CALM-AH: An ABAW11-Calibrated Multimodal Ensemble with Reliability-Gated Multi-Expert Consensus for Video-Level Ambivalence and Hesitancy Recognition

Ambivalence and hesitancy (A/H) are subtle behavioural states that may be expressed through language, voice, facial activity, and other non-verbal cues. The ABAW11 A/H Video Recognition Challenge asks systems to assign a binary A/H label to each naturalistic interview video. Performance is measured using Macro-F1 so that recognition of both A/H and No-A/H samples receives equal importance. We present CALM-AH, a multimodal ensemble that combines textual, acoustic, visual, and derived behavioural-statistical features. We construct 15 non-empty combinations of these feature branches. For each combination, we select the best of three classifier families using validation binary cross-entropy and optimise its decision threshold for validation Macro-F1. The resulting binary decisions are combined using fixed hard-voting weights transferred from BROTHER. We further introduce Reliability-Gated Multi-Expert Consensus(RG-MEC), an anchor-preserving decision-level ensemble that combines an initial prediction with three complementary correction experts: CALM-AH, AffectGPT, and a GPT-based semantic verifier. The initial system provides the default prediction. Its label is overridden only when all three correction experts unanimously support the same alternative class; otherwise, the anchor prediction is retained. This unanimity-gated design limits the influence of isolated expert errors while permitting bidirectional correction when task-specific, multimodal-affective, and semantic-pragmatic evidence are fully consistent. On the participant-disjoint ABAW11 dataset, CALM-AH achieves a Macro-F1 of 0.7525, and the complete RG-MEC system achieves 0.7771.

FedStain: Modeling Higher-Order Stain Statistics for Federated Domain Generalization in Computational Pathology

Robust whole-slide image (WSI) analysis under strict data-governance remains challenging due to substantial cross-institutional stain heterogeneity. Domain generalization (DG) mitigates these shifts but typically requires centralized data, conflicting with privacy regulations. Federated learning (FedL) provides a decentralized alternative; however, existing FedL and federated DG (FedDG) approaches rely almost exclusively on low-order statistics, assuming Gaussian-like stain distributions. In contrast, real-world staining processes often produce asymmetric, heavy-tailed color distributions due to biochemical diffusion and scanner nonlinearity. Consequently, current methods fail to model the higher-order, non-Gaussian characteristics dominating real-world stain variability. To address this, we propose FedStain, a stain-aware FedDG framework explicitly incorporating higher-order stain moments--skewness and kurtosis--as compact statistical descriptors exchanged during federated optimization. These descriptors require no pixel-level data transmission, preserving strict privacy and communication efficiency, while enabling the global model to capture stain variability missed by low-order statistics. FedStain also employs a contrastive, cross-site parameter aggregation strategy to promote stain-invariant representations without relaxing data constraints. Extensive experiments on Camelyon17 and our new MvMidog-Fed benchmark show FedStain yields consistent improvements, outperforming state-of-the-art FedL, DG, and FedDG baselines by up to +3.9% absolute accuracy. To our knowledge, FedStain is the first FedDG approach to explicitly model higher-order stain statistics, enabling robust cross-institutional deployment in computational pathology.

RoomPlanner: Explicit Layout Planner for Easier LLM-Driven 3D Room Generation

In this paper, we propose RoomPlanner, the first fully automatic 3D room generation framework for painlessly creating realistic indoor scenes with only short text as input. Without any manual layout design or panoramic image guidance, our framework can generate explicit layout criteria for rational spatial placement. We begin by introducing a hierarchical structure of language-driven agent planners that can automatically parse short and ambiguous prompts into detailed scene descriptions. These descriptions include raw spatial and semantic attributes for each object and the background, which are then used to initialize 3D point clouds. To position objects within bounded environments, we implement two arrangement constraints that iteratively optimize spatial arrangements, ensuring a collision-free and accessible layout solution. In the final rendering stage, we propose a novel AnyReach Sampling strategy for camera trajectory, along with the Interval Timestep Flow Sampling (ITFS) strategy, to efficiently optimize the coarse 3D Gaussian scene representation. These approaches help reduce the total generation time to under 30 minutes. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method can produce geometrically rational 3D indoor scenes, surpassing prior approaches in both rendering speed and visual quality while preserving editability. The code will be available soon.
