MotionMERGE: A Multi-granular Framework for Human Motion Editing, Reasoning, Generation, and Explanation

Recent motion-language models unify tasks like comprehension and generation but operate at a coarse granularity, lacking fine-grained understanding and nuanced control over body parts needed for animation or interaction. This stems from fundamental issues in both the model and the data, in which the model can't focus on motion's localized pattern, and the training data lacks fine-grained supervision. To tackle this, we propose MotionMERGE, a unified framework that bridges the granularity gap. First, we pioneer the study of fine-grained languageguided motion control, including detailed understanding and localized editing, by explicitly modeling motion at part and temporal levels within a single LLM, thereby endowing the model with robust priors for precise control. Second, we design ReasoningAware Granularity-Synergy pre-training, a novel strategy that employs joint supervision for cross-granularity alignment, temporal grounding, localized alignment, motion coherency, and motion-grounded chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning. This equips the model with fine-grained motion-language alignment, crossgranularity synergy, and explicit reasoning ability. Third, we curate MotionFineEdit, a large-scale dataset (837K atomic + 144K complex triplets) with the first fine-grained spatio-temporal corrective instructions and motion-grounded CoT annotations, establishing a new benchmark for fine-grained text-driven motion editing and motion-grounded reasoning. Extensive experiments demonstrate the capability of MotionMERGE for more precise motion generation, understanding, and editing, and compelling zero-shot generalization to other complex motion tasks. This work represents a significant step toward models that interact with motion in finer granularity and human-like reasoning.

Dynamically Masked Discriminator for Generative Adversarial Networks

Training Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) remains a challenging problem. The discriminator trains the generator by learning the distribution of real/generated data. However, the distribution of generated data changes throughout the training process, which is difficult for the discriminator to learn. In this paper, we propose a novel method for GANs from the viewpoint of online continual learning. We observe that the discriminator model, trained on historically generated data, often slows down its adaptation to the changes in the new arrival generated data, which accordingly decreases the quality of generated results. By treating the generated data in training as a stream, we propose to detect whether the discriminator slows down the learning of new knowledge in generated data. Therefore, we can explicitly enforce the discriminator to learn new knowledge fast. Particularly, we propose a new discriminator, which automatically detects its retardation and then dynamically masks its features, such that the discriminator can adaptively learn the temporally-vary distribution of generated data. Experimental results show our method outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches.

HEAP: Unsupervised Object Discovery and Localization with Contrastive Grouping

Unsupervised object discovery and localization aims to detect or segment objects in an image without any supervision. Recent efforts have demonstrated a notable potential to identify salient foreground objects by utilizing self-supervised transformer features. However, their scopes only build upon patch-level features within an image, neglecting region/image-level and cross-image relationships at a broader scale. Moreover, these methods cannot differentiate various semantics from multiple instances. To address these problems, we introduce Hierarchical mErging framework via contrAstive grouPing (HEAP). Specifically, a novel lightweight head with cross-attention mechanism is designed to adaptively group intra-image patches into semantically coherent regions based on correlation among self-supervised features. Further, to ensure the distinguishability among various regions, we introduce a region-level contrastive clustering loss to pull closer similar regions across images. Also, an image-level contrastive loss is present to push foreground and background representations apart, with which foreground objects and background are accordingly discovered. HEAP facilitates efficient hierarchical image decomposition, which contributes to more accurate object discovery while also enabling differentiation among objects of various classes. Extensive experimental results on semantic segmentation retrieval, unsupervised object discovery, and saliency detection tasks demonstrate that HEAP achieves state-of-the-art performance.

Cross Language Image Matching for Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation

It has been widely known that CAM (Class Activation Map) usually only activates discriminative object regions and falsely includes lots of object-related backgrounds. As only a fixed set of image-level object labels are available to the WSSS (weakly supervised semantic segmentation) model, it could be very difficult to suppress those diverse background regions consisting of open set objects. In this paper, we propose a novel Cross Language Image Matching (CLIMS) framework, based on the recently introduced Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) model, for WSSS. The core idea of our framework is to introduce natural language supervision to activate more complete object regions and suppress closely-related open background regions. In particular, we design object, background region and text label matching losses to guide the model to excite more reasonable object regions for CAM of each category. In addition, we design a co-occurring background suppression loss to prevent the model from activating closely-related background regions, with a predefined set of class-related background text descriptions. These designs enable the proposed CLIMS to generate a more complete and compact activation map for the target objects. Extensive experiments on PASCAL VOC2012 dataset show that our CLIMS significantly outperforms the previous state-of-the-art methods.

Frequency-driven Imperceptible Adversarial Attack on Semantic Similarity

Current adversarial attack research reveals the vulnerability of learning-based classifiers against carefully crafted perturbations. However, most existing attack methods have inherent limitations in cross-dataset generalization as they rely on a classification layer with a closed set of categories. Furthermore, the perturbations generated by these methods may appear in regions easily perceptible to the human visual system (HVS). To circumvent the former problem, we propose a novel algorithm that attacks semantic similarity on feature representations. In this way, we are able to fool classifiers without limiting attacks to a specific dataset. For imperceptibility, we introduce the low-frequency constraint to limit perturbations within high-frequency components, ensuring perceptual similarity between adversarial examples and originals. Extensive experiments on three datasets (CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and ImageNet-1K) and three public online platforms indicate that our attack can yield misleading and transferable adversarial examples across architectures and datasets. Additionally, visualization results and quantitative performance (in terms of four different metrics) show that the proposed algorithm generates more imperceptible perturbations than the state-of-the-art methods. Code is made available at.

Think about boundary: Fusing multi-level boundary information for landmark heatmap regression

Although current face alignment algorithms have obtained pretty good performances at predicting the location of facial landmarks, huge challenges remain for faces with severe occlusion and large pose variations, etc. On the contrary, semantic location of facial boundary is more likely to be reserved and estimated on these scenes. Therefore, we study a two-stage but end-to-end approach for exploring the relationship between the facial boundary and landmarks to get boundary-aware landmark predictions, which consists of two modules: the self-calibrated boundary estimation (SCBE) module and the boundary-aware landmark transform (BALT) module. In the SCBE module, we modify the stem layers and employ intermediate supervision to help generate high-quality facial boundary heatmaps. Boundary-aware features inherited from the SCBE module are integrated into the BALT module in a multi-scale fusion framework to better model the transformation from boundary to landmark heatmap. Experimental results conducted on the challenging benchmark datasets demonstrate that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods in the literature.
