CamFlow+: Hybrid Motion Bases for 2D Camera Motion Estimation with Stabilization Applications

Estimating 2D camera motion is fundamental to computer vision and computational photography. Existing homography-based methods work well for planar scenes or pure rotation, but struggle with camera translation, depth variation, and local parallax; local homography and mesh-based models improve flexibility but still rely on piecewise planar assumptions. We introduce CamFlow+, a hybrid-basis framework that represents 2D camera motion directly in dense-flow space. CamFlow+ combines homography-derived physical bases, stochastic bases sampled from homography flows, and depth-translational bases derived from depth and camera intrinsics, relaxing the single-plane constraint while preserving camera-motion regularity. A depth-aware smoothness term further regularizes translation-induced parallax in continuous-depth regions while preserving motion changes near depth boundaries. We evaluate CamFlow+ on GHOF-Cam, a camera-motion benchmark that masks out dynamic objects and ill-posed occlusion regions in an optical-flow benchmark to isolate camera-induced motion. Experiments show that CamFlow+ improves sparse and dense camera-motion estimation. In digital video stabilization, CamFlow+ also improves global and local stability, achieving the best top-1 preference rate in a blind user study. Code and datasets will be available on the project page: https://lhaippp.github.io/CamFlow+.

SpatialForge: Bootstrapping 3D-Aware Spatial Reasoning from Open-World 2D Images

Recent advancements in Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have demonstrated exceptional semantic understanding, yet these models consistently struggle with spatial reasoning, often failing at fundamental geometric tasks such as depth ordering and precise coordinate grounding. Recent efforts introduce spatial supervision from scene-centric datasets (e.g., multi-view scans or indoor video), but are constrained by the limited number of underlying scenes. As a result, the scale and diversity of such data remain significantly smaller than those of web-scale 2D image collections. To address this limitation, we propose SpatialForge, a scalable data synthesis pipeline that transforms in-the-wild 2D images into spatial reasoning supervision. Our approach decomposes spatial reasoning into perception and relation, and constructs structured supervision signals covering depth, layout, and viewpoint-dependent reasoning, with automatic verification to ensure data quality. Based on this pipeline, we build SpatialForge-10M, a large-scale dataset containing 10 million spatial QA pairs. Extensive experiments across multiple spatial reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that training on SpatialForge-10M significantly improves the spatial reasoning ability of standard VLMs, highlighting the effectiveness of scaling 2D data for 3D-aware spatial reasoning.

PhyMix: Towards Physically Consistent Single-Image 3D Indoor Scene Generation with Implicit--Explicit Optimization

Existing single-image 3D indoor scene generators often produce results that look visually plausible but fail to obey real-world physics, limiting their reliability in robotics, embodied AI, and design. To examine this gap, we introduce a unified Physics Evaluator that measures four main aspects: geometric priors, contact, stability, and deployability, which are further decomposed into nine sub-constraints, establishing the first benchmark to measure physical consistency. Based on this evaluator, our analysis shows that state-of-the-art methods remain largely physics-unaware. To overcome this limitation, we further propose a framework that integrates feedback from the Physics Evaluator into both training and inference, enhancing the physical plausibility of generated scenes. Specifically, we propose PhyMix, which is composed of two complementary components: (i) implicit alignment via Scene-GRPO, a critic-free group-relative policy optimization that leverages the Physics Evaluator as a preference signal and biases sampling towards physically feasible layouts, and (ii) explicit refinement via a plug-and-play Test-Time Optimizer (TTO) that uses differentiable evaluator signals to correct residual violations during generation. Overall, our method unifies evaluation, reward shaping, and inference-time correction, producing 3D indoor scenes that are visually faithful and physically plausible. Extensive synthetic evaluations confirm state-of-the-art performance in both visual fidelity and physical plausibility, and extensive qualitative examples in stylized and real-world images further showcase the robustness of the method. We will release codes and models upon publication.

coDrawAgents: A Multi-Agent Dialogue Framework for Compositional Image Generation

Text-to-image generation has advanced rapidly, but existing models still struggle with faithfully composing multiple objects and preserving their attributes in complex scenes. We propose coDrawAgents, an interactive multi-agent dialogue framework with four specialized agents: Interpreter, Planner, Checker, and Painter that collaborate to improve compositional generation. The Interpreter adaptively decides between a direct text-to-image pathway and a layout-aware multi-agent process. In the layout-aware mode, it parses the prompt into attribute-rich object descriptors, ranks them by semantic salience, and groups objects with the same semantic priority level for joint generation. Guided by the Interpreter, the Planner adopts a divide-and-conquer strategy, incrementally proposing layouts for objects with the same semantic priority level while grounding decisions in the evolving visual context of the canvas. The Checker introduces an explicit error-correction mechanism by validating spatial consistency and attribute alignment, and refining layouts before they are rendered. Finally, the Painter synthesizes the image step by step, incorporating newly planned objects into the canvas to provide richer context for subsequent iterations. Together, these agents address three key challenges: reducing layout complexity, grounding planning in visual context, and enabling explicit error correction. Extensive experiments on benchmarks GenEval and DPG-Bench demonstrate that coDrawAgents substantially improves text-image alignment, spatial accuracy, and attribute binding compared to existing methods.

PEGAsus: 3D Personalization of Geometry and Appearance

We present PEGAsus, a new framework capable of generating Personalized 3D shapes by learning shape concepts at both Geometry and Appearance levels. First, we formulate 3D shape personalization as extracting reusable, category-agnostic geometric and appearance attributes from reference shapes, and composing these attributes with text to generate novel shapes. Second, we design a progressive optimization strategy to learn shape concepts at both the geometry and appearance levels, decoupling the shape concept learning process. Third, we extend our approach to region-wise concept learning, enabling flexible concept extraction, with context-aware and context-free losses. Extensive experimental results show that PEGAsus is able to effectively extract attributes from a wide range of reference shapes and then flexibly compose these concepts with text to synthesize new shapes. This enables fine-grained control over shape generation and supports the creation of diverse, personalized results, even in challenging cross-category scenarios. Both quantitative and qualitative experiments demonstrate that our approach outperforms existing state-of-the-art solutions.

Imagine a City: CityGenAgent for Procedural 3D City Generation

The automated generation of interactive 3D cities is a critical challenge with broad applications in autonomous driving, virtual reality, and embodied intelligence. While recent advances in generative models and procedural techniques have improved the realism of city generation, existing methods often struggle with high-fidelity asset creation, controllability, and manipulation. In this work, we introduce CityGenAgent, a natural language-driven framework for hierarchical procedural generation of high-quality 3D cities. Our approach decomposes city generation into two interpretable components, Block Program and Building Program. To ensure structural correctness and semantic alignment, we adopt a two-stage learning strategy: (1) Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT). We train BlockGen and BuildingGen to generate valid programs that adhere to schema constraints, including non-self-intersecting polygons and complete fields; (2) Reinforcement Learning (RL). We design Spatial Alignment Reward to enhance spatial reasoning ability and Visual Consistency Reward to bridge the gap between textual descriptions and the visual modality. Benefiting from the programs and the models' generalization, CityGenAgent supports natural language editing and manipulation. Comprehensive evaluations demonstrate superior semantic alignment, visual quality, and controllability compared to existing methods, establishing a robust foundation for scalable 3D city generation.

OPA-Pack: Object-Property-Aware Robotic Bin Packing

Robotic bin packing aids in a wide range of real-world scenarios such as e-commerce and warehouses. Yet, existing works focus mainly on considering the shape of objects to optimize packing compactness and neglect object properties such as fragility, edibility, and chemistry that humans typically consider when packing objects. This paper presents OPA-Pack (Object-Property-Aware Packing framework), the first framework that equips the robot with object property considerations in planning the object packing. Technical-wise, we develop a novel object property recognition scheme with retrieval-augmented generation and chain-of-thought reasoning, and build a dataset with object property annotations for 1,032 everyday objects. Also, we formulate OPA-Net, aiming to jointly separate incompatible object pairs and reduce pressure on fragile objects, while compacting the packing. Further, OPA-Net consists of a property embedding layer to encode the property of candidate objects to be packed, together with a fragility heightmap and an avoidance heightmap to keep track of the packed objects. Then, we design a reward function and adopt a deep Q-learning scheme to train OPA-Net. Experimental results manifest that OPA-Pack greatly improves the accuracy of separating incompatible object pairs (from 52% to 95%) and largely reduces pressure on fragile objects (by 29.4%), while maintaining good packing compactness. Besides, we demonstrate the effectiveness of OPA-Pack on a real packing platform, showcasing its practicality in real-world scenarios.

Rethinking End-to-End 2D to 3D Scene Segmentation in Gaussian Splatting

Lifting multi-view 2D instance segmentation to a radiance field has proven to be effective to enhance 3D understanding. Existing methods rely on direct matching for end-to-end lifting, yielding inferior results; or employ a two-stage solution constrained by complex pre- or post-processing. In this work, we design a new end-to-end object-aware lifting approach, named Unified-Lift that provides accurate 3D segmentation based on the 3D Gaussian representation. To start, we augment each Gaussian point with an additional Gaussian-level feature learned using a contrastive loss to encode instance information. Importantly, we introduce a learnable object-level codebook to account for individual objects in the scene for an explicit object-level understanding and associate the encoded object-level features with the Gaussian-level point features for segmentation predictions. While promising, achieving effective codebook learning is non-trivial and a naive solution leads to degraded performance. Therefore, we formulate the association learning module and the noisy label filtering module for effective and robust codebook learning. We conduct experiments on three benchmarks: LERF-Masked, Replica, and Messy Rooms datasets. Both qualitative and quantitative results manifest that our Unified-Lift clearly outperforms existing methods in terms of segmentation quality and time efficiency. The code is publicly available at \href{https://github.com/Runsong123/Unified-Lift}{https://github.com/Runsong123/Unified-Lift}.

WonderVerse: Extendable 3D Scene Generation with Video Generative Models

We introduce \textit{WonderVerse}, a simple but effective framework for generating extendable 3D scenes. Unlike existing methods that rely on iterative depth estimation and image inpainting, often leading to geometric distortions and inconsistencies, WonderVerse leverages the powerful world-level priors embedded within video generative foundation models to create highly immersive and geometrically coherent 3D environments. Furthermore, we propose a new technique for controllable 3D scene extension to substantially increase the scale of the generated environments. Besides, we introduce a novel abnormal sequence detection module that utilizes camera trajectory to address geometric inconsistency in the generated videos. Finally, WonderVerse is compatible with various 3D reconstruction methods, allowing both efficient and high-quality generation. Extensive experiments on 3D scene generation demonstrate that our WonderVerse, with an elegant and simple pipeline, delivers extendable and highly-realistic 3D scenes, markedly outperforming existing works that rely on more complex architectures.

What Matters in Detecting AI-Generated Videos like Sora?

Recent advancements in diffusion-based video generation have showcased remarkable results, yet the gap between synthetic and real-world videos remains under-explored. In this study, we examine this gap from three fundamental perspectives: appearance, motion, and geometry, comparing real-world videos with those generated by a state-of-the-art AI model, Stable Video Diffusion. To achieve this, we train three classifiers using 3D convolutional networks, each targeting distinct aspects: vision foundation model features for appearance, optical flow for motion, and monocular depth for geometry. Each classifier exhibits strong performance in fake video detection, both qualitatively and quantitatively. This indicates that AI-generated videos are still easily detectable, and a significant gap between real and fake videos persists. Furthermore, utilizing the Grad-CAM, we pinpoint systematic failures of AI-generated videos in appearance, motion, and geometry. Finally, we propose an Ensemble-of-Experts model that integrates appearance, optical flow, and depth information for fake video detection, resulting in enhanced robustness and generalization ability. Our model is capable of detecting videos generated by Sora with high accuracy, even without exposure to any Sora videos during training. This suggests that the gap between real and fake videos can be generalized across various video generative models. Project page: https://justin-crchang.github.io/3DCNNDetection.github.io/
