Relaxing Faithfulness with Intervention-Only Causal Discovery
Causal discovery algorithms learn a network that describes the causal dependencies among random variables. A common workflow involves first utilizing conditional independence properties on observational data to determine partially directed causal relationships, then applying interventions to orient the unknown causal directions. A critical assumption for the first step is faithfulness: a requirement that causally linked variables exhibit statistical dependence. Many natural systems include buffering and stabilizing pathways that cancel out to achieve systemic robustness. This cancellation of p
FoundationGeo: Learning Spatial Pixel-Wise Fields for Monocular Metric Geometry
We present FoundationGeo, a two-stage framework that explicitly bridges relative and metric prediction via spatial calibration and principled data design. Stage 1 learns a high-fidelity, affine-invariant geometry model by initializing with DINOv3 and training on a curated 10.2M-sample multi-domain corpus with complementary local-detail supervision, yielding sharp boundaries and strong cross-domain generalization. Stage 2 moves beyond global scaling by introducing lightweight pixel-wise calibration fields for metric estimation: a scale field for spatially varying metric alignment and a ray-dire
