Spatial-Temporal Multi-scale Network for Screen Content Video Quality Enhancement

Different from natural videos, Screen Content Videos (SCVs) are characterized by abrupt motion, scene switches, and high-frequency details such as text and graphics. Conventional video enhancement methods, which rely heavily on temporal continuity, often suffer from performance degradation when processing SCVs due to the disruption of temporal correlations. To address these challenges, we propose the Spatial-Temporal Multi-scale Network (STM-Net), a novel framework specifically tailored for compressed SCV enhancement. Our approach integrates three complementary components: a Prior-Guided Spatio-Temporal Dispatcher (PG-STD) that routes input into three parallel streams to avoid feature contamination, a Bidirectional Temporal Feature Extraction (BTFE) module that adaptively handles abrupt transitions without explicit detection, and a Cascaded Multi-scale Feature Distillation (CMFD) module that preserves critical high-frequency details. Experimental results demonstrate that STM-Net outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both objective metrics and subjective visual quality, providing a robust solution for screen content artifacts.

ADPTNet: Adaptive with Prescriptive Timescales Non-Linear SSM for Sequence Modelling

A central aim of neuromorphic computing is to provide a viable alternative to highly energy-intensive Transformer-based AI. However, efficient alternatives struggle to capture the set of qualities that have secured the Transformer's status as the de facto standard in sequence modelling. Any realistic contender must be data-adaptive, able to capture long-range dependencies, and GPU-parallelisable, but also non-linearly recurrent to enable complex reasoning. Based on evidence suggesting the auditory cortex operates on fixed timescales, this work proposes the ADaptive with Prescriptive Timescales Network (ADPTNet) as a potential solution to achieving all four properties simultaneously. ADPTNet is built around local topological conjugates, obtained by a novel combination of linear attention and Riemannian optimisation, applied to static global dynamics. This enables non-linear yet predictable long-term behaviour. Dynamical systems theory proofs provide theoretical guarantees for the parametric control of ADPTNet's timescales (its Lyapunov spectrum). ADPTNet improves performance on Selective Copying over Hawk, the existing method balancing long-range memory and adaptability, while also improving state tracking over linear SSMs like Mamba. On sequential CIFAR-10, ADPTNet matches linear SSM accuracy and outperforms existing selective models (incl. the Transformer), using fewer parameters. We also introduce a neuromorphic SpikingADPTNet, which achieves a new state-of-the-art accuracy on the Spiking Speech Commands dataset (

83.56\%\pm0.15

). Finally, ADPTNet's constant timescales enable two efficient, Jacobian-free extensions to the DEER parallel simulation algorithm (Conv and Forward DEER) that retain the same average convergence. Conv DEER adds no computational overhead beyond the network's forward pass and enables non-linear RNN parallelisation via iterated convolutions for the first time.

Learning Local Heterogeneity and Cross-Region Context for Large-Scale Traffic Forecasting

Traffic flow forecasting is essential to intelligent transportation systems. Large-scale traffic forecasting requires jointly modeling local spatial dependencies and cross-region context.Spatial dependencies between geographically neighboring nodes are heterogeneous due to differences in road identity and travel direction, while acquiring global information through allpairs node interactions incurs substantial computational costs. Therefore, capturing local heterogeneity while efficiently acquiring long-range context remains an important challenge in largescale traffic forecasting. To address these challenges, we propose LoReST, a Local-Region Spatial Temporal network that models spatial dependencies at two complementary granularities: node neighborhoods and road network regions. Specifically, relation-aware local aggregation captures heterogeneous dependencies within geographic neighborhoods through road and direction specific feature transformations. Cross-region interaction constructs region representations through mean pooling, exchanges long range context via inter-region attention, and broadcasts it back to nodes. By integrating local information aggregation with crossregion interaction, LoReST is able to effectively achieve spatial dependency learning in large-scale road networks. Experiments on four datasets of the LargeST benchmark show average relative reductions of 4.78%, 3.60%, and 5.75% in MAE, RMSE, and MAPE, respectively.

Longitudinal 3D Foundation Modeling for Neoadjuvant Breast Cancer Response Prediction from Serial DCE-MRI

Pathologic complete response (pCR) is an important endpoint in neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for breast cancer, and predicting pCR from imaging during treatment could support treatment response assessment. Many existing imaging-based approaches rely on a single static timepoint, which fails to capture changes that occur during treatment. In this work, we present a longitudinal framework that combines a frozen 3D foundation encoder (Pillar-0) with our Temporal Dynamics Network (TDN) to predict treatment response from serial Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced (DCE) MRI acquired across four clinical timepoints from pre-treatment to pre-surgery. The TDN combines time-aware volumetric embeddings with clinical and treatment data to predict pCR. Evaluated on 982 patients from the combined I-SPY2 and ACRIN-6698 cohort, the proposed model achieves strong performance across all reported metrics when longitudinal 3D imaging is fused with clinical data (test AUROC: 73.6%, balanced accuracy: 69.1%). While clinical variables provide the strongest individual predictive signal, longitudinal 3D imaging contributes complementary information when fused with clinical data, improving pCR prediction.

STS-NET: Spatio-Temporal Stress Network for Self-Supervised Crop Stress Detection using Satellite Image Time Series

Early and accurate detection of crop stress is essential to improve agricultural productivity and ensure global food security. However, collecting a large labeled crop stress dataset is a challenging task. To address this challenge, we introduce a novel spatial-temporal stress network (STS-NET), built on a self-supervised 3D-convolutional autoencoder (3D-CAE), designed to utilize Satellite Image Time Series (SITS) data for crop stress detection. STS-NET exploits four vegetation indices: Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (GNDVI), Red-Edge Chlorophyll Index (RECI) and Normalized Difference Red-Edge Index (NDRE) obtained from high resolution Planetscope imagery to capture spatiotemporal stress patterns. The model is trained on our BSPT (Barnala Spatial-Temporal) dataset and evaluated on a real-world sugarcane dataset collected over a year from a 2.5-acre test plot located in Lakhimpur-Kheri (LK) district in Uttar Pradesh in India. STS-NET achieved a precision of 97. 98% for water stress, 85.08% for nitrogen stress, and 83.47% for combined stress. The results demonstrate the potential of STS-NET in effectively detecting stress in sugarcane crops with minimal reliance on labeled data. Furthermore, STS-NET can serve as a robust feature extractor for simpler models.

ESTANet: Efficient Online Error Detection in Procedural Videos via Prediction Inconsistency

An efficient and accurate system for detecting errors in procedural tasks is crucial for supporting human needs in daily life, as it can provide instant notifications and guide people to correct mistakes. In this work, we study real-time online error detection in procedural videos from a simple but overlooked perspective: the prediction behavior of action detectors themselves. Instead of designing complex architectures or specialized supervision, we observe that action detectors naturally exhibit different prediction characteristics depending on their sensitivity to input dynamics and temporal context. We therefore propose ESTANet (Error-Sensitive and Temporally-vArying Network), a lightweight framework that detects errors by exploiting inconsistencies among action predictions produced by a small set of action detectors. We construct standard and error-sensitive action detectors that behave similarly on correct executions but respond differently when errors occur. Meanwhile, detectors operating with different temporal contexts further amplify prediction inconsistencies when the procedure deviates from the intended sequence. During inference, we detect errors by aggregating mismatches between standard and error-sensitive predictions through majority voting to flag frames that contain errors. Extensive experiments on EgoPER, Assembly-101-O, and EPIC-Tent-O demonstrate that ESTANet achieves state-of-the-art performance in online error detection while maintaining real-time efficiency with a lightweight architecture. Our results highlight that leveraging the intrinsic properties of action detectors can yield a powerful and practical solution for online error detection without increasing architectural design complexity.

Building Change Detection in Earthquake: A Multi-Scale Interaction Network and A Change Detection Dataset

As one of the most destructive natural disasters, earthquakes have struck many countries around the world in recent years, causing serious economic losses. Change detection (CD) can be applied to post-earthquake damage assessment as it can infer destroyed change regions from multi-temporal remote sensing images. Furthermore, the CD with short imaging interval will better satisfy the needs of the emergency rescues after earthquakes. However, the capability of current methods built on deep neural networks is limited because the dataset with short imaging interval is absent. To meet post-disaster immediate relief, we create a CD dataset, Turkey earthquake CD dataset (TUE-CD), for the evaluation of building damage in the short term after an earthquake. Because of the short acquisition interval of the post-event images, the imaging angle is different for different temporal images, which leads to some side-looking problems. To deal with these challenges, we present a multi-scale feature interaction network (MSI-Net) for efficient interaction between bi-temporal features, as well as mitigating the effect of side-looking problems. Specifically, the proposed MSI-Net consists of joint cross-attention (JCA) modules, multi-scale offset calibration (MOC) modules, and feature integration (FeI) modules. The JCA module unifies channel cross-attention and spatial joint attention for sufficient feature interaction. The MOC module further estimates the offsets to align the bi-temporal image with the multi-scale features. Finally, calibrated features and multi-scale features are fused by FeI modules for the prediction of changed areas. Experiments on the WHU-CD, CLCD, and the constructed TUE-CD dataset indicate that the proposed MSI-Net provides better results than considered state-of-the-art CD methods.

Content-Induced Spatial-Spectral Aggregation Network for Change Detection in Remote Sensing Images

The integration of spatial and spectral information is beneficial to the improvement of change detection performance. However, existing methods cannot efficiently suppress the influences of spatial and spectral differences in unchanged areas. To address these issues, in this paper we propose a content-guided spatial-spectral integration network (CSI-Net) for the fusion of global spatial details and spectral difference information. Specifically, the proposed CSI-Net is composed of a spatial reasoning (SR) module, a spectral difference (SD) module, and a content-guided integration (CGI) module. In the SR module, the spatial information is learned by cascaded graph convolution blocks for global modeling. The SD module is responsible for the extraction of spectral features, by calculating the means and variances of features to reduce the impact of spectral differences in unchanged regions. In addition, in order to integrate the spatial-spectral features efficiently, we design a CGI module to further take advantage of their complementary information. In this module, high-level content information is introduced as a guide for a proper interaction. Due to the efficient spatial-spectral fusion, the proposed CSI-Net can learn the changed features better while achieving a suppression of spectral differences. Experimental results on LEVIR-CD, WHU-CD, and CLCD datasets demonstrate that the proposed CSI-Net produces better performance compared to state-of-the-art methods, and is applicable to different scenarios

A Multiscale Network with Supervised Contrastive Learning for Real-Time Facial Emotion Recognition

Real-time emotion recognition from facial expressions is a challenging task, particularly in video-based scenarios where multiple emotional states may occur over time. The difficulty increases further due to the fact that each emotional state is associated with facial expressions that vary significantly across individuals. The change of facial expressions portraying emotional state is not discrete, but rather continuous, which is very challenging to represent through computational aids. A system with the ability to detect variations in facial expressions can have a significant impact on determining the emotional state of an individual. Such a system can be very beneficial for psychologists during counseling by providing additional insights into the emotional state of a subject. In this paper, a deep learning-based system is presented to detect emotional changes in real-time video of a person by modeling the change in facial expressions. The current study is conducted on a standard dataset for training of the deep learning system and the system has provided very satisfactory outcomes in this respect.

ST-ColoNet: Spatio-Temporal Colon Segment Recognition via Hybrid Attention and Edge-Guided Feature Learning

Colo-segment recognition in colonoscopy videos is a key requirement for many downstream tasks, but existing automatic recognition methods only use colonoscopy images without fully exploiting the use of temporal information, leading to poor performance. Additionally, relevant public video-based datasets are in scarcity. To tackle this problem, we curate and release a labeled dataset specifically for the task of colo-segment recognition. In addition, we propose a two-stage deep learning-based framework, Colo-Segment Recognition via SpatioTemporal Network (ST-ColoNet), for the task of colo-segment recognition from colonoscopy videos which includes the Colorlaus module that uses metric learning to optimize edge-mediated spatial feature extraction, as well as the Full-Temp module which combines three self-attention patterns to better approximate full self-attention on long colonoscopy sequences and optimize temporal feature aggregation. Through extensive ablation experiments, we show that our framework is capable of achieving state-of-the-art performance on the task of colo-segment recognition, achieving an accuracy of 81.0% and F1-score of 70.7%, which is a tremendous improvement over state-of-the-art methods.

A Road-Conditioned Traffic Movie Prediction Network with Spatiotemporal and Structure-Consistent Learning

City-wide traffic forecasting is important for congestion management, route guidance, and intelligent transportation systems, but accurate prediction remains challenging when future traffic must be generated as spatial maps over an entire urban network. Existing traffic movie prediction methods have improved frame-level accuracy, yet many still treat forecasting mainly as image reconstruction. This can produce traffic maps that are numerically close to the ground truth but weakly constrained by road layout, connectivity, travel direction, and congestion propagation, especially in cross-city settings where both traffic behavior and road structure change. To address this limitation, this study proposes RCSNet, a road-conditioned spatiotemporal network that reformulates traffic movie prediction as topology-guided future-state generation. RCSNet extracts road-aware representations from static road maps, models multi-horizon traffic dynamics from historical observations, aligns directional traffic features with local road structure, and progressively generates future traffic maps for improved temporal consistency. A structure-consistent learning objective further encourages predictions to remain accurate, road-aligned, and spatially stable. Experiments across multiple cities show that RCSNet improves both forecasting accuracy and structural consistency. In same-city forecasting on Berlin, Antwerp, and Moscow, RCSNet reduces average MAE, MSE, and RMSE by 11.5%, 10.0%, and 5.1%, respectively, compared with the closest baseline. In cross-city testing on unseen Chicago and Bangkok, it reduces RMSE by 10.6% and 10.5% without target-city fine-tuning. Additional horizon-wise, road-structure, explainability, statistical, and efficiency analyses show that RCSNet produces more accurate, transferable, road-aligned, and computationally efficient traffic forecasts.

Federated Learning of Spiking Neural Networks under Heterogeneous Temporal Resolutions

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are biologically inspired energy-efficient models that use sparse binary spike-based communication between neurons, making them attractive for resource-constrained edge devices. Federated learning enables such devices to train collaboratively without sharing raw data. In time-series applications, edge devices often collect data at different time resolutions due to hardware and energy constraints. This temporal heterogeneity poses a fundamental challenge for federated learning: parameters learned at one temporal resolution do not necessarily transfer directly to another, which might result in the naive federated averaging being ineffective. Targeting SNNs and, more broadly, deep networks with stateful neurons, we propose a federated learning framework that addresses this temporal resolution mismatch. We investigate how neuron parameters learned from data at different temporal resolutions and model aggregation should be integrated. We evaluate the proposed framework across two SNN-native benchmark datasets (SHD and DVS-Gesture) under a range of resolution heterogeneity scenarios. Our results show that the proposed adaptation methods can substantially recover accuracy lost due to temporal mismatch, hence enabling each client to train at their local temporal resolution while remaining compatible with the global model.

FiTS: Interpretable Spiking Neurons via Frequency Selectivity and Temporal Shaping

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are a promising framework for event-driven temporal processing. Prior work has improved temporal modeling through richer neuron dynamics and network-level mechanisms such as recurrence and delays, but it remains unclear how individual spiking neurons should specialize within a network. In this work, we introduce FiTS, a spiking neuron that factorizes temporal computation within each neuron into Frequency Selectivity (FS) and Temporal Shaping (TS). The FS module parameterizes each neuron's target frequency as the maximizer of its subthreshold magnitude response, while the TS module reshapes when frequency components contribute to membrane voltage accumulation through group-delay modulation. On auditory benchmarks where frequency selectivity and timing are central to the input structure, FiTS consistently improves over a plain Leaky Integrate-and-Fire (LIF) baseline in simple feedforward SNNs without recurrence or network-level delays, while remaining competitive with strong temporal SNN baselines. Beyond accuracy, the learned target frequencies and group-delay shifts provide interpretable neuron-level summaries of the frequency and timing organization learned within the network.

Multi-Timescale Conductance Spiking Networks: A Sparse, Gradient-Trainable Framework with Rich Firing Dynamics for Enhanced Temporal Processing

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) promise low-power event-driven computation for temporally rich tasks, but commonly used neuron models often trade off gradient-based trainability, dynamical richness, and high activity sparsity. These limitations are acute in regression, where approximation error, noise and spike discretization can severely degrade continuous-valued outputs. Indeed, many state-of-the-art (SOTA) SNNs rely on simple phenomenological dynamics trained with surrogate gradients and offer limited control over spiking diversity and sparsity. To overcome such limitations, we introduce multi-timescale conductance spiking networks, a gradient-trainable framework in which neural dynamics emerge from shaping the current-voltage (I-V) curve by tuning fast, slow and ultra-slow conductances. This parametrization allows systematic control over excitability, can be implemented efficiently in analog circuits, and yields rich firing regimes including tonic, phasic and bursting responses within a single model. We derive a discrete-time formulation of these differentiable dynamics, enabling direct backpropagation through time without surrogate-gradient approximations. To probe both trainability and accuracy, we evaluate feedforward networks of these neurons at the predictability limit of Mackey-Glass time-series regression and compare them to baseline LIF and SOTA AdLIF networks. Our model outperforms LIF and AdLIF networks, while exhibiting substantially sparser activity from both communication and computational perspectives. These results highlight multi-timescale conductance spiking neurons as a promising building block for energy-aware temporal processing and neuromorphic implementation.

Multiscale Euclidean Network Trajectories: Second-Moment Geometry, Attribution, and Change Points

A central challenge in dynamic network analysis is to represent temporal evolution in a way that is both geometrically meaningful and statistically identifiable. One approach embeds a sequence of network snapshots as trajectories in a Euclidean space and relates these trajectories to node embeddings. In multilayer and unfolded spectral constructions, however, node embeddings and their underlying latent positions are identifiable only up to general linear transformations. Although this ambiguity preserves edge probabilities, it can distort geometry and invalidate distance based temporal comparisons at both the trajectory and node-levels. We develop Multiscale Euclidean Network Trajectories (MENT), a framework for multiscale temporal trajectories based on second-moment geometry. By imposing an isotropic normalization on the anchor latent positions, we reduce the relevant ambiguity to orthogonal transformations and prevent distortion of the second-moment geometry. In this canonical representation, we define a trace variation distance and mode-wise variation distances along orthogonal directions, and use multidimensional scaling to obtain low-dimensional trajectories of time points at both global and mode-wise levels. The resulting trajectories support interpretation and inference. They admit mode-wise decompositions, support attribution of global and mode-wise temporal changes to nodes, and enable change point detection through 1D trajectories. We prove consistency of the proposed unfolded spectral embedding and of the induced temporal trajectories. Experiments on two synthetic and two real dynamic networks illustrate stable and interpretable recovery of temporal structure and show strong performance against existing change point detection baselines.

Laplacian Frequency Interaction Network for Rural Thematic Road Extraction

Rural thematic road network construction aims to extract topological road structures from movement trajectory images of agricultural machinery. However, this task faces challenges where downsampling methods commonly used in existing studies tend to blur the sparse high-frequency road structures, and the heavy noise from dense field operations often leads to fragmented or redundant topologies in the extracted networks. To address these challenges, we propose LFINet, a Laplacian Frequency Interaction Network. The network begins with a Laplacian Multi-scale Separator (LMS) to decouple the image into low-frequency semantic contexts and high-frequency structural details. These components are then processed by the Cross-Frequency Interaction Block (CFIB) through a dual-pathway architecture in which a High-Frequency Block (HFB) refines local structures while a Spatial Transformer (ST) captures global semantics. Subsequently, a Frequency Gated Modulation (FGM) mechanism integrates the features from pathways by leveraging semantic contexts to calibrate the structural details. Finally, a Progressive Reconstruction Decoder iteratively fuses multi-scale features to ensure topological consistency. Experiments conducted on a real-world agricultural trajectories dataset from Henan Province, China, show that LFINet establishes a new state-of-the-art. Specifically, it achieves an F1-score of 92.54% and an IoU of 86.12%, surpassing the second-ranked method by 0.64% and 1.1%, respectively. This confirms its capability to effectively construct topological road networks from noisy and sparse field data.

Congestion-Aware Dynamic Axonal Delay for Spiking Neural Networks

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are widely regarded as an energy-efficient paradigm for modeling and processing temporal and event-driven information. Incorporating delays in SNNs has been proven to be an effective mechanism for improving spike alignment in event-driven tasks. However, existing delay learning approaches predominantly assign static delays to individual synapses, resulting in a large number of delay parameters and limited adaptability to input-dependent activity dynamics. To this end, we propose a Congestion-Aware Dynamic Axonal Delay (CADAD) mechanism, which decomposes the delay into a channel-wise static base delay for temporal structuring and a global, activity-conditioned shift that dynamically regulates the state update rate under varying spike intensities. The delay parameters are learned using differentiable linear interpolation and discretized at inference time, preserving the benefits of dynamic delay modulation while incurring only minimal additional cost. Experiments on speech benchmarks, including the Spiking Heidelberg Dataset, Spiking Speech Commands, and Google Speech Commands, demonstrate that introducing congestion-aware delays into synaptic signal transmission effectively improves accuracy on temporal tasks, notably achieving 93.75% accuracy on SHD, 80.69% accuracy on SSC, and 95.58% on GSC-35, while reducing the parameter count by approximately 50% compared to state-of-the-art delay-based methods with the same architecture.

Leveraging Imperfect Medical Data: A Manifold-Consistent Spatio-Temporal Network for Sensor-based Human Activity Recognition

Sensor-based Human Activity Recognition (HAR) has attracted increasing attention in medical and healthcare monitoring, particularly with the growth of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). However, in real-world wearable sensing scenarios, IoMT signals are often corrupted by missing measurements, sensor failures, and environmental noise, which significantly degrade the performance of conventional deep learning models that assume clean and complete inputs. To address this challenge, we propose a Manifold-Consistent Spatio-Temporal Network (MCSTN) for robust HAR under imperfect sensing conditions. The proposed framework introduces a dual-level corruption modeling mechanism that simulates realistic sensor imperfections through both physical-level corruption and diffusion-driven continuous corruption. By enforcing representation consistency across multiple corrupted views, the model learns stable and corruption-invariant semantic representations. Furthermore, we design a dual-stream spatio-temporal architecture that explicitly decouples temporal dynamics modeling and spatial correlation learning. The temporal stream captures long-term activity dynamics, while the spatial stream models inter-sensor relationships, enabling more effective spatio-temporal representation learning. Extensive experiments on three widely used HAR benchmark datasets, PAMAP2, Opportunity, and WISDM, demonstrate that the proposed MCSTN achieves competitive performance compared with existing state-of-the-art methods, particularly under imperfect sensing conditions. These results validate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed framework for real-world wearable IoMT sensing applications.

Task-guided Spatiotemporal Network with Diffusion Augmentation for EEG-based Dementia Diagnosis and MMSE Prediction

Patients with dementia typically exhibit cognitive impairment, which is routinely assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Concurrently, their underlying neurophysiological abnormalities are reflected in Electroencephalography (EEG), providing a basis for joint modeling. However, traditional multi-task approaches suffer from feature entanglement, which leads to inter-task interference when handling heterogeneous objectives.To address this challenge, we propose a task-guided spatiotemporal network (TGSN) with diffusion augmentation for EEG-based dementia diagnosis and MMSE prediction. Specifically, TGSN integrates a multi-band feature fusion module to capture complementary spectral information from EEG. Meanwhile, a pre-trained data augmentation module utilizing a diffusion process is introduced toincrease sample diversity. To model the complex spatiotemporal patterns of EEG, we propose a gated spatiotemporal attention module that captures long-range spatial dependencies and temporal dynamics. Moreover, we design a task-guided query module to achieve task-specific feature extraction, thereby mitigating task interference. The effectiveness of TGSN is evaluated on the XY02 dataset. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed network outperforms several state-of-the-art methods, achieving classification accuracies of 97.78% for Alzheimer's Disease (AD)/Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) and 83.93% for AD/FTD/Vascular Cognitive Impairment (VCI), which exceed the best baselines by 16.39% and 8.28%, respectively. In parallel, it reduces the RMSE for MMSE prediction to 1.93 and 2.38, achieving significant error reductions of 1.44 and 1.43 compared to the best baselines. Additionally, validation on the DS004504 dataset demonstrates strong cross-dataset generalization...

Micro-DualNet: Dual-Path Spatio-Temporal Network for Micro-Action Recognition

Micro-actions are subtle, localized movements lasting 1-3 seconds such as scratching one's head or tapping fingers. Such subtle actions are essential for social communication, ubiquitously used in natural interactions, and thus critical for fine-grained video understanding, yet remain poorly understood by current computer vision systems. We identify a fundamental challenge: micro-actions exhibit diverse spatio-temporal characteristics where some are defined by spatial configurations while others manifest through temporal dynamics. Existing methods that commit to a single spatio-temporal decomposition cannot accommodate this diversity. We propose a dual-path network that processes anatomically-grounded spatial entities through parallel Spatial-Temporal (ST) and Temporal-Spatial (TS) pathways. The ST path captures spatial configurations before modeling temporal dynamics, while the TS path inverts this order to prioritize temporal dynamics. Rather than fixed fusion, we introduce entity-level adaptive routing where each body part learns its optimal processing preference, complemented by Mutual Action Consistency (MAC) loss that enforces cross-path coherence. Extensive experiments demonstrate competitive performance on MA-52 dataset and state-of-the-art results on iMiGUE dataset. Our work reveals that architectural adaptation to the inherent complexity of micro-actions is essential for advancing fine-grained video understanding.

Reversible Residual Normalization Alleviates Spatio-Temporal Distribution Shift

Distribution shift severely degrades the performance of deep forecasting models. While this issue is well-studied for individual time series, it remains a significant challenge in the spatio-temporal domain. Effective solutions like instance normalization and its variants can mitigate temporal shifts by standardizing statistics. However, distribution shift on a graph is far more complex, involving not only the drift of individual node series but also heterogeneity across the spatial network where different nodes exhibit distinct statistical properties. To tackle this problem, we propose Reversible Residual Normalization (RRN), a novel framework that performs spatially-aware invertible transformations to address distribution shift in both spatial and temporal dimensions. Our approach integrates graph convolutional operations within invertible residual blocks, enabling adaptive normalization that respects the underlying graph structure while maintaining reversibility. By combining Center Normalization with spectral-constrained graph neural networks, our method captures and normalizes complex Spatio-Temporal relationships in a data-driven manner. The bidirectional nature of our framework allows models to learn in a normalized latent space and recover original distributional properties through inverse transformation, offering a robust and model-agnostic solution for forecasting on dynamic spatio-temporal systems.

SDE-Driven Spatio-Temporal Hypergraph Neural Networks for Irregular Longitudinal fMRI Connectome Modeling in Alzheimer's Disease

Longitudinal neuroimaging is essential for modeling disease progression in Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet irregular sampling and missing visits pose substantial challenges for learning reliable temporal representations. To address this challenge, we propose SDE-HGNN, a stochastic differential equation (SDE)-driven spatio-temporal hypergraph neural network for irregular longitudinal fMRI connectome modeling. The framework first employs an SDE-based reconstruction module to recover continuous latent trajectories from irregular observations. Based on these reconstructed representations, dynamic hypergraphs are constructed to capture higher-order interactions among brain regions over time. To further model temporal evolution, hypergraph convolution parameters evolve through SDE-controlled recurrent dynamics conditioned on inter-visit intervals, enabling disease-stage-adaptive connectivity modeling. We also incorporate a sparsity-based importance learning mechanism to identify salient brain regions and discriminative connectivity patterns. Extensive experiments on the OASIS-3 and ADNI cohorts demonstrate consistent improvements over state-of-the-art graph and hypergraph baselines in AD progression prediction.

A Spatial-Spectral-Frequency Interactive Network for Multimodal Remote Sensing Classification

Deep learning-based methods have achieved significant success in remote sensing Earth observation data analysis. Numerous feature fusion techniques address multimodal remote sensing image classification by integrating global and local features. However, these techniques often struggle to extract structural and detail features from heterogeneous and redundant multimodal images. With the goal of introducing frequency domain learning to model key and sparse detail features, this paper introduces the spatial-spectral-frequency interaction network (S

Fin), which integrates pairwise fusion modules across the spatial, spectral, and frequency domains. Specifically, we propose a high-frequency sparse enhancement transformer that employs sparse spatial-spectral attention to optimize the parameters of the high-frequency filter. Subsequently, a two-level spatial-frequency fusion strategy is introduced, comprising an adaptive frequency channel module that fuses low-frequency structures with enhanced high-frequency details, and a high-frequency resonance mask that emphasizes sharp edges via phase similarity. In addition, a spatial-spectral attention fusion module further enhances feature extraction at intermediate layers of the network. Experiments on four benchmark multimodal datasets with limited labeled data demonstrate that S

Echo-E $^3$ Net: Efficient Endocardial Spatio-Temporal Network for Ejection Fraction Estimation

Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is a primary marker of cardiac function. However, routine estimation from endocardial measurements requires manual delineation at end-diastole (ED) and end-systole (ES), a process that is time-consuming and subject to inter-observer variability. Reliable automation is especially valuable for point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), where computational resources are limited and acquisition quality varies. We propose Echo-E

Net, an anatomy-guided spatio-temporal network that explicitly embeds cardiac anatomy into LVEF prediction. A dual-phase Endocardial Border Detector (E

CBD) uses phase-specific cross-attention to localize ED/ES endocardial landmarks and produce phase-aware landmark embeddings, while an Endocardial Feature Aggregator (E

FA) fuses these embeddings with global statistical descriptors of deep feature maps to refine EF regression. Training is guided by a lightweight geometric loss that uses ED and ES endocardial landmarks to regularize EF prediction. On EchoNet-Dynamic and a PSAX subset of EchoNet-Pediatric, Echo-E

Net attains competitive performance using only 1.55M parameters and 8.05 GFLOPs, an order-of-magnitude compute reduction versus recent baselines, supporting real-time deployment. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/moeinheidari7829/Echo-E3Net.
