Affordance grounding focuses on predicting the specific regions of objects that are associated with the actions to be performed by robots. It plays a vital role in the fields of human-robot interaction, human-object interaction, embodied manipulation, and embodied perception. Existing models often neglect the affordance shared among different objects because they lack the Chain-of-Thought(CoT) reasoning abilities, limiting their out-of-domain generalization and explicit reasoning capabilities. To address these challenges, we propose Affordance-R1, the first unified affordance grounding framework that integrates cognitive CoT guided Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) within a reinforcement learning paradigm. Specifically, we designed a sophisticated affordance function, which contains format, perception, and cognition rewards to effectively guide optimization directions. Furthermore, we constructed a high-quality affordance-centric reasoning dataset, ReasonAff, to support training. Trained exclusively via reinforcement learning with GRPO and without explicit reasoning data, Affordance-R1 achieves robust zero-shot generalization and exhibits emergent test-time reasoning capabilities. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that our model outperforms well-established methods and exhibits open-world generalization.

Image demoiréing poses one of the most formidable challenges in image restoration, primarily due to the unpredictable and anisotropic nature of moiré patterns. Limited by the quantity and diversity of training data, current methods tend to overfit to a single moiré domain, resulting in performance degradation for new domains, and restricting their robustness in real-world applications. In this paper, we propose a universal image demoiréing solution, UniDemoiré, which has superior generalization capability. Notably, we propose innovative and effective data generation and synthesis methods that can automatically provide vast high-quality moiré images to train a universal demoiréing model. Our extensive experiments demonstrate the cutting-edge performance and broad potential of our approach for generalized image demoiréing.

Our work aims to reconstruct hand-object interactions from a single-view image, which is a fundamental but ill-posed task. Unlike methods that reconstruct from videos, multiview images, or predefined 3D templates, single-view reconstruction faces significant challenges due to inherent ambiguities and occlusions. These challenges are further amplified by the diverse nature of hand poses and the vast variety of object shapes and sizes. Our key insight is that current foundational models for segmentation, inpainting, and 3D reconstruction robustly generalize to in-the-wild images, which could provide strong visual and geo-metric priors for reconstructing hand-object interactions. Specifically, given a single image, we first design a novel pipeline to estimate the underlying hand pose and object shape using off-the-shelf large models. Furthermore, with the initial reconstruction, we employ a prior-guided optimization scheme, which optimizes hand pose to comply with 3D physical constraints and the 2D input image content. We perform experiments across several datasets and show that our method consistently outperforms baselines and faithfully reconstructs a diverse set of hand-object interactions.

Learning effective visuomotor policies for robotic manipulation is challenging, as it requires generating precise actions while maintaining computational efficiency. Existing methods remain unsatisfactory due to inherent limitations in the essential action representation and the basic network architectures. We observe that representing actions in the frequency domain captures the structured nature of motion more effectively: low-frequency components reflect global movement patterns, while high-frequency components encode fine local details. Additionally, robotic manipulation tasks of varying complexity demand different levels of modeling precision across these frequency bands. Motivated by this, we propose a novel paradigm for visuomotor policy learning that progressively models hierarchical frequency components. To further enhance precision, we introduce continuous latent representations that maintain smoothness and continuity in the action space. Extensive experiments across diverse 2D and 3D robotic manipulation benchmarks demonstrate that our approach outperforms existing methods in both accuracy and efficiency, showcasing the potential of a frequency-domain autoregressive framework with continuous tokens for generalized robotic manipulation.Code is available at https://github.com/4DVLab/Freqpolicy

Comparing to the original backprojection (BP) algorithm, the fast factorized backprojection algorithm accelerates enormously by dividing the synthetic aperture into many small pieces and finishes the BP integral in many stages. Numerous two-dimensional (2-D) image interpolation operations are utilized to raise accuracy. In this letter, a new factorized backprojection algorithm is proposed where no interpolation is involved. Coarse images are reconstructed and fused precisely in Cartesian coordinates. A spectrum compression method is introduced to decrease the Nyquist sampling requirement in cross-range direction for efficiency. Simulation and real-data experiments prove the validity and superiority of the proposal.

In this paper, an interpolation-free fast factorized back-projection (IF-FFBP) algorithm is proposed for high-resolution spotlight synthetic aperture radar (SAR) processing. Different from the original FFBP utilizing two-dimensional image-domain interpolation for sub-aperture fusion, IF-FFBP finishes the image merging steps using chirp-z transform and circular shifting. Under the restriction of the applicable scope, IF-FFBP yields enhanced efficiency over the 4 times upsampling interpolation based FFBP, and keeps the high precision simultaneously. Finally, Real-data experiment verifies the efficiency superiorities of the FIM-FFBP.
