IMPACT-HOI: Supervisory Control for Onset-Anchored Partial HOI Event Construction

We present IMPACT-HOI, a mixed-initiative framework for annotating egocentric procedural video by constructing structured event graphs for Human-Object Interactions (HOI), motivated by the need for high-quality structured supervision for learning robot manipulation from human demonstration. IMPACT-HOI frames this task as the incremental resolution of a partially specified, onset-anchored event state. A trust-calibrated controller selects among direct queries, human-confirmed suggestions, and conservative completions based on empirical annotator behavior and evidence quality. A risk-bounded execution protocol, utilizing atomic rollback, ensures that human-confirmed decisions are preserved against conflicting automated updates. A user study with 9 participants shows a 13.5% reduction in manual annotation actions, a 46.67% event match rate, and zero confirmed-field violations under the studied protocol. The code will be made publicly available at https://github.com/541741106/IMPACT_HOI.

IMPACT-Scribe: Interactive Temporal Action Segmentation with Boundary Scribbles and Query Planning

Dense temporal annotation of procedural activity videos is vital for action understanding and embodied intelligence but remains labor-intensive due to reactive tools. Each correction is treated as an isolated edit, limiting reuse of information on annotator uncertainty and model reliability. We introduce IMPACT-Scribe, a correction-driven framework for dense labeling that uses each correction to improve future human-machine collaboration. IMPACT-Scribe combines uncertainty-aware boundary scribble supervision, local proposal modeling, cost-aware query planning, structured propagation, and correction-driven adaptation. Experiments and a human study show that this closed-loop design improves labeling quality per effort, enhances boundary accuracy, and fosters better human-machine interaction over time. The code will be made publicly available at https://github.com/BanzQians/IMPACT_AS.

TriALS: Triphasic-Aided Liver Lesion Segmentation Benchmark in Non-Contrast CT

Automated segmentation of liver lesions on non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) is clinically important but fundamentally challenging, particularly in low-resource settings across Africa and Asia where contrast agents are frequently unavailable. Progress has been limited by the absence of annotated NCCT benchmarks. Here we describe the TriALS challenge for automated liver lesion segmentation under contrast-limited conditions, supported by a multi-centre dataset of 150 cases with four-phase CT acquisitions (600 volumes) from Egyptian and Chinese institutions. Algorithms were evaluated on 70 cases from three institutions, including an independent external cohort. The top-performing method achieved a mean venous-phase Dice of 0.754, consistent with human-level performance, yet dropped to 0.57 on NCCT. On external validation, the leading method outperformed off-the-shelf models by up to 28% in Dice on NCCT. Algorithm performance was most strongly predicted by training data scale and pre-training strategy. A cross-year comparison exposed a persistent perceptual barrier on NCCT that scaling pre-training alone cannot overcome. Data, annotations, and code are available at https://github.com/xmed-lab/TriALS.

A Comparative Analysis of Decision-Level Fusion for Multimodal Driver Behaviour Understanding

Visual recognition inside the vehicle cabin leads to safer driving and more intuitive human-vehicle interaction but such systems face substantial obstacles as they need to capture different granularities of driver behaviour while dealing with highly limited body visibility and changing illumination. Multimodal recognition mitigates a number of such issues: prediction outcomes of different sensors complement each other due to different modality-specific strengths and weaknesses. While several late fusion methods have been considered in previously published frameworks, they constantly feature different architecture backbones and building blocks making it very hard to isolate the role of the chosen late fusion strategy itself. This paper presents an empirical evaluation of different paradigms for decision-level late fusion in video-based driver observation. We compare seven different mechanisms for joining the results of single-modal classifiers which have been both popular, (e.g. score averaging) and not yet considered (e.g. rank-level fusion) in the context of driver observation evaluating them based on different criteria and benchmark settings. This is the first systematic study of strategies for fusing outcomes of multimodal predictors inside the vehicles, conducted with the goal to provide guidance for fusion scheme selection.
