Evaluating Open-Weight LLMs for Turkish Domain Documents Under Retrieval and Hardware Constraints

Most Turkish-capable large language models (LLMs) are evaluated using general-purpose benchmarks rather than long, structurally complex domain documents. This paper evaluates five open-weight 7B-8B models for Turkish document question answering under a resource-constrained local deployment setting. The primary benchmark contains 100 systematically validated questions derived from a 109-page industrial R&D report, and the evaluation protocol is replicated using a second 112-page public-sector report and an independently constructed 100-question set. All models are evaluated locally on an NVIDIA RTX 3050 laptop GPU with 6 GB VRAM using controlled prompting, decoding, and 4-bit quantisation. The principal methodological contribution is an evidence-annotated evaluation protocol that separates retrieval failure from downstream model reasoning failure without requiring additional model calls. On the primary benchmark, end-to-end accuracy ranges from 49% to 75%. Seven lexical, dense, and hybrid retrieval configurations are additionally compared using 95% Wilson intervals and exact paired McNemar tests; none significantly outperforms the character TF-IDF baseline on either document. Evidence recall saturates differently across the two reports, showing that retrieval and effective context capacity can be binding constraints for some documents but not others. These results demonstrate that model selection, retrieval behaviour, and hardware limits must be evaluated separately when deploying open-weight LLMs for Turkish domain documents.

Fine-Grained Action Recognition with Cross-Attentive Latent Sparse Experts

Fine-grained human action recognition (FHAR) must distinguish visually similar actions that differ mainly in body configuration, timing, or local appearance. RGB representations retain visual context but often suppress joint-level geometry, whereas skeleton representations encode kinematics but discard dense spatial detail. We introduce FineX, which factorizes fine-grained cues into RGB appearance, pose heatmap geometry, and skeletal-graph topology. Pairwise cross-attention enables symmetric, stream-preserving information exchange, followed by a streamwise latent sparse Mixture-of-Experts that routes each representation to a content-dependent subset of shared experts, regularized by a load-balancing objective. FineX achieves state-of-the-art results on Gym99, Gym288, and Diving48. On the long-tailed Gym288, it raises mean class accuracy from 68.6% to 76.2% (+7.6 points) without textual supervision or large-scale vision-language pre-training, demonstrating the benefit of structured visual-pose-graph fusion and conditional expert refinement for FHAR.

TAG-Head: Time-Aligned Graph Head for Plug-and-Play Fine-grained Action Recognition

Fine-grained human action recognition (FHAR) is challenging because visually similar actions differ by subtle spatio-temporal cues. Many recent systems enhance discriminability with extra modalities (e.g., pose, text, optical flow), but this increases annotation burden and computational cost. We introduce TAG-Head, a lightweight spatio-temporal graph head that upgrades standard 3D backbones (SlowFast, R(2+1)D-34, I3D, etc.) for FHAR using RGB only. Our pipeline first applies a Transformer encoder with learnable 3D positional encodings to the backbone tokens, capturing long-range dependencies across space and time. The resulting features are then refined by a graph in which (i) fully-connected intra-frame edges to resolve subtle appearance differences within frames, and (ii) time-aligned temporal edges that connect features at the same spatial location across frames to stabilise motion cues without over-smoothing. The head is compact (little parameter/FLOP overhead), plug-and-play across backbones, and trained end-to-end with the backbone. Extensive evaluations on FineGym (Gym99 and Gym288) and HAA500 show that TAG-Head sets a new state-of-the-art among RGB-only models and surpasses many recent multimodal approaches (video + pose + text) that rely on privileged information. Ablations disentangle the contributions of the Transformer and the graph topology, and complexity analyses confirm low latency. TAG-Head advances FHAR by explicitly coupling global context with high-resolution spatial interactions and low-variance temporal continuity inside a slim, composable graph head. The simplicity of the design enables straightforward adoption in practical systems that favour RGB-only sensors, while delivering performance gains typically associated with heavier or multimodal models. Code will be released on GitHub.
