Improving Temporal Action Segmentation via Constraint-Aware Decoding

Temporal action segmentation (TAS) divides untrimmed videos into labeled action segments. While fully supervised methods have advanced the field, challenges such as action variability, ambiguous boundaries, and high annotation costs remain, especially in new or low-resource domains. Grammar-based approaches improve segmentation with structural priors but rely on complex parsing limiting scalability. In this work, we propose a lightweight, constraint-based refinement framework that enhances TAS predictions by integrating statistical structural priors such as transition confidence, action boundary sets, and per-class duration, that can be directly extracted from annotated data. These constraints are integrated into a modified Viterbi decoding algorithm, allowing inference-time refinement without retraining or added model complexity. Our approach improves both fully and semi-supervised TAS models by correcting structural prediction errors while maintaining high efficiency.

Instruction-Evidence Contrastive Dual-Stream Decoding for Grounded Vision-Language Reasoning

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) exhibit strong performance in instruction following and open-ended vision-language reasoning, yet they frequently generate fluent outputs that are weakly grounded in visual evidence. Prior works have shown that instruction prompting further worsens this issue by amplifying language priors, especially when the visual signal is uncertain or ambiguous. To address this challenge, we propose a decoding framework that explicitly balances linguistic informativeness and visual faithfulness during generation. Our method, Instruction-Evidence Contrastive Dual-Stream Decoding (IECD$^2$), maintains two parallel probability distribution of tokens at each decoding step: an instruction-driven stream that promotes expressive and informative responses, and an evidence-driven stream that enforces strict grounding in the image. These two streams are adaptively fused using a symmetric KL-based contrastive gate, which suppresses tokens favored by language priors but unsupported by visual evidence, while preserving them when both distributions agree. We evaluate IECD$^2$ on multiple datasets spanning various generative vision-language reasoning tasks such as captioning and visual question answering on multiple datasets such as, POPE, MME, VQAv2, AMBER, and MSCOCO. IECD$^2$ demonstrates consistent improvements in task accuracy and reasoning performance with substantial reduction in hallucination compared to state-of-the-art decoding approaches.

Defining Traffic States using Spatio-temporal Traffic Graphs

Intersections are one of the main sources of congestion and hence, it is important to understand traffic behavior at intersections. Particularly, in developing countries with high vehicle density, mixed traffic type, and lane-less driving behavior, it is difficult to distinguish between congested and normal traffic behavior. In this work, we propose a way to understand the traffic state of smaller spatial regions at intersections using traffic graphs. The way these traffic graphs evolve over time reveals different traffic states - a) a congestion is forming (clumping), the congestion is dispersing (unclumping), or c) the traffic is flowing normally (neutral). We train a spatio-temporal deep network to identify these changes. Also, we introduce a large dataset called EyeonTraffic (EoT) containing 3 hours of aerial videos collected at 3 busy intersections in Ahmedabad, India. Our experiments on the EoT dataset show that the traffic graphs can help in correctly identifying congestion-prone behavior in different spatial regions of an intersection.
