X-Transfer: A Transfer Learning-Based Framework for GAN-Generated Fake Image DetectionLei Zhang, Hao Chen, Shu Hu et al.
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have remarkably advanced in diverse domains, especially image generation and editing. However, the misuse of GANs for generating deceptive images, such as face replacement, raises significant security concerns, which have gained widespread attention. Therefore, it is urgent to develop effective detection methods to distinguish between real and fake images. Current research centers around the application of transfer learning. Nevertheless, it encounters challenges such as knowledge forgetting from the original dataset and inadequate performance when dealing with imbalanced data during training. To alleviate this issue, this paper introduces a novel GAN-generated image detection algorithm called X-Transfer, which enhances transfer learning by utilizing two neural networks that employ interleaved parallel gradient transmission. In addition, we combine AUC loss and cross-entropy loss to improve the model's performance. We carry out comprehensive experiments on multiple facial image datasets. The results show that our model outperforms the general transferring approach, and the best metric achieves 99.04%, which is increased by approximately 10%. Furthermore, we demonstrate excellent performance on non-face datasets, validating its generality and broader application prospects.

RemInD: Remembering Anatomical Variations for Interpretable Domain Adaptive Medical Image SegmentationXin Wang, Yin Guo, Kaiyu Zhang et al.
This work presents a novel Bayesian framework for unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) in medical image segmentation. While prior works have explored this clinically significant task using various strategies of domain alignment, they often lack an explicit and explainable mechanism to ensure that target image features capture meaningful structural information. Besides, these methods are prone to the curse of dimensionality, inevitably leading to challenges in interpretability and computational efficiency. To address these limitations, we propose RemInD, a framework inspired by human adaptation. RemInD learns a domain-agnostic latent manifold, characterized by several anchors, to memorize anatomical variations. By mapping images onto this manifold as weighted anchor averages, our approach ensures realistic and reliable predictions. This design mirrors how humans develop representative components to understand images and then retrieve component combinations from memory to guide segmentation. Notably, model prediction is determined by two explainable factors: a low-dimensional anchor weight vector, and a spatial deformation. This design facilitates computationally efficient and geometry-adherent adaptation by aligning weight vectors between domains on a probability simplex. Experiments on two public datasets, encompassing cardiac and abdominal imaging, demonstrate the superiority of RemInD, which achieves state-of-the-art performance using a single alignment approach, outperforming existing methods that often rely on multiple complex alignment strategies.

Unified and Semantically Grounded Domain Adaptation for Medical Image SegmentationXin Wang, Yin Guo, Jiamin Xia et al.
Most prior unsupervised domain adaptation approaches for medical image segmentation are narrowly tailored to either the source-accessible setting, where adaptation is guided by source-target alignment, or the source-free setting, which typically resorts to implicit supervision mechanisms such as pseudo-labeling and model distillation. This substantial divergence in methodological designs between the two settings reveals an inherent flaw: the lack of an explicit, structured construction of anatomical knowledge that naturally generalizes across domains and settings. To bridge this longstanding divide, we introduce a unified, semantically grounded framework that supports both source-accessible and source-free adaptation. Fundamentally distinct from all prior works, our framework's adaptability emerges naturally as a direct consequence of the model architecture, without the need for any handcrafted adaptation strategies. Specifically, our model learns a domain-agnostic probabilistic manifold as a global space of anatomical regularities, mirroring how humans establish visual understanding. Thus, the structural content in each image can be interpreted as a canonical anatomy retrieved from the manifold and a spatial transformation capturing individual-specific geometry. This disentangled, interpretable formulation enables semantically meaningful prediction with intrinsic adaptability. Extensive experiments on challenging cardiac and abdominal datasets show that our framework achieves state-of-the-art results in both settings, with source-free performance closely approaching its source-accessible counterpart, a level of consistency rarely observed in prior works. Beyond quantitative improvement, we demonstrate strong interpretability of the proposed framework via manifold traversal for smooth shape manipulation.

Guided Feature Selection for Deep Visual OdometryFei Xue, Qiuyuan Wang, Xin Wang et al.
We present a novel end-to-end visual odometry architecture with guided feature selection based on deep convolutional recurrent neural networks. Different from current monocular visual odometry methods, our approach is established on the intuition that features contribute discriminately to different motion patterns. Specifically, we propose a dual-branch recurrent network to learn the rotation and translation separately by leveraging current Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for feature representation and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) for image sequence reasoning. To enhance the ability of feature selection, we further introduce an effective context-aware guidance mechanism to force each branch to distill related information for specific motion pattern explicitly. Experiments demonstrate that on the prevalent KITTI and ICL_NUIM benchmarks, our method outperforms current state-of-the-art model- and learning-based methods for both decoupled and joint camera pose recovery.
