arXiv:2608. 12677v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Detecting infection-related behavioral changes in mosquitoes from video data is challenging because mosquitoes are small, move rapidly and irregularly, and are affected by environmental factors such as background, lighting, and shadows, which can make reliable feature extraction difficult.
arXiv:2608. 11582v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Identifying dengue virus-infected mosquitoes from control mosquitoes is a major challenge in analyzing mosquito locomotion behavior due to the small size and complexity of the video background.
arXiv:2607. 09876v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatically retrieving videos from large camera-trap datasets remains challenging.
VESSI is a Vision‑Language Model (VLM) framework that enhances automated video surveillance by converting salient visual features into textual descriptions for prompt‑driven interrogation. The authors evaluate four state‑of‑the‑art VLMs and introduce the Composite Model Utility Score (CMUS) to assess performance on largely unlabeled datasets. Results show that the best model flags relevant activity in over 66% of videos while cutting review time by more than 85%, and the CMUS ordering aligns with manual false‑positive rates, supporting its operational use.
arXiv:2607. 16324v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Malaria diagnosis in endemic regions depends on species-level identification of Plasmodium parasites in thick blood smears, but deep learning detectors classify detections without providing morphological evidence for their predictions, limiting the ability of microscopists to audit those predictions at the case level.

arXiv:2608. 03112v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models excel at image and video understanding but suffer from high inference latency due to the need to process thousands of tokens per image, limiting their deployment on resource-constrained edge devices and in real-time surveillance applications.

TAME is a CLIP‑based framework for Text‑Video Retrieval that incorporates temporal modeling through three key innovations: sparse Mixture‑of‑Experts layers with frame‑consistent routing, Frame‑Temporal tokens that aggregate cross‑frame information, and a Cross‑Temporal Interaction and Aggregation module for refining frame‑wise similarities. These components enable the model to capture both local visual patterns and long‑range temporal dependencies, leading to consistent performance gains over CLIP‑based baselines on multiple TVR benchmarks, including a 4.0 R@1 improvement on MSR‑VTT. The code is publicly available on GitHub.
arXiv:2508. 17117v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing plant-disease datasets target classification and detection, leaving vision-language models unable to support interactive, reasoning-based diagnosis.
AgriScope is a unified pixel‑grounded multimodal framework designed for agricultural image understanding. It supports image‑level, region‑level, and pixel‑level tasks such as grounded caption generation, referring expression segmentation, and multi‑turn multimodal interaction. The authors also introduce AgriGround, a large‑scale dataset with over 500K images and 11M instruction‑following samples, created via an automatic annotation pipeline that combines caption generation, phrase‑level grounding, segmentation mask creation, and instruction synthesis.
