We present MoBGS, a novel motion deblurring 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) framework capable of reconstructing sharp and high-quality novel spatio-temporal views from blurry monocular videos in an end-to-end manner. Existing dynamic novel view synthesis (NVS) methods are highly sensitive to motion blur in casually captured videos, resulting in significant degradation of rendering quality. While recent approaches address motion-blurred inputs for NVS, they primarily focus on static scene reconstruction and lack dedicated motion modeling for dynamic objects. To overcome these limitations, our MoBGS introduces a novel Blur-adaptive Latent Camera Estimation (BLCE) method using a proposed Blur-adaptive Neural Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE) solver for effective latent camera trajectory estimation, improving global camera motion deblurring. In addition, we propose a Latent Camera-induced Exposure Estimation (LCEE) method to ensure consistent deblurring of both a global camera and local object motions. Extensive experiments on the Stereo Blur dataset and real-world blurry videos show that our MoBGS significantly outperforms the very recent methods, achieving state-of-the-art performance for dynamic NVS under motion blur.

Recent advancements in weakly-supervised video anomaly detection have achieved remarkable performance by applying the multiple instance learning paradigm based on multimodal foundation models such as CLIP to highlight anomalous instances and classify categories.
However, their objectives may tend to detect the most salient response segments, while neglecting to mine diverse normal patterns separated from anomalies, and are prone to category confusion due to similar appearance, leading to unsatisfactory fine-grained classification results.
Therefore, we propose a novel Disentangled Semantic Alignment Network (DSANet) to explicitly separate abnormal and normal features from coarse-grained and fine-grained aspects, enhancing the distinguishability.
Specifically, at the coarse-grained level, we introduce a self-guided normality modeling branch that reconstructs input video features under the guidance of learned normal prototypes, encouraging the model to exploit normality cues inherent in the video, thereby improving the temporal separation of normal patterns and anomalous events.
At the fine-grained level, we present a decoupled contrastive semantic alignment mechanism, which first temporally decomposes each video into event-centric and background-centric components using frame-level anomaly scores and then applies visual-language contrastive learning to enhance class-discriminative representations.
Comprehensive experiments on two standard benchmarks, namely XD-Violence and UCF-Crime, demonstrate that DSANet outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods. 
Code and models will be publicly available.

Personalized image generation aims to produce images of user-specified concepts while enabling flexible editing. Recent training-free approaches, while exhibiting higher computational efficiency than training-based methods, struggle with identity preservation, applicability, and compatibility with diffusion transformers (DiTs). In this paper, we uncover the untapped potential of DiT, where simply replacing denoising tokens with those of a reference subject achieves zero-shot subject reconstruction. This simple yet effective feature injection technique unlocks diverse scenarios, from personalization to image editing. Building upon this observation, we propose \textit{Personalize Anything}, a training-free framework that achieves personalized image generation in DiT through:1) timestep-adaptive token replacement that enforces subject consistency via early-stage injection and enhances flexibility through late-stage regularization, and 2) patch perturbation strategies to boost structural diversity. Our method seamlessly supports layout-guided generation, multi-subject personalization, and mask-controlled editing. Evaluations demonstrate that our method, without requiring any training, achieves state-of-the-art performance in identity preservation and versatility. Our work establishes new insights into DiTs while delivering a practical paradigm for efficient personalization.

Low-frame-rate (LFR) Multi-Object Tracking (MOT) is crucial for efficient tracking on edge devices, as it significantly reduces computational and storage demands. However, existing trackers struggle in LFR settings due to large temporal gaps, extreme appearance changes, and motion non-linearity. While Graph Neural Network (GNN)-based trackers are effective at associating objects across these gaps, most operate offline, which prevents their use for online tracking. To address these limitations, we propose GLoMOT, a novel online GNN-based Low-Frame-Rate Multi-Object Tracker designed for robust performance in LFR videos. To bridge the large temporal gaps, we introduce a Dynamic Node Buffer Pool. This acts as a long-term memory, caching the states of absent objects to enable their robust re-association. To tackle extreme motion uncertainty, we propose an adaptive context-aware gating module that dynamically adjusts the weights of positional and appearance features, generating more robust features for predicting node connections. Furthermore, we propose a pseudo-depth feature calculation method. This provides the GNN with critical geometric context, which helps resolve spatial ambiguity arising from occlusions. Extensive experiments on several public MOT benchmarks, including DanceTrack, SportsMOT, MOT17, MOT20 and VisDrone, demonstrate GLoMOT's effectiveness and superiority, particularly in challenging Low-Frame-Rate conditions.

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) enhances the response quality and domain-specific performance of large language models (LLMs) by incorporating external knowledge to combat hallucinations. In recent research, graph structures have been integrated into RAG to enhance the capture of semantic relations between entities. However, it primarily focuses on low-order pairwise entity relations, limiting the high-order associations among multiple entities. Hypergraph-enhanced approaches address this limitation by modeling multi-entity interactions via hyperedges, but they are typically constrained to inter-chunk entity-level representations, overlooking the global thematic organization and alignment across chunks. Drawing inspiration from the top-down cognitive process of human reasoning, we propose a theme-aligned dual-hypergraph RAG framework (Cog-RAG) that uses a theme hypergraph to capture inter-chunk thematic structure and an entity hypergraph to model high-order semantic relations. Furthermore, we design a cognitive-inspired two-stage retrieval strategy that first activates query-relevant thematic content from the theme hypergraph, and then guides fine-grained recall and diffusion in the entity hypergraph, achieving semantic alignment and consistent generation from global themes to local details. Our extensive experiments demonstrate that Cog-RAG significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art baseline approaches. The code is available in supplementary material.

Remarkable advances in recent 2D image and 3D shape generation have induced a significant focus on dynamic 4D content generation. However, previous 4D generation methods commonly struggle to maintain spatial-temporal consistency and adapt poorly to rapid temporal variations, due to the lack of effective spatial-temporal modeling. To address these problems, we propose a novel 4D generation network called 4DSTR, which modulates generative 4D Gaussian Splatting with spatial-temporal rectification. Specifically, temporal correlation across generated 4D sequences is designed to rectify deformable scales and rotations and guarantee temporal consistency. Furthermore, an adaptive spatial densification and pruning strategy is proposed to address significant temporal variations by dynamically adding or deleting Gaussian points with the awareness of their pre-frame movements. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our 4DSTR achieves state-of-the-art performance in video-to-4D generation, excelling in reconstruction quality, spatial-temporal consistency, and adaptation to rapid temporal movements.

Exploration is critical for cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) to improve sample efficiency. However, existing intrinsic motivation-based exploration strategies in MARL overlook the causal relationships among agents, global states, and rewards, suffering from interference by irrelevant factors and resulting in sample inefficiency. 
To address this issue, we propose Causality-aware Efficient Exploration (CEE), a novel framework that enhances sample efficiency by inferring causal relationships between agents, global states with respect to rewards, thereby enabling causality-guided exploration. Specifically, CEE operates through two components. First, CEE identifies causal relationships between global states and rewards, filtering out causally irrelevant state features that do not have a high impact on rewards to keep decision-critical state information. Second, CEE discovers causal relationships between agents' behaviors and rewards to quantify each agent's contribution to collective performance. To achieve this, we introduce a causal entropy objective that promotes exploration aligned with decision-critical aspects of the underlying causal structure. We provide comprehensive validation through experiments on $21$ challenging tasks spanning SMAC, SMAC-v2, and Google Research Football (GRF) environments. Our results demonstrate that CEE achieves superior performance in terms of sample efficiency and asymptotic performance compared to existing MARL methods.

Time series forecasting is fundamental to diverse applications, with recent approaches leverage large vision models (LVMs) to capture temporal patterns through visual representations. We reveal that while vision models enhance forecasting performance, 99\% of their parameters are unnecessary for time series tasks. Through cross-modal analysis, we find that time series align with low-level textural features but not high-level semantics, which can impair forecasting accuracy. We propose OccamVTS, a knowledge distillation framework that extracts only the essential 1\% of predictive information from LVMs into lightweight networks. Using pre-trained LVMs as privileged teachers, OccamVTS employs pyramid-style feature alignment combined with correlation and feature distillation to transfer beneficial patterns while filtering out semantic noise. Counterintuitively, this aggressive parameter reduction improves accuracy by eliminating overfitting to irrelevant visual features while preserving essential temporal patterns. Extensive experiments across multiple benchmark datasets demonstrate that OccamVTS consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance with only 1\% of the original parameters, particularly excelling in few-shot and zero-shot scenarios.

Continual instruction tuning aims to incrementally adapt large language models to new tasks without forgetting previously acquired knowledge. Existing approaches often struggle to balance plasticity and stability. Replay-based methods retrain on historical data, which raises privacy concerns. Architecture-based methods allocate task-specific components, resulting in significant parameter growth. To address this, we consider a structure-sharing strategy that enables parameter reuse across similar tasks and expands only when necessary, avoiding any data replay. Specifically, we introduce Grow-on-Demand (GoD-MoE), a parameter-efficient framework that is based on sparse and adaptive expert module expansion for continual instruction tuning. GoD-MoE inserts multiple LoRA-based experts into attention layers and dynamically activates a small subset of experts for each task. To avoid redundant parameter growth, we develop an Expert Demand Detector that determines whether new experts are added, facilitating adaptive structural sharing and minimizing parameter overhead. We conduct comprehensive experiments on the TRACE benchmark, demonstrating that GoD-MoE achieves state-of-the-art performance. Furthermore, it effectively mitigates catastrophic forgetting and even outperforms several advanced replay-based baselines.

Data-protection regulations such as the GDPR grant every participant in a federated system a right to be forgotten. Federated unlearning has therefore emerged as a research frontier, aiming to remove a specific party's contribution from the learned model while preserving the utility of the remaining parties. However, most unlearning techniques focus on Horizontal Federated Learning (HFL), where data are partitioned by samples. In contrast, Vertical Federated Learning (VFL) allows organizations that possess complementary feature spaces to train a joint model without sharing raw data. The resulting feature-partitioned architecture renders HFL-oriented unlearning methods ineffective. In this paper, we propose ReMisVFU, a plug-and-play representation-misdirection framework that enables fast, client-level unlearning in splitVFL systems. When a deletion request arrives, the forgetting party collapses its encoder output to a randomly sampled anchor on the unit sphere, severing the statistical link between its features and the global model. To maintain utility for the remaining parties, the server jointly optimizes a retention loss and a forgetting loss, aligning their gradients via orthogonal projection to eliminate destructive interference. Evaluations on public benchmarks show that ReMisVFU suppresses back-door attack success to the natural class-prior level and sacrifices only about 2.5% points of clean accuracy, outperforming state-of-the-art baselines.

REMISVFU: Vertical Federated Unlearning via Representation Misdirection for Intermediate Output Feature

In this paper, we aim to create physical digital twins of deformable objects under interaction. Existing methods focus more on the physical learning of current state modeling, but generalize worse to future prediction. This is because existing methods ignore the intrinsic physical properties of deformable objects, resulting in the limited physical learning in the current state modeling. 
To address this, we present NeuSpring, a neural spring field for the reconstruction and simulation of deformable objects from videos. Built upon spring-mass models for realist physical simulation, our method consists of two major innovations: 1) a piecewise topology solution that efficiently models multi-region spring connection topologies using zero-order optimization, which considers the material heterogeneity‌‌ of real-world objects. 2) a neural spring field that represents spring physical properties across different frames using a canonical coordinate-based neural network, which effectively leverages the spatial associativity of springs for physical learning. Experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that our NeuSping achieves superior reconstruction and simulation performance for current state modeling and future prediction, with Chamfer distance improved by **20\%** and **25\%**, respectively.
