Adaptive Physical-Facial Representation Fusion via Subject-Invariant Cross-Modal Prompt Tuning for Video-Based Emotion Recognition

Emotion recognition from facial videos enables non-contact inference of human emotional states. Although facial expressions are widely used cues, they cannot fully reflect intrinsic affective states. Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) provides complementary physiological information, but it is highly susceptible to noise and inter-subject variability, limiting generalization to unseen individuals. Existing multimodal methods combine facial and rPPG features, yet their fusion strategies often disrupt pretrained facial representations and lack explicit mechanisms to suppress subject-specific variations. To address these issues, we propose a subject-invariant cross-modal prompt-tuning framework for video-based emotion recognition. Specifically, rPPG waveforms are transformed into noise-robust time-frequency representations (TFRs), from which modality-complementary prompts are generated to modulate facial tokens within a frozen Vision Transformer (ViT). This design enables effective cross-modal interaction while preserving the generalizable facial representations learned by the pretrained backbone. In addition, we introduce a decoupled shared-specific adapter (DSSA) into each ViT layer to explicitly separate subject-shared and subject-specific components, thereby improving cross-subject generalization. Experiments on the MAHNOB-HCI and DEAP benchmarks demonstrate that the proposed method consistently outperforms strong baselines in both recognition accuracy and generalization ability, highlighting its effectiveness for video-based emotion recognition.

LASSA Architecture-Based Autonomous Fault-Tolerant Control of Unmanned Underwater Vehicles

Unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) operate persistently in communication-constrained environments, thus requiring high-level autonomous fault-tolerant control under faulty operating conditions. Existing approaches rely heavily on predefined hard-coded rules and struggle to achieve effective fault-tolerant control against unforeseen faults. Although large language models (LLMs) possess powerful cognitive and reasoning capabilities, their inherent hallucinations remain a major obstacle to their application in UUV control systems. This paper proposes an intelligent control method based on the LASSA (LLM-based Agent with Solver, Sensor and Actuator) architecture. Within this architecture, an LLM identifies unknown faults and accomplishes task replanning via autonomous reasoning without hard-coded rules; the intelligent agent undertakes perception, scheduling and decision evaluation; the solver verifies physical boundary feasibility constraints prior to command transmission to the actuators. This architecture suppresses physically infeasible LLM hallucinations and ensures interpretable, verifiable decision-making. Moreover, it enables fast-slow dual closed-loop collaborative control, where the slow loop undertakes high-level dynamic decision-making and the fast loop guarantees high-frequency real-time control, simultaneously balancing decision intelligence and control timeliness. Lake experiments under normal and lower-rudder-fault conditions show that the framework detects trajectory tracking abnormalities, replans the route by adjusting the turning radius from 4m to 12m and reducing speed from 2kn to 1kn, passes all three solver constraints on the first invocation, and guides the UUV to complete the full mission; under normal conditions no false fault alarms are raised throughout the run.

PROVE: A Perceptual RemOVal cohErence Benchmark for Visual Media

Evaluating object removal in images and videos remains challenging because the task is inherently one-to-many, yet existing metrics frequently disagree with human perception. Full-reference metrics reward copy-paste behaviors over genuine erasure; no-reference metrics suffer from systematic biases such as favoring blurry results; and global temporal metrics are insensitive to localized artifacts within edited regions. To address these limitations, we propose RC (Removal Coherence), a pair of perception-aligned metrics: RC-S, which measures spatial coherence via sliding-window feature comparison between masked and background regions, and RC-T, which measures temporal consistency via distribution tracking within shared restored regions across adjacent frames. To validate RC and support community benchmarking, we further introduce PROVE-Bench, a two-tier real-world benchmark comprising PROVE-M, an 80-video paired dataset with motion augmentation, and PROVE-H, a 100-video challenging subset without ground truth. Together, RC metrics and PROVE-Bench form the PROVE (Perceptual RemOVal cohErence) evaluation framework for visual media. Experiments across diverse image and video benchmarks demonstrate that RC achieves substantially stronger alignment with human judgments than existing evaluation protocols. The code for RC metrics and PROVE-Bench are publicly available at: https://github.com/xiaomi-research/prove/.

SplitFT: An Adaptive Federated Split Learning System For LLMs Fine-Tuning

Federated Split Learning has been identified as an efficient approach to address the computational resource constraints of clients in classical federated learning, while guaranteeing data privacy for distributed model training across data owners. However, it faces some critical challenges when such a training strategy meets large language models (LLMs) for fine-tuning. Such challenges include setting the cutlayer adaptively across different clients to address the data and device heterogeneity issues, which affect the system performance significantly. In addition, efficiently reducing the communication overhead during the fine-tuning procedure is also another challenge. No work tries to address these challenges. To bridge this gap, we propose SplitTF, an adaptive federated split learning system for LLMs fine-tuning. SplitFT enables different clients to set different cut layers according to their computation resources and trained model performance. SplitFT also proposes to reduce the LoRA rank in cutlayer to reduce the communication overhead. In addition to simulating the heterogeneous data in real-world applications for our proposed split federated learning system, we propose a length-based Dirichlet approach to divide the training data into different clients. Extensive experimental results show that our proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art approach for fine-tuning time efficiency and model performance based on various popular benchmarks.
