Abstract

3D reconstruction could improve colonoscopy by estimating mucosal coverage and alerting clinicians to missed regions during screening. However, algorithm development is limited as no current datasets provide both a realistic in vivo appearance and dense, time-resolved 3D ground truth, especially under non-rigid deformation. We present C3VD-DEFCOL, a framework and dataset for evaluating deformable colonoscopy reconstruction with paired geometry and realistic texture. Starting from C3VD/C3VDv2 colon meshes and camera trajectories, we generate controlled deformations of the colon surface, including peristaltic waves and centerline motion, and render per-frame depth, surface normals, optical flow, camera poses, and time-stamped 3D meshes. We then use the rendered geometry, primarily depth, to condition an LTX-2.3-based sim-to-real translation model that produces RGB clips with in vivo-like mucosal color, texture, vasculature, and specular appearance while preserving the underlying 3D scene structure. The resulting dataset contains 110 videos from 11 unique colon mesh geometries, with varying camera trajectories, appearances, and parameterized deformation regimes, including three peristaltic severity levels that serve as controlled evaluation axes. We evaluate the generated videos using appearance realism, geometric consistency, and temporal consistency metrics, and use the paired ground truth to benchmark the downstream task of pose estimation in deformable 3D reconstruction. Our experiments show how pose estimation error increases with increasing deformation severity, providing a controlled stress test that is not possible with existing in vivo datasets. Overall, C3VD-DEFCOL is designed as a reproducible, quantitative evaluation platform for testing deformable 3D reconstruction algorithms, with the goal of reducing the domain gap between synthetic datasets and in vivo colonoscopy.

Privacy Leakage on DNNs: A Survey of Model Inversion Attacks and Defenses

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have revolutionized various domains with their exceptional performance across numerous applications. However, Model Inversion (MI) attacks, which disclose private information about the training dataset by abusing access to the trained models, have emerged as a formidable privacy threat. Given a trained network, these attacks enable adversaries to reconstruct high-fidelity data that closely aligns with the private training samples, posing significant privacy concerns. Despite the rapid advances in the field, we lack a comprehensive and systematic overview of existing MI attacks and defenses. To fill this gap, this paper thoroughly investigates this realm and presents a holistic survey. Firstly, our work briefly reviews early MI studies on traditional machine learning scenarios. We then elaborately analyze and compare numerous recent attacks and defenses on Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) across multiple modalities and learning tasks. By meticulously analyzing their distinctive features, we summarize and classify these methods into different categories and provide a novel taxonomy. Finally, this paper discusses promising research directions and presents potential solutions to open issues. To facilitate further study on MI attacks and defenses, we have implemented an open-source model inversion toolbox on GitHub (https://github.com/ffhibnese/Model-Inversion-Attack-ToolBox).

ALINA: Advanced Line Identification and Notation Algorithm

Labels are the cornerstone of supervised machine learning algorithms. Most visual recognition methods are fully supervised, using bounding boxes or pixel-wise segmentations for object localization. Traditional labeling methods, such as crowd-sourcing, are prohibitive due to cost, data privacy, amount of time, and potential errors on large datasets. To address these issues, we propose a novel annotation framework, Advanced Line Identification and Notation Algorithm (ALINA), which can be used for labeling taxiway datasets that consist of different camera perspectives and variable weather attributes (sunny and cloudy). Additionally, the CIRCular threshoLd pixEl Discovery And Traversal (CIRCLEDAT) algorithm has been proposed, which is an integral step in determining the pixels corresponding to taxiway line markings. Once the pixels are identified, ALINA generates corresponding pixel coordinate annotations on the frame. Using this approach, 60,249 frames from the taxiway dataset, AssistTaxi have been labeled. To evaluate the performance, a context-based edge map (CBEM) set was generated manually based on edge features and connectivity. The detection rate after testing the annotated labels with the CBEM set was recorded as 98.45%, attesting its dependability and effectiveness.

DisasterInsight: A Building-Centric Benchmark for Evaluating Vision--Language Models in Disaster Response

Vision--language models (VLMs) show promise for disaster-response remote sensing, but existing benchmarks mainly emphasize scene-level or damage-centric assessment. To study this building-centric gap, we introduce \method{}, a diagnostic benchmark built on xBD, a pre/post-disaster satellite dataset with building-level damage labels. \method{} enriches building instances with OpenStreetMap-derived functional labels and contains 134{,}108 task-specific instruction records across 15 task types, spanning instance-level assessment, scene-level counting, multi-instance reasoning, and structured report generation. The benchmark supports RGB pre/post-disaster imagery, single- and multi-view instance formulations, and scene-level RGB/SAR diagnostic inputs. Experiments with general-domain and remote-sensing VLMs show that models perform better on visible damage cues than on building-function understanding, multi-instance reasoning, counting, and grounded reporting. Instruction tuning improves performance on several tasks but does not close this building-centric gap.
