UnDA: Unpaired Domain Alignment for Cross-Modal Knowledge Transfer in Medical Imaging

Multimodal based approaches often outperform single modality approaches in downstream tasks as the different modalities provide complementary information, yet acquiring paired clinical data remains a significant challenge in real world scenarios. While cross-modal knowledge distillation addresses this, existing methods often struggle with large modality gaps and the propagation of noise from uncertain source-domain predictions.

SPDCN: Strip-based Deformable Convolutional Network for Steel Surface Defect Segmentation

Steel surface defect segmentation is critical for industrial quality inspection, yet existing methods struggle with elongated, anisotropic defects such as cracks and scratches due to the isotropic receptive fields of standard convolutions and rigid sampling grids that cannot adapt to irregular defect boundaries. To address these limitations, we propose Strip-based Predictor for Deformable Convolutional Networks (SPDCN) with two key innovations.

WAT3R: Feedforward Underwater 3D Reconstruction

Reliable feedforward underwater 3D reconstruction remains challenging due to severe light attenuation and backscattering, which degrade visual quality and disrupt feature consistency across views, leading to inaccurate multi-view geometry. To address this issue, we propose WAT3R, a feed-forward framework for reconstructing 3D scenes directly from underwater images.

Native Multi-Dimensional Subquadratic Operators via Input Dependent Long Convolutions

arXiv:2607. 19378v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Subquadratic alternatives to attention require compromises when applied to multi-dimensional data: standard convolutions lack global receptive fields and input dependency, while recurrent models require rasterizing data such as images, volumes, and partial differential equation (PDE) into an ad-hoc $1\rm D$ scan order that violates their spatial structure.
