Researchers present Pointer-CAD, an LLM-based framework that addresses fundamental limitations in command sequence-based CAD generation by enabling explicit geometric entity selection through pointer mechanisms. The approach reduces quantization errors and supports complex operations like chamfering and filleting that prior methods cannot handle.

Researchers have introduced STAR (Separators for AutoRegressive pretraining), a method that extends Vision Mamba's input sequence length by 4x through strategic separator insertion between images. The STAR-B model achieved 83.5% accuracy on ImageNet-1k, demonstrating improved long-range dependency modeling in vision tasks.
