GHOST: Geometry-Hierarchical Online Streaming Token Eviction for Efficient 3D Reconstruction

Leyang Chen, Junyi Wu, Zhiteng Li et al.

Streaming 3D reconstruction from long monocular video sequences requires maintaining a key-value (KV) cache that grows linearly with sequence length, creating a severe memory bottleneck. Existing approaches either truncate the cache to a fixed set of anchor frames, leading to reconstruction quality degradation, or rely on attention-score heuristics that are agnostic to 3D scene structure, failing to preserve geometrically valuable tokens. To address these problems, we present GHOST (Geometry-Hierarchical Online Streaming Token Eviction), a training-free KV cache management framework that exploits the model's own 3D geometry outputs to evict redundant tokens online. GHOST introduces three mutually reinforcing innovations: a hierarchical dual-level importance scoring scheme, a privilege mechanism that protects special tokens from eviction, and a cosine-similarity-guided layer-wise budget allocation. Experiments on various benchmarks show that GHOST preserves excellent reconstruction quality while cutting the KV cache by nearly half and delivering 1.75x faster inference compared to state-of-the-art methods. Our code is available at https://github.com/lokiniuniu/GHOST.

PlanViz: Evaluating Planning-Oriented Image Generation and Editing for Computer-Use Tasks

Junxian Li, Kai Liu, Leyang Chen et al.

Unified multimodal models (UMMs) have shown impressive capabilities in generating natural images and supporting multimodal reasoning. However, their potential in supporting computer-use planning tasks, which are closely related to our lives, remain underexplored. Image generation and editing in computer-use tasks require capabilities like spatial reasoning and procedural understanding, and it is still unknown whether UMMs have these capabilities to finish these tasks or not. Therefore, we propose PlanViz, a new benchmark designed to evaluate image generation and editing for computer-use tasks. To achieve the goal of our evaluation, we focus on sub-tasks which frequently involve in daily life and require planning steps. Specifically, three new sub-tasks are designed: route planning, work diagramming, and web&UI displaying. We address challenges in data quality ensuring by curating human-annotated questions and reference images, and a quality control process. For challenges of comprehensive and exact evaluation, a task-adaptive score, PlanScore, is proposed. The score helps understanding the correctness, visual quality and efficiency of generated images. Through experiments, we highlight key limitations and opportunities for future research on this topic.

UmniBench: Unified Understand and Generation Model Oriented Omni-dimensional Benchmark

Kai Liu, Leyang Chen, Wenbo Li et al.

Unifying multimodal understanding and generation has shown impressive capabilities in cutting-edge proprietary systems. However, evaluations of unified multimodal models (UMMs) remain decoupled, assessing their understanding and generation abilities separately with corresponding datasets. To address this, we propose UmniBench, a benchmark tailored for UMMs with omni-dimensional evaluation. First, UmniBench can assess the understanding, generation, and editing ability within a single evaluation process. Based on human-examined prompts and QA pairs, UmniBench leverages UMM itself to evaluate its generation and editing ability with its understanding ability. This simple but effective paradigm allows comprehensive evaluation of UMMs. Second, UmniBench covers 13 major domains and more than 200 concepts, ensuring a thorough inspection of UMMs. Moreover, UmniBench can also decouple and separately evaluate understanding, generation, and editing abilities, providing a fine-grained assessment. Based on UmniBench, we benchmark 24 popular models, including both UMMs and single-ability large models. We hope this benchmark provides a more comprehensive and objective view of unified models and logistical support for improving the performance of the community model.
