A Multi-Task Deep Learning Framework for Real-Time Intelligent Video Surveillance with Temporal Event Validation
2026-07-03 09:20:58Estera Dumitru, Stelian Sp\^inuAbstract
Modern video surveillance systems generate far more video streams than human operators can effectively monitor, making automated analysis essential for timely detection of security events. This paper presents a unified multi-task deep learning framework that simultaneously performs face recognition with zone-based authorization, automatic license plate recognition, weapon detection, fire and smoke detection, and human action recognition on a shared GPU platform. Among the integrated modules, two task-specific deep-learning models are proposed in this work to address scenarios that are insufficiently represented in publicly available datasets: a single-class weapon detector fine-tuned on a merged and relabeled dataset, achieving a mean average precision (mAP@0.5) of 0.947, and a SlowFast-R50 action recognition model trained on a purpose-built vandalism dataset comprising 614 video clips, achieving 94.33% classification accuracy. To improve robustness in continuous video, all detection modules are integrated into a temporal event-validation architecture based on multi-frame confirmation, confidence-weighted voting, and cascaded filtering, transforming frame-level predictions into reliable security events. Each module is evaluated independently on established public datasets (LFW, D-Fire, FIRESENSE, and UCF-Crime), followed by integrated end-to-end system evaluation. The proposed temporal validation strategy reduces the fire and smoke false-alarm rate from 52% to 4% and improves video license plate exact-match accuracy from 66.7% to 81.8%, while the complete framework maintains real-time operation with a per-frame latency below 100 ms on commodity hardware. These results demonstrate that combining specialized deep-learning models with temporal event validation provides an effective and practical solution for reliable real-time intelligent video surveillance.

SafeGuard: A Multi-Agent Perception-Reasoning Framework for Social-Risk AI-Generated Video Detection
2026-07-03 08:03:35Wenlin Wu, Sheng Zhou, Peipei Song, Wenhao Wang, Junbin Xiao, Xun YangAbstract
As video generation paradigms evolve from localized manipulation to full-scene synthesis, AI-generated video detection becomes increasingly challenging, as forgeries exhibit coherent global structure and high perceptual realism. However, existing benchmarks are biased toward perceptual fidelity and primarily evaluate detectors based on perceptual artifacts, providing limited coverage of scenarios that require reasoning about violations of physical laws, structural coherence, or social logic. This dataset bias shapes current approaches and results in a Perception-Reasoning Gap: artifact-centric models capture low-level statistical irregularities yet lack semantic inference, whereas vision-language models perform semantic reasoning but remain insensitive to fine-grained forensic cues. To bridge this gap, we propose SafeGuard, a multi-agent framework that enables collaborative specialization between forensic perception and semantic reasoning. A hierarchical perceptual solver extracts fine-grained forensic evidence, while a self-reflective verifier enforces consistency between semantic inference and physical plausibility, forming an interpretable evidence chain. To support evaluation, we introduce SafeVid, a novel AI-generated video detection benchmark comprising 20K videos spanning 10 social risk categories, designed to evaluate physical plausibility, structural consistency, and the rationality of social behaviors. Extensive experiments demonstrate the generalization of SafeGuard, improving accuracy on SafeVid by +18.7% and consistently outperforming prior methods across four public benchmarks.

REAL-OW: Rehearsal-free Open World Object Detection with Low-Rank Adaptation and Dual-Stage Objectness Modeling
2026-07-03 06:38:54Huazhong Zhang, Xiaowen Fu, Yang Zhang, Linlin Shen, Jinbao WangAbstract
Open-World Object Detection (OWOD) requires detectors to identify previously unseen objects as unknown and incrementally incorporate them into the set of known categories, while preserving previously acquired knowledge. Existing frameworks rely heavily on exemplar replay to mitigate catastrophic forgetting, but in some real applications, storing raw data conflicts with data access restrictions and leads to data exposure risks, while incurring significant memory overhead. In this paper, we propose REAL-OW, a novel rehearsal-free framework that decouples incremental knowledge through a collaborative adapter architecture based on Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA). Specifically, we deploy General Adapters (GAs) in the backbone to enable the significance-aware refinement of cross-task universal representations, while Specific Adapters (SAs) in the decoder provide orthogonal storage for task-specific expertise. To resolve representation drift in objectness modeling under rehearsal-free constraints, we introduce Dual-Stage Objectness Modeling (DSOM), which alternates between feature aggregation and boundary consolidation to stabilize objectness distributions while maintaining the separation between known and unknown categories. Furthermore, DSOM is supported by a Calibrated Gaussian Negative Log-Likelihood (CG-NLL) distance tailored for the dispersed feature distributions inherent in rehearsal-free settings. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that REAL-OW achieves state-of-the-art performance, surpassing existing exemplar replay methods in both detection precision and unknown discovery. Our approach establishes a new baseline for rehearsal-free OWOD.

SPLIT: Training-Free AI-Generated and Partially Edited Video Detection via Spatial Patch-Level Incoherence and Temporal Roughness
Abstract
Deploying AI-generated video detectors in real-world services demands an ultra-low false positive rate (FPR) on real videos to avoid falsely rejecting authentic content, a regime where standard metrics such as AUROC fail to reflect actual operating behavior. We introduce Spatial Patch-Level Incoherence and Temporal Roughness (SPLIT), a training-free detector that operates on patch tokens from a frozen vision encoder to detect both fully generated and partially edited videos. SPLIT computes two complementary signals: Two-step Temporal Roughness (TTR), capturing non-smooth patch trajectories via one-step and two-step feature variation contrast, and Local Spatial Motion Incoherence (LSMI), measuring spatially inconsistent temporal changes through gradients of a feature-space motion field. The two are fused multiplicatively with gamma correction to sharpen real-fake separation at strict thresholds. We further propose a service-aligned evaluation protocol based on Fake Recall at fixed FPR with real-only threshold calibration and cross-real threshold transfer. Across three benchmarks (FakeParts, GenVideo, and ViF-Bench), SPLIT achieves the highest Fake Recall at FPR = $0.1\%$, substantially outperforming supervised and training-free baselines while remaining robust to post-processing with negligible overhead. The code is publicly available at this https URL .

JavaVulBench: A Java Vulnerability Benchmark with Realistic Splits, a Unified Multi-Backend Harness, and a Leakage-Aware Evaluation Mode
2026-07-02 23:32:43Norbert Sandor Szolnoki, Gabor AntalAbstract
We release \textsc{JavaVulBench}, a benchmark dataset and evaluation harness for Java vulnerability detection. The dataset contains $\sim$30{,}600 Java methods spanning 1{,}740 CVEs and 700+ projects, labelled at both method and line granularity, with per-CVE publication dates and five realistic split strategies: random, project-disjoint, temporal, deduplicated, and unseen CWE-family. The harness provides a single \texttt{LlmPrediction} schema across three backend families (encoder classifiers, local generative models served by Ollama, and API-served LLMs routed through OpenRouter) so that twelve reference detectors CodeBERT, GraphCodeBERT, UniXcoder, DeepSeek-Coder-1.3B, and eight API/open-weight LLMs (GPT-4o, GPT-4.1-mini, Claude Sonnet~4, DeepSeek-v3, DeepSeek-Coder-v2, Qwen-2.5-Coder-14B/7B, CodeLlama-13B) are evaluated under identical conditions from a single command. A pre-training contamination audit is shipped alongside every model so users can separate genuinely unseen test CVEs from potentially memorised ones. Data, code, and fine-tuned checkpoints are archived on Zenodo [31] and short demonstration video is available on YouTube (this https URL\_hqkuoM) this https URL.

Decodable but Not Detectable: A Leakage Fingerprint for Near-OOD Benchmarks
2026-07-02 21:31:50Vishnu Bindu BalachandranAbstract
While auditing a perturbation-based OOD detector on a document benchmark, we recorded an AUROC of 0.326 -- well below the 0.5 chance level. The cause is a benchmark leak: the designated "OOD" class is one the model was trained on, so its examples sit inside the in-distribution fit set and the detector is penalized for correctly ranking them as familiar. Deleting the class and retraining 35 models across two domains raises the score to 0.911. We distill the contamination into a leak fingerprint -- near-perfect supervised decodability (AUROC approximately 1) coupled with unsupervised detection collapsed below 0.65 -- and validate it on a controlled battery of 52 settings (20 leaked, 32 clean) across ResNet-50 and ViT-B/16 on CIFAR-10/100, achieving sensitivity 18/20 and specificity 31/32 in embedding space; the matched fit-set-exclusion controls are perfect at 20/20. An in-the-wild audit of 24 standard near/far OOD benchmark pairs fires on exactly one (the intrinsically hard CIFAR-100 vs CIFAR-10 pair) and on no far-OOD pair, confirming specificity and that standard cross-dataset construction is clean. Under the corrected protocol, perturbation signals are decodable but not detectable: a supervised reader recovers the OOD signal (AUROC 0.87-1.00) while no unsupervised detector does, and the perturbation method does not improve on plain Mahalanobis distance. We provide a theoretical account of why and, for transparency, retract an earlier circular correlation. The contributions are a corrected protocol and a validated leak diagnostic, not a new OOD method.

Signal from Space: Detecting Schools and Towers to Bridge the Digital Divide
2026-07-02 19:19:39Zakarya Elmimouni, Sandor Farkas, Fares Fourati, Vladimir Daigele, Walid Mathlouthi, Mohamed-Slim AlouiniAbstract
Reliable internet access is essential for modern education, yet millions of school-aged children especially in developing regions remain offline due to unconnected schools. The Giga Initiative aims to connect every school to the internet, but doing so at scale requires efficient methods to map schools and assess surrounding connectivity infrastructure without relying on sparse or noisy third-party datasets. In this work, we propose a scalable, vision-only framework that uses high-resolution satellite imagery and transfer learning to address both tasks simultaneously. By adapting pre-trained object detection models to new geographical regions with minimal labeled data, we detect schools and cell towers directly from space. We then analyze the spatial relationship between detected schools and nearby towers as a proxy for connectivity availability. This purely imagery-driven pipeline enables large-scale infrastructure mapping, reduces dependency on auxiliary data, and supports data-driven prioritization of connectivity investments in underserved areas. Our approach is demonstrated on real satellite imagery from Lesotho, showing strong performance across this region.

Diagnosing Aerial-View Object Detectors with Foundational Image Generative Models
2026-07-02 19:11:57Stanislav Panev, Minhyek Jeon, Vaishnavi Khindkar, Ahish Deshpande, Celso M de Melo, Shuowen Hu, Shayok Chakraborty, Fernando De la TorreAbstract
Recent advances in large-scale image generative models enable photorealistic scene synthesis with controllable attributes. Beyond data augmentation, their potential as diagnostic tools for trained vision systems remains unexplored in the aerial and remote sensing domains. We introduce a synthetic diagnostic framework for aerial-view vehicle detection that combines text-guided generation, attribute-controlled editing, and automated attribute verification to construct a controllable synthetic testbed. This enables fine-grained evaluation of pretrained detectors under diverse scene types and environmental conditions that are difficult to isolate in real datasets. Across three detection architectures and three real aerial datasets, synthetic scene-wise performance trends closely match real-world weaknesses. Guided by these diagnostics, targeted supplementation with small real datasets from the identified weak categories yields improvements of up to 13% AP50 while requiring substantially fewer additional samples than non-targeted augmentation. Our results show that controlled synthetic probing can predict real-domain performance gaps and guide efficient data collection. The proposed diagnostic framework is modular and can incorporate alternative generative or vision-language models as capabilities evolve. Our code and datasets are available here: this https URL

The object detection in satellite imagery has garnered considerable attention due to its extensive real-world applications and the inherent challenges it presents, including noise, fluctuating image quality, and intricate backgrounds. This paper proposed a framework for object detection that combines image enhancement and Deep Learning (DL) to make detection more accurate. First, a Gabor filter is used to process the input image to bring out important features and reduce noise. Then, normalization is applied to make sure that the data is evenly distributed so that the model works properly. After that, a model based on YOLOv11 is used to quickly learn and find object features. The proposed method achieves a mAP of 95%, precision of 97%, recall of 85%, and F1-score of 91%, which demonstrates the superior aircraft detection performance. These results show the framework accurately identify aircraft in satellite imagery and is suitable for real-time applications such as surveillance, air traffic monitoring and remote sensing analysis.

GeoMix: Descriptor-Free Visual Localization via Global Context and Multi-Detector Training
2026-07-02 17:52:41Yejun Zhang, Xinjue Wang, Zihan Wang, Esa Rahtu, Juho KannalaAbstract
Descriptor-free visual localization eliminates high-dimensional descriptor storage, preserves scene privacy, and simplifies map maintenance, yet its accuracy still lags far behind descriptor-based pipelines. We identify this gap to insufficient geometric discriminability in geometry-only matching. Without visual appearance, current methods underutilize local geometry cues, lack the global context among keypoints, and overfit to a single keypoint detector. We further observe that descriptor-free matching naturally enables multi-detector training, as heterogeneous keypoints can be optimized in a shared geometry-only space without aligning descriptor spaces. Building on these insights, we propose GeoMix, a descriptor-free 2D-3D matching framework that strengthens geometric discriminability at three levels. Locally, directional and distance-aware embeddings enrich neighborhood aggregation with fine-grained spatial structure. Globally, learnable context nodes aggregate and redistribute scene-wide information via cross-attention to resolve ambiguities beyond local receptive fields. At the training level, Mix-Training exploits this detector-agnostic geometry space to learn representations across multiple keypoint detectors. Extensive experiments on MegaDepth, Cambridge Landmarks, 7Scenes, and Aachen Day-Night show that GeoMix sets a new state of the art among descriptor-free methods, reducing 75th-percentile rotation error by 89\% and translation error by up to 90\% over the previous best, while generalizing zero-shot to unseen detectors and narrowing the gap to descriptor-based pipelines.

VisionAId: An Offline-First Multimodal Android Assistant for People with Visual Impairment, Featuring Personalized Object Retrieval
2026-07-02 16:12:50Cristian-Gabriel Florea, Stelian Sp\^inuAbstract
Over 285 million people worldwide live with a visual impairment, for whom everyday tasks such as avoiding obstacles, locating personal belongings, recognizing familiar faces, or handling cash remain persistent obstacles to personal autonomy. Existing assistive applications are typically limited to recognizing predefined categories, depend heavily on cloud connectivity, or require dedicated hardware. We present VisionAId, an Android application that turns a commodity smartphone into a real-time visual assistant. The system integrates six on-device deep learning models (metric monocular depth estimation, instance segmentation, visual and facial embeddings, face detection, and a custom banknote detector) running entirely through ONNX Runtime, with an optional cloud large language model (Google Gemini Flash) used only for narrative scene description and automatic object labeling. A distinctive contribution is a few-shot pipeline for personal objects: the user photographs an object from several angles, and the system later locates that specific instance in the environment, guiding the user toward it with augmented-reality markers, spatial audio, and distance-proportional haptics. All feedback is multimodal (Romanian speech synthesis, voice commands, vibration). On a reference device (Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra), INT8 quantization reduces depth latency from ~1200 ms to ~491 ms, the custom banknote detector reaches an mAP@50 of 0.986, and metric depth is calibrated to below 1 cm of error within 3 m.

Federated Learning for Object Detection: Enabling Collaborative Drone Learning Without Centralizing Data
2026-07-02 15:32:37Daniel M. Jimenez-Gutierrez, Enrique Zuazua, Georgios Kellaris, Joaquin del Rio, Oleksii Sliusarenko, Xabi Uribe-EtxebarriaAbstract
Object detection is a fundamental capability for AI-driven perception in safety-critical drone and edge-vision systems, including disaster response, operational security environments, infrastructure monitoring and defense applications. Robust model performance in such environments depends on large, continuously updated datasets. However, training high-performing detectors typically requires centralizing aerial imagery, which raises privacy, regulatory, storage, and bandwidth challenges. This is especially problematic in distributed drone deployments, where visual data is generated onboard and is often impractical or undesirable to transfer to a centralized infrastructure. In this work, we apply Federated Learning (FL) for object detection, enabling drones to improve a shared model while keeping image data local and private. We implement a federated object detection pipeline using the this http URL FL platform on the KIIT-MiTA dataset, and compare it with Single-drone and Centralized baselines using mean Average Precision (mAP) at IoU thresholds of 0.50 and 0.50-0.95. In our experiments, the proposed FL approach remains close to Centralized training while dramatically improving over Single-drone training, with the best lightweight model (YOLO26 nano), suitable for deployment even on very limited edge infrastructure, achieving relative gains of 52.89% and 67.80% in mAP@0.50 and mAP@0.50:0.95, respectively. These results show that FL enables scalable, high-performing, and privacy-preserving object detection across distributed drone fleets without data centralization.

Fine-Grained Computation Offload for Off-the-Shelf Servers in Tens of Lines
Abstract
Hardware accelerators now sit on the critical path of online serving. GPUs, FPGAs, and increasingly remote services such as hardware security modules, post-quantum KEMs, and inference servers. For fine-grained offloads (microseconds to a few milliseconds) the classic responses to the resulting stall both fail: a context switch costs as much as the offload, and a busy-wait burns the core. Overlapping the offload with other requests is the fix, and prior systems obtain it by adding concurrency: an async-framework rewrite, a new runtime or dataplane OS, or a hand-tuned point integration. We observe that the concurrency already exists: serving concurrent requests is suspending and resuming them, so every server ships the machinery overlap needs. Overlap is then a routing problem, not a rewrite problem: submit the offload to an executor, suspend the request with the server's own deferred-response primitive, resume it on completion. Across ten off-the-shelf servers spanning every production concurrency model, this recipe takes 22-138 lines added, at most one modified, and recovers 1.2-5.4x on real hardware; the server's concurrency model and the offload's weight predict both numbers in advance, and the win is bounded by device throughput and the server's own overlap capacity. At the limit, an LD_PRELOAD fiber runtime injects the reroute into an unmodified thread-per-connection binary (17.3x) within a characterized envelope. Rerouting suspends run-to-completion atomicity; a measured taxonomy confines the hazard to unlocked shared aggregates, and a transparent page-protection detector guards exactly those, validated on stock Redis.

Comprehensive Robustness Analysis of LiDAR-based 3D Object Detection in Autonomous Driving
2026-07-02 12:13:49Adwait Chandorkar, Kai Krink, Yerdana Maulenbay, Hasan Tercan, Tobias MeisenAbstract
Recent advancements in LiDAR-only 3D object detection have demonstrated improved detection accuracy over benchmark datasets. However, the adversarial robustness of these models remains untested. Very few adversarial robustness studies exist for LiDAR-only 3D object detection and unfortunately, even they are limited to legacy models. Moreover, there is a systemic gap in the existing evaluation frameworks that rely simply on mAP ignoring other structural and predictive factors. To fill this gap, we propose a holistic framework that evaluates adversarial robustness using two structural factors (point cloud density and point cloud localization) and three predictive factors (misclassification, localization error, distance from ego). Using this framework, we perform an empirical study and critical analysis on recent and legacy state-of-the-art models using adversarial attacks specifically designed for LiDAR-based models. Our key finding is that high-capacity, voxel-based detectors are more susceptible to structured coordinate perturbations than pillar-based detectors. Additionally, non-anchor-based detectors demonstrate poor adversarial robustness, which necessitates rethinking model training techniques. Overall, our results demonstrate that recent models are as vulnerable to adversarial attacks as their predecessors. Therefore, we argue that there is a need to improve the evaluation benchmarks for 3D object detection that not only reward architectural modifications for improving detection accuracy, but also evaluate whether the design choices improve adversarial robustness.

Evaluating Vision-Language Models as a Zero-Shot Learning Alternative to You Only Look Once and Optical Character Recognition for Nigerian License Plate Recognition
2026-07-02 10:55:24Ismail Ismail Tijjani, Ahmad Abubakar Mustapaha, Sunusi Ibrahim Muhammad, Muhammad Bashir AliyuAbstract
License Plate Recognition (LPR) systems are critical tools in traffic monitoring, security enforcement, and urban mobility management. Traditional LPR systems often rely on a multi-stage pipeline involving object detection using You Only Look Once (YOLO) and Optical Character Recognition (OCR), which suffer from limitations such as high resource demands, poor performance in unstructured environments, and the need for large annotated datasets. This study explores the potential of Vision-Language Models (VLMs) as a unified, zeroshot learning solution for Nigerian license plate recognition. Using a curated dataset of 88 challenging real-world images collected in Nigeria, we evaluate five selected VLMs: Gemini 2.0 Flash Exp (Google DeepMind), Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct (Alibaba), GPT-4o (OpenAI), Claude 4 Sonnet (Anthropic), and Llama 3.2 Vision 90b (Meta). Results based on Character Error Rate (CER) reveal that Gemini and Qwen significantly outperform other models in both accuracy and robustness, on the challenging image scenarios. This work highlights the practical advantages of VLMs over YOLO+OCR, questions the claims by model providers, and compares the performances of the VLMs.

Spatio-Temporal and Clinical Conditioning for Fine-Grained Radiology Report Retrieval
Abstract
Radiology is vital to modern healthcare, but rising imaging demand and persistent workforce shortages strain reporting capacity and clinical workflows. Automated radiology report generation has the potential to support radiologists and help alleviate this burden; however, existing retrieval-based methods remain rigid, lack explicit anatomical grounding, and do not account for longitudinal disease progression or available clinical context. In this work, we introduce STAR3, a multimodal, spatio-temporal, attentive retrieval framework for radiology report generation that aligns region-level anatomical information with clinical indications and longitudinal changes across chest X-ray studies. Our framework employs an object detector to identify anatomically meaningful regions and retrieves semantically relevant report sentences conditioned on both current clinical context and changes observed between prior and current examinations. This design enables anatomically and temporally grounded report generation that better reflects clinical reporting practice. Experiments on the MIMIC-CXR dataset demonstrate that STAR3 outperforms current retrieval-based approaches on retrieval, NLP and clinical metrics, highlighting the value of conditioning retrieval anatomically, temporally and clinically for advancing automated radiology report generation.

A Stereo Visual SLAM System Using Object-Level Motion Estimation and Geometric Filtering Based on Cross Disparity
2026-07-02 10:41:10Sujan Kumar Dhali, Bhaskar DasguptaAbstract
This paper presents OCD SLAM, a dynamic stereo visual SLAM framework that extends ORB-SLAM2 by jointly addressing dynamic objects and dynamic features in the scene. Usual visual SLAM systems operating in dynamic environments often fail in the presence of moving objects, due to the static-world assumption used in pose estimation and mapping. To address this predicament, we introduce a novel geometric approach based on the discrepancy between disparity and a newly proposed notion called ``cross disparity'', which exploits both temporal and stereo inconsistency to identify dynamic feature points. Complementary to this feature-level motion analysis, OCD SLAM integrates a 3D object detection module (SMOKE) with Kalman filter-based object tracking to perform object-level motion classification, enabling robust separation of static and dynamic scene elements for accurate pose estimation. The proposed approach has been evaluated on various sequences from the KITTI Odometry and KITTI Raw datasets. Results demonstrate that OCD SLAM achieves significant improvement in trajectory accuracy compared to ORB-SLAM2 and several state-of-the-art dynamic SLAM methods. Ablation studies further demonstrate the effectiveness of the cross disparity module in the KITTI Raw dataset and show that this method is able to detect dynamic features that are missed by the 3D object detection scheme alone.

Open-Weather Robust 3D Detection via Dual-Critic Diffusion Alignment
2026-07-02 10:13:41Shuyao Li, Chuanxing Geng, Heyang Sun, Qiang Zhou, Jingjing GuAbstract
Robust 3D object detection under adverse weather remains a critical hurdle for autonomous driving. Despite progress with LiDAR-4D radar fusion, most methods are constrained by a closed-world assumption, implicitly requiring training and test weather to align in both type and severity. This premise fails in practice: the open-ended nature of weather, and even variations within a single type like rain, cause dramatically different LiDAR degradation patterns, leading to significant performance drops in unseen conditions. To address this, we present Dual-Critic Guided Diffusion Alignment (DCDA), a weather-agnostic framework that learns to recover degraded LiDAR features toward a clean manifold. Rather than modeling specific weather types, DCDA employs a 4D radar-conditioned diffusion process to progressively refine features, guided by two complementary critics. (i) A detection-guided critic, anchored by a pre-trained clean-weather model, ensures that the refined features retain object-level discriminability and localization accuracy. (ii) A weather adversarial critic enforces holistic distributional consistency with clean-weather representations. By aligning features through semantic and distributional constraints rather than explicit weather modeling, DCDA generalizes effectively to unseen weather types and severities without requiring paired data or weather labels. We further introduce a structured open-weather benchmark with held-out type-severity combinations and extensive experiments verify DCDA's advantages.

CamoNAS: Neural Architecture Search for Enhanced Camouflaged Object Detection
2026-07-02 08:25:51Dawei Ren, Yan Zhang, Hongying Tang, Qiaoling Zhou, Jianpo LiuAbstract
Camouflaged Object Detection (COD) aims to locate and segment objects that blend into their surroundings, presenting challenges due to weak edge cues and ill-defined boundaries. Traditional COD models rely on hand-designed architectures and multi-scale feature fusion, which are often guided by intuition rather than systematic search. This paper introduces CamoNAS, a frequency-aware multi-resolution Neural Architecture Search (NAS) framework for COD. CamoNAS automatically searches both cell-level operations and network-level downsampling paths, forming a hierarchical search space tailored to detect camouflaged objects. Additionally, it adopts an RGB frequency dual-stream architecture, where a learnable wavelet transform complements the RGB spatial stream. CamoNAS achieves state-of-the-art performance on four COD benchmarks (CAMO, COD10K, NC4K, CHAMELEON), highlighting the effectiveness of NAS for COD. Our code is available at this https URL.

An Exploratory Study on LLM-Generated Code and Comments in Code Repositories
2026-07-02 08:25:15Yongyi Ji, Jiaji Wang, Yi Zhou, Fuxiang Chen, Hongji YangAbstract
The use of LLMs in software development has become increasingly widespread on tasks such as code generation and summarization. Reports from large technology companies showed that around 20% to 30% of their code are generated by LLMs. However, there remains skepticism about the practical usage of LLM-generated code and comments, such as concerns on more time for debugging the generated code and the unnaturalness of the generated comments. In this paper, we study the code and comments detected as likely to be generated by LLMs and their characteristics, the differences between company- and community-maintained repositories, and how likely bugs are associated with LLM-generated code. We conduct extensive experiments on active company- and community-maintained repositories from 2021 to 2025 using various tools and techniques that detect code and comments generated by LLMs. Based on our detector-based proxy analysis, the results suggest that code detected as likely to be generated by LLMs decreased over time and appeared frequently in test cases, while that of comments remains relatively stable. Proxy results further suggest that code detected as likely to be generated by LLMs shows substantial intra-repository code clones, whereas comments exhibit a relatively low proportion of grammatically correct sentences. In addition, the company-maintained repositories show a higher percentage of code and comments detected as likely to be generated by LLMs, and only a small percentage of the human-labelled bugs are detected as being likely associated with LLM-generated code.
