VertFound: Synergizing Semantic and Spatial Understanding for Fine-Grained Vertebrae Classification via Foundation Models

Published in MICCAI 2024, 2024

A framework that merges semantic information from CLIP and spatial features from SAM for fine-grained vertebrae classification, with a vertebral positioning with cross-model synergy module and Wasserstein loss.

HiVA: Self-Organized Hierarchical Variable Agent via Goal-Driven Semantic-Topological Evolution

Published in AAAI 2025, 2025

A multi-agent framework that models agentic workflows as self-organized graphs and co-evolves agent semantics and collaboration topology via the Semantic-Topological Evolution (STEV) algorithm.

Self-Improving World Models via Asymmetric Forward-Inverse Consistency

Published in ICLR 2026 Workshop on Recursive Self-Improvement (Spotlight), 2026

A self-improving framework (World Action Verifier) that decomposes action-conditioned prediction into state plausibility and action reachability, exploiting forward–inverse asymmetry for verification and data-efficient world-model learning.
