CURE-OOD: Benchmarking Out-of-Distribution Detection for Survival Prediction

``How long can I live and remain free of cancer?'' is often the first question a patient asks after receiving a cancer diagnosis and treatment. Accurate survival prediction helps alleviate psychological distress and supports risk stratification and personalized treatment planning. Recent survival prediction frameworks have shown strong performance using computed tomography (CT) images. However, variations in imaging acquisition introduce out-of-distribution (OOD) samples caused by covariate shifts that undermine model reliability. Despite this challenge, to our knowledge, no existing benchmark systematically studies OOD detection in cancer survival prediction. To address this gap, we introduce the Cancer sURvival bEnchmark for OOD Detection (CURE-OOD), the first benchmark for systematically evaluating OOD detection in survival prediction under controlled acquisition-induced distribution shifts. CURE-OOD defines scanner-parameter-based training, in-distribution (ID), and OOD test splits across four survival prediction tasks. Our experiments show that covariate shifts notably reduce survival prediction performance. It also shows that mainstream classification-oriented OOD detectors can fail in survival prediction. Finally, we include HazardDev as a simple survival-aware reference baseline for OOD detection. CURE-OOD enables systematic analysis of how distribution shifts affect both downstream survival performance and OOD detectability.

Learnability-Driven Submodular Optimization for Active Roadside 3D Detection

Roadside perception datasets are typically constructed via cooperative labeling between synchronized vehicle and roadside frame pairs. However, real deployment often requires annotation of roadside-only data due to hardware and privacy constraints. Even human experts struggle to produce accurate labels without vehicle-side data (image, LIDAR), which not only increases annotation difficulty and cost, but also reveals a fundamental learnability problem: many roadside-only scenes contain distant, blurred, or occluded objects whose 3D properties are ambiguous from a single view and can only be reliably annotated by cross-checking paired vehicle--roadside frames. We refer to such cases as inherently ambiguous samples. To reduce wasted annotation effort on inherently ambiguous samples while still obtaining high-performing models, we turn to active learning. This work focuses on active learning for roadside monocular 3D object detection and proposes a learnability-driven framework that selects scenes which are both informative and reliably labelable, suppressing inherently ambiguous samples while ensuring coverage. Experiments demonstrate that our method, LH3D, achieves 86.06%, 67.32%, and 78.67% of full-performance for vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists respectively, using only 25% of the annotation budget on DAIR-V2X-I, significantly outperforming uncertainty-based baselines. This confirms that learnability, not uncertainty, matters for roadside 3D perception.

WonderHuman: Hallucinating Unseen Parts in Dynamic 3D Human Reconstruction

In this paper, we present WonderHuman to reconstruct dynamic human avatars from a monocular video for high-fidelity novel view synthesis. Previous dynamic human avatar reconstruction methods typically require the input video to have full coverage of the observed human body. However, in daily practice, one typically has access to limited viewpoints, such as monocular front-view videos, making it a cumbersome task for previous methods to reconstruct the unseen parts of the human avatar. To tackle the issue, we present WonderHuman, which leverages 2D generative diffusion model priors to achieve high-quality, photorealistic reconstructions of dynamic human avatars from monocular videos, including accurate rendering of unseen body parts. Our approach introduces a Dual-Space Optimization technique, applying Score Distillation Sampling (SDS) in both canonical and observation spaces to ensure visual consistency and enhance realism in dynamic human reconstruction. Additionally, we present a View Selection strategy and Pose Feature Injection to enforce the consistency between SDS predictions and observed data, ensuring pose-dependent effects and higher fidelity in the reconstructed avatar. In the experiments, our method achieves SOTA performance in producing photorealistic renderings from the given monocular video, particularly for those challenging unseen parts.

Clipped Hyperbolic Classifiers Are Super-Hyperbolic Classifiers

Hyperbolic space can naturally embed hierarchies, unlike Euclidean space. Hyperbolic Neural Networks (HNNs) exploit such representational power by lifting Euclidean features into hyperbolic space for classification, outperforming Euclidean neural networks (ENNs) on datasets with known semantic hierarchies. However, HNNs underperform ENNs on standard benchmarks without clear hierarchies, greatly restricting HNNs' applicability in practice. Our key insight is that HNNs' poorer general classification performance results from vanishing gradients during backpropagation, caused by their hybrid architecture connecting Euclidean features to a hyperbolic classifier. We propose an effective solution by simply clipping the Euclidean feature magnitude while training HNNs. Our experiments demonstrate that clipped HNNs become super-hyperbolic classifiers: They are not only consistently better than HNNs which already outperform ENNs on hierarchical data, but also on-par with ENNs on MNIST, CIFAR10, CIFAR100 and ImageNet benchmarks, with better adversarial robustness and out-of-distribution detection.

CO-SNE: Dimensionality Reduction and Visualization for Hyperbolic Data

Hyperbolic space can naturally embed hierarchies that often exist in real-world data and semantics. While high-dimensional hyperbolic embeddings lead to better representations, most hyperbolic models utilize low-dimensional embeddings, due to non-trivial optimization and visualization of high-dimensional hyperbolic data. We propose CO-SNE, which extends the Euclidean space visualization tool, t-SNE, to hyperbolic space. Like t-SNE, it converts distances between data points to joint probabilities and tries to minimize the Kullback-Leibler divergence between the joint probabilities of high-dimensional data $X$ and low-dimensional embedding $Y$. However, unlike Euclidean space, hyperbolic space is inhomogeneous: A volume could contain a lot more points at a location far from the origin. CO-SNE thus uses hyperbolic normal distributions for $X$ and hyperbolic \underline{C}auchy instead of t-SNE's Student's t-distribution for $Y$, and it additionally seeks to preserve $X$'s individual distances to the \underline{O}rigin in $Y$. We apply CO-SNE to naturally hyperbolic data and supervisedly learned hyperbolic features. Our results demonstrate that CO-SNE deflates high-dimensional hyperbolic data into a low-dimensional space without losing their hyperbolic characteristics, significantly outperforming popular visualization tools such as PCA, t-SNE, UMAP, and HoroPCA which is also designed for hyperbolic data.

Unsupervised Hierarchical Semantic Segmentation with Multiview Cosegmentation and Clustering Transformers

Unsupervised semantic segmentation aims to discover groupings within and across images that capture object and view-invariance of a category without external supervision. Grouping naturally has levels of granularity, creating ambiguity in unsupervised segmentation. Existing methods avoid this ambiguity and treat it as a factor outside modeling, whereas we embrace it and desire hierarchical grouping consistency for unsupervised segmentation. We approach unsupervised segmentation as a pixel-wise feature learning problem. Our idea is that a good representation shall reveal not just a particular level of grouping, but any level of grouping in a consistent and predictable manner. We enforce spatial consistency of grouping and bootstrap feature learning with co-segmentation among multiple views of the same image, and enforce semantic consistency across the grouping hierarchy with clustering transformers between coarse- and fine-grained features. We deliver the first data-driven unsupervised hierarchical semantic segmentation method called Hierarchical Segment Grouping (HSG). Capturing visual similarity and statistical co-occurrences, HSG also outperforms existing unsupervised segmentation methods by a large margin on five major object- and scene-centric benchmarks. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/twke18/HSG .

A Broader Study of Cross-Domain Few-Shot Learning

Recent progress on few-shot learning largely relies on annotated data for meta-learning: base classes sampled from the same domain as the novel classes. However, in many applications, collecting data for meta-learning is infeasible or impossible. This leads to the cross-domain few-shot learning problem, where there is a large shift between base and novel class domains. While investigations of the cross-domain few-shot scenario exist, these works are limited to natural images that still contain a high degree of visual similarity. No work yet exists that examines few-shot learning across different imaging methods seen in real world scenarios, such as aerial and medical imaging. In this paper, we propose the Broader Study of Cross-Domain Few-Shot Learning (BSCD-FSL) benchmark, consisting of image data from a diverse assortment of image acquisition methods. This includes natural images, such as crop disease images, but additionally those that present with an increasing dissimilarity to natural images, such as satellite images, dermatology images, and radiology images. Extensive experiments on the proposed benchmark are performed to evaluate state-of-art meta-learning approaches, transfer learning approaches, and newer methods for cross-domain few-shot learning. The results demonstrate that state-of-art meta-learning methods are surprisingly outperformed by earlier meta-learning approaches, and all meta-learning methods underperform in relation to simple fine-tuning by 12.8% average accuracy. Performance gains previously observed with methods specialized for cross-domain few-shot learning vanish in this more challenging benchmark. Finally, accuracy of all methods tend to correlate with dataset similarity to natural images, verifying the value of the benchmark to better represent the diversity of data seen in practice and guiding future research.
