PoseBridge: Bridging the Skeletonization Gap for Zero-Shot Skeleton-Based Action Recognition

Zero-shot skeleton-based action recognition (ZSSAR) is typically treated as a skeleton-text alignment problem: encode joint-coordinate sequences, align them with language, and classify unseen actions. We argue that this alignment is often too late. Skeletons are not complete action observations, but compressed outputs of human pose estimation (HPE); by the time alignment begins, human-object interactions and pose-relative visual cues may no longer be explicit. We call this upstream semantic loss. To address it, we propose PoseBridge, an HPE-aware ZSSAR framework that bridges intermediate HPE representations to skeleton-text alignment. Rather than adding an RGB action branch or object detector, PoseBridge extracts pose-anchored semantic cues from the same HPE process that produces skeletons, then transfers them through skeleton-conditioned bridging and semantic prototype adaptation. Across NTU-RGB+D 60/120, PKU-MMD, and Kinetics-200/400, PoseBridge improves ZSSAR performance under the evaluated protocols. On the Kinetics-200/400 PURLS benchmark, which contains in-the-wild videos with diverse scenes and action contexts, PoseBridge shows the clearest separation, improving the strongest compared baseline by 13.3-17.4 points across all eight splits. Our code will be publicly released.

RelAgent: LLM Agents as Data Scientists for Relational Learning

Relational learning is a challenging problem that has motivated a wide range of approaches, including graph-based models (e.g., graph neural networks, graph transformers), tabular methods (e.g., tabular foundation models), and sequence-based approaches (e.g., large language models), each with its own advantages and limitations. We propose RelAgent, an LLM-based autonomous data scientist for relational learning, which operates in two phases. In the search phase, an LLM agent uses database, validation, and evaluation workspace tools to construct SQL feature programs and select a predictive model. In the inference phase, the resulting program is executed without further LLM calls. The final predictor consists of SQL queries and a classical model, enabling fast, deterministic, and intrinsically interpretable predictions: features are human-readable queries, and predictions depend only on the resulting query-defined feature map, enabling scalable deployment using standard database systems.

Equivariant Hypergraph Neural Networks

Many problems in computer vision and machine learning can be cast as learning on hypergraphs that represent higher-order relations. Recent approaches for hypergraph learning extend graph neural networks based on message passing, which is simple yet fundamentally limited in modeling long-range dependencies and expressive power. On the other hand, tensor-based equivariant neural networks enjoy maximal expressiveness, but their application has been limited in hypergraphs due to heavy computation and strict assumptions on fixed-order hyperedges. We resolve these problems and present Equivariant Hypergraph Neural Network (EHNN), the first attempt to realize maximally expressive equivariant layers for general hypergraph learning. We also present two practical realizations of our framework based on hypernetworks (EHNN-MLP) and self-attention (EHNN-Transformer), which are easy to implement and theoretically more expressive than most message passing approaches. We demonstrate their capability in a range of hypergraph learning problems, including synthetic k-edge identification, semi-supervised classification, and visual keypoint matching, and report improved performances over strong message passing baselines. Our implementation is available at https://github.com/jw9730/ehnn.

Transformers Generalize DeepSets and Can be Extended to Graphs and Hypergraphs

We present a generalization of Transformers to any-order permutation invariant data (sets, graphs, and hypergraphs). We begin by observing that Transformers generalize DeepSets, or first-order (set-input) permutation invariant MLPs. Then, based on recently characterized higher-order invariant MLPs, we extend the concept of self-attention to higher orders and propose higher-order Transformers for order-$k$ data ($k=2$ for graphs and $k>2$ for hypergraphs). Unfortunately, higher-order Transformers turn out to have prohibitive complexity $\mathcal{O}(n^{2k})$ to the number of input nodes $n$. To address this problem, we present sparse higher-order Transformers that have quadratic complexity to the number of input hyperedges, and further adopt the kernel attention approach to reduce the complexity to linear. In particular, we show that the sparse second-order Transformers with kernel attention are theoretically more expressive than message passing operations while having an asymptotically identical complexity. Our models achieve significant performance improvement over invariant MLPs and message-passing graph neural networks in large-scale graph regression and set-to-(hyper)graph prediction tasks. Our implementation is available at https://github.com/jw9730/hot.
