-day transferability and online operation remain two critical challenges. Hypergraphs can improve transferability by capturing higher-order sample relationships, yet existing hypergraph-based methods for online emotion recognition neglect the cross-day benefits of Riemannian geometry widely adopted in EEG transfer learning. To bridge this gap, we propose the Multi-feature Riemannian Hypergraph (MRieHy), a framework tailored for online test-time adaptation in MI-BCI decoding that leverages Riemannian geometry to strengthen cross-day transferability. MRieHy first computes Riemannian means of covariance matrices from cross-day training data to align multi-day distributions. It then constructs a hypergraph over covariance matrices using Riemannian distance, complemented by a second hypergraph over deep features built with cosine similarity. The two hypergraphs are fused via adaptively learned combination weights, jointly optimized with the label projection matrices. During online testing, MRieHy maintains a first-in-first-out buffer of recent samples, performs Riemannian alignment on the buffered data, and decodes with the learned hypergraph. Extensive experiments on a private four-class ECoG dataset and two public four-class EEG datasets validate that MRieHy achieves notable performance gains over state-of-the-art baselines.
Abstract:Automating industrial CAD design and manufacturing places distinctive demands on multimodal foundation models: the model must see engineering drawings and 3D geometry screenshots, write correct parametric-modelling scripts and Windows COM API code, and cover the full range from single parts to assemblies. General-purpose multimodal models fall short on these tasks, while single-task fine-tuning is too narrow to support the diverse calls that upper-layer agents issue. We build IndustryForge-27B on top of Qwen3.5-VL-27B by curating and integrating six industrial-CAD sub-corpora totalling $\sim$52k multimodal samples---CAD Visual QA (CAD-VQA), parametric CAD code (text2cadquery), assembly-level CAD code (text2cadquery-assembly), and three COM sub-corpora for Inventor / SolidWorks (com_2d / com_3d / com_assembly)---and training with a unified multi-task SFT recipe. Across four CAD-domain benchmarks IndustryForge-27B lifts the base model by $+33.65$~pp on average and outperforms the strong closed-source model GPT-5.4 on all four; across eleven general-capability benchmarks it retains, and slightly improves upon, the base model ($+1.56$~pp mean, no catastrophic forgetting). IndustryForge-27B will serve as the common substrate for downstream industrial-agent projects, providing a unified starting point for a full-stack industrial agent that spans from CAD design to industrial-software operation, from parts to assemblies, and from single-shot generation to closed-loop self-improvement.
Abstract:Although Video Large Language Models (Video LLMs) have shown strong performance in video understanding, their efficiency is still limited by the large number of visual tokens. Existing video token compression methods typically rely on frame-wise saliency or heuristic token merging, which can over-focus on locally salient regions and produce ambiguous fused features. To address these issues, we propose GeoTrace, a training-free spatiotemporal token compression framework that decomposes video evidence into exact skeleton tokens and traceable residual event tokens. Specifically, Contextual Farthest-Point Anchoring (CFPA) preserves salient, context-consistent, and high-coverage skeleton tokens, while Trajectory-Constrained Residual Condensation (TCRC) compresses residual tokens through one-to-one temporal trajectories and constrained near-manifold condensation, producing traceable event tokens with reduced ambiguity. We evaluate GeoTrace on four Video LLMs across four video understanding benchmarks, and the results demonstrate its effectiveness and generalization across different model architectures and scenarios. On LLaVA-OneVision, with only 10\% visual tokens retained, GeoTrace achieves a \(12.99\times\) TFLOPs reduction while preserving 99.1\% of the vanilla performance. Overall, GeoTrace offers a compact and traceable token representation for efficient and robust Video LLM inference.

Abstract:The future of World Models depends not only on scaling model capability, but also on scaling practicality and inference efficiency. High-frame-rate inference enables responsive perception, planning, and control in real-world autonomous systems. To this end, we present MoWorld, a cost-effective yet high-performance Flash World Model with an end-to-end framework spanning data generation, pre-training, distillation, and efficient inference, enabling up to 50 FPS real-time interaction with cinematic visual quality without the need of high-end GPUs. To enable large-scale real-world deployment, MoWorld jointly optimizes model capability and cost throughout the entire development pipeline. Specifically, unlike existing approaches that primarily rely on large-scale video corpora, MoWorld is built upon a scalable 3D-native data engine accumulated from our large-scale 3D vision and generative modeling pipeline, enabling the efficient construction of geometrically consistent training data across diverse real-world and synthetic environments. Based on this foundation, a curriculum cross-frame pre-training strategy for stable and scalable World Model learning, an efficient denoising-step distillation algorithm to reduce diffusion training cost, and a mixed-precision parallel inference framework for low-cost real-time deployment. MoWorld is the first real-time interactive World Model built on the Neural Processing Unit (NPU) and can achieves up to 50 FPS in such the devices, enabling practical and efficient deployment at scale. Comprehensive evaluations demonstrate that MoWorld achieves leading performance; notably, its average inference cost is only 30\%-50\% of that of existing World Models, providing a practical foundation for large-scale real-world applications of World Models. We also demonstrate diverse applications of MoWorld.
Abstract:Recent advances in large language models and programmatic CAD have significantly improved Text-to-CAD generation for individual parts. However, production-ready mechanical assembly generation remains largely unsolved. Unlike single-part modeling, assemblies require coordinated reasoning over multiple components, functional interfaces, assembly relations, engineering principles, and physical consistency. Consequently, directly generating executable CAD code is insufficient for constructing mechanically valid and reusable assemblies. We present AssemCAD, an axiom-grounded framework for production-ready CAD assembly generation from natural language. Instead of representing an assembly as monolithic CAD code, AssemCAD first constructs an axiomatic Assembly Specification consisting of typed parts, geometry-backed ports, executable mates, and engineering axioms. Each assembly relation is explicitly grounded in one or more engineering principles, making the resulting specification interpretable, reusable, and verifiable. To realize this specification, AssemCAD introduces a port- and mate-based CAD assembly library that executes symbolic assembly relations through deterministic mate transformations and validates declared interfaces using concrete B-Rep geometric evidence. Built on this representation and library, AssemCAD further supports on-demand synthesis of reusable parametric component factories for both standard and open-world geometries. Experiments on AssemBench show that AssemCAD substantially improves assembly preservation and physical validity over code-centric CAD generation baselines, while generalizing across different foundation-model backbones. By combining axiom-grounded assembly reasoning with deterministic geometric execution, AssemCAD extends Text-to-CAD from isolated part generation toward production-ready mechanical assembly design.
Abstract:JD$.$com, one of the world's largest e-commerce platforms, serves over 700 million active users and millions of merchants, with a catalog of tens of billions of SKUs. At this scale, high-quality, structured item knowledge underpins a better consumer experience, lower management costs, and higher operational efficiency-yet producing and serving it poses three industrial-scale challenges: fast-emerging concepts, high-quality knowledge production for massive SKUs, and diverse downstream requirements. To address these challenges, we present the JD Oxygen AI Item Center (Oxygen AIIC), an industrial-scale platform built on LLMs/VLMs for item-knowledge production and service. Oxygen AIIC is built around four core pillars: (i) ontology engineering driven by efficient human-AI collaboration, which supports the dynamic evolution and agile expansion of an ontology with millions of entries; (ii) a "Semantic Search then Discrimination"(S2D) knowledge identification architecture that, combined with throughput improvement strategies, enables scalable, extensible, and high-throughput AI Item Library production for tens of billions of SKUs; (iii) self-evolving item-understanding LLMs/VLMs that improve in a stable and controllable manner, enabling knowledge production with 94.2% precision and 82.8% recall; and (iv) a unified item tunnel that serves as the data and service hub. Oxygen AIIC now covers tens of thousands of JD categories and processes hundreds of millions of item updates per day on Huawei Ascend NPUs. It has accumulated hundreds of billions of item-knowledge assets. Deployed across core business scenarios-including search, recommendation, operations, category planning-Oxygen AIIC has delivered measurable gains at scale. Search-traffic coverage reaches 80.4%, item-information quality issues drop by 37%, the automated fill rate of core attributes during item listing exceeds 80%.
Abstract:Event-based object Detection (EvDet), as a biologically inspired visual perception paradigm, demonstrates superior performance in scenarios demanding high temporal resolution and a wide dynamic range. Nevertheless, the inherent sparse representations and inadequate visual semantics of event data result in a considerable performance disparity between EvDet and frame-based object detection. Previous works attempt to alleviate this cross-modal discrepancy through knowledge distillation, yet they only focus on spatial visual semantics or pair-wise relational information, thus limiting performance in more complex scenarios. To address this challenge, this paper proposes M^2C-EvDet, a Multi-domain and Multi-order Cross-modal knowledge distillation framework for EvDet. Built upon frequency learning and hypergraph computation, M^2C-EvDet integrates two specialized modules: Adaptive Frequency-Decoupled Feature Distillation (AF^2D^2) and Multi-Order Relational Distillation (MORD).
Abstract:Computer-Aided Design is pivotal in modern manufacturing, yet existing automated methods predominantly rely on open-loop, one-shot generation, creating a mismatch with iterative real-world practices. In this paper, we present IterCAD, a unified multimodal agent framework for closed-loop, interactive CAD generation and editing. We formulate the task as a multi-turn interaction between a multimodal agent and an executable CAD sandbox, covering three tasks: Drawing-to-Code, Text-to-Code, and Interactive Editing. To support this, we develop a data synthesis pipeline incorporating advanced industrial manufacturing features to generate standard-compliant multi-view engineering drawings, complex code-editing tasks, and high-fidelity interaction trajectories. We optimize the agent via progressive SFT followed by geometry-aware reinforcement learning with viable-prefix masking to enhance code executability and geometric fidelity. Finally, we introduce the IterCAD-Bench evaluation suite and propose the Chamfer Distance Tolerance-Recall (CD-TR) curve alongside its AUC-TR metric, establishing a survivor-bias-free standard that unifies code validity and geometric precision. Extensive experiments demonstrate that IterCAD achieves highly competitive performance across multiple benchmarks, significantly outperforming existing approaches in both code executability and geometric precision, while exhibiting superior capabilities in closed-loop iterative refinement.
Abstract:Object counting remains fragmented across domain-specific datasets and task formulations, despite rapid progress in generalist vision models. Existing counting models are often tailored to scenarios such as crowds, vehicles, cells, crops, or remote-sensing objects, and thus struggle to generalize across categories, visual domains, object scales, and density distributions. In this paper, we study text-guided object counting across domains, where a model takes an image and a natural-language query as input and returns an instance-grounded set of target points whose cardinality gives the count. This formulation unifies category-conditioned counting with interpretable spatial localization. To support this setting, we construct CLOC, a Cross-domain Large-scale Object Counting dataset that reorganizes diverse public data sources into a unified benchmark. CLOC covers six visual domains: General Scene, Remote Sensing, Histopathology, Cellular Microscopy, Agriculture, and Microbiology, with about 220K images, 619 categories, and 15M object instances. Based on CLOC, we propose Count Anything, a generalist model for text-guided object counting. Unlike density-map-based methods, which dominate counting models, Count Anything adopts discrete instance points and performs dual-granularity instance enumeration. A Region-level Sparse Counter provides object-level anchors for large and sparse targets, while a Pixel-level Dense Counter handles small, crowded, and weakly bounded targets via dense point prediction. A point-centric supervision strategy enables learning from heterogeneous annotations, and Complementary Count Fusion combines both counters in a parameter-free manner. Extensive experiments show that Count Anything achieves strong accuracy and multi-domain generalization, outperforming existing open-world counting methods.

Abstract:Large language models (LLMs) have recently shown strong potential in modeling relational structures. However, existing approaches remain fundamentally graph-centric: they focus on processing pairwise graph structures into tokens that LLMs can understand. In contrast, many real-world relational patterns do not naturally conform to the pairwise-edge assumption, and are better modeled as high-order associations in hypergraphs. For hypergraph structures, existing methods often fail to preserve the native semantics that multiple objects are jointly connected by the same high-order relation, limiting their ability to exploit complex structures. To address this limitation, we put forth the "Hypergraph as Language" perspective and propose Hyper-Align, a hypergraph-native alignment framework for large language models. Hyper-Align compiles the query-object-centered hypergraph context into hypergraph tokens directly consumable by a base LLM. Specifically, we introduce Hypergraph Incidence Detail Template with Overview (HIDT-O), which serializes high-order association structures into a fixed-shape hybrid template combining local incidence details and overview-level summaries. We then design a Hypergraph Incidence Projector (HIP), which maps native high-order incidence structures into the LLM token space through explicit semantic-structural decoupling and bidirectional message passing between vertices and hyperedges. We further define a concrete Hypergraph-as-Language input protocol, which jointly feeds hypergraph tokens and textual prompts into a frozen base LLM, supporting both vertex-level and hyperedge-level tasks under a unified question-answering paradigm. To systematically evaluate different methods in hypergraph structural modeling, we introduce HyperAlign-Bench. Extensive experiments show that Hyper-Align significantly outperforms existing methods across in-domain and zero-shot evaluations.
