Kohn-Sham Spectral Embedding on Sparse Graphs at the Nishimori Temperature for Image Classification

arXiv:2607. 28428v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce Kohn--Sham Spectral Embedding (KSSE), a physics-inspired energy-based model replacing dense CNN classifiers with a sparse-graph spectral embedding evaluated at the Nishimori temperature of an associated Random-Bond Ising Model.

Large scale cross-regional remote sensing flood monitoring framework for operative mapping and impact analysis

Effective flood monitoring is critical for minimizing the impacts of flood disasters on populations and infrastructure. Yet reliable remote sensing across extensive and environmentally diverse regions remains challenging, as most segmentation algorithms lack the generalisation capacity required for large-scale application, while annotated flood data are scarce and unevenly distributed.

MonoVoc: Decoupling Geometry and Semantics for Lightweight Monocular Open-Vocabulary 3D Gaussians

Open vocabulary 3D scene understanding is essential for next-generation interactive systems, empowering users to intuitively query and navigate reconstructed environments using natural language. However, current 3D Gaussian frameworks are often bottlenecked by restrictive multiview capture requirements, costly scene-specific optimization, and the massive memory overhead of storing dense language features.

One Patch Is Enough: Reinforcement-Optimized Visual Token Grounding for MLLM-Based Scene Text Spotting

Scene text spotting requires high-precision alignment between textual recognition and spatial localization. While visual-token grounding has emerged as a promising formulation for Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), the previous multi-patch paradigm often introduces redundant noise and localization ambiguity, particularly for dense or small text instances.

Explainable and Resource-Efficient Spatial Reasoning in Multimodal LLMs for Decision-Critical Applications

As Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed in decision-critical pipelines such as robotics, embodied AI, and safety monitoring, the opacity of their spatial judgments limits operator trust and auditability. MLLMs demonstrate strong reasoning but often struggle with fine-grained spatial understanding and object hallucination.
