LiDAR data generation has emerged as a promising solution to the high cost and limited scalability of real-world LiDAR sensing. Recent diffusion and rectified flow models have demonstrated strong capabilities in synthesizing realistic 3D point clouds; however, their iterative sampling procedures result in significant inference overhead. To address this, we focus on efficient few-step LiDAR generation for both unconditional and multi-modal conditional settings. Specifically, we propose an adaptive piecewise distillation strategy tailored for rectified flow-based LiDAR generation models, where the teacher model’s flow trajectory is adaptively segmented into consecutive intervals, and the student is trained only at the start of each interval to directly predict the velocity toward its endpoint. By sequentially sampling at the start timestep of each interval, our method enables fast few-step generation. Moreover, instead of uniform partitioning, we introduce an adaptive timestep selection strategy that chooses interval boundaries with minimal initial error, thereby reducing the complexity of distillation. Experimental results show that our method achieves comparable or superior performance to state-of-the-art methods in both unconditional and multi-modal conditional LiDAR generation, using only four sampling steps.

ADAPT: Attentive Self-Distillation and Dual-Decoder Prediction Fusion for Continual Panoptic Segmentation

Panoptic segmentation, which unifies semantic and instance segmentation into a single task, has witnessed considerable success on predefined tasks. However, traditional methods tend to struggle with catastrophic forgetting and poor generalization when learning from a continuous stream of new tasks. While continual learning aims to mitigate these challenges, our study reveals that existing continual panoptic segmentation (CPS) methods often suffer from efficiency or scalability issues. To address these limitations, we propose an efficient adaptation framework that incorporates attentive self-distillation and dual-decoder prediction fusion to efficiently preserve prior knowledge while facilitating model generalization. Specifically, we freeze the majority of model weights, enabling a shared forward pass between the teacher and student models during distillation. Attentive self-distillation then adaptively distills useful knowledge from the old classes without being distracted from non-object regions, which effectively enhances knowledge retention. Additionally, query-level fusion (QLF) is devised to seamlessly integrate the output of the dual decoders without incurring scale inconsistency. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on ADE20K and COCO benchmarks. Code is available at https://github.com/Ze-Yang/ADAPT.

3D Pose Transfer with Correspondence Learning and Mesh Refinement

3D pose transfer is one of the most challenging 3D generation tasks. It aims to transfer the pose of a source mesh to a target mesh and keep the identity (e. g. , body shape) of the target mesh. Some previous works require key point annotations to build reliable correspondence between the source and target meshes, while other methods do not consider any shape correspondence between sources and targets, which leads to limited generation quality. In this work, we propose a correspondence-refinement network to achieve the 3D pose transfer for both human and animal meshes. The correspondence between source and target meshes is first established by solving an optimal transport problem. Then, we warp the source mesh according to the dense correspondence and obtain a coarse warped mesh. The warped mesh will be better refined with our proposed Elastic Instance Normalization, which is a conditional normalization layer and can help to generate high-quality meshes. Extensive experimental results show that the proposed architecture can effectively transfer the poses from source to target meshes and produce better results with satisfied visual performance than state-of-the-art methods.
