The B-mode ultrasound based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) has demonstrated its effectiveness for diagnosis of Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) in infants. However, due to effect of speckle noise in ultrasound im-ages, it is still a challenge task to accurately detect hip landmarks. In this work, we propose a novel hip landmark detection model by integrating the Topological GCN (TGCN) with an Improved Conformer (TGCN-ICF) into a unified frame-work to improve detection performance. The TGCN-ICF includes two subnet-works: an Improved Conformer (ICF) subnetwork to generate heatmaps and a TGCN subnetwork to additionally refine landmark detection. This TGCN can effectively improve detection accuracy with the guidance of class labels. Moreo-ver, a Mutual Modulation Fusion (MMF) module is developed for deeply ex-changing and fusing the features extracted from the U-Net and Transformer branches in ICF. The experimental results on the real DDH dataset demonstrate that the proposed TGCN-ICF outperforms all the compared algorithms.

3D Gaussian Splatting (3D-GS) has emerged as an efficient 3D representation and a promising foundation for semantic tasks like segmentation. However, existing 3D-GS-based segmentation methods typically rely on high-dimensional category features, which introduce substantial memory overhead. Moreover, fine-grained segmentation remains challenging due to label space congestion and the lack of stable multi-granularity control mechanisms. To address these limitations, we propose a coarse-to-fine binary encoding scheme for per-Gaussian category representation, which compresses each feature into a single integer via the binary-to-decimal mapping, drastically reducing memory usage. We further design a progressive training strategy that decomposes panoptic segmentation into a series of independent sub-tasks, reducing inter-class conflicts and thereby enhancing fine-grained segmentation capability. Additionally, we fine-tune opacity during segmentation training to address the incompatibility between photometric rendering and semantic segmentation, which often leads to foreground-background confusion. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmarks demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art segmentation performance while significantly reducing memory consumption and accelerating inference.
