Abstract

Lane and road markings provide critical guidance for vehicle navigation and multi-agent coordination, yet authoring them at scale remains a manual workflow that limits quantitative analysis and scenario testing. We introduce Controllable Road Marking Generation, which synthesizes a missing center-region marking layout from a drivable-area mask, optional outer-ring markings, and a textual description. Our benchmark uses deterministic, metadata-derived prompts and three output channels: lane dividers, road dividers, and pedestrian crossings. We develop a conditional bird's-eye-view (BEV) pipeline that combines (i) a text-conditioned latent rectified-flow DiT trained with a topology-aware auxiliary loss, (ii) Gaussian-blurred training targets that stabilize learning of thin, sparse markings, and (iii) Structured Gaussian Render (SGR), a training-free post-process that recovers crisp divider geometry by extracting polylines, fitting cubic Bézier curves, and re-rendering them as anisotropic super-Gaussian primitives. On 4,597 Argoverse~2 test tiles, our system achieves Buffered F1 of 80.8 and clDice of 50.2, compared with 38.8 and 24.6 for an adapted state-of-the-art mask-refinement baseline. On Waymo dataset, it yields 88.0 Buffered F1 and 66.2 clDice. Component ablations show complementary connectivity gains from topology-aware supervision and SGR. Text-editing experiments reveal that stronger guidance improves edit success but also increases changes to non-target structures. We see this framework as a step toward simulation-ready road-marking variation, automated map completion, and early-stage infrastructure design exploration.

Event-based Continuous Color Video Decompression from Single Frames

We present ContinuityCam, a novel approach to generate a continuous video from a single static RGB image and an event camera stream. Conventional cameras struggle with high-speed motion capture due to bandwidth and dynamic range limitations. Event cameras are ideal sensors to solve this problem because they encode compressed change information at high temporal resolution. In this work, we tackle the problem of event-based continuous color video decompression, pairing single static color frames and event data to reconstruct temporally continuous videos. Our approach combines continuous long-range motion modeling with a neural synthesis model, enabling frame prediction at arbitrary times within the events. Our method only requires an initial image, thus increasing the robustness to sudden motions, light changes, minimizing the prediction latency, and decreasing bandwidth usage. We also introduce a novel single-lens beamsplitter setup that acquires aligned images and events, and a novel and challenging Event Extreme Decompression Dataset (E2D2) that tests the method in various lighting and motion profiles. We thoroughly evaluate our method by benchmarking color frame reconstruction, outperforming the baseline methods by 3.61 dB in PSNR and by 33% decrease in LPIPS, as well as showing superior results on two downstream tasks.

InstructTA: Instruction-Tuned Targeted Attack for Large Vision-Language Models

Large vision-language models (LVLMs) have demonstrated their incredible capability in visual question answering. However, this rich visual interaction also makes LVLMs vulnerable to adversarial examples. In this paper, we formulate a novel and practical targeted attack scenario that the adversary knows only the vision encoder of the victim LVLM, without the knowledge of its prompts and its underlying large language model. This practical setting poses challenges to the cross-prompt and cross-model transferability of targeted adversarial attack, which aims to confuse the LVLM to output a response that is semantically similar to the attacker's chosen target text. To this end, we propose an instruction-tuned targeted attack (dubbed InstructTA) to deliver the targeted adversarial attack on LVLMs with high transferability. Initially, we utilize a public text-to-image generative model to reverse the target response into a target image, and employ GPT-4 to infer a reasonable instruction $\boldsymbol{p}^\prime$ from the target response. We then form a local surrogate model (sharing the same vision encoder with the victim LVLM) to extract instruction-aware features of an adversarial image example and the target image, and minimize the distance between these two features to optimize the adversarial example. To further improve the transferability with instruction tuning, we augment the instruction $\boldsymbol{p}^\prime$ with instructions paraphrased from GPT-4. Extensive experiments on 6 victim LVLMs demonstrate the superiority of our proposed method in targeted attack performance and transferability. In particular, InstructTA achieves an attack success rate of 51.9% on BLIP-2, outperforming the strongest baseline by 10.5%, and consistently yields the highest attack success rates across all evaluated models.

Motif Channel Opened in a White-Box: Stereo Matching via Motif Correlation Graph

Real-world applications of stereo matching, such as autonomous driving, place stringent demands on both safety and accuracy. However, learning-based stereo matching methods inherently suffer from the loss of geometric structures in certain feature channels, creating a bottleneck in achieving precise detail matching. Additionally, these methods lack interpretability due to the black-box nature of deep learning. In this paper, we propose MoCha-V2, a novel learning-based paradigm for stereo matching. MoCha-V2 introduces the Motif Correlation Graph (MCG) to capture recurring textures, which are referred to as ``motifs" within feature channels. These motifs reconstruct geometric structures and are learned in a more interpretable way. Subsequently, we integrate features from multiple frequency domains through wavelet inverse transformation. The resulting motif features are utilized to restore geometric structures in the stereo matching process. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of MoCha-V2. MoCha-V2 achieved 1st place on the Middlebury benchmark at the time of its release. Code is available at https://github.com/ZYangChen/MoCha-Stereo.
