4DAnyone: Create Anyone in 4D from a Casual Monocular Video
Yudong Jin, Tao Xie, Qihang Zhang and 6 more
We present 4DAnyone, a framework for reconstructing 4D humans from an uncalibrated monocular video by generating reconstruction-grade multiview-consistent videos and lifting them into 4D Gaussian Splatting (4DGS). Existing camera-controlled video diffusion models synthesize plausible novel-view videos but fail to maintain consistency when scaled to the tens of target views required for 4DGS reconstruction. We identify this failure as a bounded-attention-context problem: when target views exceed the capacity of a single DiT forward pass, they must be split into groups, exposing two coupled bottlenecks. On the reference-context side, conditioning on all previously generated views grows as $O(N)$, weakening cross-view appearance guidance. On the target-context side, disjoint groups cannot directly exchange information, causing global structural drift. 4DAnyone addresses both bottlenecks with two complementary designs: Reference Context Packing (RCP) compresses growing reference views into a fixed-length mixed-resolution context with $O(1)$ reference-context complexity, while Target Context Routing (TCR) rotates target-view groupings during denoising to share context across groups at high-noise steps and stabilize details at low-noise steps. We further build the MVGameHuman dataset using our in-house game engine and combine it with light-stage and in-the-wild video datasets for training. Experiments on DNA-Rendering and DyMVHumans show that 4DAnyone outperforms prior methods in both novel-view video quality and downstream 4DGS reconstruction, with robust in-the-wild generalization.

CalcSeg: Confidence-aware 3D Latent Context Curriculum Learning For Myocardial Scar Segmentation From Single-Stack LGE-CMRs
Nivetha Jayakumar, Hannah Kim, Amit R. Patel and 1 more
Myocardial scar segmentation from single-stack late gadolinium-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) imaging has been a longstanding and clinically important challenge, particularly in the presence of low tissue contrast, diffuse, and small scar regions. These challenges are further intensified by the limited availability of 3D spatial context. This paper presents CalcSeg, a Confidence-aware latent context curriculum learning framework that leverages fused 3D feature representations from single-stack 2D LGE-CMR images for robust scar segmentation. Specifically, we introduce a dynamic semi-supervised curriculum learning strategy that progressively expands training from easier to more challenging scar cases using a learned confidence-aware scoring function. Such a function integrates errors in the predicted scar maps with quantified epistemic uncertainty and scar burden estimation to automatically assess sample difficulty without requiring manual labels. To compensate for the limited spatial context in single-stack acquisitions, we then develop a latent slice-wise self-attention to capture inter-slice dependencies and infer 3D spatial representations from sparse 2D inputs. We evaluate CalcSeg on multi-center clinical LGE-CMR datasets and benchmark against existing scar segmentation networks. Experimental results show that CalcSeg consistently outperforms all competing methods, particularly with substantial improvements on clinically challenging cases. Our code is released on Github.

Unwarping the Lens: A Physics-Grounded Approach to Video Glasses Removal
Radim Spetlik, David Futschik, Radek Danecek and 4 more
High-fidelity removal of eyeglasses from video is a major challenge in facial attribute editing, as the underlying facial geometry is often obscured by complex refractive distortions and view-dependent specular reflections. While large-scale generative priors have shown promise in eye-glasses removal via static image inpainting, they often lack the structural constraints necessary to maintain identity, expression, and pose, leading to visible "identity drift" in both static images and dynamic sequences. In this paper, we propose a novel transfer framework that addresses the stochastic nature of generative priors. Our pipeline first extracts high-fidelity synthetic face images from a commercial-grade generative model (Nano Banana, Gemini 3 Pro Image), regularizes them via a three-stage structural filtering process to preserve identity, expression, and pose, and finally applies physically-based simulation of lens optics during training to provide diverse, paired data. This process transfers Nano Banana's photo-realistic, multi-view knowledge into a specialized restoration architecture, JFSnet (Joint Feature-Spatial network). JFSnet integrates DINOv2-based semantic features with a convolutional decoder for spatial reconstruction, leveraging translation equivariance constraints to improve temporal consistency and high-frequency detail preservation. Evaluations on the curated Flickr-Faces-HQ (FFHQ) subset (12,163 images) show that our approach achieves high fidelity and structural accuracy, while maintaining inference speed of 27.68 FPS. In perceptual studies on CelebV-Text video sequences, our results are consistently preferred over diffusion and GAN-based baselines for ocular consistency, temporal stability, and overall restoration quality.

Inter-X++: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Multimodal Human-Human Interaction Analysis
Liang Xu, Chengqun Yang, Zili Lin and 6 more
The capability to perceive and synthesize human-human interactions is fundamental to developing intelligent digital human systems. However, existing datasets and modeling approaches are fundamentally constrained by low-fidelity kinematics, the omission of dexterous hand gestures and a severe lack of rich multimodal annotations. Furthermore, fragmented interaction representations and inconsistent evaluation protocols also impede fair and rigorous benchmarking. To systematically address these bottlenecks, we present Inter-X++, a comprehensive and large-scale benchmark designed to empower versatile HHI analysis. Captured via a novel hybrid motion capture system, Inter-X++ provides 11,388 high-fidelity interaction sequences and over 8.1M frames, featuring precise whole-body movements and detailed finger articulations. Meanwhile, we enrich the data foundation with multifaceted annotations, including hierarchical fine-grained textual descriptions, interaction categories, causal interaction orders, the relationship and personality of the subjects, as well as vertex-level contact maps and physically regularized constraints. Leveraging these elaborate annotations, we formulate a unified testing ground comprising four categories of downstream tasks that symmetrically span both generative and perceptive paradigms. To eliminate benchmarking ambiguities, we systematically standardize the interaction representations and evaluation protocols. Finally, we go beyond dataset construction to propose OpenHHI, a single and unified HHI representation and modeling framework that jointly optimizes interaction reconstruction and semantic understanding. Extensive experiments reveal that OpenHHI achieves state-of-the-art performance on both generation and perception tasks. This definitively proves that our unified representation successfully bridges interaction understanding and generation simultaneously.

HandMvNet: Real-Time 3D Hand Pose Estimation Using Multi-View Cross-Attention Fusion
Muhammad Asad Ali, Nadia Robertini, Didier Stricker
In this work, we present HandMvNet, one of the first real-time method designed to estimate 3D hand motion and shape from multi-view camera images. Unlike previous monocular approaches, which suffer from scale-depth ambiguities, our method ensures consistent and accurate absolute hand poses and shapes. This is achieved through a multi-view attention-fusion mechanism that effectively integrates features from multiple viewpoints. In contrast to previous multi-view methods, our approach eliminates the need for camera parameters as input to learn 3D geometry. HandMvNet also achieves a substantial reduction in inference time while delivering competitive results compared to the state-of-the-art methods, making it suitable for real-time applications. Evaluated on publicly available datasets, HandMvNet qualitatively and quantitatively outperforms previous methods under identical settings. Code is available at github.com/pyxploiter/handmvnet.
