VLHSA: Vision-Language Hierarchical Semantic Alignment for Jigsaw Puzzle Solving with Eroded Gaps (Student Abstract)
AAAI 2026technical
Jigsaw puzzle solving remains difficult because models must reconcile local fragment cues with global structure. Most prior work leans solely on visual signals (edge or texture coherence) and rarely exploits natural-language descriptions, which are especially helpful for puzzles with eroded gaps. We
