3D-Agent:Tri-Modal Multi-Agent Collaboration for Scalable 3D Object Annotation

Driven by applications in autonomous driving robotics and augmented reality 3D object annotation presents challenges beyond 2D annotation including spatial complexity occlusion and viewpoint inconsistency Existing approaches based on single models often struggle to address these issues effectively We propose Tri MARF a novel framework that integrates tri modal inputs including 2D multi view images textual descriptions and 3D point clouds within a multi agent collaborative architecture to enhance large scale 3D annotation Tri MARF consists of three specialized agents a vision language model agent for generating multi view descriptions an information aggregation agent for selecting optimal descriptions and a gating agent that aligns textual semantics with 3D geometry for refined captioning Extensive experiments on Objaverse LVIS Objaverse XL and ABO demonstrate that Tri MARF substantially outperforms existing methods achieving a CLIPScore of 88 point 7 compared to prior state of the art methods retrieval accuracy of 45 point 2 and 43 point 8 on ViLT R at 5 and a throughput of up to 12000 objects per hour on a single NVIDIA A100 GPU

How Do Document Parsers Break? Auditing Structural Vulnerability in Document Intelligence

Document Layout Analysis (DLA) pipelines provide structured page representations for retrieval-augmented generation, long-document question answering, and other document intelligence systems, yet their robustness evaluation remains largely area-centric. We identify this Footprint Bias and propose a lightweight output-level auditing framework that decouples probe construction, policy-driven targeting, and structure-aware diagnosis. The framework combines Block-level Structural Loss Rate (B-SLR), granularity-aware exposure descriptors, and pathway attribution to analyze where perturbations interact with layout structure and how failures propagate. Across MinerU and PP-StructureV3 on 1,000 pages, affected area weakly tracks perturbation-induced OCR instability (R^2=0.384/0.110), whereas B-SLR aligns much more closely with it (R^2=0.727/0.916). Exposure descriptors further separate occlusion- and topology-dominant pathways, and small structurally targeted probes cause downstream QA/retrieval degradation comparable to larger-footprint perturbations. These results shift DLA robustness evaluation from footprint-based stress testing toward structure-aware vulnerability auditing.

LASAR: Towards Spatio-temporal Reasoning with Latent Cognitive Map

A fundamental challenge in embodied AI is verifying if agents build internal models of spatial structure or merely learn to mimic task-specific expert trajectories. This is critical as foundational approaches rooted in action-centric tasks (e.g., VLN) and reasoning-centric tasks (e.g., EQA) often share a common limitation: they lack a learning signal that forces them to encode fine-grained spatial relationships (like topology or distance) over long-range, fragmented experiences. To address this, we first propose LASAR, an architecture featuring a dual-memory system designed to maintain both episodic experiences and a semantic cognitive map. We then introduce Spatio-temporal Contextual Representation Learning (ST-CRL), a contrastive objective designed to train this architecture. ST-CRL leverages spatio-temporal cues from cognitive queries generated through annotated spatio-temporal context in simulation to build sample pairs, thereby forming the internal cognitive map from the agent's experiences. Experiments demonstrate that our method achieves 2\%-3.5\% gains in both zero-shot generalization on standard VLN-CE and VSI-Bench benchmarks. We also demonstrate that our proposed cognitive map has high self-consistency.

Robust Egocentric Referring Video Object Segmentation via Dual-Modal Causal Intervention

Egocentric Referring Video Object Segmentation (Ego-RVOS) aims to segment the specific object actively involved in a human action, as described by a language query, within first-person videos. This task is critical for understanding egocentric human behavior. However, achieving such segmentation robustly is challenging due to ambiguities inherent in egocentric videos and biases present in training data. Consequently, existing methods often struggle, learning spurious correlations from skewed object-action pairings in datasets and fundamental visual confounding factors of the egocentric perspective, such as rapid motion and frequent occlusions. To address these limitations, we introduce Causal Ego-REferring Segmentation (CERES), a plug-in causal framework that adapts strong, pre-trained RVOS backbones to the egocentric domain. CERES implements dual-modal causal intervention: applying backdoor adjustment principles to counteract language representation biases learned from dataset statistics, and leveraging front-door adjustment concepts to address visual confounding by intelligently integrating semantic visual features with geometric depth information guided by causal principles, creating representations more robust to egocentric distortions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CERES achieves state-of-the-art performance on Ego-RVOS benchmarks, highlighting the potential of applying causal reasoning to build more reliable models for broader egocentric video understanding.

Continuous Transition: Improving Sample Efficiency for Continuous Control Problems via MixUp

Although deep reinforcement learning (RL) has been successfully applied to a variety of robotic control tasks, it's still challenging to apply it to real-world tasks, due to the poor sample efficiency. Attempting to overcome this shortcoming, several works focus on reusing the collected trajectory data during the training by decomposing them into a set of policy-irrelevant discrete transitions. However, their improvements are somewhat marginal since i) the amount of the transitions is usually small, and ii) the value assignment only happens in the joint states. To address these issues, this paper introduces a concise yet powerful method to construct Continuous Transition, which exploits the trajectory information by exploiting the potential transitions along the trajectory. Specifically, we propose to synthesize new transitions for training by linearly interpolating the consecutive transitions. To keep the constructed transitions authentic, we also develop a discriminator to guide the construction process automatically. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed method achieves a significant improvement in sample efficiency on various complex continuous robotic control problems in MuJoCo and outperforms the advanced model-based / model-free RL methods.

Linguistically Driven Graph Capsule Network for Visual Question Reasoning

Recently, studies of visual question answering have explored various architectures of end-to-end networks and achieved promising results on both natural and synthetic datasets, which require explicitly compositional reasoning. However, it has been argued that these black-box approaches lack interpretability of results, and thus cannot perform well on generalization tasks due to overfitting the dataset bias. In this work, we aim to combine the benefits of both sides and overcome their limitations to achieve an end-to-end interpretable structural reasoning for general images without the requirement of layout annotations. Inspired by the property of a capsule network that can carve a tree structure inside a regular convolutional neural network (CNN), we propose a hierarchical compositional reasoning model called the "Linguistically driven Graph Capsule Network", where the compositional process is guided by the linguistic parse tree. Specifically, we bind each capsule in the lowest layer to bridge the linguistic embedding of a single word in the original question with visual evidence and then route them to the same capsule if they are siblings in the parse tree. This compositional process is achieved by performing inference on a linguistically driven conditional random field (CRF) and is performed across multiple graph capsule layers, which results in a compositional reasoning process inside a CNN. Experiments on the CLEVR dataset, CLEVR compositional generation test, and FigureQA dataset demonstrate the effectiveness and composition generalization ability of our end-to-end model.
