While 3D Vision-Language Models (3D VLMs) have demonstrated remarkable spatial reasoning capabilities, they suffer from massive visual token counts that create severe computational bottlenecks during inference. Existing token pruning methods primarily rely on diversity-based selection, discarding similar tokens to maximize dispersion. However, in 3D environments, this approach frequently drops representative prototype tokens in favor of outliers, breaking the multi-view consistencies and geometric structures essential for spatial reasoning. In this paper, we propose a paradigm shift for 3D VLM token pruning: from maximizing diversity to preserving visual evidence coverage. We introduce CoverPrune, a training-free framework that formulates inference-time token pruning as an Optimal Transport (OT) problem. To overcome the intractable combinatorial subset selection inherent in this formulation, we design the Feature-Spatial-Temporal (FST) transport cost and target capacity, along with an efficient Spatial-Guided Greedy Selection (SGS) algorithm to approximate the OT objective. Furthermore, we propose CoverPrune-Lite, an accelerated variant utilizing spatially structured local matching for minimal overhead. Extensive experiments across multiple 3D visual-spatial reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that our methods achieve state-of-the-art token efficiency, maintaining robust reasoning performance even under highly aggressive pruning budgets.

Video object removal must eliminate not only the target object but also its induced effects while maintaining high-fidelity and spatiotemporally coherent restoration. Existing methods mainly learn object-effect correspondences implicitly from predefined effect categories and fixed data distributions, limiting their generalization to complex real-world scenes involving compositional effects, spatially detached or weakly correlated effects, long-tail physical phenomena, and dynamically evolving interactions. We propose EffectLearner, a semantic-reasoning-enhanced framework that combines a VLM-based Object-Effect Reasoner with a DiT-based Video Eraser. Guided by a structured effect-analysis prompt, the Reasoner performs cross-modal reasoning over a target-highlighted video and extracts compact effect-aware context, which guides the Video Eraser toward comprehensive object-effect removal. Motion-aware mask guidance and motion-consistency supervision further improve removal coverage and spatiotemporal stability under object motion and evolving scene dynamics. To fully exploit the framework in challenging real-world scenarios, we further construct EffectWorld, a paired video dataset specifically designed for complex object-induced effects, and introduce a progressive training curriculum that combines common supervision with complex-effect data. On the standard ROSE-Bench, EffectLearner outperforms existing baselines on most metrics and achieves clear advantages on both EffectWorld-Eval and the challenging EffectWorld-Wild, demonstrating its ability to deliver high-quality video object removal in complex real-world scenes.
Large vision-language models (LVLMs) have recently shown strong potential for industrial anomaly detection (IAD) by providing image-level anomaly judgments and interpretable defect reasoning. However, current LVLM-based IAD methods still struggle to produce precise pixel-level anomaly maps from generated language judgments. We aim to achieve precise pixel-level localization while using language as guidance rather than letting it dominate the visual response. Specifically, we propose \textbf{OPD-IAD}, an evidence-privileged dense on-policy self-distillation framework for LVLM-based IAD. OPD-IAD distills privileged defect evidence onto the model's own on-policy judgment trajectory, enabling the final generated judgment to be learned under dense supervision rather than treated only as a textual answer. The resulting judgment serves as a semantic condition for dense anomaly perception. To turn this condition into dense visual evidence, we introduce \textbf{Language-guided Visual Anchoring}, which uses a judgment reforward to re-encode the image and question under the final-judgment condition into semantic anchors and contrasts them with dense visual features through a contrastive heatmap head to generate anomaly maps. The language judgment therefore provides compact semantic guidance, while dense visual features remain the basis for pixel-level scoring, allowing language to guide anomaly localization without letting language quality directly dictate the pixel-level response. Extensive experiments show that OPD-IAD achieves the best overall performance among LVLM-based IAD methods, leading on most image-level, pixel-level, and QA metrics.
