Cross-modal place recognition (CMPR) aims to identify the same location across heterogeneous sensing modalities, such as vision and LiDAR. Existing methods commonly bridge the modality gap using complex alignment modules, multi-stage training, or full fine-tuning of pretrained backbones.

Multi-modality data from different sensors provides rich complementary information for 3D perception, becoming an essential component in reliable autonomous driving systems. Current research typically designs intricate and complex fusion strategies to integrate information from multimodal data on a unified bird's-eye-view (BEV) feature map for the joint learning of multiple perception tasks.
Multimodal fusion learning (MFL) has shown great potential in the medical domain, where we are faced with disparate data modalities such as imaging, clinical records, and omics. However, existing MFL strategies face several major challenges.
The paper introduces D2MoE, a Mixture of Task Adapters designed for vision foundation models to handle multi-task dense prediction. It separates adaptation into a task‑generic low‑rank channel (TG‑LoRA) that preserves pretrained priors and a task‑adaptive sparse expert module (TA‑MoE) that resolves task‑specific conflicts. A Semantic Prior Injector further aligns multi‑level task features with frozen foundation knowledge, achieving robust multi‑task performance with a small trainable footprint.

3D-SceneQ is a new 3D large language model that tackles two key limitations of existing 3D scene understanding pipelines: the inclusion of irrelevant object tokens that add noise, and the exclusive use of point cloud data that lacks rich semantic cues. It introduces a Query‑Guided Adaptive Pruning (QGAP) module that selectively keeps task‑relevant objects based on user instructions, and a Multi‑modal Object‑level Feature Enhancement (MOFE) module that fuses 2D feature embeddings into the 3D representation to enrich semantic information. Experiments show that 3D‑SceneQ surpasses state‑of‑the‑art methods on several benchmarks, achieving significant gains in metrics such as CIDEr and EM@1.
