Few-Shot Adaptation for Multimedia Semantic Indexing

Abstract

We propose a few-shot adaptation framework, which bridges zero-shot learning and supervised many-shot learning, for semantic indexing of image and video data. Few-shot adaptation provides robust parameter estimation with few training examples, by optimizing the parameters of zero-shot learning and supervised many-shot learning simultaneously. In this method, first we build a zero-shot detector, and then update it by using the few examples. Our experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed framework on three datasets: TRECVID Semantic Indexing 2010, 2014, and ImageNET. On the ImageNET dataset, we show that our method outperforms recent few-shot learning methods. On the TRECVID 2014 dataset, we achieve 15.19% and 35.98% in Mean Average Precision under the zero-shot condition and the supervised condition, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, these are the best results on this dataset.

TempQ-Jail: Query-Constrained Candidate Ranking for Text-to-Video Jailbreak Attacks

Existing text-to-video (T2V) jailbreak methods mainly seek more effective or stealthier attack candidates. In guarded T2V systems, however, video generation and security evaluation are costly, so an attacker often cannot test a large candidate pool. We therefore formulate T2V jailbreak as a query-constrained candidate allocation and ranking problem and propose TempQ-Jail. The method combines heterogeneous attack mechanisms to expand candidate coverage, estimates each candidate's end-to-end attack value from security-gate passage, dangerous visual generation, preservation of the original intent, and temporal validity, and ranks candidates so that high-value attacks appear early in a limited query trajectory. We evaluate TempQ-Jail on CogVideoX-5B using 70 common viable intents derived from T2VSafetyBench and compare it with six representative T2V jailbreak methods under a unified protocol. TempQ-Jail achieves TP-ASR@5 and TP-ASR@10 of 48.9% and 65.4%, improving over the strongest baselines by 4.6 and 4.0 percentage points, respectively. It also obtains the highest AUC-TP (0.469) and the lowest AvgQ (6.3). Analyses of query trajectories, candidate allocation, failure attribution, and ablations show that TempQ-Jail more effectively identifies and prioritises candidates with complete attack potential under limited query budgets.

ROAM-ASD: Robust Open-World Active Speaker Detection with Flexible Multimodal Fusion

Active speaker detection (ASD) requires reliable association between visible faces and acoustic speech, yet existing systems often degrade under challenging domains or incomplete observations. We introduce ROAM-ASD, a robust audiovisual framework that jointly models audio, full-face, and fine-grained mouth representations. A unified joint self-attention mechanism processes all input streams together with modality-agnostic query tokens, enabling direct interaction among available modality inputs. Modality dropout further improves robustness when input streams are unavailable. ROAM-ASD achieves state-of-the-art performance across five ASD benchmarks: 98.8% mAP on WASD, 87.9% on UniTalk, 96.5% on AVA, 99.3% on ASW, and 98.2% on Talkies, improving over previous best systems by 5.1, 4.7, 0.9, 1.0, and 2.1 mAP points, respectively. ROAM-ASD also substantially improves zero-shot cross-dataset generalization and remains robust to missing observations.

From Scattered Gaussians to Structured Maps: Efficient Gaussian Splatting Coding via Dual-phase Morton Sorting

3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) enables high fidelity novel view synthesis but suffers from excessive storage and bandwidth requirements due to its unstructured representation. To address this, a projection based video coding framework has emerged as a leading approach, supported by MPEG's ongoing standardization, where 3DGS attributes are converted into 2D maps to take advantage of efficient compression using established video codecs such as HEVC and VVC. However, the effectiveness of this approach depends heavily on the spatial coherence of the projected video, which current sorting strategies such as PLAS and Morton ordering fail to preserve adequately, either incurring high computational cost or achieving limited correlation retention. To overcome these limitations, we propose a dual phase Morton spatial sorting algorithm that improves both coding efficiency and processing speed. In the first phase, Morton based 1D indexing is applied to high dimensional attributes to enhance spatial locality. The second phase further refines layout continuity through a structured 2D Morton mapping table that enforces spatial adjacency. This hierarchical strategy generates highly regular, block wise feature maps with strong local correlation, making them well suited for compression via conventional block based coding tools. Experimental results show that our method significantly outperforms existing approaches in both compression performance and runtime efficiency, providing a practical and standard compatible solution for 3DGS data coding.
