TDADL-IE: A Deep Learning-Driven Cryptographic Architecture for Medical Image Security
The rise of digital medical imaging, like MRI and CT, demands strong encryption to protect patient data in telemedicine and cloud storage. Chaotic systems are popular for image encryption due to their sensitivity and unique characteristics, but existing methods often lack sufficient security. This paper presents the Three-dimensional Diffusion Algorithm and Deep Learning Image Encryption system (TDADL-IE), built on three key elements. First, we propose an enhanced chaotic generator using an LST…

FlexTraj: Image-to-Video Generation with Flexible Point Trajectory Control
We present FlexTraj, a framework for image-to-video generation with flexible point trajectory control. FlexTraj introduces a unified point-based motion representation that encodes each point with a segmentation ID, a temporally consistent trajectory ID, and an optional color channel for appearance cues, enabling both dense and sparse trajectory control. Instead of injecting trajectory conditions into the video generator through token concatenation or ControlNet, FlexTraj employs an efficient se…

A spooky convergence is happening in media.
Everything that is not already television is turning into television.
Whether the starting point is a student directory (Facebook),
radio (podcasts), or
an AI image generator, (Sora)
the end point seems to be the same:
a river of short-form video.

Query-Kontext: An Unified Multimodal Model for Image Generation and Editing
Unified Multimodal Models (UMMs) have demonstrated remarkable performance in text-to-image generation (T2I) and editing (TI2I), whether instantiated as assembled unified frameworks which couple powerful vision-language model (VLM) with diffusion-based generator, or as naive Unified Multimodal Models with an early fusion of understanding and generation modalities. We contend that in current unified frameworks, the crucial capability of multimodal generative reasoning which encompasses instructio…

This is the voice of energy
I am a giant electrical generator
I supply you with light and power
And I enable you to receive speech
Music and image through the ether
I am your servant and lord at the same time
Therefore guard me well
Me, the genius of energy

EvoWorld: Evolving Panoramic World Generation with Explicit 3D Memory
Humans possess a remarkable ability to mentally explore and replay 3D environments they have previously experienced. Inspired by this mental process, we present EvoWorld: a world model that bridges panoramic video generation with evolving 3D memory to enable spatially consistent long-horizon exploration. Given a single panoramic image as input, EvoWorld first generates future video frames by leveraging a video generator with fine-grained view control, then evolves the scene's 3D reconstruction …
