Single-Domain Generalized Object Detection (S-DGOD) aims to generalize from a single source domain to unseen domains under distribution shifts. Existing efforts mainly focus on simulating unseen domains or suppressing domain-specific factors. However, they largely overlook the intrinsic generalization capability embedded in Vision Foundation Models (VFMs). In this work, we show that unconstrained fine-tuning disrupts the geometric structure of pre-trained representations, which encodes domain-invariant semantics. Motivated by this, we propose Geometric-Invariance Fine-Tuning (GIFT), a geometric-aware fine-tuning method for VFMs. Specifically, we introduce a series of learnable Householder reflections to the pre-trained weights to encourage geometry-consistent adaptation under domain shift. In addition, we propose a lightweight channel-wise scaling to facilitate effective task-specific adaptation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that GIFT consistently outperforms state-of-the-art (SOTA) approaches on two S-DGOD benchmarks. Notably, by introducing fewer than 1% additional trainable parameters into the frozen backbone, the proposed method achieves improvements of +7.9% and +2.9% in mPC over the previous SOTA on the Cityscapes-C and Diverse Weather Dataset, respectively. This finding highlights that preserving representation geometry is crucial for robust cross-domain generalization, establishing GIFT as a principled and efficient solution to domain shift.

The emergence of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) has substantially expanded model capabilities beyond text-only understanding, enabling unified inference across both visual and textual modalities and supporting a broader range of real-world applications. To comprehensively evaluate the perception, understanding, reasoning, and cognition capabilities of LVLMs throughout the entire financial business workflow in Chinese contexts, we introduce CFMME, a novel Chinese financial multimodal evaluation benchmark. CFMME comprises 6,052 instances spanning from fundamental academic knowledge to complex real-world applications, covering eight primary financial image modalities and four core multimodal tasks. On CFMME, we conduct a thorough evaluation of representative LVLMs. The results show that the state-of-the-art model attains an overall accuracy of 66.11% on the question answering task and an average score of 77.18 on the detection, recognition, and information extraction tasks, indicating substantial room for improvement in current LVLMs. In addition, we conduct detailed analyses of error causes, cross-modal capabilities, and multi-orientation settings, yielding valuable insights for future research. We hope that CFMME will spur further progress in LVLMs, especially by improving their performance on multiple multimodal tasks in the financial domain.

Generating SVG-based fonts requires Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to translate high-level linguistic intent into low-level, topologically constrained symbolic sequences. However, current approaches struggle with two fundamental misalignments: the semantic ambiguity of unstructured natural language for precise geometric control, and the inefficiency of generic text tokenizers, which fragment coordinate-dense SVG XML into excessively long sequences with low information density. In this work, we propose Vector Calligrapher, a system that treats SVG generation as a conditional language modeling task optimized for both semantic grounding and representational efficiency.To bridge the semantic gap, we introduce a structured linguistic supervision Font Description Framework that decomposes typographic style into interpretable linguistic dimensions (e.g., historical lineage, affective metaphors), providing structured supervision aligned with the compositional syntax of SVG. To address the tokenization bottleneck, we design a scalable separated-coordinate strategy that bypasses the vocabulary explosion of flattened tokens while significantly compressing sequence length. Supported by VectorFont, a dataset of over 10 million hierarchically annotated glyphs, our approach improves CLIP score by +23%, reduces geometric error by ≈48%, and boosts generation efficiency by achieving an 18% Command-per-Token (C/T) ratio—a 6× increase in information density over standard baselines. These results demonstrate that combining structured linguistic supervision with efficient symbolic tokenization is essential for reliable, controllable vector graphics synthesis. VectorFont dataset, Code and model weights will be publicly released.
