Diffusion Transformers for Roof Graph Synthesis and Reconstruction
Daniel Panangian, Ksenia Bittner
We present RoofDiT, a generative framework for 2D roof graph synthesis and reconstruction. Roofs are compactly described as planar graphs of junctions and structural edges, but existing methods often rely on fixed geometric rules or direct reconstruction objectives. RoofDiT instead models roof structures directly as vertex-edge graphs and learns a conditional generative prior over their geometry and connectivity. Our framework follows a two-stage design: a diffusion transformer generates roof vertices, and an edge prediction module infers the corresponding graph topology. To improve geometric fidelity, RoofDiT combines relative geometry-aware attention with footprint and aerial-image conditioning, while using an alignment regularizer to encourage common horizontal, vertical, and diagonal roof patterns. The same model supports unconditional generation, footprint-conditioned synthesis, and image-guided reconstruction by changing the conditioning signal. Experiments show improved graph generation quality over a diffusion baseline, favorable performance against a straight-skeleton prior in the footprint-conditioned setting, and the highest edge F1 among compared methods for image-guided reconstruction.

MIMONet: Multi-scale Input and Multi-scale Output Network for Salient Object Detection
Zhaojian Yao, Wei Gao, Tiesong Zhao and 2 more
The existing methods for saliency detection task focus on the application of multi-level features, aiming to take advantage of the respective strengths of high- and low-level features. However, because the inputs of these models are single-size images, their multi-level features have difficulty in learning the knowledge of size variations of salient objects. Object-scale variation learning has great potential for detecting multi-scale objects, which has not been fully explored by existing methods. To improve the recognition ability of a model for objects with different sizes, we are inspired by the image pyramid to propose a Multi-scale Input and Multi-scale Output Network (MIMONet). In MIMONet, we extract multi-level features for three images with different resolutions to form three encoder branches, and information will be exchanged between the branches. The advantage of this approach is that the features of one branch can learn the knowledge of target size variation from the features of the other two branches. In addition, we design a Multi-scale Perception (MSP) module, in which the input feature layer is divided into several sub-layers with different resolutions. Capturing the multi-level structure information of the objects in these sub-layers can make the objects more fully perceived. For network training, we propose a Joint Saliency Loss (JSL), which can constrain multiple saliency maps output by the network to identify the same foreground objects, and induce their boundaries to be preserved clearly. Experimental results show that MIMONet has stronger detection capabilities and harvests better evaluation scores on multiple datasets compared to existing models. The code of our model will be released.

LUTSeg: A Longitudinal Multi-Expert Dataset for Ulcer Tissue Segmentation
Karen Sanchez, Carlos Hinojosa, Albert A. Ávila and 5 more
Quantifying wound tissue composition is essential for monitoring chronic ulcer progression and guiding treatment decisions. However, pixel-level annotations are costly, and multi-tissue wound datasets remain scarce, particularly for neglected diseases such as leprosy. We introduce LUTSeg, a longitudinal chronic ulcer dataset comprising 141 images from 39 patients with wound masks and five tissue categories annotated by five expert clinicians, including a multi-expert gold-standard subset for inter-rater agreement analysis. To establish an initial benchmark for LUTSeg, we further propose TiSage, a semi-supervised tissue segmentation framework that integrates multi-scale semantic priors from a frozen medical vision-language model within a teacher-student architecture. We evaluate TiSage on LUTSeg and DFUTissue, showing improvements over supervised and semi-supervised baselines in most low-label settings. Code & data: https://github.com/carlosh93/TiSage

TAU-Agent: An Agentic Retrieval-Augmented Framework for Traffic Anomaly Understanding
Yuqiang Lin, Yan Shi, Sam Lockyer and 5 more
Traffic Anomaly Understanding (TAU) requires models and systems to detect, reason about, and explain anomalous events in transportation videos. To address this challenge, we propose TAU-Agent, an agentic retrieval-augmented framework for traffic anomaly understanding. Given a task query, a central retrieval agent orchestrates two visual perception tools, namely a Video Captioning Tool and an Open-Vocabulary Tracking Tool, to retrieve and select query-relevant evidence, including captions, temporal intervals, and object trajectories. The selected evidence, together with sampled video frames and the input query, is provided to a supervised fine-tuned vision-language model for final reasoning and answer generation. We evaluate TAU-Agent on both the in-domain and the out-of-domain benchmarks from the AI City Challenge 2026. TAU-Agent achieves scores of 0.6779 on Track 3, 0.3998 on Track 7, and 67.9275 on Track 8, ranking second, twelfth, and fifth, respectively. Code is available at: https://github.com/siri-rouser/TAU-Agent.

Skeleton-based Zero-Shot Spatio-Temporal Action Localization via Weakly-Supervised Pretraining
Koshiro Nagano, Fumiaki Sato, Ryo Hachiuma and 2 more
We propose a novel pretraining strategy for skeleton-based zero-shot spatio-temporal action localization to estimate unseen actions for person instances while overcoming high annotation costs for training via new target actions and pretraining using large-scale action scenery datasets. Specifically, our approach, termed Skeleton-Language feature Pooling Switching, introduces a weakly-supervised vision-language pretraining mechanism. This mechanism transitions pooling kernels from pretraining, which aggregates skeleton features at the video level and aligns them with each video's known action text embeddings, to the inference phase that computes instance-level features without training via target actions. Furthermore, we propose Scene-Mixed Discriminative Contrastive Learning to distinguish actions at the instance level within the combined scene through the MIL framework. Our experiments on four public spatio-temporal action localization and classification datasets demonstrate that the proposed method effectively addresses annotation limitations.
