Recursive Code World Models: Building Complex Worlds through Recursive Scene Programs

RCWM reconstructs complex 3D worlds as executable code from a single image using recursive scene programs with global-local-global solver recursion.

The paper introduces Recursive Code World Models, coupling a Recursive Scene Program representation with a recursive construction solver for image-to-3D-world reconstruction. Each solver call establishes the whole scene, recursively reconstructs unresolved parts, and revisits the whole to refine composition, while a vision-language coding agent compares reference images with scene renders to guide refinement. RCWM outperforms prior code-based image-to-scene reconstruction methods, and ablations show deeper recursive calls improve fine-scale reconstruction.

Evaluating Time-Series Foundation Models and Multimodal Dietary Context for CGM Forecasting

Study finds zero-shot time-series foundation models underperform on CGM forecasting; fine-tuned Chronos-Bolt cuts RMSE up to 18.4% and dietary context adds signal.

The paper evaluates time-series foundation models for continuous glucose monitoring forecasting across eight public datasets covering Type 1 diabetes, Type 2 diabetes, and non-diabetes populations. Under a unified protocol, zero-shot foundation models did not consistently outperform baselines like Elastic Net and PatchTST, but lightweight fine-tuning did, with fine-tuned Chronos-Bolt reducing RMSE by 6.5%-18.4% in the T1D cohort and 8.6%-18.2% in the non-diabetes/T2D cohort. A residual-based fusion framework adding dietary context from CGMacros reduced overall RMSE by about 3% and postprandial RMSE by about 15% versus CGM-only baselines.

GoDeep: Annotation-Free Open-Vocabulary 3D Scene Understanding via Language-Space Lifting

GoDeep achieves annotation-free open-vocabulary 3D segmentation by grounding structured image descriptions in language-only embeddings, outperforming CLIP-based lifting on out-of-vocabulary objects.

GoDeep uses a vision-language model purely as a translator, producing structured entity-level image descriptions that are grounded, projected, and aggregated in a general-purpose language-only embedding space, with no 3D training corpus or dedicated 3D encoder required. On ScanNet++ the pipeline is competitive with strong annotation-free baselines, and on a cultural-heritage benchmark a systematic vocabulary correction reverses initial CLIP-based rankings. Language-space embeddings separate genuinely out-of-vocabulary objects more sharply, localize them within scenes, and keep all predictions explainable as discrete text.

Enoki: Efficient Multi-Level Hallucination Detection

Researchers introduce Enoki, an open information extraction framework unifying claim-level and span-level hallucination detection in LLMs at lower inference cost.

Enoki extracts text-anchored relational facts, verifies them against evidence, and projects unsupported facts back onto hallucinated spans, so claim-level verification and span-level localization share one representation without separate alignment. It supports LLM-based, encoder-based, and rule-based extraction regimes to balance accuracy against inference cost. Experiments show it stays competitive with strong claim-level systems while using fewer resources and outperforms them on fine-grained span- and entity-level localization. The authors also release EnokiQA, a dual-granularity dataset with aligned claim-level verification and span-level localization annotations.
