Single-Stream Multi-Feature Fusion with Temporal Robustness for Gait Emotion Recognition

The paper introduces SV-GCN, a single-stream multi-feature fusion framework for 3D skeleton-based gait emotion recognition that incorporates temporal invariance. It uses intra-frame relative motion features to remove frame-rate sensitivity and embeds heterogeneous cues at shallow layers for early fusion, avoiding multi-stream complexity. A global mask-guided valid-frame spatio-temporal graph convolution module further enhances robustness to variable-length sequences and differing frame rates, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance on the E‑Gait dataset and strong generalization across sequence lengths.

Occluded Gait Recognition with Mixture of Experts: An Action Detection Perspective

The paper introduces GaitMoE, an action‑detection based mixture‑of‑experts framework for occluded gait recognition, leveraging temporal and action experts to infer missing body parts from adjacent frames and gait cycles. It also presents a new Occluded Gait database (OccGait) with diverse occlusion scenarios and annotations, and demonstrates superior performance on OccGait, OccCASIA‑B, Gait3D, and GREW datasets.

Enhancing Multimodal Emotion Recognition via Multi-Feature Encoding and Attention-Based Fusion

The paper introduces a multimodal emotion recognition framework that combines audio and visual feature extraction with an attention-based fusion strategy. Audio features include Wav2Vec2 embeddings, MFCCs, and statistical acoustic descriptors, fused via a BiLSTM, while video features are extracted using a ResNet50-BiLSTM architecture. A multi-head attention mechanism fuses these modalities, and experiments on MELD and IEMOCAP show significant accuracy and robustness gains, especially in unbalanced data settings.

Skeleton-based Zero-Shot Spatio-Temporal Action Localization via Weakly-Supervised Pretraining

The paper introduces Skeleton-Language feature Pooling Switching, a weakly‑supervised vision‑language pretraining strategy for skeleton‑based zero‑shot spatio‑temporal action localization. It replaces video‑level pooling with instance‑level feature computation during inference, enabling the model to estimate unseen actions without costly annotations. Additionally, Scene‑Mixed Discriminative Contrastive Learning is proposed to separate actions at the instance level within mixed scenes using a MIL framework, and experiments on four public datasets confirm the method’s effectiveness.

MTF-Net: Multi-Modal Temporal Feature Fusion Network for Pedestrian Intention Prediction

MTF‑Net is a Multi‑Modal Temporal Feature Fusion Network that jointly models kinematic, appearance, and contextual cues for pedestrian intention prediction. It fuses four modalities—bounding‑box dynamics, human pose keypoints, local context, and scene‑level semantics—within a recurrent framework enhanced by gated linear units (GLUs) and an attention‑guided fusion head. Evaluations on the PIE and JAAD benchmarks show that MTF‑Net outperforms recent transformer‑ and graph‑based models, achieving up to 0.95 AUC on PIE and 0.94 AUC on JAAD while maintaining real‑time performance.

EquiFusion: Kinematics-Agnostic Human Motion Prediction via Equivariant Latent Diffusion

arXiv:2607. 10984v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing Stochastic 3D Human Motion Prediction models are fundamentally constrained by hard-coding the skeleton kinematics, severely limiting generalization, preventing cross-dataset training, and requiring complex data retargeting.
