We present visual action prompts, a unified action representation for action-to-video generation of complex high-DoF interactions while maintaining transferable visual dynamics across domains. Action-driven video generation faces a precision-generality trade-off: existing methods using text, primitive actions, or coarse masks offer generality but lack precision, while agent-centric action signals provide precision at the cost of cross-domain transferability. To balance action precision and dynamic transferability, we propose to "render" actions into precise visual prompts as domain-agnostic representations that preserve both geometric precision and cross-domain adaptability for complex actions; specifically, we choose visual skeletons for their generality and accessibility. We propose robust pipelines to construct skeletons from two interaction-rich data sources - human-object interactions (HOI) and dexterous robotic manipulation - enabling cross-domain training of action-driven generative models. By integrating visual skeletons into pretrained video generation models via lightweight fine-tuning, we enable precise action control of complex interaction while preserving the learning of cross-domain dynamics. Experiments on EgoVid, RT-1 and DROID demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed approach. Project page: https://zju3dv.github.io/VAP/.

Shape restoration aims to recover intact 3D shapes from defective ones, such as those that are incomplete, noisy, and low-resolution. Previous works have achieved impressive results in shape restoration subtasks thanks to advanced generative models. While effective for specific shape defects, they are less applicable in real-world scenarios involving multiple defect types simultaneously. Additionally, training on limited subsets of defective shapes hinders knowledge transfer across restoration types and thus affects generalization. In this paper, we address the task of general shape restoration, which restores shapes with various types of defects through a unified model, thereby naturally improving the applicability and scalability. Our approach first standardizes the data representation across different restoration subtasks using high-resolution TSDF grids and constructs a large-scale dataset with diverse types of shape defects. Next, we design an efficient hierarchical shape generation model and a noise-robust defective shape encoder that enables effective impaired shape understanding and intact shape generation. Moreover, we propose a scalable training strategy for efficient model training. The capabilities of our proposed method are demonstrated across multiple shape restoration subtasks and validated on various datasets, including Objaverse, ShapeNet, GSO, and ABO.

Solving inverse problems—recovering signals from incomplete or noisy measurements—is fundamental in science and engineering. Score-based generative models (SGMs) have recently emerged as a powerful framework for this task. Two main paradigms have formed: unsupervised approaches that adapt pretrained generative models to inverse problems, and supervised bridge methods that train stochastic processes conditioned on paired clean and corrupted data. While the former typically assume knowledge of the measurement model, the latter have largely overlooked this structural information. We introduce System-embedded Diffusion Bridge Models (SDBs), a new class of supervised bridge methods that explicitly embed the known linear measurement system into the coefficients of a matrix-valued SDE. This principled integration yields consistent improvements across diverse linear inverse problems and demonstrates robust generalization under system misspecification between training and deployment, offering a promising solution to real-world applications.

A fully automated object reconstruction pipeline is crucial for digital content creation. While the area of 3D reconstruction has witnessed profound developments, the removal of background to obtain a clean object model still relies on different forms of manual labor, such as bounding box labeling, mask annotations, and mesh manipulations. In this paper, we propose a novel framework named AutoRecon for the automated discovery and reconstruction of an object from multi-view images. We demonstrate that foreground objects can be robustly located and segmented from SfM point clouds by leveraging self-supervised 2D vision transformer features. Then, we reconstruct decomposed neural scene representations with dense supervision provided by the decomposed point clouds, resulting in accurate object reconstruction and segmentation. Experiments on the DTU, BlendedMVS and CO3D-V2 datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of AutoRecon.

We present a novel method for local image feature matching. Instead of performing image feature detection, description, and matching sequentially, we propose to first establish pixel-wise dense matches at a coarse level and later refine the good matches at a fine level. In contrast to dense methods that use a cost volume to search correspondences, we use self and cross attention layers in Transformer to obtain feature descriptors that are conditioned on both images. The global receptive field provided by Transformer enables our method to produce dense matches in low-texture areas, where feature detectors usually struggle to produce repeatable interest points. The experiments on indoor and outdoor datasets show that LoFTR outperforms state-of-the-art methods by a large margin. We further adapt LoFTR to modern SfM systems and illustrate its application in multiple-view geometry. The proposed method demonstrates superior performance in Image Matching Challenge 2021 and ranks first on two public benchmarks of visual localization among the published methods. The code is available at https://zju3dv.github.io/loftr.

We propose a new method for object pose estimation without CAD models. The previous feature-matching-based method OnePose has shown promising results under a one-shot setting which eliminates the need for CAD models or object-specific training. However, OnePose relies on detecting repeatable image keypoints and is thus prone to failure on low-textured objects. We propose a keypoint-free pose estimation pipeline to remove the need for repeatable keypoint detection. Built upon the detector-free feature matching method LoFTR, we devise a new keypoint-free SfM method to reconstruct a semi-dense point-cloud model for the object. Given a query image for object pose estimation, a 2D-3D matching network directly establishes 2D-3D correspondences between the query image and the reconstructed point-cloud model without first detecting keypoints in the image. Experiments show that the proposed pipeline outperforms existing one-shot CAD-model-free methods by a large margin and is comparable to CAD-model-based methods on LINEMOD even for low-textured objects. We also collect a new dataset composed of 80 sequences of 40 low-textured objects to facilitate future research on one-shot object pose estimation.

A reasonably designed energy management strategy can guarantee the stable and efficient operation of fuel cell UAV. The Pontryagin’s Minimal Principle (PMP) -based strategies are usually used to solve the problem of reducing system hydrogen consumption system. The conventional PMP strategies may fail to maintain optimal performance when system operating conditions change. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a PMP energy management strategy based on state switching (S-PMP). The comorphic variable of the PMP can be adjusted actively according to the SOC of the battery. When the SOC of battery lower than the threshold, the algorithm adjusts the comorphic variable through the deviation between the real-time collected SOC and the expected value of the SOC. When the SOC of battery higher than the threshold, the algorithm adjusts the comorphic variable by the deviation of the load power and the battery power. The simulation results show that the proposed S-PMP algorithm can effectively reduce the consumption of hydrogen, maintain the SOC of the battery, and improve the operating efficiency of the fuel cell system under different operating conditions of the system.
