A Multi-Modal Framework with Cross-Subject Pseudo-Labeling and Semantic Alignment for Micro-Gesture Recognition

Micro-gestures (MGs) are spontaneous and subtle body movements that frequently convey hidden human emotions. Recognizing MGs in untrimmed videos remains highly challenging due to their extremely low signal-to-noise ratio, severe long-tailed class distribution, and the inherent domain shift encountered in cross-subject evaluation scenarios. In this paper, we propose a comprehensive multi-modal framework for Track 1 of the 4th MiGA-IJCAI Challenge. To capture fine-grained representations, we design a saliency-guided multi-modal extraction pipeline integrating 68-keypoint skeleton joint coordinates, 3D heatmap volumes, and high-resolution RGB visual features. We introduce a gentle square-root smoothed weighting mechanism paired with an Orthogonal Semantic Embedding Loss to protect tail classes without compromising overall recognition capabilities. More importantly, to bridge the cross-subject generalization gap, we propose a Cross-Modal Pseudo-Labeling (CMPL) strategy for unsupervised domain adaptation, which significantly boosts single-modal robustness. A temperature-scaled soft-voting mechanism is finally utilized to alleviate overconfidence during late fusion. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our framework achieves a competitive F1-score of 68.13\%, securing the 4th place.

PEEL: A Poisoning-Exposing Encoding Theoretical Framework for Local Differential Privacy

Local Differential Privacy (LDP) is a widely adopted privacy-protection model in the Internet of Things (IoT) due to its lightweight, decentralized, and scalable nature. However, it is vulnerable to poisoning attacks, and existing defenses either incur prohibitive resource overheads or rely on domain-specific prior knowledge, limiting their practical deployment. To address these limitations, we propose PEEL, a Poisoning-Exposing Encoding theoretical framework for LDP, which departs from resource- or prior-dependent countermeasures and instead leverages the inherent structural consistency of LDP-perturbed data. As a non-intrusive post-processing module, PEEL amplifies stealthy poisoning effects by re-encoding LDP-perturbed data via sparsification, normalization, and low-rank projection, thereby revealing both output and rule poisoning attacks through structural inconsistencies in the reconstructed space. Theoretical analysis proves that PEEL, integrated with LDP, retains unbiasedness and statistical accuracy, while being robust to expose both output and rule poisoning attacks. Moreover, evaluation results show that LDP-integrated PEEL not only outperforms four state-of-the-art defenses in terms of poisoning exposure accuracy but also significantly reduces client-side computational costs, making it highly suitable for large-scale IoT deployments.
