Domain Adaptation with a Single Vision-Language Embedding

arXiv:2410. 21361v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Domain adaptation has been extensively investigated in computer vision but still requires access to target data at the training time, which might be difficult to obtain in real-world autonomous driving scenarios, especially under rare or adverse conditions.

Unified Text-Image Generation with Weakness-Targeted Post-Training

The paper introduces a post‑training approach that enables a single inference process to transition from text reasoning to image synthesis, eliminating the need for explicit modality switching. Using the 14B BAGEL model, the authors demonstrate that targeted post‑training data and reward‑weighted training improve multimodal image generation across four independent T2I benchmarks. The study highlights the benefits of joint text‑image generation and strategic data selection for enhancing T2I performance.

WildRelight: A Real-World Benchmark and Physics-Guided Adaptation for Single-Image Relighting

WildRelight is the first in-the-wild dataset designed to evaluate single-image relighting models, featuring high-resolution outdoor scenes captured under strictly aligned, temporally varying natural illuminations paired with high-dynamic-range environment maps. The benchmark demonstrates that state-of-the-art models trained on synthetic data suffer severe domain shifts when applied to real-world imagery. Leveraging the dataset’s temporal structure, the authors introduce a physics-guided inference framework combining Diffusion Posterior Sampling with Temporal Sampling-Aware Test-Time Adaptation, enabling synthetic models to self-supervise and align with real-world statistics on-the-fly.

Prompt-Adapter Context Routing for Parameter-Efficient Multi-Shot Long Video Extrapolation

arXiv:2607. 06481v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present PACR-Video, a parameter-efficient framework for multi-shot long video extrapolation that preserves recurring entities, scene structure, visual style, and causal progression without full generator fine-tuning.
