BlurDM: A Blur Diffusion Model for Image Deblurring

Diffusion models show promise for dynamic scene deblurring; however, existing studies often fail to leverage the intrinsic nature of the blurring process within diffusion models, limiting their full potential. To address it, we present a Blur Diffusion Model (BlurDM), which seamlessly integrates the blur formation process into diffusion for image deblurring. Observing that motion blur stems from continuous exposure, BlurDM implicitly models the blur formation process through a dual-diffusion forward scheme, diffusing both noise and blur onto a sharp image. During the reverse generation process, we derive a dual denoising and deblurring formulation, enabling BlurDM to recover the sharp image by simultaneously denoising and deblurring, given pure Gaussian noise conditioned on the blurred image as input. Additionally, to efficiently integrate BlurDM into deblurring networks, we perform BlurDM in the latent space, forming a flexible prior generation network for deblurring. Extensive experiments demonstrate that BlurDM significantly and consistently enhances existing deblurring methods on four benchmark datasets.

FineBench: Benchmarking and Enhancing Vision-Language Models for Fine-grained Human Activity Understanding

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in general video understanding, yet they often struggle with the fine-grained comprehension crucial for real-world applications requiring nuanced interpretation of human actions and interactions. While some recent human-centric benchmarks evaluate aspects of model behaviour such as fairness/ethics, emotion perception, and broader human-centric metrics, they do not combine long-form videos, very dense QA coverage, and frame-level spatial/temporal grounding at scale. To bridge this gap, we introduce FineBench, a human-centric video question answering (VQA) benchmark specifically designed to assess fine-grained understanding. FineBench comprises 199,420 multiple-choice QA pairs densely annotated across 64 long-form videos (15 minutes each), focusing on detailed person movement, person interaction, and object manipulation, including compositional actions. Our extensive evaluation reveals that while proprietary models like GPT-5 achieve respectable performance, current open-source VLMs significantly underperform, struggling particularly with spatial reasoning in multi-person scenes and distinguishing subtle differences in human movements and interactions. To address these identified weaknesses, we propose FineAgent, a modular framework that enhances VLMs by leveraging a Localizer and a Descriptor. Experiments show that FineAgent consistently improves the performance of various open VLMs on FineBench. FineBench provides a rigorous testbed for future research into fine-grained human-centric video understanding, while FineAgent offers a practical approach to enhance such reasoning in current VLMs.

GDPO: Group reward-Decoupled Normalization Policy Optimization for Multi-reward RL Optimization

As language models become increasingly capable, users expect them to provide not only accurate responses but also behaviors aligned with diverse human preferences across a variety of scenarios. To achieve this, Reinforcement learning (RL) pipelines have begun incorporating multiple rewards, each capturing a distinct preference, to guide models toward these desired behaviors. However, recent work has defaulted to apply Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) under multi-reward setting without examining its suitability. In this paper, we demonstrate that directly applying GRPO to normalize distinct rollout reward combinations causes them to collapse into identical advantage values, reducing the resolution of the training signal and resulting in suboptimal convergence and, in some cases, early training failure. We then introduce Group reward-Decoupled Normalization Policy Optimization (GDPO), a new policy optimization method to resolve these issues by decoupling the normalization of individual rewards, more faithfully preserving their relative differences and enabling more accurate multi-reward optimization, along with substantially improved training stability. We compare GDPO with GRPO across three tasks: tool calling, math reasoning, and coding reasoning, evaluating both correctness metrics (accuracy, bug ratio) and constraint adherence metrics (format, length). Across all settings, GDPO consistently outperforms GRPO, demonstrating its effectiveness and generalizability for multi-reward reinforcement learning optimization.

Action Segmentation with Joint Self-Supervised Temporal Domain Adaptation

Despite the recent progress of fully-supervised action segmentation techniques, the performance is still not fully satisfactory. One main challenge is the problem of spatiotemporal variations (e.g. different people may perform the same activity in various ways). Therefore, we exploit unlabeled videos to address this problem by reformulating the action segmentation task as a cross-domain problem with domain discrepancy caused by spatio-temporal variations. To reduce the discrepancy, we propose Self-Supervised Temporal Domain Adaptation (SSTDA), which contains two self-supervised auxiliary tasks (binary and sequential domain prediction) to jointly align cross-domain feature spaces embedded with local and global temporal dynamics, achieving better performance than other Domain Adaptation (DA) approaches. On three challenging benchmark datasets (GTEA, 50Salads, and Breakfast), SSTDA outperforms the current state-of-the-art method by large margins (e.g. for the F1@25 score, from 59.6% to 69.1% on Breakfast, from 73.4% to 81.5% on 50Salads, and from 83.6% to 89.1% on GTEA), and requires only 65% of the labeled training data for comparable performance, demonstrating the usefulness of adapting to unlabeled target videos across variations.
