Action Quality Assessment (AQA) aims to objectively evaluate performance quality from action videos. Most existing methods follow a ``one-by-one'' paradigm, training a separate model for each action type.

arXiv:2606. 28696v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Composition is a high-level visual intent that governs where subjects are placed and how a scene is organized, yet current unified multimodal models remain unreliable at fine-grained composition recognition and struggle to turn such intent into controllable generation.

Hand-object interaction (HOI) recognition requires capturing both hand manipulations and object transformations. However, existing video-language models often fall into shortcuts by relying on spurious correlations among hands, objects, or environmental context, rather than reasoning from the appearance and dynamics of hands and objects themselves.
Fine-grained understanding of operating room (OR) activity could enable workflow-aware assistance, yet remains difficult due to clutter, occlusions, and limited sensing. The prevailing approach to model this environment is scene graphs as an interpretable representation of OR interactions.
Compositional Zero-Shot Learning (CZSL) aims to combine known attributes and objects as primitives for recognizing previously unseen attribute-object pairs. Prior works either predict attributes and objects independently, missing their strong contextual dependency, or use unidirectional conditional modeling (e.
