Decoupling Endpoint and Semantic Transition Learning for Zero-Shot Composed Image Retrieval

Zero-shot composed image retrieval (ZS-CIR) retrieves a target image from a reference image and a text modification without human-annotated CIR triplets. Projection-based ZS-CIR methods are attractive because they do not rely on LLMs at inference and remain lightweight, but they often underperform LLM-based approaches on complex semantic modifications. This gap reflects a semantic transition bottleneck in projection-based ZS-CIR: endpoint-level matching can let the edit text act as a target-side attribute cue rather than grounding it as a source-conditioned semantic transition. We further show that adding semantic transition supervision to the same text adapter creates an endpoint--transition conflict between endpoint alignment and semantic transition alignment. To address this conflict, DeCIR decouples endpoint and transition learning. It constructs paired forward/reverse edit tuples from image-caption pairs, trains separate low-rank text adapter branches for endpoint alignment and semantic transition alignment, and merges them with Low-Rank Directional Merge (LRDM) into one deployable adapter. Extensive experiments on CIRR, CIRCO, FashionIQ, and GeneCIS demonstrate that DeCIR consistently improves projection-based ZS-CIR without increasing inference complexity.

FalconFS: Distributed File System for Large-Scale Deep Learning Pipeline

Client-side metadata caching has long been considered an effective method for accelerating metadata operations in distributed file systems (DFSs). However, we have found that client-side state (e.g., caching) is not only ineffective but also consumes valuable memory resources in the deep learning pipelines. We thus propose FalconFS, a DFS optimized for deep learning pipelines with the stateless-client architecture. Specifically, instead of performing client-side path resolution and caching, FalconFS efficiently resolves paths on the server side using hybrid metadata indexing and lazy namespace replication. FalconFS also boosts server concurrency with concurrent request merging and provides easy deployment with VFS shortcut. Evaluations against CephFS and Lustre show that FalconFS achieves up to 5.72$\times$ throughput for small file read/write and up to 12.81$\times$ throughput for deep learning model training. FalconFS has been running in Huawei autonomous driving system's production environment with 10,000 NPUs for one year and has been open-sourced.

GaMMA: Towards Joint Global-Temporal Music Understanding in Large Multimodal Models

In this paper, we propose GaMMA, a state-of-the-art (SoTA) large multimodal model (LMM) designed to achieve comprehensive musical content understanding. GaMMA inherits the streamlined encoder-decoder design of LLaVA, enabling effective cross-modal learning between music and language. By incorporating audio encoders in a mixture-of-experts manner, GaMMA effectively unifies both time-series and non-time-series music understanding tasks within one set of parameters. Our approach combines carefully curated datasets at scale with a progressive training pipeline, effectively pushing the boundaries of music understanding via pretraining, supervised fine-tuning (SFT), and reinforcement learning (RL). To comprehensively assess both temporal and non-temporal capability of music LMMs, we introduce MusicBench, the largest music-oriented benchmark, comprising 3,739 human-curated multiple-choice questions covering diverse aspects of musical understanding. Extensive experiments demonstrate that GaMMA establishes new SoTA in the music domain, achieving 79.1% accuracy on MuchoMusic, 79.3% on MusicBench-Temporal, and 81.3% on MusicBench-Global, consistently outperforming previous methods.

SDEval: Safety Dynamic Evaluation for Multimodal Large Language Models

In the rapidly evolving landscape of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), the safety concerns of their outputs have earned significant attention. Although numerous datasets have been proposed, they may become outdated with MLLM advancements and are susceptible to data contamination issues. To address these problems, we propose \textbf{SDEval}, the \textit{first} safety dynamic evaluation framework to controllably adjust the distribution and complexity of safety benchmarks. Specifically, SDEval mainly adopts three dynamic strategies: text, image, and text-image dynamics to generate new samples from original benchmarks. We first explore the individual effects of text and image dynamics on model safety. Then, we find that injecting text dynamics into images can further impact safety, and conversely, injecting image dynamics into text also leads to safety risks. SDEval is general enough to be applied to various existing safety and even capability benchmarks. Experiments across safety benchmarks, MLLMGuard and VLSBench, and capability benchmarks, MMBench and MMVet, show that SDEval significantly influences safety evaluation, mitigates data contamination, and exposes safety limitations of MLLMs. Code is available at https://github.com/hq-King/SDEval

3D Object Detection with a Self-supervised Lidar Scene Flow Backbone

State-of-the-art lidar-based 3D object detection methods rely on supervised learning and large labeled datasets. However, annotating lidar data is resource-consuming, and depending only on supervised learning limits the applicability of trained models. Self-supervised training strategies can alleviate these issues by learning a general point cloud backbone model for downstream 3D vision tasks. Against this backdrop, we show the relationship between self-supervised multi-frame flow representations and single-frame 3D detection hypotheses. Our main contribution leverages learned flow and motion representations and combines a self-supervised backbone with a supervised 3D detection head. First, a self-supervised scene flow estimation model is trained with cycle consistency. Then, the point cloud encoder of this model is used as the backbone of a single-frame 3D object detection head model. This second 3D object detection model learns to utilize motion representations to distinguish dynamic objects exhibiting different movement patterns. Experiments on KITTI and nuScenes benchmarks show that the proposed self-supervised pre-training increases 3D detection performance significantly. https://github.com/emecercelik/ssl-3d-detection.git
