LLM-based CAD agents produce executable parametric programs, but their correction loops may lose evidence about satisfied requirements, faulty operations, and prior repairs. We introduce TraceCAD, a recovery layer that links requested features, modeling steps, failure evidence, and candidate outcomes as persistent state. TraceCAD diagnoses likely faulty operations, searches bounded edits in their dependency regions, validates candidates through execution and preservation checks, and retains successful and failed repair outcomes in reusable skill memory. On DeepCAD-derived benchmarks with 200-model ablations and a 1K-model comparison, TraceCAD achieves competitive geometric quality in terms of IoU, Chamfer distance, and Hausdorff distance. Removing persistent state nearly halves recovery score; removing localized search more than doubles geometric regression and doubles code-agent invocations. Initializing the skill store on disjoint training models further reduces retries, token cost, and latency. These results demonstrate that persistent, localized, and reusable recovery improves final CAD quality and repair reliability.

Referring Remote Sensing Image Segmentation (RRSIS) has achieved significant progress through the integration of VLMs and the Segment Anything Model (SAM). However, this progress largely relies on strong pre-trained capabilities, while leaving two fundamental limitations insufficiently addressed: (1) Architectural Weak-Coupling, where the unidirectional flow forces reliance on coarse VLM prompts and wastes SAM's pixel-level structural guidance, causing localization drift; and (2) Object-Centric Semantic Bias, where models overemphasize dominant object semantics while remaining insensitive to spatial reasoning crucial for RRSIS. Motivated by these observations, we propose CROSS, a tightly integrated paradigm for RRSIS. First, we introduce Linguistic-Guided Cascaded Distillation (LGCD) to bridge the architectural gap, which distills SAM's geometric affinities as soft regularizers into VLM intermediate layers, injecting dense structural priors to refine localization. Second, Perspective-Spatial Contrastive Learning (PSCL) imposes cross-anchored constraints by mining mask-filtered deceptive distractors and spatial-linguistic counterfactuals as hard negatives, explicitly shattering semantic shortcuts to enforce genuine logical consistency. Extensive experiments on RRSIS benchmarks demonstrate that CROSS achieves state-of-the-art performance and maintains precise localization even under severe spatial description perturbations, standing as a robust new paradigm for RRSIS.

Geospatial and urban applications increasingly require models to compare heterogeneous evidence across street-view imagery, remote-sensing observations, text descriptions, region proposals, and temporal change cues. However, existing multimodal embedding models and benchmarks are still largely designed and evaluated around general-purpose image-text matching, leaving unclear whether unified embedding space can support heterogeneous geospatial tasks involving spatial relationships, fine-grained semantics, and temporal changes. To address this gap, we make three key contributions. First, we introduce GeoMEB, a large-scale multimodal embedding benchmark that standardizes 45 urban evaluation tasks across retrieval, visual question answering, change detection, classification, and visual grounding, together with training collections comprising 1.32M examples and 286K evaluation queries. Second, we present Geo-Embed, a unified embedding model that adapts a shared vision-language backbone to instruction-conditioned query-target matching over heterogeneous geospatial inputs, including single images, multiple images, text, regions, and masks. On GeoMEB, Geo-Embed achieves the strongest overall performance among representative multimodal embedders, with a 15.3% relative improvement over the strongest baseline. These results motivate future geospatial embedders that organize training and evaluation around explicit query-target relations, including semantic, cross-view, region-level, and temporal correspondence.

The rapid proliferation of Electric Vehicles (EVs) introduces significant spatio-temporal uncertainties into power grids, while Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology offers critical flexibility through bidirectional power flow. However, integrating large-scale EVs into the Optimal Power Flow framework presents substantial challenges due to computational bottlenecks arising from solver complexity and coupled spatio-temporal constraints. Existing Reinforcement Learning (RL) methods often struggle to balance strict constraint satisfaction with scalability in highly dynamic EV fleet environments. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a Hierarchical Policy for Constrained Reinforcement Learning (HPC-RL) framework for spatially and temporally coupled V2G scheduling. The framework adopts a two-layer architecture: the upper level utilizes a RL algorithm based on the Generalized Reduced Gradient method to strictly enforce spatial grid-level hard constraints; the lower level implements a novel dynamic boundary strategy to compute real-time feasible charging power bounds for individual EVs, thereby ensuring the satisfaction of temporal charging demands. This integrated design not only enables the simultaneous handling of spatially and temporally coupled constraints during the RL optimization process but also significantly enhances generalization capabilities for large-scale fleets through hierarchical decoupling. Extensive experiments on IEEE 14, 30, and modified 141-bus systems demonstrate that HPC-RL outperforms Model Predictive Control and state-of-the-art safe RL baselines across all metrics. The proposed method achieves near-optimal scheduling strategies and drastically reduces online computation time in large-scale scenarios from hours to minutes, while maintaining a near-zero constraint violation rate and nearly 100\% charging demand satisfaction.
