Backdoor attacks on deep neural networks (DNNs) have garnered significant attention, particularly in edge computing applications. Given the complexity and opacity of DNNs, defending against backdoor attacks remains a formidable challenge. To address this, we propose CL-Guard, a dual-network-based de
Inspired by the success of Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback (RLHF) in image generation, recent work has adapted reward-based learning to image super-resolution (ISR) by using Image Quality Assessment (IQA) models as rewards. However, existing IQA models typically output only a single globa
3D single object tracking (SOT) in point clouds is essential for real-world 3D perception, yet it remains challenging due to data sparsity and large variations in scale and structure across diverse object categories. Most existing methods rely on a category-specific paradigm that trains separate mod
Recent studies have extended Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) to autoregressive (AR) visual generation and achieved promising progress. However, existing methods typically apply uniform optimization across all image tokens, while the varying contributions of different image toke…
Visual tracking aims to estimate target states in video sequences, with applications spanning diverse computational requirements. Recent methods optimize trackers using manually pruned image tokens with a fixed budget to reduce computational costs. However, these trackers, once trained, are constrai…
Recent unified models have made unprecedented progress in both understanding and generation. However, while most of them accept multi-modal inputs, they typically produce only single-modality outputs. This challenge of producing interleaved content is mainly due to training data scarcity and the dif
The rise in sophisticated image forgery techniques, driven by advancements in image editing and generation, has posed new security challenges.

All-in-one models for adverse weather removal aim to process various degraded images using a single set of parameters, making them ideal for real-world scenarios. However, they encounter two main challenges: catastrophic forgetting and limited degradation awareness. The former causes the model to lo…
Existing ultra-high-definition (UHD) image restoration methods often struggle with consistency due to downsampling.

Long video generation involves generating extended videos using models trained on short videos, suffering from distribution shifts due to varying frame counts. It necessitates the use of local information from the original short frames to enhance visual and motion quality, and global information fro…
Ultra-High Definition (UHD) image restoration struggles to balance computational efficiency and detail retention. While Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) offer improved efficiency by operating in the latent space, with the Gaussian variational constraint, this compression preserves semantics but sacri…
