HumanCentric-Scenes-AI: A Human-Curated Multimodal Dataset of AI-Generated Human-Centric Scenes Across Surveillance, Occupational Portraits, AI-Edited Images, and Short-Form Video

HumanCentric-Scenes-AI is a human‑curated dataset of 296 AI‑generated stimuli depicting people in four contexts: 85 CCTV‑style images, 128 occupational portraits (balanced male/female pairs across 64 jobs), 27 AI‑edited real photographs, and 56 short videos. Each stimulus is accompanied by its generation prompt and metadata, and the dataset includes analyses of gender distribution, edit‑region size versus detection difficulty, image‑quality metrics, and subject‑category coverage. The collection is designed for human‑perception studies, AI‑detection calibration, and bias analysis of generative models.

Dataset Biases and Shortcut Learning in Motion-Based AI-Generated Video Detection

The paper examines four leading motion‑based AI‑generated video detectors and finds that three of them suffer from preprocessing and sampling biases that inflate their reported performance. These detectors rely heavily on motion patterns—specifically, the lower inter‑frame movement typical of synthetic videos—so their accuracy drops to near random when tested on datasets lacking this bias or after simple spatial augmentations. In contrast, a frequency‑based detector remains robust across all datasets, indicating that frequency‑domain methods may generalize better for detecting AI‑generated videos.

Auteur: Language-Driven Cinematographic Framing for Human-Centric Video Generation

Auteur is a language‑driven method that generates human‑centric camera framing for generative video models. It treats shots as framings relative to an actor, encoding shot size, angle, and composition as functions of human pose and motion, and uses a domain‑specific language that converts to standard 6‑DoF camera parameters. A fine‑tuned multimodal large language model acts as a virtual director, mapping natural language descriptions and coarse human motion to sparse DSL keyframes that are interpolated into continuous camera trajectories for video generation.

An Evaluation Framework for Generating Multi-View Images of a Person in a Scene

The paper introduces a framework for generating multi‑view images of a person within a natural scene, addressing the scarcity of paired multi‑view datasets for human subjects. It evaluates existing diffusion‑based image‑editing models and finds they often hallucinate head‑turn angles, leading to inconsistent backgrounds. To overcome this, the authors propose the Head Scene Rotation Difference (HSRD) metric, which separates camera movement from head pose changes and enables reliable assessment of 3D spatial parallax for constructing high‑quality synthetic datasets.

AVAtt: A Free-Viewing Eye-Tracking Dataset and Benchmark for Visual Attention on Paintings

AVAtt is a free‑viewing eye‑tracking dataset comprising Images{} paintings from sixteen art movements and five centuries, with Scanpaths{} scanpaths and Fixations{} fixations collected from Participants{} participants. The dataset provides individual scanpaths, fixation timing, eye‑screen distance, fixation and saliency maps, temporal saliency videos, and rich art metadata. A benchmark of classic and deep saliency models shows significant room for improvement, and 44 scanpath‑similarity measures—including a new language‑free image‑encoder family—are ranked.

Gender Bias in Vision-Language In-Context Learning

The paper investigates how in‑context learning (ICL) in large vision‑language models (LVLMs) can amplify gender bias. Using the VL‑BICLE framework, the authors show that gendered ICL demonstrations shift model bias toward the demonstrated gender, especially in tasks involving gendered language such as image captioning and pronoun prediction. They find that similarity‑based retrieval does not mitigate this bias and that replacing real images with synthetic ones from stable diffusion reduces bias without hurting caption quality.
