arXiv:2512. 00691v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Gait patterns play a critical role in human identification and healthcare analytics, yet current progress remains constrained by small, narrowly designed models that fail to scale or generalize.
The paper introduces Composed Gait Retrieval (CoGR), a task that retrieves a target gait sequence using a reference sequence and a natural language modification query. To support this, the authors create the first gait-language datasets—Language‑Augmented CCPG and Language‑Augmented CASIA‑B—via an automated annotation pipeline powered by large vision‑language models. They propose ComposeGait, an identity‑anchored composition framework with a Part‑aware Identity Adapter that injects identity tokens into a shared Q‑Former, achieving state‑of‑the‑art retrieval performance on both benchmarks.

MMGait is a large‑scale multi‑sensor benchmark that aligns visible, infrared, depth, LiDAR, and radar observations at the sequence level, enabling evaluation of single‑modal, cross‑modal, and multi‑modal gait recognition. The study shows that modality rankings shift with probe conditions, cross‑modal alignment remains challenging, and fusion can yield complementary gains. To address the scalability issue of training separate experts, the authors propose Omni‑Modal Gait Recognition and its implementation, OmniGait++, which unifies all recognition settings within a shared identity space using modality‑specific front ends, a shared encoder, and an anchor‑guided fusion module. whyItMatters":"MMGait provides a common testbed for heterogeneous gait sensing and demonstrates that unified recognition across varying modality availability is feasible, offering a scalable alternative to task‑specific experts."

VKnowU is a benchmark that tests multimodal large language models (MLLMs) on their grasp of visual knowledge—intuitive, human-like understanding of physical and social principles in videos. The benchmark contains 1,680 questions across 1,249 videos, covering eight core types of visual knowledge, and shows that current state‑of‑the‑art MLLMs still lag behind human performance, especially on world‑centric tasks. To address this gap, the authors release VKnowQA and VideoKnow+, a baseline model that incorporates visual knowledge via a See‑Think‑Answer framework and reinforcement learning, improving performance on VKnowU and related datasets.
