Computer vision seeks to extract semantic and geometric information from images and videos, serving as the perceptual foundation for intelligent systems such as robots and autonomous vehicles. Over the past decade, deep learning has driven remarkable progress in the field, advancing capabilities from 2D recognition to 3D reconstruction. However, the current purely data-driven paradigm faces fundamental challenges, including data inefficiency, curse of high dimensionality, and limited understanding of visual entities beyond individual objects...
