The neural process (NP) is a probabilistic meta learning model that learns distributions over functions via a global latent variable.It enables fast adaptation in few-shot scenarios by leveraging past experience. However, the design of latent variable structures and conditioning mechanisms in NPs remains underexplored, despite their importance in capturing diverse functional distributions.This paper proposes a new variant of NPs via mixture density modeling, referred to as the neural mixture density process (NMDP).The NMDP decomposes model parameters into task-agnostic and task-specific components to represent function distributions more flexibly. We train the model via the Expectation-Maximization algorithm to construct expressive functional priors.Compared with existing work, our method maintains several advantages: (i) less overfitting by updating a small part of the network parameters, (ii) compact task representation via distributions in the simplex,(iii) an improvement guarantee of generative likelihoods over iteration. Experimental results show that our method can achieve competitive performance with adequate explainability.

Video matting remains limited by the scale and realism of existing datasets. While leveraging segmentation data can enhance semantic stability, the lack of effective boundary supervision often leads to segmentation-like mattes lacking fine details. To this end, we introduce a learned Quality Evaluator (QE) that assesses semantic and boundary quality of alpha mattes without ground truth. It produces a pixel-wise evaluation map that identifies reliable and erroneous regions, enabling fine-grained quality assessment. The QE scales up video matting in two ways: (1) as an online matting-quality feedback during training to suppress erroneous regions, providing comprehensive supervision, and (2) as an offline selection module for data curation, improving annotation quality by combining the strengths of leading video and image matting models. This process allows us to build a large-scale real-world video matting dataset, VMReal, containing 28K clips and 2.4M frames. To handle large appearance variations in long videos, we introduce a reference-frame training strategy that incorporates long-range frames beyond the local window for effective training. Our MatAnyone 2 achieves state-of-the-art performance on both synthetic and real-world benchmarks, surpassing prior methods across all metrics.

Crafting adversarial examples can be formulated as an optimization problem. While sign-based optimizers such as I-FGSM and MI-FGSM have become the de facto standard for the induced optimization problems, there still exist several unsolved problems in theoretical grounding and practical reliability especially in non-convergence and instability, which inevitably influences their transferability. Contrary to the expectation, we observe that the attack success rate may degrade sharply when more number of iterations are conducted. In this paper, we address these issues from an optimization perspective. By reformulating the sign-based optimizer as a specific coordinate-wise gradient descent, we argue that one cause for non-convergence and instability is their non-decaying step-size scheduling. Based upon this viewpoint, we propose a series of new attack algorithms that enforce Monotonically Decreasing Coordinate-wise Step-sizes (MDCS) within sign-based optimizers. Typically, we further provide theoretical guarantees proving that MDCS-MI attains an optimal convergence rate of O(1/\sqrt T ), where T is the number of iterations. Extensive experiments on image classification and cross-modal retrieval tasks demonstrate that our approach not only significantly improves transferability but also enhances attack stability compared to state-of-the-art sign-based methods.
