Image restoration under diverse degradations remains challenging for unified all-in-one frameworks due to feature interference and insufficient expert specialization. We propose SLER-IR, a spherical layer-wise expert routing framework that dynamically activates specialized experts across network layers. To ensure reliable routing, we introduce a Spherical Uniform Degradation Embedding with contrastive learning, which maps degradation representations onto a hypersphere to eliminate geometry bias in linear embedding spaces. In addition, a Global-Local Granularity Fusion (GLGF) module integrates global semantics and local degradation cues to address spatially non-uniform degradations and the train-test granularity gap. Experiments on three-task and five-task benchmarks demonstrate that SLER-IR achieves consistent improvements over state-of-the-art methods in both PSNR and SSIM. Code and models will be publicly released.

We introduce the challenging problem of multi-object system identification from videos, for which prior methods are ill-suited due to their focus on single-object scenes or discrete material classification with a fixed set of material prototypes. To address this, we propose MOSIV, a new framework that directly optimizes for continuous, per-object material parameters using a differentiable simulator guided by geometric objectives derived from video. We also present a new synthetic benchmark with contact-rich, multi-object interactions to facilitate evaluation. On this benchmark, MOSIV substantially improves grounding accuracy and long-horizon simulation fidelity over adapted baselines, establishing it as a strong baseline for this new task. Our analysis shows that object-level fine-grained supervision and geometry-aligned objectives are critical for stable optimization in these complex, multi-object settings. The source code and dataset will be released.

Obstacle avoidance in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), as a fundamental capability, has gained increasing attention with the growing focus on spatial intelligence. However, current obstacle-avoidance methods mainly depend on limited field-of-view sensors and are ill-suited for UAV scenarios which require full-spatial awareness when the movement direction differs from the UAV's heading. This limitation motivates us to explore omnidirectional obstacle avoidance for panoramic drones with full-view perception. We first study an under explored problem setting in which a UAV must generate collision-free motion in environments with obstacles from arbitrary directions, and then construct a benchmark that consists of three representative flight tasks. Based on such settings, we propose Fly360, a two-stage perception-decision pipeline with a fixed random-yaw training strategy. At the perception stage, panoramic RGB observations are input and converted into depth maps as a robust intermediate representation. For the policy network, it is lightweight and used to output body-frame velocity commands from depth inputs. Extensive simulation and real-world experiments demonstrate that Fly360 achieves stable omnidirectional obstacle avoidance and outperforms forward-view baselines across all tasks.
