MER-R1: Multimodal Emotion Reasoning via Slow-Fast Thinking Synergy

arXiv:2606. 27652v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We find that explicit reasoning does not necessarily translate into better multimodal emotion recognition (MER) accuracy, even though it makes predictions more interpretable.

NormAct: A Benchmark for Hidden Social Norm Compliance in Embodied Planning

arXiv:2606. 27826v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed as embodied planners in egocentric environments, where task success requires not only achieving instructed goals but also acting in socially appropriate ways.

hia-gat: A Heterogeneous Interaction-Aware Graph Attention Network For Frame-Level Traffic Conflict Risk Prediction On Freeways

arXiv:2606. 27577v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper formulates frame-level freeway risk assessment as a multi-agent scene graph-level binary classification problem, where each video or trajectory frame is labeled risky if any TTC- or PET-based conflict violates a specified severity threshold.

StableMotion: One-Step Motion Estimation with Diffusion Prior

arXiv:2505. 06668v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present StableMotion, a novel framework that leverages geometric and content priors from pretrained large-scale image diffusion models for motion estimation in single-image rectification tasks such as Stitched Image Rectangling (SIR) and Rolling Shutter Correction (RSC).

Uncertainty-Aware Reward Discounting for Mitigating Reward Hacking

arXiv:2604. 26360v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) systems face a compounding alignment challenge: not only are learned reward models uncertain about unseen state-action pairs, but the human preference annotations they are trained on are themselves inconsistent, context-dependent, and noisy.
