MeshFlow brings high-quality mesh with interactive speed. It's time to make mesh generation flow! Arxiv: arxiv.org/abs/2606.23489 Web: qiisun.github.io/MeshFlow/ Code: github.com/qiisun/MeshFlow
Excited to share MeshFlow — a new approach that can generate meshes with a fraction of seconds, while achieving state-of-the-art generation quality. Secret sources? Instead of autoregressive models, use equivariant flow-matching!

Resist the flattening!
Everyone's asking what humans are still worth in the age of AI. To me, it's the part of us that AI keeps flattening - our individuality. Yet I feel I'm constantly being sold a choice: extend myself with AI, or preserving my unique thoughts, tastes and opinions. What if I didn't have to choose? There is a future where we get the magic of feeling totally understood by the technology that serves us, while staying ourselves. In this future, the model of us -- our "second selves" -- must be owned by us. That's the future we want to live in, and one we're building at Aesona. The open, top-of-mind questions right now: 1. What's the right representation of a person and how should it evolve over time? 2. How do we measure individual-level alignment? How should you interact with the model to close gaps in what it doesn't yet know about you? 3. What should your second self refuse to say about you? How should the user create the right "disclosure policy" and how should it be enforced? If this sounds like a future you want to build, my DMs are open!

We should all be asking who — or what — owns our minds. A model that understands what makes you you can be incredibly enabling and deeply dangerous. That's why we think a "second self" — a model whose only job is to understand you and make your life better — must be owned by you. A faithful second self, in both senses, is the foundation of personal AI. Our founding thesis, below.

🚀 Excited to kick off the Graphics × Science Workshop at #SIGGRAPH2026! Computer graphics is becoming a foundational tool for scientific discovery. From computational imaging and molecular modeling to physical simulation, robotics, manufacturing, and AI, graphics is helping us model, understand, and design the physical world. Looking forward to an exciting program featuring 3 keynote speakers and 58 highlighted papers. 🔗 graphics4science.github.io/2… #AI4Science #ComputerGraphics #ScientificComputing #Simulation #NVIDIA #NVIDIAOmniverse #NVIDIAAI

Excited to share 𝐄𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐫-𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐍𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬 (𝐄𝐍𝐒), a PDE framework that recurrently corrects its own prediction by reading the PDE residual field rather than minimizing it! Website: neuralsolver.github.io/

There are three reasons why it's called "Functional Attention." 1⃣We make functions, instead of tokens, as first-class citizens for attention module. 2⃣It was inspired by the geometry processing concepts of functional maps. 3⃣It works!
What if attention wasn't about matching tokens, but operating in function space? Glad to share our #ICML2026 paper: 📄 Functional Attention: From Pairwise Affinities to Functional Correspondences w/ @Jiefang_Xiao @GaoMaolin @stevenygd Daniel Cremers 📄 xjffff.github.io/funcattn/

Combining the benefits of RL and SFT with on-policy distillation, a promising approach for training small models for domain performance and continual learning.
Our latest post explores on-policy distillation, a training approach that unites the error-correcting relevance of RL with the reward density of SFT. When training it for math reasoning and as an internal chat assistant, we find that on-policy distillation can outperform other approaches for a fraction of the cost. thinkingmachines.ai/blog/on-…

We've released all code and models for FlashDepth! It produces depth maps from a 2k, streaming video in real-time. This was a really fun course project inspired by discussions with @mohsaied and @stevenygd and we look forward to presenting it at #ICCV2025. GitHub: github.com/Eyeline-Research/… Project page: eyeline-research.github.io/F…
The latest research paper from @eyelinestudios, FlashDepth, has been accepted to the International Conference on Computer Vision (#ICCV2025). Our model produces accurate and high-resolution depth maps from streaming videos in real time and is completely built on open-source models and data. We hope it will be applied to various online applications, like robotics and on-set video composition. It has already been integrated into a few internal tools for visual effects and real-time depth estimation, segmentation, and matting tasks. Congrats to the team: @gene_ch0u, @wenqi_xian, @stevenygd, @mohsaied, @Bharathharihar3, @Jimantha, @realNingYu, @debfx ! All models and code have been released: GitHub: github.com/Eyeline-Research/… Project page: eyeline-research.github.io/F… Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2504.07093

For those at CVPR, Aditya will be presenting this poster tomorrow at 10:30 (Exhibit hall D, Poster #34). Come hear about why neural field derivatives are noisy, and how we resurrect image processing ideas for neural fields!
📢 Excited to share our latest work on computing accurate differential operators for hybrid neural fields (like Instant NGP)! 🔗: justachetan.github.io/hnf-de… 🧵👇🏻 (1/n)

Really impressive work on real-time video generation! I’m a fan of the principle of closing the train-test gap!
Real-time video generation is finally real — without sacrificing quality. Introducing Self-Forcing, a new paradigm for training autoregressive diffusion models. The key to high quality? Simulate the inference process during training by unrolling transformers with KV caching.

Most video models struggle to feel like real worlds. They forget what’s just out of view, slow down as videos get longer, or breaks causality. We think State Space Models are a natural fit for models with: 🧠 long-term memory across hundreds of frames ⚡ constant-speed generation, even for long rollouts ⏩ fully causal dynamics, fit for real-time interaction
Long-Context State-Space Video World Models "we propose a novel architecture leveraging state-space models (SSMs) to extend temporal memory without compromising computational efficiency. "
