Shaoyuan Xie, Zihan Zhang, Jingxuan Wang +6
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models are gaining attention in autonomous driving, inheriting commonsense priors from large language models (LLMs) and widening the navigation interfa…
VITAL: From Visual Motion to Precise Action
Ao Liang, Youquan Liu, Mingxiao Li +7
World-action models aim to turn visual anticipation into driving decisions, yet typically train action experts on trajectory representations defined independently of visual dynamic…
On-Policy Self-Distillation in Diffusion Models
Wei Zhou, Xiongwei Zhu, Lingdong Kong +14
Reinforcement learning can align diffusion models with human preferences and task-specific objectives, but endpoint rewards do not specify how an intermediate denoising prediction…
NTIRE 2026 Low-light Enhancement: Twilight Cowboy Challenge
Aleksei Khalin, Egor Ershov, Artyom Panshin +46
This paper presents a review of the NTIRE 2026 Low-light Enhancement: Twilight Cowboy Challenge. The objective of the competition was to merge a set of misaligned smartphone images…
Data Pyramid for Embodied Manipulation: A Survey
Yifan Ye, Yankai Fu, Yaoxu Lv +26
Multimodal foundation models learned to see and to speak by consuming the whole internet. Embodied agents admit no such shortcut, since they require data that couple observations w…
Quo Vadis, World Modeling?
Yu Yang, Xuemeng Yang, Licheng Wen +17
Continually improving agents require dynamic interaction feedback beyond static supervision, yet direct real-environment interaction is costly, slow, unsafe, and hard to paralleliz…
Do Time Series Foundation Model Benchmarks Hide Regime-Dependent Failures? Evidence from Traffic Speed Forecasting
Yingshuo Wang, Xian Sun, Lingdong Kong +4
Standard benchmarks evaluate time series foundation models (TSFMs) using aggregate metrics, but these can mask severe failures in critical operating regimes. We introduce regime-st…
Semantic-Aware, Physics-Informed, Geometry-Grounded Weather Video Synthesis
Chenghao Qian, Nedko Savov, Lingdong Kong +7
Weather synthesis aims to add weather effects to input videos while preserving scene identity, structure, and motion. The key limitation of existing methods is the lack of diversit…
