Bipolar disorder poses significant challenges due to
disruptive manic episodes often missed by traditional
clinical monitoring. This research proposes a multimodal AI
framework that integrates keystroke dynamics and circadian
rhythm analysis via smartphones to predict manic episodes 3
to 7 days prior to clinical onset. Combining fine-grained
cognitive-motor behavioral features from typing patterns
with physiological markers of circadian disruption, this
approach leverages temporal convolutional and LSTM networks
enhanced with attention mechanisms for robust prediction.
The model will be validated through longitudinal monitoring
to assess predictive accuracy and reliability. Such early
detection can enable timely interventions, reducing
personal and societal burdens while advancing digital
mental health methodologies rooted in precision psychiatry.

Arbitrary-Oriented Object Detection (AOOD) has found broad applications in embodied intelligence, autonomous driving, and satellite remote sensing. However, current AOOD frameworks face challenges in ineffective feature extraction and orientation regression inaccuracy. Inspired by Hilbert curve's intrinsic locality-preserving property, we propose a flexible \textbf{H}ilbert curve-\textbf{E}ncoded \textbf{R}otation-Equivariant \textbf{O}riented Object \textbf{Det}ector, termed \textbf{HERO-Det}. Our key innovations include: (i) a novel Hilbert curve traversal convolution paradigm with a dimensionality reduction scheme, which employs locality-preserving spatial filling curves for feature transformation, (ii) a Hilbert pyramid transformer enabling hierarchical construction of multi-scale feature sequences through space-folding operations, as well as (iii) an orientation-adaptive prediction head that decouples rotation-equivariant regression features from invariant classification cues to resolve orientation regression dilemmas in two-stage detectors. Extensive experiments show HERO-Det achieves state-of-the-art performance on AOOD benchmarks, with mAP of 79.56\%, 90.64\%, 90.10\%, and 80.47\% on DOTA, HRSC2016, SSDD, and HRSID, respectively. Consistent performance gains in cross-task validation further demonstrate the versatility of our method to diverse vision tasks, such as medical image segmentation and 3D object detection. Code is available at https://github.com/Qian-CV/HERO-Det.

3D LiDAR scene completion from point clouds is a fundamental component of perception systems in autonomous vehicles. Previous methods have predominantly employed diffusion models for high‑fidelity reconstruction. However, their multi‑step iterative sampling incurs significant computational overhead, limiting real‐time applicability. To address this, we propose LiNeXt—a lightweight, non‐diffusion network optimized for rapid and accurate point cloud completion. Specifically, LiNeXt first applies the Noise‑to‑Coarse (N2C) Module to denoise the input noisy point cloud in a single pass, thereby obviating the multi‑step iterative sampling of diffusion‑based methods. The Refine Module then takes the coarse point cloud and its intermediate features from N2C Module to perform more precise refinement, further enhancing structural completeness. Furthermore, we observe that LiDAR point clouds exhibit a distance‑dependent spatial distribution—densely sampled at proximal ranges and sparsely sampled at distal ranges. Accordingly, we propose the Distance‑aware Selected Repeat strategy to generate a more uniformly distributed noisy point cloud. On the SemanticKITTI dataset, LiNeXt achieves a 199.8$\times$ speedup in inference, reduces Chamfer Distance by 50.7\%, and uses only 6.1\% of the parameters compared with LiDiff. These results demonstrate the superior efficiency and effectiveness of LiNeXt for real-time scene completion.

LiNeXt: Revisiting LiDAR Completion with Efficient Non-Diffusion Architectures

Movie dubbing seeks to synthesize speech from a given script using a specific voice, while ensuring accurate lip synchronization and emotion-prosody alignment with the character’s visual performance. However, existing alignment approaches based on visual features face two key limitations: (1) they rely on complex, handcrafted visual preprocessing pipelines, including facial landmark detection and feature extraction; and (2) they generalize poorly to unseen visual domains, often resulting in degraded alignment and dubbing quality. To address these issues, we propose InstructDubber, a novel instruction-based alignment dubbing method for both robust in-domain and zero-shot movie dubbing. Specifically, we first feed the video, script, and corresponding prompts into a multimodal large language model to generate natural language dubbing instructions regarding the speaking rate and emotion state depicted in the video, which is robust to visual domain variations. Second, we design an instructed duration distilling module to mine discriminative duration cues from speaking rate instructions to predict lip-aligned phoneme-level pronunciation duration. Third, for emotion-prosody alignment, we devise an instructed emotion calibrating module, which fine-tunes an LLM-based instruction analyzer using ground truth dubbing emotion as supervision and predicts prosody based on the calibrated emotion analysis. Finally, the predicted duration and prosody, together with the script, are fed into the audio decoder to generate video-aligned dubbing. Extensive experiments on three major benchmarks demonstrate that InstructDubber outperforms state‑of‑the‑art approaches across both in‑domain and zero‑shot scenarios.

InstructDubber: Instruction-based Alignment for Zero-shot Movie Dubbing

Typical detection-free methods for image-to-point cloud registration leverage transformer-based architectures to aggregate cross-modal features and establish correspondences. However, they often struggle under challenging conditions, where noise disrupts similarity computation and leads to incorrect correspondences. Moreover, without dedicated designs, it remains difficult to effectively select informative and correlated representations across modalities, thereby limiting the robustness and accuracy of registration.
To address these challenges, we propose a novel cross-modal registration framework composed of two key modules: the Iterative Agents Selection (IAS) module and the Reliable Agents Interaction (RAI) module. IAS enhances structural feature awareness with phase maps and employs reinforcement learning principles to efficiently select reliable agents. RAI then leverages these selected agents to guide cross-modal interactions, effectively reducing mismatches and improving overall robustness.
Extensive experiments on the RGB-D Scenes v2 and 7-Scenes benchmarks demonstrate that our method consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance.

Adaptive Agent Selection and Interaction Network for Image-to-Point Cloud Registration

Domain adaptive point cloud completion (DA PCC) aims to narrow the geometric and semantic discrepancies between the labeled source and unlabeled target domains. Existing methods either suffer from limited receptive fields or quadratic complexity due to using CNNs or vision Transformers. In this paper, we present the first work that studies the adaptability of state space models (SSMs) in DA PCC and find that directly applying SSMs to DA PCC will encounter several challenges: directly serializing 3D point clouds into 1D sequences often disrupts the spatial topology and local geometric features of the target domain. Besides, the overlook of designs in the learning domain-agnostic representations hinders the adaptation performance. To address these issues, we propose a novel framework, DAPointMamba for DA PCC, that exhibits strong adaptability across domains and has the advantages of global receptive fields and efficient linear complexity. In particular, Cross-Domain Patch-Level Scanning introduces patch-level geometric correspondences, enabling effective local alignment. Cross-Domain Spatial SSM Alignment further strengthens spatial consistency by modulating patch features based on cross-domain similarity, effectively mitigating fine-grained structural discrepancies. Cross-Domain Channel SSM Alignment actively addresses global semantic gaps by interleaving and aligning feature channels. Extensive experiments on both synthetic and real-world benchmarks demonstrate that our DAPointMamba consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods with less computational complexity and inference latency.

Few-shot action recognition (FSAR) has recently made notable progress through set matching and efficient adaptation of large-scale pre-trained models. However, two key limitations persist. First, existing set matching metrics typically rely on cosine similarity to measure inter-frame linear dependencies and then perform matching with only instance-level information, thus failing to capture more complex patterns such as nonlinear relationships and overlooking task-specific cues. Second, for efficient adaptation of CLIP to FSAR, recent work performing fine-tuning via skip-fusion layers (which we refer to as side layers) has significantly reduced memory cost. However, the newly introduced side layers are often difficult to optimize under limited data conditions. To address these limitations, we propose TS-FSAR, a framework comprising three components: (1) a visual Ladder Side Network (LSN) for efficient CLIP fine-tuning; (2) a metric called Task-Specific Distance Correlation Matching (TS-DCM), which uses $\alpha$-distance correlation to model both linear and nonlinear inter-frame dependencies and leverages a task prototype to enable task-specific matching; and (3) a Guiding LSN with Adapted CLIP (GLAC) module, which regularizes LSN using the adapted frozen CLIP to improve training for better $\alpha$-distance correlation estimation under limited supervision. Extensive experiments on five widely-used benchmarks demonstrate that our TS-FSAR yields superior performance compared to prior state-of-the-arts.

Task-Specific Distance Correlation Matching for Few-Shot Action Recognition

Generating interaction-centric videos, such as those depicting humans or robots interacting with objects, is crucial for embodied intelligence, as they provide rich and diverse visual priors for robot learning, manipulation policy training, and affordance reasoning. However, existing methods often struggle to model such complex and dynamic interactions. While recent studies show that masks can serve as effective control signals and enhance generation quality, obtaining dense and precise mask annotations remains a major challenge for real-world use. To overcome this limitation, we introduce Mask2IV, a novel framework specifically designed for interaction-centric video generation. It adopts a decoupled two-stage pipeline that first predicts plausible motion trajectories for both actor and object, then generates a video conditioned on these trajectories. This design eliminates the need for dense mask inputs from users while preserving the flexibility to manipulate the interaction process. Furthermore, Mask2IV supports versatile and intuitive control, allowing users to specify the target object of interaction and guide the motion trajectory through action descriptions or spatial position cues. To support systematic training and evaluation, we curate two benchmarks covering diverse action and object categories across both human-object interaction and robotic manipulation scenarios. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves superior visual realism and controllability compared to existing baselines.

Mask2IV: Interaction-Centric Video Generation via Mask Trajectories

Accurate segmentation of aortic vascular structures is critical for diagnosing and treating cardiovascular diseases. Traditional Transformer-based models have shown promise in this domain by capturing long-range dependencies between vascular features. 
However, their reliance on fixed-size rectangular patches often influences the integrity of complex vascular structures, leading to suboptimal segmentation accuracy. 
To address this challenge, we propose the adaptive Morph-Patch Transformer (MPT), a novel architecture specifically designed for aortic vascular segmentation. 
Specifically, MPT introduces an adaptive patch partitioning strategy that dynamically generates morphology-aware patches aligned with complex vascular structures.
This strategy can preserve semantic integrity of complex vascular structures within individual patches.
Moreover, a Semantic Clustering Attention (SCA) method is proposed to dynamically aggregate features from various patches with similar semantic characteristics.
This method enhances the model's capability to segment vessels of varying sizes, preserving the integrity of vascular structures.
Extensive experiments on three open-source dataset(AVT, AortaSeg24 and TBAD) demonstrate that MPT achieves state-of-the-art performance, with improvements in segmenting intricate vascular structures. 
Our code and datasets are detailed described in the appendix.

Adaptive Morph-Patch Transformer for Aortic Vessel Segmentation

With the growing prevalence of HDR-capable cinema venues such as Cinity LED theaters, there is an increasing demand to convert existing Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) films into High Dynamic Range (HDR) formats for theatrical presentation. However, existing SDR-to-HDR conversion methods are primarily tailored for consumer-grade content such as television and therefore fall short of the stringent requirements of professional cinematic material. To bridge this gap, we present HDRMovie7K, the first large-scale, lossless dataset of cinematic SDR-HDR frame pairs sourced from professional Digital Cinema Distribution Master (DCDM) workflows. Based on this foundation, we introduce HDRMovieformer, a transformer-based framework featuring a Luminance Estimator module for luminance guidance, a Luminance-Guided Multi-Head Self-Attention to focus on critical fine-detail recovery, and a Chroma Refiner for color accuracy, optimized with a novel Wide Color Gamut Loss. To further evaluate our model in online streaming media scenarios, we introduce HDRMovie1K, a dataset curated from publicly available HDR film clips. Extensive experiments on both HDRMovie7K and HDRMovie1K demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance. The source code and pre-trained models will be available.

HDRMovieformer: A Transformer Framework and Benchmark for Cinematic SDR-to-HDR Conversion

With the rapid advancement of intelligent education, Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT) has attracted increasing attention by integrating educational psychology with deep learning technologies. Unlike traditional paper-and-pencil testing, CAT aims to efficiently and accurately assess ex- aminee abilities by adaptively selecting the most suitable items during the assessment process. However, its real-time and sequential nature presents limitations in practical scenarios, particularly in large-scale assessments where interaction costs are high, or in sensitive domains such as psychological evaluations where minimizing noise and interfer- ence is essential. These challenges constrain the applicability of conventional CAT methods in time-sensitive or resource- constrained environments. To this end, we first introduce a novel task called one-shot adaptive testing (OAT), which aims to select a fixed set of optimal items for each test-taker in a one-time selection. Meanwhile, we propose PEOAT, a Personalization-guided Evolutionary question assembly framework for One-hot Adaptive Testing from the perspec- tive of combinatorial optimization. Specifically, we began by designing a personalization-aware initialization strategy that integrates differences between examinee ability and ex- ercise difficulty, using multi-strategy sampling to construct a diverse and informative initial population. Building on this, we proposed a cognitive-enhanced evolutionary framework incorporating schema-preserving crossover and cognitively guided mutation to enable efficient exploration through infor- mative signals. To maintain diversity without compromising fitness, we further introduced a diversity-aware environmen- tal selection mechanism. The effectiveness of PEOAT is val- idated through extensive experiments on two datasets, com- plemented by case studies that uncovered valuable insights.
