Are You the A-hole? A Fair, Multi-Perspective Ethical Reasoning Framework

Standard methods for aggregating natural language judgments, such as majority voting, often fail to produce logically consistent results when applied to high-conflict domains, treating differing opinions as noise. We propose a neuro-symbolic aggregation framework that formalizes conflict resolution through Weighted Maximum Satisfiability (MaxSAT). Our pipeline utilizes a language model to map unstructured natural language explanations into interpretable logical predicates and confidence weights. These components are then encoded as soft constraints within the Z3 solver, transforming the aggregation problem into an optimization task that seeks the maximum consistency across conflicting testimony. Using the Reddit r/AmItheAsshole forum as a case study in large-scale moral disagreement, our system generates logically coherent verdicts that diverge from popularity-based labels 62% of the time, corroborated by an 86% agreement rate with independent human evaluators. This study demonstrates the efficacy of coupling neural semantic extraction with formal solvers to enforce logical soundness and explainability in the aggregation of noisy human reasoning.

Explore-And-Match: Bridging Proposal-Based and Proposal-Free With Transformer for Sentence Grounding in Videos

Natural Language Video Grounding (NLVG) aims to localize time segments in an untrimmed video according to sentence queries. In this work, we present a new paradigm named Explore-And-Match for NLVG that seamlessly unifies the strengths of two streams of NLVG methods: proposal-free and proposal-based; the former explores the search space to find time segments directly, and the latter matches the predefined time segments with ground truths. To achieve this, we formulate NLVG as a set prediction problem and design an end-to-end trainable Language Video Transformer (LVTR) that can enjoy two favorable properties, which are rich contextualization power and parallel decoding. We train LVTR with two losses. First, temporal localization loss allows time segments of all queries to regress targets (explore). Second, set guidance loss couples every query with their respective target (match). To our surprise, we found that training schedule shows divide-and-conquer-like pattern: time segments are first diversified regardless of the target, then coupled with each target, and fine-tuned to the target again. Moreover, LVTR is highly efficient and effective: it infers faster than previous baselines (by 2X or more) and sets competitive results on two NLVG benchmarks (ActivityCaptions and Charades-STA). Codes are available at https://github.com/sangminwoo/Explore-And-Match.

3D Fourier transformation light scattering for reconstructing extend angled resolved light scattering of individual particles

We represent three-dimensional Fourier transform light scattering, a method to reconstruct angle-resolved light scattering (ARLS) with extended angle-range from individual spherical objects. To overcome the angle limitation determined by the physical numerical aperture of an optical system, the optical light fields scattered from a sample are measured with various illumination angles, and then synthesized onto the Ewald Sphere corresponding to the normal illumination in Fourier space by rotating the scattered light signals. The method extends the angle range of the ARLS spectra beyond 90 degree, beyond the limit of forward optical measurements. Extended scattered light fields in 3D and corresponding ARLS spectra of individual microscopic polystyrene beads, and protein droplets are represented.

Hi-CMD: Hierarchical Cross-Modality Disentanglement for Visible-Infrared Person Re-Identification

Visible-infrared person re-identification (VI-ReID) is an important task in night-time surveillance applications, since visible cameras are difficult to capture valid appearance information under poor illumination conditions. Compared to traditional person re-identification that handles only the intra-modality discrepancy, VI-ReID suffers from additional cross-modality discrepancy caused by different types of imaging systems. To reduce both intra- and cross-modality discrepancies, we propose a Hierarchical Cross-Modality Disentanglement (Hi-CMD) method, which automatically disentangles ID-discriminative factors and ID-excluded factors from visible-thermal images. We only use ID-discriminative factors for robust cross-modality matching without ID-excluded factors such as pose or illumination. To implement our approach, we introduce an ID-preserving person image generation network and a hierarchical feature learning module. Our generation network learns the disentangled representation by generating a new cross-modality image with different poses and illuminations while preserving a person's identity. At the same time, the feature learning module enables our model to explicitly extract the common ID-discriminative characteristic between visible-infrared images. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on two VI-ReID datasets. The source code is available at: https://github.com/bismex/HiCMD.

Learning to Align Multi-Camera Domains using Part-Aware Clustering for Unsupervised Video Person Re-Identification

Most video person re-identification (re-ID) methods are mainly based on supervised learning, which requires cross-camera ID labeling. Since the cost of labeling increases dramatically as the number of cameras increases, it is difficult to apply the re-identification algorithm to a large camera network. In this paper, we address the scalability issue by presenting deep representation learning without ID information across multiple cameras. Technically, we train neural networks to generate both ID-discriminative and camera-invariant features. To achieve the ID discrimination ability of the embedding features, we maximize feature distances between different person IDs within a camera by using a metric learning approach. At the same time, considering each camera as a different domain, we apply adversarial learning across multiple camera domains for generating camera-invariant features. We also propose a part-aware adaptation module, which effectively performs multi-camera domain invariant feature learning in different spatial regions. We carry out comprehensive experiments on three public re-ID datasets (i.e., PRID-2011, iLIDS-VID, and MARS). Our method outperforms state-of-the-art methods by a large margin of about 20\% in terms of rank-1 accuracy on the large-scale MARS dataset.

SRG: Snippet Relatedness-based Temporal Action Proposal Generator

Recent temporal action proposal generation approaches have suggested integrating segment- and snippet score-based methodologies to produce proposals with high recall and accurate boundaries. In this paper, different from such a hybrid strategy, we focus on the potential of the snippet score-based approach. Specifically, we propose a new snippet score-based method, named Snippet Relatedness-based Generator (SRG), with a novel concept of "snippet relatedness". Snippet relatedness represents which snippets are related to a specific action instance. To effectively learn this snippet relatedness, we present "pyramid non-local operations" for locally and globally capturing long-range dependencies among snippets. By employing these components, SRG first produces a 2D relatedness score map that enables the generation of various temporal intervals reliably covering most action instances with high overlap. Then, SRG evaluates the action confidence scores of these temporal intervals and refines their boundaries to obtain temporal action proposals. On THUMOS-14 and ActivityNet-1.3 datasets, SRG outperforms state-of-the-art methods for temporal action proposal generation. Furthermore, compared to competing proposal generators, SRG leads to significant improvements in temporal action detection.
