Although Video Large Language Models (Video LLMs) have shown strong performance in video understanding, their efficiency is still limited by the large number of visual tokens. Existing video token compression methods typically rely on frame-wise saliency or heuristic token merging, which can over-focus on locally salient regions and produce ambiguous fused features. To address these issues, we propose GeoTrace, a training-free spatiotemporal token compression framework that decomposes video evidence into exact skeleton tokens and traceable residual event tokens. Specifically, Contextual Farthest-Point Anchoring (CFPA) preserves salient, context-consistent, and high-coverage skeleton tokens, while Trajectory-Constrained Residual Condensation (TCRC) compresses residual tokens through one-to-one temporal trajectories and constrained near-manifold condensation, producing traceable event tokens with reduced ambiguity. We evaluate GeoTrace on four Video LLMs across four video understanding benchmarks, and the results demonstrate its effectiveness and generalization across different model architectures and scenarios. On LLaVA-OneVision, with only 10\% visual tokens retained, GeoTrace achieves a \(12.99\times\) TFLOPs reduction while preserving 99.1\% of the vanilla performance. Overall, GeoTrace offers a compact and traceable token representation for efficient and robust Video LLM inference.

Few-shot anomaly detection (FSAD) has made significant strides, yet existing methods still face critical challenges: (i) dependence on task- or dataset-specific training/fine-tuning, (ii) reliance on language supervision or carefully hand-crafted prompts, and (iii) limited robustness across domains. In this paper, we introduce HyperFSAD, a novel FSAD framework that is training-free, language-free, and robust across domains, offering a powerful solution to these challenges. Built upon DINOv3 and a hypergraph-based inference mechanism, our approach performs inference without any task-specific optimization or text prompts, while remaining competitive. Specifically, we replace sensitive nearest-neighbor / top-$n$ matching with \textbf{Sparse Hyper Matching}: \textit{sparsemax} first selects the most relevant support patches, which are then aggregated into a \textit{hyperedge} as compact normal evidence to suppress background noise and distractors. We further introduce \textbf{Dual-Branch Image Scoring}, which fuses \emph{spatial anomaly evidence} from the patch-grid anomaly map with \emph{global semantic deviation} captured by support-aware CLS matching, yielding a robust image-level anomaly score in a strictly visual manner. Notably, all components of HyperFSAD are purely visual, eliminating the need for labor-intensive hand-crafted text prompts. Under the stringent training-free and language-free setting, HyperFSAD achieves state-of-the-art performance across six datasets spanning four industrial datasets (MVTecAD, VisA, MPDD, BTAD) and two medical datasets (RESC, BraTS).

Generalized few-shot semantic segmentation (GFSS) is fundamentally limited by the coverage of novel-class appearances under scarce annotations. While diffusion models can synthesize novel-class images at scale, practical gains are often hindered by insufficient coverage and noisy supervision when masks are unavailable or unreliable. We propose Syn4Seg, a generation-enhanced GFSS framework designed to expand novel-class coverage while improving pseudo-label quality. Syn4Seg first maximizes prompt-space coverage by constructing an embedding-deduplicated prompt bank for each novel class, yielding diverse yet class-consistent synthetic images. It then performs support-guided pseudo-label estimation via a two-stage refinement that i) filters low-consistency regions to obtain high-precision seeds and ii) relabels uncertain pixels with image-adaptive prototypes that combine global (support) and local (image) statistics. Finally, we refine only boundary-band and unlabeled pixels using a constrained SAM-based update to improve contour fidelity without overwriting high-confidence interiors. Extensive experiments on PASCAL-$5^i$ and COCO-$20^i$ demonstrate consistent improvements in both 1-shot and 5-shot settings, highlighting synthetic data as a scalable path for GFSS with reliable masks and precise boundaries.
