arXiv:2607. 04548v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Novel category discovery aims to identify unseen classes from unlabeled data by transferring knowledge from labeled categories, but most existing methods perform discovery in opaque latent feature spaces.

arXiv:2606. 09134v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Constructing knowledge graphs from 3D simulation scenes is essential for robot task reasoning, but the key bottleneck, grounding scene objects to formal ontology classes, still relies on manually curated dictionaries that are brittle and do not generalize across assets.

The paper introduces CFM, a language‑aligned concept foundation model for vision that generates fine‑grained, human‑interpretable concepts with spatial grounding. By pairing CFM with a strong semantic foundation model, it provides explanations for downstream tasks such as classification, segmentation, and captioning. The authors also analyze local co‑occurrence of concepts to define relationships, improving concept naming and yielding richer explanations while maintaining competitive performance.

The paper introduces Auto-Comp, a fully automated, concept-driven pipeline that generates photorealistic compositional benchmarks for vision‑language models. Auto‑Comp creates paired Minimal and Contextual samples for each concept, enabling isolation of core binding abilities from visio‑linguistic complexity. Evaluations across 25 models reveal consistent failures in attribute and relational binding, with context helping relational tasks but hindering attribute tasks due to visual clutter.

The paper introduces MK‑FSS, a few‑shot segmentation framework that leverages Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to extract spatial and semantic target knowledge from query images. Spatial knowledge is encoded into a memory representation and fused with support‑guided memory via a dual‑memory debate‑fusion module, while semantic knowledge is turned into a textual feature and combined with multi‑scale query features through a progressive cross‑modal prompt generator. Together, these components produce a robust target representation that improves segmentation performance over existing methods.

The paper introduces Language-driven Dense Semantic Adaptor (LDSA) for multi-label image classification with incomplete annotations. LDSA leverages multimodal pretrained CLIP models to extract prior-adaptive relationships, employing a densely contrastive adaptor for visual contrastive constraints and a language-driven interactive decoder with class-specific prompt tuning. Experiments show LDSA achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on public benchmarks and reveals implicit semantic relationships through its learning scheme.
