HARMONY: Hierarchical Agentic Reasoning for MONocular Image-to-Scene Synthesis

Abstract

Compositional 3D scene reconstruction has recently been explored from two directions: agentic reasoning that provides semantic understanding of spatial relationships but lacks precise alignment with input images; and visual geometry foundation models that predict dense point maps from input images but the reconstruction quality is limited. Therefore, recovering a complete 3D scene from a single monocular image with accurate inter-object relationships and high-fidelity reconstruction quality remains challenging. In this paper, we present HARMONY, a hierarchical chain-of-thought framework that leverages both agentic reasoning and visual geometry foundation. Given an image of an indoor scene, starting from an empty 3D floorplan, HARMONY first calibrates the camera against the reference image to establish a semantically-grounded spatial frame, then uses agentic VLM reasoning to recover the 3D room layout and an initial placement order. It then places the objects in a hierarchical order, from wall-mounted elements, free-standing furniture, to dependent decorations on top of furniture. We also use depth-first traversal for furniture so each placement conditions on previously resolved structure and a reflective feedback loop to avoid error accumulation. After each object placement by VLM, we use the point cloud estimations to perform geometry-based refinement so that the rendered image aligns better with the input. HARMONY can produce 3D scenes that are semantically consistent and perceptually aligned with the reference image, extending single-image compositional reconstruction to complex indoor scene images. Experiments on synthetic and real-world images demonstrate that HARMONY outperforms the evaluated reconstruction baselines, while qualitative comparisons with GPT-6 Astra suggest more faithful object arrangements and better preservation of scene details.

Tackling fluffy clouds: robust agricultural field boundary delineation from Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 satellite image time series

Accurate delineation of agricultural field boundaries is essential for effective crop monitoring and resource management. However, competing methodologies often face significant challenges, particularly in their reliance on extensive manual efforts for cloud-free data curation and limited adaptability to diverse global conditions. In this paper, we introduce PTAViT3D, a deep learning architecture specifically designed for processing three-dimensional time series of satellite imagery from either Sentinel-1 (S1) or Sentinel-2 (S2). Additionally, we present PTAViT3D-CA, an extension of the PTAViT3D model incorporating cross-attention mechanisms to fuse S1 and S2 datasets, enhancing robustness in cloud-contaminated scenarios. The proposed methods leverage spatio-temporal correlations through a memory-efficient 3D Vision Transformer architecture, facilitating accurate boundary delineation directly from preprocessed, cloud-affected imagery. We comprehensively validate our models through extensive testing on various datasets, including Australia's ePaddocks - CSIRO's national, continental-scale agricultural field boundary product covering Australia's cropping regions - alongside public benchmarks Fields-of-the-World, PASTIS, and AI4SmallFarms. Our results consistently demonstrate state-of-the-art performance, highlighting excellent global transferability and robustness. Crucially, our approach significantly simplifies data preparation workflows by reliably processing cloud-affected imagery, thereby offering strong adaptability across diverse agricultural environments. Our code and models are publicly available at https://github.com/feevos/tfcl.

Copy-Move Forgery Detection and Question Answering for Remote Sensing Image

Driven by practical demands in land resource monitoring and national defense security, this paper introduces the Remote Sensing Copy-Move Question Answering (RSCMQA) task. Unlike traditional Remote Sensing Visual Question Answering (RSVQA), RSCMQA focuses on interpreting complex tampering scenarios and inferring relationships between objects. We present a suite of global RSCMQA datasets, comprising images from 29 different regions across 14 countries. Specifically, we propose five distinct datasets, including the basic dataset RS-CMQA, the category-balanced dataset RS-CMQA-B, the high-authenticity dataset Real-RSCM, the extended dataset RS-TQA, and the extended category-balanced dataset RS-TQA-B. These datasets fill a critical gap in the field while ensuring comprehensiveness, balance, and challenging scenarios. Furthermore, we introduce a region-discrimination-guided multimodal copy-move forgery perception framework (CMFPF), which enhances the accuracy of answering questions about tampered images by leveraging prompts about the differences and connections between the source and tampered regions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method establishes a stronger benchmark for RSCMQA compared to general VQA and RSVQA models. Our datasets and code are publicly available at https://github.com/shenyedepisa/RSCMQA.

SMDDFNet: State-space Modeling and Dynamic Dual Fusion Network for Traffic Sign Detection

Traffic sign detection is a challenging visual signal processing task for advanced driver assistance, where small objects, scale variation, and occlusion limit conventional detectors with fixed receptive fields. This paper proposes State-space Modeling and Dynamic Dual Fusion Network (SMDDFNet), a deep learning detector for traffic sign images. SMDDFNet integrates a Dynamic Dual Fusion (DDF) module and a state-space modeling backbone to enhance multi-scale feature representation. DDF combines efficient multi-scale attention with content-aware dynamic filtering in the frequency domain, while the backbone captures long-range dependencies with linear computational complexity. A multi-scale feature fusion neck further aggregates pyramid features for robust localization of small signs. Experiments on TT100K, GTSDB, PASCAL VOC, and the Roboflow~100 \emph{vehicle} subset show that SMDDFNet achieves competitive accuracy against recent detectors while retaining real-time throughput.
