Edges Compete for Trust: Group Relative Edge Optimization for Building Reconstruction from Point Clouds
Authors: Yujun Liu; Ruisheng Wang; Xiang Ao; Haoyuan Shen; Kuihao Wang; Kun Zhou; Qingquan Li
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: Building reconstruction aims to extract compact wireframes from point clouds. Recent edge-based methods achieve impressive results but suffer from sparse supervision from one-to-one matching, which leaves most edge proposals under-optimized. In this paper, we present Group Relative Edge Optimization (GREO), the first attempt to incentivize dense supervision across edges proposals through reinforcement learning-style optimization in wireframe reconstruction. Specifically, GREO computes edge-level rewards based on geometric alignment quality and transforms them into target confidence distributions via group-wise normalization. In addition, we incorporate entropy regularization to maintain distributional stability and prevent confidence collapse. This joint optimization enables dense and discriminative supervision across all edge proposals through cross-entropy minimization. Experiments on the large-scale Building3D dataset demonstrate that our powerful and versatile GREO integrates seamlessly into existing edge-based methods as a plug-and-play training strategy, achieving state-of-the-art performance on both the Entry-level and Tallinn benchmarks while adding no inference overhead.

Authors: Yi-Lin Wei; Haoran Liao; Yuhao Lin; Pengyue Wang; Zhizhao Liang; Guiliang Liu; Wei-Shi Zheng
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: In this paper, we explore an important yet underexplored task in robot manipulation: cycle-based manipulation, where robots need to perform cyclic or repetitive actions with an expected terminal time. These tasks are crucial in daily life, such as shaking a bottle or knocking a nail. However, few prior works have explored this task, leading to two main challenges: 1) the imitation methods often fail to complete these tasks within the expected terminal time due to the ineffective utilization of history; 2) the absence of a benchmark with sufficient data and automatic evaluation tools hinders development of effective solutions in this area. To address these challenges, we first propose the CycleManip framework to achieve cycle-based task manipulation in an end-to-end imitation manner without requiring any extra models, hierarchical structure or significant computational overhead. The core insight is to enhance effective history perception by a cost-aware sampling strategy and to improve historical understanding by multi-task learning. Second, we introduce a cycle-based task manipulation benchmark, which provides diverse cycle-based tasks, and an automatic evaluation method. Extensive experiments conducted in both simulation and real-world settings demonstrate that our method achieves high success rates in cycle-based task manipulation. The results further show strong adaptability performance in general manipulation, and the plug-and-play ability on imitation policies such as Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models. Moreover, the results show that our approach can be applied across diverse robotic platforms, including bi-arm grippers, dexterous hands, and humanoid robots.
ARMFlow: AutoRegressive MeanFlow for Online 3D Human Reaction Generation
Authors: Zichen Geng; Zeeshan Hayder; Wei Liu; Hesheng Wang; Ajmal Saeed Mian
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: 3D human reaction generation faces three main challenges: (1) high motion fidelity, (2) real-time inference, and (3) autoregressive adaptability for online scenarios. Existing methods fail to meet all three simultaneously. We propose ARMFlow, a MeanFlow-based autoregressive framework that models temporal dependencies between actor and reactor motions. It consists of a causal context encoder and an MLP-based velocity predictor. We introduce Bootstrap Contextual Encoding (BSCE) in training, encoding generated history instead of the ground-truth ones, to alleviate error accumulation in autoregressive generation. We further introduce the offline variant  ReMFlow , achieving state-of-the-art performance with the fastest inference among offline methods. Our ARMFlow addresses key limitations of online settings by: (1) enhancing semantic alignment via a global contextual encoder; (2) achieving high accuracy and low latency in a single-step inference; and (3) reducing accumulated errors through BSCE. Our single-step online generation surpasses existing online methods on InterHuman and InterX by about 30% in FID, while matching offline state-of-the-art performance despite using only partial sequence conditions. Code is available in the supplementary.
Decoupled and Reusable Adaptation for Efficient Cross-Modal Transfer
Authors: Yajing Liu; Yumeng Zhang; Yue Si; Baojie Fan; Jiandong Tian
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: Cross-modal transfer methods have achieved significant progress in extending RGB-based foundation models to non-RGB modalities. However, existing transfer paradigms are primarily task-oriented, meaning that changing tasks requires re-training and re-storing, leading to substantial redundancy in data, computation and storage. To address this limitation, we propose an efficient cross-modal transfer paradigm that decouples the process into a one-time general modality knowledge transfer and a flexible task knowledge transfer. In Stage 1, we propose a Progressive Self-Supervised Tuning strategy that integrates modality-aware structural reconstruction with semantic discriminative learning, which enables task-agnostic modality knowledge learning using only unlabeled data through a one-time training process, resulting in reusable target-modality LoRAs. In Stage 2, we incorporate the modality LoRAs and further propose a Task-Prompted Mixture-of-Modality Experts module. This design enables lightweight task knowledge injection while effectively balancing task-specific, modality-general and modality-specific knowledge in multimodal fusion process for diverse downstream tasks. Extensive experiments across six cross-modal transfer scenarios, along with analyses of data, computation, and storage efficiency, demonstrate the superiority of our method.

Authors: Shuang Song; Debao Huang; Deyan Deng; Haolin Xiong; Yang Tang; Yajie Zhao; Rongjun Qin
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: Intrinsic image decomposition (IID) of outdoor scenes is crucial for relighting, editing, and understanding large-scale environments, but progress has been limited by the lack of real-world datasets with reliable albedo and shading supervision. We introduce Olbedo, a large-scale aerial dataset for outdoor albedo--shading decomposition in the wild. Olbedo contains 5,664 UAV images captured across four landscape types, multiple years, and diverse illumination conditions. Each view is accompanied by multi-view consistent albedo and shading maps, metric depth, surface normals, sun and sky shading components, camera poses, and, for recent flights, measured HDR sky domes. These annotations are derived from an inverse-rendering refinement pipeline over multi-view stereo reconstructions and calibrated sky illumination, together with per-pixel confidence masks. We demonstrate that Olbedo enables state-of-the-art IID models, including both CNN-based and diffusion-based architectures originally trained on synthetic indoor data, to generalize to real outdoor imagery: fine-tuning on Olbedo significantly improves single-view outdoor albedo prediction on the MatrixCity benchmark. We further illustrate applications of Olbedo-trained models to multi-view consistent relighting of 3D assets, material editing, and scene change analysis for urban digital twins. We release the dataset, baseline models, and an evaluation protocol to support future research in outdoor intrinsic decomposition and illumination-aware aerial vision.

Authors: Jiehui Huang; Yuechen Zhang; Xu He; Yuan Gao; Zhi Cen; Bin Xia; Yan Zhou; Xin Tao; Pengfei Wan; Jiaya Jia
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: Recent video generation models demonstrate impressive synthesis capabilities but remain limited by single-modality conditioning, constraining their holistic world understanding. This stems from insufficient cross-modal interaction and limited modal diversity for comprehensive world knowledge representation.To address these limitations, we introduce UnityVideo, a unified framework for world-aware video generation that jointly learns across multiple modalities--segmentation masks, human skeletons, DensePose, optical flow, and depth maps--and training paradigms. Our approach features two core components: (1) dynamic noising to unify heterogeneous training paradigms, and (2) a modality switcher with an in-context learner that enables unified processing via modular parameters and contextual learning. We contribute a large-scale unified dataset with 1.3M samples. Through joint optimization, UnityVideo accelerates convergence and significantly enhances zero-shot generalization to unseen data. We demonstrate that UnityVideo achieves superior video quality, consistency, and improved alignment with physical world constraints.
Wave-Former: Through-Occlusion 3D Reconstruction via Wireless Shape Completion
Authors: Laura Dodds; Maisy Lam; Waleed Akbar; Yibo Cheng; Fadel Adib
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: We present Wave-Former, a novel method capable of high-accuracy 3D shape reconstruction for completely occluded, diverse, everyday objects. This capability can open new applications spanning robotics, augmented reality, and logistics. Our approach leverages millimeter-wave (mmWave) wireless signals, which can penetrate common occlusions and reflect off hidden objects. In contrast to past mmWave reconstruction methods, which suffer from limited coverage and high noise, Wave-Former introduces a physics-aware shape completion model capable of inferring full 3D geometry. At the heart of Wave-Former's design is a novel three-stage pipeline which bridges raw wireless signals with recent advancements in vision-based shape completion by incorporating physical properties of mmWave signals. The pipeline proposes candidate geometric surfaces, employs a transformer-based shape completion model designed specifically for mmWave signals, and finally performs entropy-guided surface selection. This enables Wave-Former to be trained using entirely synthetic point-clouds, while demonstrating impressive generalization to real-world data. In head-to-head comparisons with state-of-the-art baselines, Wave-Former raises recall from 54% to 72% while maintaining a high precision of 85%.
FUSAR-GPT: A Spatiotemporal Feature-Embedded and Two-Stage Decoupled Visual Language Model for SAR Imagery
Authors: Xiaokun Zhang; Yi Yang; Ziqi Ye; Baiyun Baiyun; Xiaorong Guo; Qingchen Fang; Ruyi Zhang; Xinpeng Zhou; Haipeng Wang
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: Research on the intelligent interpretation of all-weather, all-time Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is crucial for advancing remote sensing applications. In recent years, although Visual Language Models (VLMs) have demonstrated strong open-world understanding capabilities on RGB images, their performance is severely limited when directly applied to the SAR field due to the complexity of the imaging mechanism, sensitivity to scattering features, and the scarcity of high-quality text corpora. To systematically address this issue, we constructed the inaugural SAR Image-Text-AlphaEarth feature triplet dataset and developed FUSAR-GPT, a VLM specifically for SAR. FUSAR-GPT innovatively introduces a geospatial baseline model as a 'world knowledge' prior and embeds multi-source remote-sensing temporal features into the model's visual backbone via 'spatiotemporal anchors', enabling dynamic compensation for the sparse representation of targets in SAR images. Furthermore, we designed a two-stage SFT strategy to decouple the knowledge injection and task execution of large models. The spatiotemporal feature embedding and the two-stage decoupling paradigm enable FUSAR-GPT to achieve state-of-the-art performance across several typical remote sensing visual-language benchmark tests, significantly outperforming mainstream baseline models by over 10%.
IrisFP: Adversarial-Example-based Model Fingerprinting with Enhanced Uniqueness and Robustness
Authors: Ziye Geng; Guang Yang; Yihang Chen; Changqing Luo
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: We propose IrisFP, a novel adversarial-example-based model fingerprinting framework that enhances both uniqueness and robustness by leveraging multi-boundary characteristics, multi-sample behaviors, and fingerprint discriminative power assessment to generate composite-sample fingerprints. Three key innovations make IrisFP outstanding: 1) It positions fingerprints near the intersection of all decision boundaries--unlike prior methods that target a single boundary--thus increasing the prediction margin without placing fingerprints deep inside target class regions, enhancing both robustness and uniqueness; 2) It constructs composite-sample fingerprints, each comprising multiple samples close to the multi-boundary intersection, to exploit collective behavior patterns and further boost uniqueness; and 3) It assesses the discriminative power of generated fingerprints using statistical separability metrics developed based on two reference model sets respectively for pirated and independently-trained models, and assigns fingerprint-specific thresholds to retained fingerprints. Extensive experiments show that IrisFP consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving reliable ownership verification by enhancing both robustness and uniqueness.
ELVIS: Enhance Low-Light for Video Instance Segmentation in the Dark
Authors: Joanne Lin; Ruirui Lin; Yini Li; David Bull; Nantheera Anantrasirichai
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: Video instance segmentation (VIS) for low-light content remains highly challenging for both humans and machines alike, due to noise, blur and other adverse conditions. The lack of large-scale annotated datasets and the limitations of current synthetic pipelines, particularly in modeling temporal degradations, further hinder progress. Moreover, existing VIS methods are not robust to the degradations found in low-light videos and, consequently, perform poorly even after finetuning. In this paper, we introduce ELVIS (Enhance Low-Light for Video Instance Segmentation), a framework that enables domain adaptation of state-of-the-art VIS models to low-light scenarios. ELVIS is comprised of an unsupervised synthetic low-light video pipeline that models both spatial and temporal degradations, a calibration-free degradation profile estimation network (VDP-Net) and an enhancement decoder head that disentangles degradations from content features. ELVIS improves performances by up to +3.7AP on the synthetic low-light YouTube-VIS 2019 dataset and beats two-stage baselines by at least +2.8AP on real low-light videos.

End-to-End Hyper-Relational Information Extraction for Engineering Diagrams via Dynamically Tokenized Relation Transformer
Authors: Tianyou Bai; Yan-Ming Zhang; Zixiang Zhang; Jibin Zhou; Fei Yin; Cheng-Lin Liu
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: Engineering diagrams are the core carriers of technical information in industrial contexts, where the pressing demand for their digitization from industrial sectors has driven great advancements in related research domains. However, existing research still suffers from three limitations. Firstly, the detection of symbols, lines, and texts typically involves multiple independent models, resulting in cumbersome workflows. In addition, high-resolution diagrams often impose an excessive computational cost on existing models. Moreover, parsing frameworks solely based on object detection can merely localize component positions, yet fail to capture the topological connection semantics and structured knowledge among components, thus offering limited convenience for industrial applications. To address these issues, we propose an end-to-end information extraction framework based on the Dynamically Tokenized Relation Transformer (DTRT), which can dynamically reduce received image tokens, filter redundant information, and efficiently extract structural knowledge to construct hyper-relational knowledge graphs. We practiced our model on piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs) and electrical diagrams (EDs): the former are widely used in chemical engineering enterprises, while the latter are employed to describe circuit systems. DTRT achieves an R@1000 accuracy of 94.84% on PIDs and R@200 accuracy of 92.52% on EDs with a significantly reduced computational cost. Our code is available at https://github.com/Tianyou-Bai/DTRT-Diagram-Parsing-in-Scene-Graph.
CrossHOI-Bench: A Unified Benchmark for HOI Evaluation across Vision-Language Models and HOI-Specific Methods
Authors: Qinqian Lei; Bo Wang; Robby T. Tan
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: HOI detection has long been dominated by task-specific models, sometimes with early vision-language backbones such as CLIP. With the rise of large generative VLMs, a key question is whether standalone VLMs can perform HOI detection competitively against specialized HOI methods. Existing benchmarks such as HICO-DET require exact label matching under incomplete annotations, so any unmatched prediction is marked wrong. This unfairly penalizes valid outputs, especially from less constrained VLMs, and makes cross-paradigm comparison unreliable. To address this limitation, we introduce CrossHOI-Bench, a multiple-choice HOI benchmark with explicit positives and curated negatives, enabling unified and reliable evaluation of both VLMs and HOI-specific models. We further focus on challenging scenarios, such as multi-person scenes and fine-grained interaction distinctions, which are crucial for revealing real differences between the two paradigms. Experiments show that large VLMs achieve competitive, sometimes superior, zero-shot performance, yet they struggle with multiple concurrent actions and with correctly assigning interactions to the target person. Conversely, HOI-specific methods remain weaker in general HOI reasoning but demonstrate stronger multi-action recognition and more reliable identification of which person performs which action. These findings expose complementary strengths and weaknesses of VLMs and HOI-specific methods, which existing benchmarks fail to reveal due to incorrect penalization.

Authors: Kang Wu; Lei Yu; Junwei Luo; Bo Dang; Junjian Zhang; Xiangyuan Cai; Hongwei Hu; Jingdong Chen; Yansheng Li
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: While recent foundation models for remote sensing segmentation have shown notable progress, they still fall short in processing diverse multi-modal inputs, synergizing complementary prompt types, and leveraging semantic hierarchies. To address these limitations, we introduce SkySense-VITA, a unified in-context segmentation model, which synergistically processes both optical and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery using VIsual, TextuAl, or fused prompts. Based on a novel prompt-and-prediction decoupling strategy, we propose the VITA-Former and VITA-Decoder to decouple multi-modal prompt fusion and prediction process, allowing the model to flexibly support visual-only, textual-only, and fused prompt modes. We train SkySense-VITA with a progressive two-stage strategy: a first stage of Image-Level Alignment Pretraining featuring optical-SAR alignment, and a second stage of Pixel-Level In-context Pretraining using Semantic Granularity Annealing (SGA), a coarse-to-fine curriculum that enables robust hierarchical learning. To support this training, we introduce our new large-scale, multi-modal Sky-VT-300k dataset. Extensive experiments show SkySense-VITA establishes a new state-of-the-art (SOTA) on 18 datasets, with an average performance lead of over 10% mean Intersection over Union (mIoU).
Drift-Resilient Temporal Priors for Visual Tracking
Authors: Yuqing Huang; Liting Lin; Weijun Zhuang; Zhenyu He; Xin Li
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: Temporal information is crucial for visual tracking, but existing multi-frame trackers are vulnerable to model drift caused by naively aggregating noisy historical predictions. In this paper, we introduce DTPTrack, a lightweight and generalizable module designed to be seamlessly integrated into existing trackers to suppress drift. Our framework consists of two core components: (1) a Temporal Reliability Calibrator (TRC) mechanism that learns to assign a per-frame reliability score to historical states, filtering out noise while anchoring on the ground-truth template; and (2) a Temporal Guidance Synthesizer (TGS) module that synthesizes this calibrated history into a compact set of dynamic temporal priors to provide predictive guidance. To demonstrate its versatility, we integrate DTPTrack into three diverse tracking architectures--OSTrack, ODTrack, and LoRAT--and show consistent, significant performance gains across all baselines. Our best-performing model, built upon an extended LoRATv2 backbone, sets a new state-of-the-art on several benchmarks, achieving a 77.5% Success rate on LaSOT and an 80.3% AO on GOT-10k.

MuKV: Multi-Grained KV Cache Compression for Long Streaming Video Question-Answering
Authors: Junbin Xiao; Jiajun Chen; Tianxiang Sun; Xun Yang; Angela Yao
Venue: CVPR 2026 (main)

Abstract: Long streaming video QA remains challenging due to growing visual tokens and limited reasoning length of large language models (LLMs). KV-caching stores the Key-Value (KV) of the historical tokens via LLM prefill and enables more efficient streaming QA.  However, existing methods cache every one or two frames, causing redundant memory usage and losing fine-grained spatial details within frame or temporal contexts across frames. This paper proposes MuKV, a method that features a multi-grained KV cache compression module and a semi-hierarchical retrieval approach to improve both efficiency and accuracy for long streaming VideoQA. For the offline KV cache, MuKV extracts visual representations at patch-, frame-, and segment-levels. The multiple levels of granularity preserve both local cues and global temporal context, while maintaining efficiency with a dual signal token compression mechanism guided by self-attention and frequency. For online QA, MuKV designs a semi-hierarchical retrieval method to retrieve relevant KV caches for answer generation. Experiments on long-streaming VideoQA benchmarks show that MuKV significantly improves answer accuracy, without sacrificing memory and online QA efficiency. Moreover, our compression mechanism alone brings consistent benefits across answer accuracy, memory, and QA efficiency over baselines, showcasing highly effective contribution.
