Abstract

Data in mobile cloud environment are mainly transmitted via wireless noisy channels, which may result in transmission errors with a high probability due to its unreliable connectivity. For video transmission, unreliable connectivity may cause significant degradation of the content. Improving or keeping video quality over lossy channel is therefore a very important research topic. Error concealment with data hiding (ECDH) is an effective way to conceal the errors introduced by channels. It can reduce error propagation between neighbor blocks/frames comparing with the methods exploiting temporal/spatial correlations. The existing video ECDH methods often embed the motion vectors (MVs) into the specific locations. Nevertheless, specific embedding locations cannot resist against random errors. To compensate the unreliable connectivity in mobile cloud environment, in this paper, we present a video ECDH scheme using 3D reversible data hiding (RDH), in which each MV is repeated multiple times, and the repeated MVs are embedded into different macroblocks (MBs) randomly. Though the multiple embedding requires more embedding space, satisfactory trade-off between the introduced distortion and the reconstructed video quality can be achieved by tuning the repeating times of the MVs. For random embedding, the lost probability of the MVs decreases rapidly, resulting in better error concealment performance. Experimental results show that the PSNR values gain about 5dB at least comparing with the existing ECDH methods. Meanwhile, the proposed method improves the video quality significantly.

Adaptive Hierarchical Representation Alliance for Multimodal Learning

Multimodal models often align language, vision, and audio in a single final-layer latent space, implicitly assuming that task-relevant evidence emerges at the same semantic depth across modalities. Using layer-wise CKA analysis, we observe that this assumption leads to semantic granularity mismatch: textual cues usually require deeper contextual abstraction, whereas visual and acoustic cues often provide discriminative perceptual evidence in shallow or middle layers. This mismatch can flatten fine-grained modality-private cues and reduce reliability under noisy, imbalanced, or missing inputs. To address this, we proposed Adaptive Hierarchical Representation Alliance (AHRA), a hierarchical shared--private expert framework. AHRA factorizes each modality into shared and private streams across semantic levels, regularizes them with shared alignment and private decorrelation, routes shared information through a cross-modal expert, and enhances task-relevant private tokens with modality-specific experts guided by a sparsity-controlled soft-gating mechanism (foreground exam). A hierarchical co-fusion module then performs intra-level expert coordination and inter-level semantic selection. Experiments on six benchmarks across image-text classification, multimodal intent recognition, and trimodal sentiment analysis show that AHRA consistently improves over strong baselines and remains robust under noisy and missing-modality settings.

The Missing Temporal Link: Temporal Context Routing for Script-Driven Audio-Video Generation

Joint audio-video generation models have made substantial progress in visual quality and audio-visual synchronization. However, they still provide limited control over when shot transitions occur and dialogue is spoken. This limitation constrains their application in script-driven content creation, where timing errors can undermine narrative coherence and the viewing experience. Current joint generators align video and audio representations on a shared temporal axis, yet the precise timing of shots and dialogue specified in a structured prompt is encoded only in the prompt's text representation and remains unaligned with the temporal coordinates of either modality. Consequently, video and audio may remain synchronized with each other while both fail to follow the script timeline. This mismatch motivates us to extend temporal alignment beyond video and audio to include the structured script. We therefore introduce Temporal Context Routing (TCR), which maps the script timing onto the shared temporal axis of video and audio generation and routes each prompt's guidance to the corresponding positions in both modalities. Compared with the baseline on 200 test scripts, TCR reduces Shot Boundary MAE by 96%, from 1.11 s to 0.042 s, and raises Dialogue Acc@0.5 s from 28.3% to 84.1%. TCR achieves these improvements while maintaining visual quality and audio-visual synchronization comparable to those of the baselines. A user study further shows that participants prefer TCR on all five evaluated dimensions.

AnimateCanvas: Learning Implicit Motion Planning from Composable Kinematic Cues

Professional character animation requires both natural motion and precise, versatile control. For example, creators often define the timing of a specified action, control the motion range of the character's arm swing, or specify the route the character walks through--effectively placing various kinematic cues on a motion canvas. This motivates us to propose AnimateCanvas, a model that supports cue-conditioned implicit motion planning to faithfully and coherently connect all cues, dense or sparse, full or partial, into one full-body motion sequence. Specifically, AnimateCanvas represents heterogeneous kinematic cues on a shared motion canvas, where position and rotation values are specified across body joints and time. A shared flow-matching model generates motion conditioned on this canvas, with optional language and input motion; cue imputation keeps the specified canvas values fixed in both training and sampling. To learn coherent completion across different cue sets, we train with a compositional cue sampler that varies the timing of cue application, the positions or rotations specified, and how they are combined. Together, these designs enable a single generator to integrate heterogeneous kinematic cues into coherent full-body actions, giving creators fine-grained control over selected frames, joints, and position or rotation channels. We evaluate this planning ability on temporal, root, and body-part cues--alone and combined--as well as language-guided editing, and naturally extend it to sequential generation and motion repair. AnimateCanvas achieves state-of-the-art results in temporal completion, spatial control, sequential generation, language-guided editing, and motion repair, while retaining strong text-to-motion capability.
