Layer-Wise Modality Decomposition for Interpretable Multimodal Sensor FusionJaehyun Park, Konyul Park, Daehun Kim et al.
In autonomous driving, transparency in the decision-making of perception models is critical, as even a single misperception can be catastrophic. Yet with multi-sensor inputs, it is difficult to determine how each modality contributes to a prediction because sensor information becomes entangled within the fusion network. We introduce Layer-Wise Modality Decomposition (LMD), a post-hoc, model-agnostic interpretability method that disentangles modality-specific information across all layers of a pretrained fusion model. To our knowledge, LMD is the first approach to attribute the predictions of a perception model to individual input modalities in a sensor-fusion system for autonomous driving. We evaluate LMD on pretrained fusion models under camera-radar, camera-LiDAR, and camera-radar-LiDAR settings for autonomous driving. Its effectiveness is validated using structured perturbation-based metrics and modality-wise visual decompositions, demonstrating practical applicability to interpreting high-capacity multimodal architectures.

MAST: Mask-Guided Attention Mass Allocation for Training-Free Multi-Style TransferDongkyung Kang, Jaeyeon Hwang, Junseo Park et al.
Style transfer aims to render a content image with the visual characteristics of a reference style while preserving its underlying semantic layout and structural geometry. While recent diffusion-based models demonstrate strong stylization capabilities by leveraging powerful generative priors and controllable internal representations, they typically assume a single global style. Extending them to multi-style scenarios often leads to boundary artifacts, unstable stylization, and structural inconsistency due to interference between multiple style representations. To overcome these limitations, we propose MAST (Mask-Guided Attention Mass Allocation for Training-Free Multi-Style Transfer), a novel training-free framework that explicitly controls content-style interactions within the diffusion attention mechanism. To achieve artifact-free and structure-preserving stylization, MAST integrates four connected modules. First, Layout-preserving Query Anchoring prevents global layout collapse by firmly anchoring the semantic structure using content queries. Second, Logit-level Attention Mass Allocation deterministically distributes attention probability mass across spatial regions, seamlessly fusing multiple styles without boundary artifacts. Third, Sharpness-aware Temperature Scaling restores the attention sharpness degraded by multi-style expansion. Finally, Discrepancy-aware Detail Injection adaptively compensates for localized high-frequency detail losses by measuring structural discrepancies. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MAST effectively mitigates boundary artifacts and maintains structural consistency, preserving texture fidelity and spatial coherence even as the number of applied styles increases.

STONE Dataset: A Scalable Multi-Modal Surround-View 3D Traversability Dataset for Off-Road Robot NavigationKonyul Park, Daehun Kim, Jiyong Oh et al.
Reliable off-road navigation requires accurate estimation of traversable regions and robust perception under diverse terrain and sensing conditions. However, existing datasets lack both scalability and multi-modality, which limits progress in 3D traversability prediction. In this work, we introduce STONE, a large-scale multi-modal dataset for off-road navigation. STONE provides (1) trajectory-guided 3D traversability maps generated by a fully automated, annotation-free pipeline, and (2) comprehensive surround-view sensing with synchronized 128-channel LiDAR, six RGB cameras, and three 4D imaging radars. The dataset covers a wide range of environments and conditions, including day and night, grasslands, farmlands, construction sites, and lakes. Our auto-labeling pipeline reconstructs dense terrain surfaces from LiDAR scans, extracts geometric attributes such as slope, elevation, and roughness, and assigns traversability labels beyond the robot's trajectory using a Mahalanobis-distance-based criterion. This design enables scalable, geometry-aware ground-truth construction without manual annotation. Finally, we establish a benchmark for voxel-level 3D traversability prediction and provide strong baselines under both single-modal and multi-modal settings.

I2AM: Interpreting Image-to-Image Latent Diffusion Models via Bi-Attribution MapsJunseo Park, Hyeryung Jang
Large-scale diffusion models have made significant advances in image generation, particularly through cross-attention mechanisms. While cross-attention has been well-studied in text-to-image tasks, their interpretability in image-to-image (I2I) diffusion models remains underexplored. This paper introduces Image-to-Image Attribution Maps (I2AM), a method that enhances the interpretability of I2I models by visualizing bidirectional attribution maps, from the reference image to the generated image and vice versa. I2AM aggregates cross-attention scores across time steps, attention heads, and layers, offering insights into how critical features are transferred between images. We demonstrate the effectiveness of I2AM across object detection, inpainting, and super-resolution tasks. Our results demonstrate that I2AM successfully identifies key regions responsible for generating the output, even in complex scenes. Additionally, we introduce the Inpainting Mask Attention Consistency Score (IMACS) as a novel evaluation metric to assess the alignment between attribution maps and inpainting masks, which correlates strongly with existing performance metrics. Through extensive experiments, we show that I2AM enables model debugging and refinement, providing practical tools for improving I2I model's performance and interpretability.

ART-VITON: Measurement-Guided Latent Diffusion for Artifact-Free Virtual Try-OnJunseo Park, Hyeryung Jang
Virtual try-on (VITON) aims to generate realistic images of a person wearing a target garment, requiring precise garment alignment in try-on regions and faithful preservation of identity and background in non-try-on regions. While latent diffusion models (LDMs) have advanced alignment and detail synthesis, preserving non-try-on regions remains challenging. A common post-hoc strategy directly replaces these regions with original content, but abrupt transitions often produce boundary artifacts. To overcome this, we reformulate VITON as a linear inverse problem and adopt trajectory-aligned solvers that progressively enforce measurement consistency, reducing abrupt changes in non-try-on regions. However, existing solvers still suffer from semantic drift during generation, leading to artifacts. We propose ART-VITON, a measurement-guided diffusion framework that ensures measurement adherence while maintaining artifact-free synthesis. Our method integrates residual prior-based initialization to mitigate training-inference mismatch and artifact-free measurement-guided sampling that combines data consistency, frequency-level correction, and periodic standard denoising. Experiments on VITON-HD, DressCode, and SHHQ-1.0 demonstrate that ART-VITON effectively preserves identity and background, eliminates boundary artifacts, and consistently improves visual fidelity and robustness over state-of-the-art baselines.

MAESTRO: Task-Relevant Optimization via Adaptive Feature Enhancement and Suppression for Multi-task 3D PerceptionChangwon Kang, Jisong Kim, Hongjae Shin et al.
The goal of multi-task learning is to learn to conduct multiple tasks simultaneously based on a shared data representation. While this approach can improve learning efficiency, it may also cause performance degradation due to task conflicts that arise when optimizing the model for different objectives. To address this challenge, we introduce MAESTRO, a structured framework designed to generate task-specific features and mitigate feature interference in multi-task 3D perception, including 3D object detection, bird's-eye view (BEV) map segmentation, and 3D occupancy prediction. MAESTRO comprises three components: the Class-wise Prototype Generator (CPG), the Task-Specific Feature Generator (TSFG), and the Scene Prototype Aggregator (SPA). CPG groups class categories into foreground and background groups and generates group-wise prototypes. The foreground and background prototypes are assigned to the 3D object detection task and the map segmentation task, respectively, while both are assigned to the 3D occupancy prediction task. TSFG leverages these prototype groups to retain task-relevant features while suppressing irrelevant features, thereby enhancing the performance for each task. SPA enhances the prototype groups assigned for 3D occupancy prediction by utilizing the information produced by the 3D object detection head and the map segmentation head. Extensive experiments on the nuScenes and Occ3D benchmarks demonstrate that MAESTRO consistently outperforms existing methods across 3D object detection, BEV map segmentation, and 3D occupancy prediction tasks.

StyleForge: Enhancing Text-to-Image Synthesis for Any Artistic Styles with Dual BindingJunseo Park, Beomseok Ko, Hyeryung Jang
Recent advancements in text-to-image models, such as Stable Diffusion, have showcased their ability to create visual images from natural language prompts. However, existing methods like DreamBooth struggle with capturing arbitrary art styles due to the abstract and multifaceted nature of stylistic attributes. We introduce Single-StyleForge, a novel approach for personalized text-to-image synthesis across diverse artistic styles. Using approximately 15 to 20 images of the target style, Single-StyleForge establishes a foundational binding of a unique token identifier with a broad range of attributes of the target style. Additionally, auxiliary images are incorporated for dual binding that guides the consistent representation of crucial elements such as people within the target style. Furthermore, we present Multi-StyleForge, which enhances image quality and text alignment by binding multiple tokens to partial style attributes. Experimental evaluations across six distinct artistic styles demonstrate significant improvements in image quality and perceptual fidelity, as measured by FID, KID, and CLIP scores.
