Rigging is inherently task-dependent because the same mesh may require different skeletons and deformation behaviors across animation tasks. In practice, artists often inspect an initial rig and repeatedly edit its skeletal structure and deformation behavior to meet specific animation requirements. Existing automatic methods primarily generate a plausible rig from geometry, offering limited explicit control over the resulting skeleton and deformation behavior. In this work, we present ViP-Rig, a visual-prompted framework that supports both prompt-first rigging and result-guided editing by injecting features extracted from user-drawn or edited 2D skeletal and rigidity prompts into frozen pretrained backbones. Specifically, ViP-Rig consists of two stages, Skeleton Generation and Skinning Prediction. In the first stage, the skeletal sketch is processed by the Dense-to-Compact Visual Prompt Encoding to produce compact, fixed-length conditioning tokens. The resulting tokens are injected into a frozen pretrained autoregressive generator through gated adapters to control joint placement and branching structure while preserving the generator's geometric prior. In the second stage, the rigidity map is processed using the same visual encoding design, while the pretrained skinning backbone remains frozen. The resulting tokens are symmetrically injected into the point and joint streams to modulate point-joint compatibility and the resulting skinning weights. Experiments on Articulation-XL2.0 and zero-shot evaluation on ModelsResource show that ViP-Rig more accurately recovers target skeletons and skinning weights than geometry-conditioned baselines under prompt-guided evaluation. Qualitative results further demonstrate explicit and localized control in both prompt-first rigging and result-guided editing.
We introduce DeepInterestGR, a novel framework that integrates deep interest mining into the generative recommendation pipeline. This addresses the "Shallow Interest" problem: existing generative methods rely on surface-level textual features and fail to capture latent user motivations, limiting personalization depth and recommendation interpretability. Our approach leverages Multi-LLM Interest Mining (MLIM) via structured reasoning prompting, Reward-Labeled Deep Interest (RLDI) for quality control, and Interest-Enhanced Item Discretization (IEID) via RQ-VAE, combined with a two-stage SFT-GRPO training pipeline guided by an Interest-Aware Reward. We validate DeepInterestGR on three Amazon Review benchmarks (Beauty, Sports, Instruments), comparing against 14 state-of-the-art baselines including SASRec, BERT4Rec, TIGER, LC-Rec, and S-DPO. Our method achieves 12.4%-15.4% relative improvements on HR@10 and 15.5%-17.9% on NDCG@10, with cross-domain generalization gains of +24.8%. To our knowledge, this is the first work to demonstrate such significant gains by incorporating deep semantic interests into generative recommendation.

Multimodal Large Language Models advance multimodal representation learning by acquiring transferable semantic embeddings, thereby substantially enhancing performance across a range of vision-language tasks, including cross-modal retrieval, clustering, and classification. An effective embedding is expected to comprehensively preserve the semantic content of the input while simultaneously emphasizing features that are discriminative for downstream tasks. Recent approaches demonstrate that MLLMs can be adapted into competitive embedding models via large-scale contrastive learning, enabling the simultaneous optimization of two complementary objectives. We argue that the two aforementioned objectives can be decoupled: a comprehensive understanding of the input enables the embedding model to achieve superior performance on downstream tasks via contrastive learning. In this paper, we propose CoMa, a compressed pre-training phase, which serves as a warm-up stage for contrastive learning. Experiments demonstrate that with only a small amount of pre-training data, we can transform an MLLM into a competitive embedding model. CoMa achieves new state-of-the-art results among MLLMs of comparable size on the MMEB, realizing optimization in both efficiency and effectiveness.
