Wan-Streamer v0.2: Higher Resolution, Same LatencyLianghua Huang, Zhi-Fan Wu, Yupeng Shi et al.
We present Wan-Streamer v0.2, a latency-preserving upgrade of the native-streaming, end-to-end audio-visual interaction model. v0.2 keeps the v0.1 modeling formulation, but raises the interactive output stream from 192x336 to 640x368 while preserving approximately 200 ms model-side signal-to-signal latency at 25 FPS. The higher-resolution stream supports scene-grounded mid-shot agents whose posture, gaze, hands, nearby objects, and local scene layout remain legible during real-time conversation. To support the larger visual stream without adding user-visible delay, v0.2 keeps the thinker as a single-GPU low-latency path for streaming perception, the short language/state Transformer pass that builds the generation cache, and final decoding. The performer becomes a multi-GPU Ulysses-style context-parallel group for the expensive next-unit latent generation. Each performer rank writes incoming K/V into a pre-sharded local cache. The long high-resolution latent video sequence is split across ranks for denoising and gathered through Ulysses communication, while the much shorter audio latent sequence is generated without sequence sharding. In this split, the thinker's language/state computation reaches the performer only as K/V conditioning, so no separate language sequence has to be communicated inside the performer group. This concentrates additional hardware on visual generation while preserving the compact thinker-performer boundary, keeping total remote interaction latency at approximately 550 ms when a 350 ms bidirectional network budget is included.

Fully Rotation-Equivariant Spectral-Spatial Learning for Multispectral Object DetectionPeng Zhang, Tingfa Xu, Shuaihao Han et al.
Existing multispectral detectors are limited by discrete spectral processing, a scale-dependent shift in the relative reliability of spectral and spatial cues across pyramid levels, and the lack of explicit rotation-equivariant geometric priors for arbitrarily oriented objects. To tackle these limitations, we propose FressDet, a fully rotation-equivariant spectral-spatial learning framework for multispectral object detection, capable of capturing the continuous, ordered nature of spectral structure and enabling reliable spectral-spatial fusion across pyramid levels under arbitrary in-plane rotations. FressDet integrates three complementary components. Spectral Implicit Warp (SpeIW) enables query-based spectral resampling via a coordinate-conditioned implicit field, yielding a monotone, order-preserving warp. Rotation-Equivariant Consistency Weighting (ReCoW) adaptively fuses spectral and spatial branches based on branch reliability, reinforcing informative cues while suppressing noise across pyramid levels. The oriented-aware head exploits group-indexed features to stably predict oriented objects without parameter replication. Taken together, FressDet learns more discriminative and robust spectral-spatial representations even under rotational perturbations. By achieving state-of-the-art performance with 93% fewer parameters on three public benchmarks, FressDet demonstrates its effectiveness and generalizability.
