Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (STEM) enables the observation of atomic arrangements at sub-angstrom resolution and plays a key role in the discovery and characterization of advanced materials. Raw STEM images are often noisy and blurred due to multiple degradations. Although recent deep learning methods improve STEM images, their performance remains limited under severe degradations. In this work, we propose a spatial-frequency learning framework for STEM image enhancement. Specifically, we design a spatial-frequency fusion network that exploits periodic atomic arrangements in the frequency domain and restores local atomic details in the spatial domain. Spatial- and frequency-domain features are enhanced separately and then fused. We also present a STEM noise calibration method for synthesizing more realistic STEM images. The parameters of scan noise, pointwise noise, and background noise are estimated through statistical analysis and fitting of real STEM images. Using these calibrated parameters, we construct a diverse dataset containing a wider range of atomic arrangements, imaging modes, and degradations. Random masks combine different atomic arrangements to simulate interfaces between multiple materials. Experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art enhancement performance on synthetic datasets and real images of advanced materials while improving atomic localization accuracy.
With the rapid development of pre-training technologies, adapting large-scale Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for video understanding i.e. image-to-video transfer learning has become a dominant paradigm. To achieve superior performance, it raises as an effective strategy among recent advances to employ Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) to enhance VLMs' temporal modeling capabilities. However, conventional MoE designs suffer from expert homogenization, where all experts act as identical generalists, inefficiently learning spatio-temporal features from undifferentiated video streams.To overcome this problem, we propose VidPrism, a novel heterogeneous temporal Mixture-of-Experts framework. VidPrism pioneers a division of labor by deploying functionally specialized experts, each assuming a role ranging from spatial understanding to temporal modeling.To feed these specialists appropriately, we introduce a content-aware, multi-rate sampling module that dynamically generates streams ranging from semantically rich to motion-focused representations, providing specialized inputs for experts.Furthermore, a dynamic, bidirectional fusion mechanism enables synergistic information exchange between these pathways, leading to a comprehensive video representation. Extensive experiments on various video recognition benchmarks demonstrate that VidPrism achieves state-of-the-art performance and effectively fosters expert specialization.

This paper tackles the challenge of recovering 4D dynamic scenes from videos captured by as few as four portable cameras. Learning to model scene dynamics for temporally consistent novel-view rendering is a foundational task in computer graphics, where previous works often require dense multi-view captures using camera arrays of dozens or even hundreds of views. We propose 4C4D, a novel framework that enables high-fidelity 4D Gaussian Splatting from video captures of extremely sparse cameras. Our key insight lies that the geometric learning under sparse settings is substantially more difficult than modeling appearance. Driven by this observation, we introduce a Neural Decaying Function on Gaussian opacities for enhancing the geometric modeling capability of 4D Gaussians. This design mitigates the inherent imbalance between geometry and appearance modeling in 4DGS by encouraging the 4DGS gradients to focus more on geometric learning. Extensive experiments across sparse-view datasets with varying camera overlaps show that 4C4D achieves superior performance over prior art.
