CoFlow: Coordinated Few-Step Flow for Offline Multi-Agent Decision Making

Generative models have emerged as a promising paradigm for offline multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), but existing approaches require many iterative sampling steps. Recent few-step acceleration methods either distill a joint teacher into independent students or apply averaged velocity fields independently to each agent. Unfortunately, these few-step approaches hurt inter-agent coordination. We show that the efficiency-coordination trade-off is not inherent: single-pass multi-agent generation can preserve coordination when the velocity field is natively joint-coupled. We propose Coordinated few-step Flow (CoFlow), an architecture that combines Coordinated Velocity Attention (CVA) with Adaptive Coordination Gating. A finite-difference consistency surrogate further replaces memory-prohibitive Jacobian-vector product backpropagation through the averaged velocity field with two stop-gradient forward passes. Across 60 configurations spanning MPE, MA-MuJoCo, and SMAC, CoFlow matches or surpasses Gaussian policies, value-based methods, transformer policies, diffusion models, and prior flow baselines on episodic return. Three independent coordination probes confirm that CoFlow's improvements arise from inter-agent coordination rather than per-agent capacity. A denoising-step sweep shows that single-pass inference suffices on every configuration. CoFlow reaches state-of-the-art coordination quality in 1-3 denoising steps under both centralized and decentralized execution. Project Page: https://guowei-zou.github.io/coflow/

Med-DisSeg: Dispersion-Driven Representation Learning for Fine-Grained Medical Image Segmentation

Accurate medical image segmentation is fundamental to precision medicine, yet robust delineation remains challenging under heterogeneous appearances, ambiguous boundaries, and large anatomical variability. Similar intensity and texture patterns between targets and surrounding tissues often lead to blurred activations and unreliable separation. We attribute these failures to representation collapse during encoding and insufficient fine grained multi scale decoding. To address these issues, we propose Med DisSeg, a dispersion driven medical image segmentation framework that jointly improves representation learning and anatomical delineation. Med DisSeg combines a lightweight Dispersive Loss with adaptive attention for fine grained structure segmentation. The Dispersive Loss enlarges inter sample margins by treating in batch hidden representations as negative pairs, producing well dispersed and boundary aware embeddings with negligible overhead. Based on these enhanced representations, the encoder strengthens structure sensitive responses, while the decoder performs adaptive multi scale calibration to preserve complementary local texture and global shape information. Extensive experiments on five datasets spanning three imaging modalities demonstrate consistent state of the art performance. Moreover, Med DisSeg achieves competitive results on multi organ CT segmentation, supporting its robustness and cross task applicability.

SpectraFlow: Unifying Structural Pretraining and Frequency Adaptation for Medical Image Segmentation

Medical image segmentation remains challenging in low-data regimes, where scarce annotations often yield poor generalization and ambiguous boundaries with missing fine structures. Recent self-supervised pretraining has improved transferability, but it often exhibits a texture bias. In contrast, accurate segmentation is inherently geometry-aware and depends on both topological consistency and precise boundary preservation. To address this problem, we propose a two-stage framework that couples structure-aware encoder pretraining with boundary-oriented decoding. In Stage-1, we aim to learn structure-aware representations for downstream segmentation in low-data regimes. To this end, we propose Mixed-Domain MeanFlow Pretraining, which aligns images and binary masks in a shared latent space through latent transport regression, where masks act as conditional structural guidance rather than prediction targets, making the pretraining task-agnostic. To further improve training stability under scarce supervision, we incorporate a lightweight Dispersive Loss to prevent representation collapse. In Stage-2, we fine-tune the pretrained encoder with a lightweight decoder that combines Direct Attentional Fusion for adaptive cross-scale gating and Frequency-Directional Dynamic Convolution for high-frequency boundary refinement under appearance variation. Experiments on ISIC-2016, Kvasir-SEG, and GlaS demonstrate consistent gains over state-of-the-art methods, with improved robustness in low-data settings and sharper boundary delineation.
