GEM: Generating LiDAR World Model via Deformable Mamba

World models, which simulate environmental dynamics and generate sensor observations, are gaining increasing attention in autonomous driving. However, progress in LiDAR-based world models has lagged behind those built on camera videos or occupancy data, primarily due to two core challenges: the inherent disorder of LiDAR point clouds and the difficulty of distinguishing dynamic objects from static structures. To address these issues, we propose GEM: a Generative LiDAR world model that leverages deformable mamba architecture, significantly improving fidelity and imaginative capability. Specifically, leveraging the structural similarity between sequential laser scanning and Mamba's processing mechanism, we first tokenize LiDAR sweeps into compact representations via a custom LiDAR scene tokenizer. After unsupervised disentanglement of tokenized features via a dynamic-static separator, a tri-path deformable Mamba is introduced to perform selective scanning and adaptive gating fusion over the disentangled features, leading to enhanced spatial-temporal understanding of the world evolution. Optionally, a planner and a BEV layout controller can be integrated to explore the model's capability for autonomous rollout and its potential to generate ``what-if" scenarios. Extensive experiments show that GEM achieves state-of-the-art performances across diverse benchmarks and evaluation settings, demonstrating its superiority and effectiveness.

Non-aligned supervision for Real Image Dehazing

Removing haze from real-world images is challenging due to unpredictable weather conditions, resulting in the misalignment of hazy and clear image pairs. In this paper, we propose an innovative dehazing framework that operates under non-aligned supervision. This framework is grounded in the atmospheric scattering model, and consists of three interconnected networks: dehazing, airlight, and transmission networks. In particular, we explore a non-alignment scenario that a clear reference image, unaligned with the input hazy image, is utilized to supervise the dehazing network. To implement this, we present a multi-scale reference loss that compares the feature representations between the referred image and the dehazed output. Our scenario makes it easier to collect hazy/clear image pairs in real-world environments, even under conditions of misalignment and shift views. To showcase the effectiveness of our scenario, we have collected a new hazy dataset including 415 image pairs captured by mobile Phone in both rural and urban areas, called "Phone-Hazy". Furthermore, we introduce a self-attention network based on mean and variance for modeling real infinite airlight, using the dark channel prior as positional guidance. Additionally, a channel attention network is employed to estimate the three-channel transmission. Experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of our framework over existing state-of-the-art techniques in the real-world image dehazing task. Phone-Hazy and code will be available at https://fanjunkai1.github.io/projectpage/NSDNet/index.html.

Domain Disentangled Generative Adversarial Network for Zero-Shot Sketch-Based 3D Shape Retrieval

Sketch-based 3D shape retrieval is a challenging task due to the large domain discrepancy between sketches and 3D shapes. Since existing methods are trained and evaluated on the same categories, they cannot effectively recognize the categories that have not been used during training. In this paper, we propose a novel domain disentangled generative adversarial network (DD-GAN) for zero-shot sketch-based 3D retrieval, which can retrieve the unseen categories that are not accessed during training. Specifically, we first generate domain-invariant features and domain-specific features by disentangling the learned features of sketches and 3D shapes, where the domain-invariant features are used to align with the corresponding word embeddings. Then, we develop a generative adversarial network that combines the domain-specific features of the seen categories with the aligned domain-invariant features to synthesize samples, where the synthesized samples of the unseen categories are generated by using the corresponding word embeddings. Finally, we use the synthesized samples of the unseen categories combined with the real samples of the seen categories to train the network for retrieval, so that the unseen categories can be recognized. In order to reduce the domain shift problem, we utilized unlabeled unseen samples to enhance the discrimination ability of the discriminator. With the discriminator distinguishing the generated samples from the unlabeled unseen samples, the generator can generate more realistic unseen samples. Extensive experiments on the SHREC'13 and SHREC'14 datasets show that our method significantly improves the retrieval performance of the unseen categories.

Generative Subgraph Contrast for Self-Supervised Graph Representation Learning

Contrastive learning has shown great promise in the field of graph representation learning. By manually constructing positive/negative samples, most graph contrastive learning methods rely on the vector inner product based similarity metric to distinguish the samples for graph representation. However, the handcrafted sample construction (e.g., the perturbation on the nodes or edges of the graph) may not effectively capture the intrinsic local structures of the graph. Also, the vector inner product based similarity metric cannot fully exploit the local structures of the graph to characterize the graph difference well. To this end, in this paper, we propose a novel adaptive subgraph generation based contrastive learning framework for efficient and robust self-supervised graph representation learning, and the optimal transport distance is utilized as the similarity metric between the subgraphs. It aims to generate contrastive samples by capturing the intrinsic structures of the graph and distinguish the samples based on the features and structures of subgraphs simultaneously. Specifically, for each center node, by adaptively learning relation weights to the nodes of the corresponding neighborhood, we first develop a network to generate the interpolated subgraph. We then construct the positive and negative pairs of subgraphs from the same and different nodes, respectively. Finally, we employ two types of optimal transport distances (i.e., Wasserstein distance and Gromov-Wasserstein distance) to construct the structured contrastive loss. Extensive node classification experiments on benchmark datasets verify the effectiveness of our graph contrastive learning method.

OTFace: Hard Samples Guided Optimal Transport Loss for Deep Face Representation

Face representation in the wild is extremely hard due to the large scale face variations. To this end, some deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been developed to learn discriminative feature by designing properly margin-based losses, which perform well on easy samples but fail on hard samples. Based on this, some methods mainly adjust the weights of hard samples in training stage to improve the feature discrimination. However, these methods overlook the feature distribution property which may lead to better results since the miss-classified hard samples may be corrected by using the distribution metric. This paper proposes the hard samples guided optimal transport (OT) loss for deep face representation, OTFace for short. OTFace aims to enhance the performance of hard samples by introducing the feature distribution discrepancy while maintain the performance on easy samples. Specifically, we embrace triplet scheme to indicate hard sample groups in one mini-batch during training. OT is then used to characterize the distribution differences of features from the high level convolutional layer. Finally, we integrate the margin-based-softmax (e.g. ArcFace or AM-Softmax) and OT to guide deep CNN learning. Extensive experiments are conducted on several benchmark databases. The quantitative results demonstrate the advantages of the proposed OTFace over state-of-the-art methods.

Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Point Cloud Semantic Segmentation via Graph Matching

Unsupervised domain adaptation for point cloud semantic segmentation has attracted great attention due to its effectiveness in learning with unlabeled data. Most of existing methods use global-level feature alignment to transfer the knowledge from the source domain to the target domain, which may cause the semantic ambiguity of the feature space. In this paper, we propose a graph-based framework to explore the local-level feature alignment between the two domains, which can reserve semantic discrimination during adaptation. Specifically, in order to extract local-level features, we first dynamically construct local feature graphs on both domains and build a memory bank with the graphs from the source domain. In particular, we use optimal transport to generate the graph matching pairs. Then, based on the assignment matrix, we can align the feature distributions between the two domains with the graph-based local feature loss. Furthermore, we consider the correlation between the features of different categories and formulate a category-guided contrastive loss to guide the segmentation model to learn discriminative features on the target domain. Extensive experiments on different synthetic-to-real and real-to-real domain adaptation scenarios demonstrate that our method can achieve state-of-the-art performance.

Progressive Point Cloud Deconvolution Generation Network

In this paper, we propose an effective point cloud generation method, which can generate multi-resolution point clouds of the same shape from a latent vector. Specifically, we develop a novel progressive deconvolution network with the learning-based bilateral interpolation. The learning-based bilateral interpolation is performed in the spatial and feature spaces of point clouds so that local geometric structure information of point clouds can be exploited. Starting from the low-resolution point clouds, with the bilateral interpolation and max-pooling operations, the deconvolution network can progressively output high-resolution local and global feature maps. By concatenating different resolutions of local and global feature maps, we employ the multi-layer perceptron as the generation network to generate multi-resolution point clouds. In order to keep the shapes of different resolutions of point clouds consistent, we propose a shape-preserving adversarial loss to train the point cloud deconvolution generation network. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.
