Neural simulators promise efficient surrogates for physics simulation, but scaling them is bottlenecked by the prohibitive cost of generating high-fidelity training data. Pre-training on abundant off-the-shelf geometries offers a natural alternative, yet faces a fundamental gap: supervision on stati…
Scaling artist-designed meshes to high triangle numbers remains challenging for autoregressive generative models.

Differentiable simulators have advanced policy learning and model-based control across diverse robotic tasks. To date, actuator dynamics remain underexplored and are a major source of sim-to-real error, especially on low-cost platforms where the linear current–torque model τ = K_tI breaks down under…
Segmenting 3D objects into parts is a long-standing challenge in computer vision.

Autoregressive point cloud generation has long lagged behind diffusion-based approaches in quality. The performance gap stems from the fact that autoregressive models impose an artificial ordering on inherently unordered point sets, forcing shape generation to proceed as a sequence of local predicti
Generating high-quality videos from complex temporal descriptions, which refer to prompts containing multiple sequential actions, remains a significant challenge. Existing methods are constrained by an inherent trade-off: using multiple short prompts fed sequentially into the model improves action f…
