Open-vocabulary detectors (OvOD) inherit tightly coupled cross-modal knowledge from web-scale pretraining, creating privacy, copyright, and compliance risks. Existing machine unlearning methods face geometric entanglement interference in OvOD: forgetting updates inevitably distort preserved knowledge due to shared semantic factors in decomposable embeddings. We introduce SafeDetect, a geometrically constrained unlearning framework that constructs a null-space from preserved knowledge embeddings offline, then constrains parameter updates to this orthogonal complement, mathematically preventing interference with retained concepts. Forgetting is achieved through a one-step mean-flow objective that drives forgotten concepts toward non-detectable, while multimodal decoupling prevents cross-modal recovery. We establish UOD-Bench, the first unified benchmark for OvOD unlearning, featuring 14.7K images with 67.3K region-phrase pairs across three tasks. Extensive experiments across UOD-Bench and standard benchmarks with diverse architectures (e.g., GroundingDINO, LLM-Det) demonstrate that SafeDetect achieves superior forgetting efficacy (64.75% improvement over NPO) while maintaining stable retention performance and significantly better zero-shot generalization, with 1.5x faster convergence than iterative methods.

Classifier-Free Guidance (CFG) is a cornerstone of modern conditional diffusion models, yet its reliance on the fixed or heuristic dynamic guidance weight is predominantly empirical and overlooks the inherent dynamics of the diffusion process. In this paper, we provide a rigorous theoretical analysis of the Classifier-Free Guidance. Specifically, we establish strict upper bounds on the score discrepancy between conditional and unconditional distributions at different timesteps based on the diffusion process.This finding explains the limitations of fixed-weight strategies and establishes a principled foundation for time-dependent guidance. Motivated by this insight, we introduce **Control Classifier-Free Guidance (C^2FG)**, a novel, training-free, and plug-in method that aligns the guidance strength with the diffusion dynamics via an exponential decay control function. Extensive experiments demonstrate that C^2FG is effective and broadly applicable across diverse generative tasks, while also exhibiting orthogonality to existing strategies.

Current few-shot action recognition methods achieve impressive performance by learning representative prototypes and designing diverse video matching strategies. However, these approaches typically face two critical limitations: i) prototypes learned through implicit sample interactions lack clear semantic correspondence between query-support pairs, limiting their class representativeness; ii) the independent design of prototype learning and matching mechanisms creates a potential incompatibility between prototype representations and matching strategies. To address these limitations, we propose a Match-guided Prototype Learning (MPL) method comprising two key components: enhanced match (E-Match) and key-frame extraction match (K-Match). E-Match explicitly enhances prototype learning in class-specific embeddings by incorporating the matched semantics of query samples, while K-Match further refines the prototype representation through key-frame matching at the fine-grained frame level. Additionally, we propose a Cross-Shot Attention Aggregator (CSA-Aggregator) that dynamically aggregates adjacent frames across support samples, thereby obtaining a prototype representation that captures intra-class shared action patterns. In this way, the proposed MPL effectively mines coarse-to-fine, match-guided semantic information from query-support pairs to generate discriminative class prototypes, and improve the compatibility of prototype representation with the match mechanism. Extensive evaluations on four public datasets confirm that MPL achieves superior performance over leading few-shot action recognition techniques.

Image watermarking supports authenticity and provenance, yet many schemes are still easy to bypass with various distortions and powerful generative edits. Deep learning-based watermarking has improved robustness to diffusion-based image editing, but a gap remains when a watermarked image is converted to video by image-to-video (I2V), in which per-frame watermark detection weakens. I2V has quickly advanced from short, jittery clips to multi-second, temporally coherent scenes, and it now serves not only content creation but also world-modeling and simulation workflows, making cross-modal watermark recovery crucial. We present WaTeRFlow, a framework tailored for robustness under I2V. It consists of (i) FUSE (Flow-guided Unified Synthesis Engine), which exposes the encoder-decoder to realistic distortions via instruction-driven edits and a fast video diffusion proxy during training, (ii) optical-flow warping with a Temporal Consistency Loss (TCL) that stabilizes per-frame predictions, and (iii) a semantic preservation loss that maintains the conditioning signal. Experiments across representative I2V models show accurate watermark recovery from frames, with higher first-frame and per-frame bit accuracy and resilience when various distortions are applied before or after video generation.

Recovering global human and camera motion from monocular video is essential for world-coordinate human reconstruction but remains challenging due to entangled motions in image space. Traditional SLAM methods estimate monocular camera motion but fail in scenes dominated by foreground objects such as humans. A common workaround is to mask out dynamic objects, yet this approach becomes brittle when humans occupy most of the view or the background is too noisy, leading to unstable tracking and loss of constraints. This paper takes the opposite stance and reintegrates human motion as informative landmarks. We introduce HumanBA, a human-aware bundle adjustment framework that transforms dynamic humans into usable constraints via motion decoupling. HumanBA subtracts the human-induced component from observed joint trajectories, isolating a camera-induced (pseudo-static) component that can be safely incorporated into bundle adjustment alongside background features. To mitigate noise in global human estimates, HumanBA applies motion refinements and motion-aware reliability weighting. Across EMDB and SLOPER4D benchmarks, we show consistent improvements on camera pose estimation and reduce global human reconstruction error, demonstrating the benefits of treating humans as dynamic yet informative landmarks. Our code is available at https://github.com/MartaYang/HumanBA.

Person De-Reidentification (De-ReID) is an emerging and safety-critical task that aims to selectively forget specific individuals in surveillance systems while preserving the recognition capability for others. Existing methods typically learn both forgetting and retaining objectives within a unified feature space, which leads to conflicting optimization goals and may cause unexpected performance degradation on novel or retained identities. We provide a new perspective to handle De-ReID through feature space decoupling. Although it is a promising solution, discriminating which feature space should be used for the given novel query remain unsolved. To alleviate these challenges, we propose SANER, advancing De-ReID with a Switchable Adapter (SA) and a test-time Non-parametric Enhanced Routing (NER) algorithm. SA decouples the pre-trained feature space into two task-specific subspaces with a forgetting adapter and a retaining adapter. The former suppresses identity-specific semantics for de-identification, while the latter preserves discriminative cues for accurate re-ID. In addition, SA is further enhanced with NER to adaptively analyze optimal feature space routing for the given query at test-time by comparing the query with pre-computed prototypes in the original feature space. Extensive experiments on multiple De-ReID benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of SANER, achieving new state-of-the-art De-ReID performance.

Conventional monocular depth estimators suffer from visual ambiguities and nuisances. We demonstrate that language can improve the fidelity of estimates by providing additional information through text as a condition, thereby reducing the solution space for depth estimates. This conditional distribution is learned during text-to-image pre-training of diffusion models. To generate images under various viewpoints and layouts that reflect textual descriptions, the model implicitly encodes object shapes and their spatial relationships, comprising the 3-dimensional (3D) scene structure. We investigate the benefits of integrating text descriptions into the training and inference of the diffusion-based monocular depth estimators (MDE). We experiment with three different diffusion-based MDEs, namely Marigold, Lotus, and E2E-FT, and their variants. By training on HyperSim and Virtual KITTI, and evaluating on NYUv2, KITTI, ETH3D, ScanNet, and DIODE, we find that our strategy of integrating text into MDEs improves the overall accuracy of depth estimates, especially in small areas. The effect is also targeted in that improvements are more pronounced in specific regions described in the text. Naturally, this lends to iterative refinement of the depth estimate by providing additional descriptions of the 3D scene. Separately, we find that incorporating text can accelerate convergence of training and the inference diffusion trajectory.

Material classification has emerged as a critical task in computer vision and graphics, supporting the assignment of accurate material properties to a wide range of digital and real-world applications. While traditionally framed as an image classification task, this domain faces significant challenges due to the scarcity of annotated data, limiting the accuracy and generalizability of trained models. Recent advances in vision-language foundation models (VLMs) offer promising avenues to address these issues, yet existing solutions leveraging these models still exhibit unsatisfying results in material recognition tasks. In this work, we propose a novel framework that effectively harnesses foundation models to overcome data limitations and enhance classification accuracy. Our method integrates two key innovations:(a) a robust image generation and auto-labeling pipeline that creates a diverse and high-quality training dataset with material-centric images, and automatically assigns labels by fusing object semantics and material attributes in text prompts; (b) a prior incorporation strategy to distill information from VLMs, combined with a joint fine-tuning method that optimizes a pre-trained vision foundation model alongside VLM-derived priors, preserving broad generalizability while adapting to material-specific features.Extensive experiments demonstrate significant improvements on multiple datasets. We show that our synthetic dataset effectively captures the characteristics of real world materials, and the integration of priors from vision-language models significantly enhances the final performance.
