ActMVS: Active Scene Reconstruction with Monocular Multi-View StereoGuo Pu, Yixuan Han, Zhouhui Lian
Active scene reconstruction enables robots/UAVs to autonomously plan trajectories and reconstruct environments without costly manual data acquisition. Unlike passive methods, active reconstruction requires real-time construction of high-confidence occupancy maps for collision-free navigation. Existing approaches rely on depth sensors for occupancy map updates, increasing platform cost and weight. To advance spatial intelligence, we aim for a vision-only monocular solution. However, current monocular scene reconstruction methods operate offline and fail to deliver globally consistent dense depth at the frame rates required for robots/UAVs navigation. To bridge this gap, we introduce ActMVS, the first framework for monocular active reconstruction. Our framework integrates a view factor graph construction for informed Multi-View Stereo depth prediction, along with a global depth optimization, to enable the online generation of high-quality, globally consistent dense depth maps. This enables monocular robots/UAVs to maintain reliable occupancy maps for safe trajectory planning during reconstruction. Experiments on Replica datasets demonstrate performance competitive with RGB-D methods. Our code and data are available at https://github.com/TrickyGo/ActMVS.

AnimeAdapter: Fine-grained and Consistent Zero-shot Anime Character GenerationYixuan Han
We present a lightweight appearance adapter for Stable Diffusion that enables controllable and consistent anime character generation under diverse editing conditions. Instead of relying on large-scale vision-language models or per-subject fine-tuning, our method injects fine-grained visual features from a single reference image into the diffusion process. Based on CLIP emergent local spatialization, we develop semantic-selective local attention. To further disentangle character appearance from spatial layout, we incorporate pose-aware conditioning during adapter training. The resulting pretrained adapter remains compact, modular, and fully compatible with Stable Diffusion community workflows, while requiring no additional fine-tuning at deployment time. Furthermore, we present a high-quality anime character dataset based on curated and restructured Danbooru prompts, and evaluate our method across several practical character editing scenarios. Our code, model weights, and dataset will be publicly released upon acceptance.

Dynamic Experts Search: Enhancing Reasoning in Mixture-of-Experts LLMs at Test TimeYixuan Han, Fan Ma, Ruijie Quan et al.
Test-Time Scaling (TTS) enhances the reasoning ability of large language models (LLMs) by allocating additional computation during inference. However, existing approaches primarily rely on output-level sampling while overlooking the role of model architecture. In mainstream Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) LLMs, we observe that varying the number of activated experts yields complementary solution sets with stable accuracy, revealing a new and underexplored source of diversity. Motivated by this observation, we propose Dynamic Experts Search (DES), a TTS strategy that elevates expert activation into a controllable dimension of the search space. DES integrates two key components: (1) Dynamic MoE, which enables direct control of expert counts during inference to generate diverse reasoning trajectories without additional cost; and (2) Expert Configuration Inheritance, which preserves consistent expert counts within a reasoning path while varying them across runs, thereby balancing stability and diversity throughout the search. Extensive experiments across MoE architectures, verifiers and reasoning benchmarks (i.e., math, code and knowledge) demonstrate that DES reliably outperforms TTS baselines, enhancing accuracy and stability without additional cost. These results highlight DES as a practical and scalable form of architecture-aware TTS, illustrating how structural flexibility in modern LLMs can advance reasoning.
