OPD@NL4Opt: An ensemble approach for the NER task of the optimization problemKangxu Wang, Ze Chen, Jiewen Zheng
In this paper, we present an ensemble approach for the NL4Opt competition subtask 1(NER task). For this task, we first fine tune the pretrained language models based on the competition dataset. Then we adopt differential learning rates and adversarial training strategies to enhance the model generalization and robustness. Additionally, we use a model ensemble method for the final prediction, which achieves a micro-averaged F1 score of 93.3% and attains the second prize in the NER task.

Using Deep Mixture-of-Experts to Detect Word Meaning Shift for TempoWiCZe Chen, Kangxu Wang, Zijian Cai et al.
This paper mainly describes the dma submission to the TempoWiC task, which achieves a macro-F1 score of 77.05% and attains the first place in this task. We first explore the impact of different pre-trained language models. Then we adopt data cleaning, data augmentation, and adversarial training strategies to enhance the model generalization and robustness. For further improvement, we integrate POS information and word semantic representation using a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) approach. The experimental results show that MoE can overcome the feature overuse issue and combine the context, POS, and word semantic features well. Additionally, we use a model ensemble method for the final prediction, which has been proven effective by many research works.

Enhancing Model Performance in Multilingual Information Retrieval with Comprehensive Data Engineering TechniquesQi Zhang, Zijian Yang, Yilun Huang et al.
In this paper, we present our solution to the Multilingual Information Retrieval Across a Continuum of Languages (MIRACL) challenge of WSDM CUP 2023\footnote{https://project-miracl.github.io/}. Our solution focuses on enhancing the ranking stage, where we fine-tune pre-trained multilingual transformer-based models with MIRACL dataset. Our model improvement is mainly achieved through diverse data engineering techniques, including the collection of additional relevant training data, data augmentation, and negative sampling. Our fine-tuned model effectively determines the semantic relevance between queries and documents, resulting in a significant improvement in the efficiency of the multilingual information retrieval process. Finally, Our team is pleased to achieve remarkable results in this challenging competition, securing 2nd place in the Surprise-Languages track with a score of 0.835 and 3rd place in the Known-Languages track with an average nDCG@10 score of 0.716 across the 16 known languages on the final leaderboard.

MG-Grasp: Metric-Scale Geometric 6-DoF Grasping Framework with Sparse RGB ObservationsKangxu Wang, Siang Chen, Chenxing Jiang et al.
Single-view RGB-D grasp detection remains a common choice in 6-DoF robotic grasping systems, which typically requires a depth sensor. While RGB-only 6-DoF grasp methods has been studied recently, their inaccurate geometric representation is not directly suitable for physically reliable robotic manipulation, thereby hindering reliable grasp generation. To address these limitations, we propose MG-Grasp, a novel depth-free 6-DoF grasping framework that achieves high-quality object grasping. Leveraging two-view 3D foundation model with camera intrinsic/extrinsic, our method reconstructs metric-scale and multi-view consistent dense point clouds from sparse RGB images and generates stable 6-DoF grasp. Experiments on GraspNet-1Billion dataset and real world demonstrate that MG-Grasp achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) grasp performance among RGB-based 6-DoF grasping methods.

Butter: Frequency Consistency and Hierarchical Fusion for Autonomous Driving Object DetectionXiaojian Lin, Wenxin Zhang, Yuchu Jiang et al. · tsinghua
Hierarchical feature representations play a pivotal role in computer vision, particularly in object detection for autonomous driving. Multi-level semantic understanding is crucial for accurately identifying pedestrians, vehicles, and traffic signs in dynamic environments. However, existing architectures, such as YOLO and DETR, struggle to maintain feature consistency across different scales while balancing detection precision and computational efficiency. To address these challenges, we propose Butter, a novel object detection framework designed to enhance hierarchical feature representations for improving detection robustness. Specifically, Butter introduces two key innovations: Frequency-Adaptive Feature Consistency Enhancement (FAFCE) Component, which refines multi-scale feature consistency by leveraging adaptive frequency filtering to enhance structural and boundary precision, and Progressive Hierarchical Feature Fusion Network (PHFFNet) Module, which progressively integrates multi-level features to mitigate semantic gaps and strengthen hierarchical feature learning. Through extensive experiments on BDD100K, KITTI, and Cityscapes, Butter demonstrates superior feature representation capabilities, leading to notable improvements in detection accuracy while reducing model complexity. By focusing on hierarchical feature refinement and integration, Butter provides an advanced approach to object detection that achieves a balance between accuracy, deployability, and computational efficiency in real-time autonomous driving scenarios. Our model and implementation are publicly available at https://github.com/Aveiro-Lin/Butter, facilitating further research and validation within the autonomous driving community.

WaterSplat-SLAM: Photorealistic Monocular SLAM in Underwater EnvironmentKangxu Wang, Shaofeng Zou, Chenxing Jiang et al.
Underwater monocular SLAM is a challenging problem with applications from autonomous underwater vehicles to marine archaeology. However, existing underwater SLAM methods struggle to produce maps with high-fidelity rendering. In this paper, we propose WaterSplat-SLAM, a novel monocular underwater SLAM system that achieves robust pose estimation and photorealistic dense mapping. Specifically, we couple semantic medium filtering into two-view 3D reconstruction prior to enable underwater-adapted camera tracking and depth estimation. Furthermore, we present a semantic-guided rendering and adaptive map management strategy with an online medium-aware Gaussian map, modeling underwater environment in a photorealistic and compact manner. Experiments on multiple underwater datasets demonstrate that WaterSplat-SLAM achieves robust camera tracking and high-fidelity rendering in underwater environments.

Model Fusion with Multi-LoRA Inference for Tool-Enhanced Game Dialogue AgentsKangxu Wang, Ze Chen, Chengcheng Wei et al.
This paper presents the opdainlp team's solution for the GPU track of the CPDC 2025 challenge. The challenge consists of three tasks, aiming to build an in-game conversational AI that adheres to character personas, aligns with the game's worldview, and supports function calling. Considering both effectiveness and resource/time constraints during inference, we synthesized data for some of the tasks based on the datasets provided by the competition organizers. We employed Qwen3-14B with LoRA fine-tuning and model fusion, and utilized a base model integrated with multiple LoRA adapters during inference. Specifically, in the competition, we used three distinct LoRA adapters to handle tool calling, response generation with tool call results, and response generation without tool call results, respectively. MultiLoRA inference was implemented using vLLM. Our solution achieved the first place in Task 1 and Task 3, and the second place in Task 2 of the GPU track.
