Abstract:Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have shown strong generalization in robotic manipulation, yet complex contact-rich tasks often benefit from multi-camera observations that jointly capture the end effector, objects, and targets under occlusion. Existing multi-camera VLAs usually concatenate view tokens, leaving action representations weak in metric depth and inconsistent across cameras. We introduce Multi-View Unified Camera Fields (MVUCF), a training-only framework that forms a shared action-facing latent field across views. A coordinate-query depth objective makes metric depth recoverable, while a preprocessing-aware correspondence objective aligns tokens observing the same physical point from different cameras. Both directly shape the hidden states consumed by the action module. After geometry injection, depth, camera calibration, and auxiliary heads are removed, so deployment uses the original RGB-only graph with no extra inference FLOPs. Held-out probes confirm stronger depth recovery and cross-view matching. Under matched GR00T-N1.6 settings, MVUCF reaches 98.9% on LIBERO, improves LIBERO-Plus by 22.4 points, and raises success by 23.3 points across six RoboTwin tasks spanning three action families: touch, move-and-place, and contact interaction. Real-world humanoid experiments further provide evidence of its practical effectiveness under RGB-only deployment.
Abstract:Subjective visual grading of blood vessel tortuosity relies heavily on clinical experience, while traditional distance-based indices often fail to adequately characterize three-dimensional spatial deformation. Because abnormal internal carotid artery morphology may be clinically relevant to cerebrovascular assessment and stroke-risk evaluation, objective and reproducible quantification of vascular tortuosity is of considerable importance. To address this limitation, we propose a mathematical framework for the morphological classification of the internal carotid artery (ICA-C1) segment. The framework integrates discrete geometric feature measurement, Information Gain-based feature selection, and Random Forest classification. An initial set of 13 tortuosity features is extracted from the corresponding 379 clinical vascular centerlines using discrete geometric methods and subsequently reduced to a six-feature subset consisting of $\mathcal{TI}$, $\mathcal{AC}$, $\mathcal{TC}$, $\mathcal{AC}/\mathcal{AT}$, $\mathcal{AT}$, and $\mathcal{TT}$. The framework is evaluated in two classification tasks. For binary classification of non-severe and severe tortuosity, the RF model achieves a Macro-F1 score of 0.9206. For ternary morphological grading into straight, low-tortuosity, and high-tortuosity groups, it achieves a Macro-F1 score of 0.8626. The results indicate that elongation- and curvature-related features provide strong discriminatory information for basic screening, whereas torsion-related features contribute additional information for more detailed morphological classification. Based on the RF feature-importance values, we further define a Morphological Risk Index (MRI), which provides a direct numerical reference for vascular morphology and may facilitate more objective and consistent clinical assessment.
Abstract:Medical vision-language models (VLMs) have rapidly advanced as general-purpose multimodal assistants, yet their deployment in 3D Computed Tomography (CT) analysis remains constrained by a persistent mismatch between optimization objectives and clinical rigor. Current Reinforcement Learning (RL) paradigms still rely on lexical proxy signals that induce ``\textit{Evaluation Hallucinations}'', where models optimize linguistic fluency rather than factual clinical correctness, leading to diagnostically critical errors. To bridge this gap, we introduce the \textbf{Clinical Abnormality Benchmarking Substrate (CABS)}, a structured system that decomposes radiology reports into verifiable clinical semantic units. Using CABS, we identify a ``\textit{Mechanistic Divergence}'' in standard RL, where surface-similarity rewards drive policy gradients to bypass medical facts. We therefore propose \textbf{Trajectory-Integral Feedback GRPO (TIF-GRPO)}, a novel framework integrating control-theoretic principles into policy optimization. By formulating clinical reasoning as a pseudo-temporal trajectory for anomaly discovery, TIF-GRPO regulates anatomy-aware rewards via an integral feedback loop that penalizes persistent omissions as cumulative state errors and suppresses hallucinations as excessive control effort. Experiments on 3D CT benchmarks demonstrate that our approach significantly enhances abnormality detection and clinical faithfulness, establishing a new paradigm for fine-grained regulation in medical VLMs. Our project is available at \href{https://github.com/ZJU4HealthCare/TIF-GRPO}{GitHub}.
Abstract:Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) have achieved remarkable progress in general-purpose vision--language understanding, yet they remain limited in tasks requiring precise object-level grounding, fine-grained spatial reasoning, and controllable visual manipulation. In particular, existing systems often struggle to identify the correct instance, preserve object identity across interactions, and localize or modify designated regions with high precision. Object-centric vision provides a principled framework for addressing these challenges by promoting explicit representations and operations over visual entities, thereby extending multimodal systems from global scene understanding to object-level understanding, segmentation, editing, and generation. This paper presents a comprehensive review of recent advances at the convergence of LMMs and object-centric vision. We organize the literature into four major themes: object-centric visual understanding, object-centric referring segmentation, object-centric visual editing, and object-centric visual generation. We further summarize the key modeling paradigms, learning strategies, and evaluation protocols that support these capabilities. Finally, we discuss open challenges and future directions, including robust instance permanence, fine-grained spatial control, consistent multi-step interaction, unified cross-task modeling, and reliable benchmarking under distribution shift. We hope this paper provides a structured perspective on the development of scalable, precise, and trustworthy object-centric multimodal systems.
Abstract:As industrial manufacturing scales, automating fine-grained product image analysis has become critical for quality control. However, existing approaches are hindered by limited dataset coverage and poor model generalization across diverse and complex anomaly patterns. To address these challenges, we introduce MAU-Set, a comprehensive dataset for Multi-type industrial Anomaly Understanding. It spans multiple industrial domains and features a hierarchical task structure, ranging from binary classification to complex reasoning. Alongside this dataset, we establish a rigorous evaluation protocol to facilitate fair and comprehensive model assessment. Building upon this foundation, we further present MAU-GPT, a domain-adapted multimodal large model specifically designed for industrial anomaly understanding. It incorporates a novel AMoE-LoRA mechanism that unifies anomaly-aware and generalist experts adaptation, enhancing both understanding and reasoning across diverse defect classes. Extensive experiments show that MAU-GPT consistently outperforms prior state-of-the-art methods across all domains, demonstrating strong potential for scalable and automated industrial inspection.
Abstract:Unified large multimodal models (LMMs) have achieved remarkable progress in general-purpose multimodal understanding and generation. However, they still operate under a ``one-size-fits-all'' paradigm and struggle to model user-specific concepts (e.g., generate a photo of \texttt{<maeve>}) in a consistent and controllable manner. Existing personalization methods typically rely on external retrieval, which is inefficient and poorly integrated into unified multimodal pipelines. Recent personalized unified models introduce learnable soft prompts to encode concept information, yet they either couple understanding and generation or depend on complex multi-stage training, leading to cross-task interference and ultimately to fuzzy or misaligned personalized knowledge. We present \textbf{OmniPersona}, an end-to-end personalization framework for unified LMMs that, for the first time, integrates personalized understanding, generation, and image editing within a single architecture. OmniPersona introduces structurally decoupled concept tokens, allocating dedicated subspaces for different tasks to minimize interference, and incorporates an explicit knowledge replay mechanism that propagates personalized attribute knowledge across tasks, enabling consistent personalized behavior. To systematically evaluate unified personalization, we propose \textbf{\texttt{OmniPBench}}, extending the public UnifyBench concept set with personalized editing tasks and cross-task evaluation protocols integrating understanding, generation, and editing. Experimental results demonstrate that OmniPersona delivers competitive and robust performance across diverse personalization tasks. We hope OmniPersona will serve as a strong baseline and spur further research on controllable, unified personalization.
Abstract:Autonomous systems are increasingly deployed in open and dynamic environments -- from city streets to aerial and indoor spaces -- where perception models must remain reliable under sensor noise, environmental variation, and platform shifts. However, even state-of-the-art methods often degrade under unseen conditions, highlighting the need for robust and generalizable robot sensing. The RoboSense 2025 Challenge is designed to advance robustness and adaptability in robot perception across diverse sensing scenarios. It unifies five complementary research tracks spanning language-grounded decision making, socially compliant navigation, sensor configuration generalization, cross-view and cross-modal correspondence, and cross-platform 3D perception. Together, these tasks form a comprehensive benchmark for evaluating real-world sensing reliability under domain shifts, sensor failures, and platform discrepancies. RoboSense 2025 provides standardized datasets, baseline models, and unified evaluation protocols, enabling large-scale and reproducible comparison of robust perception methods. The challenge attracted 143 teams from 85 institutions across 16 countries, reflecting broad community engagement. By consolidating insights from 23 winning solutions, this report highlights emerging methodological trends, shared design principles, and open challenges across all tracks, marking a step toward building robots that can sense reliably, act robustly, and adapt across platforms in real-world environments.
Abstract:Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) requires an agent to dynamically explore complex 3D environments following human instructions. Recent research underscores the potential of harnessing large language models (LLMs) for VLN, given their commonsense knowledge and general reasoning capabilities. Despite their strengths, a substantial gap in task completion performance persists between LLM-based approaches and domain experts, as LLMs inherently struggle to comprehend real-world spatial correlations precisely. Additionally, introducing LLMs is accompanied with substantial computational cost and inference latency. To address these issues, we propose a novel dual-process thinking framework dubbed R3, integrating LLMs' generalization capabilities with VLN-specific expertise in a zero-shot manner. The framework comprises three core modules: Runner, Ruminator, and Regulator. The Runner is a lightweight transformer-based expert model that ensures efficient and accurate navigation under regular circumstances. The Ruminator employs a powerful multimodal LLM as the backbone and adopts chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting to elicit structured reasoning. The Regulator monitors the navigation progress and controls the appropriate thinking mode according to three criteria, integrating Runner and Ruminator harmoniously. Experimental results illustrate that R3 significantly outperforms other state-of-the-art methods, exceeding 3.28% and 3.30% in SPL and RGSPL respectively on the REVERIE benchmark. This pronounced enhancement highlights the effectiveness of our method in handling challenging VLN tasks.

Abstract:Image fusion, a fundamental low-level vision task, aims to integrate multiple image sequences into a single output while preserving as much information as possible from the input. However, existing methods face several significant limitations: 1) requiring task- or dataset-specific models; 2) neglecting real-world image degradations (\textit{e.g.}, noise), which causes failure when processing degraded inputs; 3) operating in pixel space, where attention mechanisms are computationally expensive; and 4) lacking user interaction capabilities. To address these challenges, we propose a unified framework for multi-task, multi-degradation, and language-guided image fusion. Our framework includes two key components: 1) a practical degradation pipeline that simulates real-world image degradations and generates interactive prompts to guide the model; 2) an all-in-one Diffusion Transformer (DiT) operating in latent space, which fuses a clean image conditioned on both the degraded inputs and the generated prompts. Furthermore, we introduce principled modifications to the original DiT architecture to better suit the fusion task. Based on this framework, we develop two versions of the model: Regression-based and Flow Matching-based variants. Extensive qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrate that our approach effectively addresses the aforementioned limitations and outperforms previous restoration+fusion and all-in-one pipelines.
