Beyond Human Annotation: Recent Advances in Data Generation Methods for Document Intelligence

The advancement of Document Intelligence (DI) demands large-scale, high-quality training data, yet manual annotation remains a critical bottleneck. While data generation methods are evolving rapidly, existing surveys are constrained by fragmented focuses on single modalities or specific tasks, lacking a unified perspective aligned with real-world workflows. To fill this gap, this survey establishes the first comprehensive technical map for data generation in DI. Data generation is redefined as supervisory signal production, and a novel taxonomy is introduced based on the "availability of data and labels." This framework organizes methodologies into four resource-centric paradigms: Data Augmentation, Data Generation from Scratch, Automated Data Annotation, and Self-Supervised Signal Construction. Furthermore, a multi-level evaluation framework is established to integrate intrinsic quality and extrinsic utility, compiling performance gains across diverse DI benchmarks. Guided by this unified structure, the methodological landscape is dissected to reveal critical challenges such as fidelity gaps and frontiers including co-evolutionary ecosystems. Ultimately, by systematizing this fragmented field, data generation is positioned as the central engine for next-generation DI.

Physics-Constrained Cross-Resolution Enhancement Network for Optics-Guided Thermal UAV Image Super-Resolution

Optics-guided thermal UAV image super-resolution has attracted significant research interest due to its potential in all-weather monitoring applications. However, existing methods typically compress optical features to match thermal feature dimensions for cross-modal alignment and fusion, which not only causes the loss of high-frequency information that is beneficial for thermal super-resolution, but also introduces physically inconsistent artifacts such as texture distortions and edge blurring by overlooking differences in the imaging physics between modalities. To address these challenges, we propose PCNet to achieve cross-resolution mutual enhancement between optical and thermal modalities, while physically constraining the optical guidance process via thermal conduction to enable robust thermal UAV image super-resolution. In particular, we design a Cross-Resolution Mutual Enhancement Module (CRME) to jointly optimize thermal image super-resolution and optical-to-thermal modality conversion, facilitating effective bidirectional feature interaction across resolutions while preserving high-frequency optical priors. Moreover, we propose a Physics-Driven Thermal Conduction Module (PDTM) that incorporates two-dimensional heat conduction into optical guidance, modeling spatially-varying heat conduction properties to prevent inconsistent artifacts. In addition, we introduce a temperature consistency loss that enforces regional distribution consistency and boundary gradient smoothness to ensure generated thermal images align with real-world thermal radiation principles. Extensive experiments on VGTSR2.0 and DroneVehicle datasets demonstrate that PCNet significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods on both reconstruction quality and downstream tasks including semantic segmentation and object detection.

What Limits Vision-and-Language Navigation ?

Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) is a cornerstone of embodied intelligence. However, current agents often suffer from significant performance degradation when transitioning from simulation to real-world deployment, primarily due to perceptual instability (e.g., lighting variations and motion blur) and under-specified instructions. While existing methods attempt to bridge this gap by scaling up model size and training data, we argue that the bottleneck lies in the lack of robust spatial grounding and cross-domain priors. In this paper, we propose StereoNav, a robust Vision-Language-Action framework designed to enhance real-world navigation consistency. To address the inherent gap between synthetic training and physical execution, we introduce Target-Location Priors as a persistent bridge. These priors provide stable visual guidance that remains invariant across domains, effectively grounding the agent even when instructions are vague. Furthermore, to mitigate visual disturbances like motion blur and illumination shifts, StereoNav leverages stereo vision to construct a unified representation of semantics and geometry, enabling precise action prediction through enhanced depth awareness. Extensive experiments on R2R-CE and RxR-CE demonstrate that StereoNav achieves state-of-the-art egocentric RGB performance, with SR and SPL scores of 81.1% and 68.3%, and 67.5% and 52.0%, respectively, while using significantly fewer parameters and less training data than prior scaling-based approaches. More importantly, real-world robotic deployments confirm that StereoNav substantially improves navigation reliability in complex, unstructured environments.
