Query-Conditioned Evidential Keyframe Sampling for MLLM-Based Long-Form Video Understanding
arXiv:2604.01002v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown strong performance on video question answering, but their application to long-form videos is constrained by limited context length and computational cost, making keyframe sampling essential. Existing approaches typically…
High Probability Complexity Bounds of Trust-Region Stochastic Sequential Quadratic Programming with Heavy-Tailed Noise
arXiv:2503.19091v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we consider nonlinear optimization problems with a stochastic objective and deterministic equality constraints. We propose a Trust-Region Stochastic Sequential Quadratic Programming (TR-SSQP) method and establish its high-probability iteration complexity bounds for identifying…
Epileptic Seizure Detection in Separate Frequency Bands Using Feature Analysis and Graph Convolutional Neural Network (GCN) from Electroencephalogram (EEG) Signals
arXiv:2604.00163v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Epileptic seizures are neurological disorders characterized by abnormal and excessive electrical activity in the brain, resulting in recurrent seizure events. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are widely used for seizure diagnosis due to their ability to capture…
Unsupervised 4D Flow MRI Velocity Enhancement and Unwrapping Using Divergence-Free Neural Networks
arXiv:2604.00205v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work introduces an unsupervised Divergence and Aliasing-Free neural network (DAF-FlowNet) for 4D Flow Magnetic Resonance Imaging (4D Flow MRI) that jointly enhances noisy velocity fields and corrects phase wrapping artifacts. DAF-FlowNet parameterizes velocities as…
Diagnosing Neural Convergence with Topological Alignment Spectra
arXiv:2411.08687v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Representational similarity in neural networks is inherently scale-dependent, yet widely used metrics such as Centered Kernel Alignment (CKA) and Procrustes analysis provide only global scalar estimates. These scalars often fail to distinguish micro-scale geometric jitter…
TempoControl: Temporal Attention Guidance for Text-to-Video Models
arXiv:2510.02226v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in generative video models have enabled the creation of high-quality videos based on natural language prompts. However, these models frequently lack fine-grained temporal control, meaning they do not allow users to specify when…
Sit-to-Stand Transitions Detection and Duration Measurement Using Smart Lacelock Sensor
arXiv:2604.00175v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Postural stability during movement is fundamental to independent living, fall prevention, and overall health, particularly among older adults who experience age-related declines in balance, muscle strength, and mobility. Among daily functional activities, the Sit-to-Stand (SiSt)…
Lead Zirconate Titanate Reservoir Computing for Classification of Written and Spoken Digits
arXiv:2604.00207v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper we extend our earlier work of (Rietman et al. 2022) presenting an application of physical Reservoir Computing (RC) to the classification of handwritten and spoken digits. We utilize an unpoled cube of…
Exact Graph Learning via Integer Programming
arXiv:2601.20589v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Learning the dependence structure among variables in complex systems is a central problem across medical, natural, and social sciences. These structures can be naturally represented by graphs, and the task of inferring such graphs from…
