For the problems of low recognition rate and slow recognition speed of traditional detection methods in IC appearance defect detection, we propose an IC appearance defect detection algo-rithm IH-ViT. Our proposed model takes advantage of the respective strengths of CNN and ViT to acquire image features from both local and global aspects, and finally fuses the two features for decision making to determine the class of defects, thus obtaining better accuracy of IC defect recognition. To address the problem that IC appearance defects are mainly reflected in the dif-ferences in details, which are difficult to identify by traditional algorithms, we improved the tra-ditional ViT by performing an additional convolution operation inside the batch. For the problem of information imbalance of samples due to diverse sources of data sets, we adopt a dual-channel image segmentation technique to further improve the accuracy of IC appearance defects. Finally, after testing, our proposed hybrid IH-ViT model achieved 72.51% accuracy, which is 2.8% and 6.06% higher than ResNet50 and ViT models alone. The proposed algorithm can quickly and accurately detect the defect status of IC appearance and effectively improve the productivity of IC packaging and testing companies.

Generative models are widely used in visual content creation. However, current text-to-image models often face challenges in practical applications-such as textile pattern design and meme generation-due to the presence of unwanted elements that are difficult to separate with existing methods. Meanwhile, subject-reference generation has emerged as a key research trend, highlighting the need for techniques that can produce clean, high-quality subject images while effectively removing extraneous components. To address this challenge, we introduce a framework for reliable subject-centric image generation. In this work, we propose an entropy-based feature-weighted fusion method to merge the informative cross-attention features obtained from each sampling step of the pretrained text-to-image model FLUX, enabling a precise mask prediction and subject-centric generation. Additionally, we have developed an agent framework based on Large Language Models (LLMs) that translates users' casual inputs into more descriptive prompts, leading to highly detailed image generation. Simultaneously, the agents extract primary elements of prompts to guide the entropy-based feature fusion, ensuring focused primary element generation without extraneous components. Experimental results and user studies demonstrate our methods generates high-quality subject-centric images, outperform existing methods or other possible pipelines, highlighting the effectiveness of our approach.

Existing optical flow datasets focus primarily on real-world simulation or synthetic human motion, but few are tailored to Celluloid(cel) anime character motion: a domain with unique visual and motion characteristics. To bridge this gap and facilitate research in optical flow estimation and downstream tasks such as anime video generation and line drawing colorization, we introduce LinkTo-Anime, the first high-quality dataset specifically designed for cel anime character motion generated with 3D model rendering. LinkTo-Anime provides rich annotations including forward and backward optical flow, occlusion masks, and Mixamo Skeleton. The dataset comprises 395 video sequences, totally 24,230 training frames, 720 validation frames, and 4,320 test frames. Furthermore, a comprehensive benchmark is constructed with various optical flow estimation methods to analyze the shortcomings and limitations across multiple datasets.
