Cross-Modal Semantic-Enhanced Diffusion Framework for Diabetic Retinopathy Grading

Automated grading of diabetic retinopathy (DR) faces several critical challenges: subtle inter-grade visual distinctions in fine-grained lesion patterns, distributional discrepancies induced by heterogeneous imaging devices and acquisition conditions, and the inherent inability of purely visual approaches to exploit clinical semantic knowledge. In this paper, we propose CLIP-Guided Semantic Diffusion (CGSD), a DR grading framework that synergistically integrates vision-language pretraining with diffusion probabilistic modeling. We adopt a domain-specific vision-language model tailored for DR grading as the semantic guidance module and adapt it to the target domain via Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA), effectively bridging the distributional gap between the pretrained model and the target dataset with only a minimal number of trainable parameters. Building on this foundation, we construct a cross-modal semantic conditioning vector by computing the dot product between image features and the text description features of each DR grade, yielding a joint representation that simultaneously encodes visual content and clinical-grade semantics. This vector serves as the conditioning signal for the diffusion denoising network, replacing the structurally complex dual-branch visual prior employed in existing diffusion-based classification methods. Experiments on the APTOS 2019 dataset demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves an accuracy of 87.5% and a macro-averaged F1 score of 0.731, outperforming a variety of representative methods. Ablation studies further validate the independent contribution of each constituent module.

ACDNet: Adaptively Combined Dilated Convolution for Monocular Panorama Depth Estimation

Depth estimation is a crucial step for 3D reconstruction with panorama images in recent years. Panorama images maintain the complete spatial information but introduce distortion with equirectangular projection. In this paper, we propose an ACDNet based on the adaptively combined dilated convolution to predict the dense depth map for a monocular panoramic image. Specifically, we combine the convolution kernels with different dilations to extend the receptive field in the equirectangular projection. Meanwhile, we introduce an adaptive channel-wise fusion module to summarize the feature maps and get diverse attention areas in the receptive field along the channels. Due to the utilization of channel-wise attention in constructing the adaptive channel-wise fusion module, the network can capture and leverage the cross-channel contextual information efficiently. Finally, we conduct depth estimation experiments on three datasets (both virtual and real-world) and the experimental results demonstrate that our proposed ACDNet substantially outperforms the current state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods. Our codes and model parameters are accessed in https://github.com/zcq15/ACDNet.

DS-MVSNet: Unsupervised Multi-view Stereo via Depth Synthesis

In recent years, supervised or unsupervised learning-based MVS methods achieved excellent performance compared with traditional methods. However, these methods only use the probability volume computed by cost volume regularization to predict reference depths and this manner cannot mine enough information from the probability volume. Furthermore, the unsupervised methods usually try to use two-step or additional inputs for training which make the procedure more complicated. In this paper, we propose the DS-MVSNet, an end-to-end unsupervised MVS structure with the source depths synthesis. To mine the information in probability volume, we creatively synthesize the source depths by splattering the probability volume and depth hypotheses to source views. Meanwhile, we propose the adaptive Gaussian sampling and improved adaptive bins sampling approach that improve the depths hypotheses accuracy. On the other hand, we utilize the source depths to render the reference images and propose depth consistency loss and depth smoothness loss. These can provide additional guidance according to photometric and geometric consistency in different views without additional inputs. Finally, we conduct a series of experiments on the DTU dataset and Tanks & Temples dataset that demonstrate the efficiency and robustness of our DS-MVSNet compared with the state-of-the-art methods.

Learning the Crystal Structure Genome for Property Classification

Materials property predictions have improved from advances in machine learning algorithms, delivering materials discoveries and novel insights through data-driven models of structure-property relationships. Nearly all available models rely on featurization of materials composition, however, whether the exclusive use of structural knowledge in such models has the capacity to make comparable predictions remains unknown. Here we employ a deep neural network model to decode structure-property relationships in crystalline materials without explicitly considering chemical compositions. The focus is on classification of crystal systems, mechanical elasticity, electronic band gap, and phase stability. Our model utilizes a three-dimensional (3D) momentum space representation of structure from elastic x-ray scattering theory that exhibits rotation and permutation invariance. We perform novel ablation studies to help interpret the model performance by perturbing the physically meaningful input features (i.e., the diffraction patterns) instead of tuning the architecture of the learning model as in conventional ablation methods. We find that the spatial symmetry of the 3D diffraction patterns, which reflects crystalline symmetry operations, is more important than the diffraction intensities contained within for the model to make a successful classification. Our work showcases the potential of using statistical learning models to help understand materials physics, rather than performing predictive and generative tasks as in most materials informatics research. We also argue that learning the crystal structure genome in a chemistry-agnostic manner demonstrates that some crystal structures inherently host high propensities for optimal materials properties, which enables the decoupling of structure and composition for future codesign of multifunctionality.

MGCN: Descriptor Learning using Multiscale GCNs

We propose a novel framework for computing descriptors for characterizing points on three-dimensional surfaces. First, we present a new non-learned feature that uses graph wavelets to decompose the Dirichlet energy on a surface. We call this new feature wavelet energy decomposition signature (WEDS). Second, we propose a new multiscale graph convolutional network (MGCN) to transform a non-learned feature to a more discriminative descriptor. Our results show that the new descriptor WEDS is more discriminative than the current state-of-the-art non-learned descriptors and that the combination of WEDS and MGCN is better than the state-of-the-art learned descriptors. An important design criterion for our descriptor is the robustness to different surface discretizations including triangulations with varying numbers of vertices. Our results demonstrate that previous graph convolutional networks significantly overfit to a particular resolution or even a particular triangulation, but MGCN generalizes well to different surface discretizations. In addition, MGCN is compatible with previous descriptors and it can also be used to improve the performance of other descriptors, such as the heat kernel signature, the wave kernel signature, or the local point signature.
