Most existing state-of-the-art video classification methods assume that the training data obey a uniform distribution. However, video data in the real world typically exhibit an imbalanced long-tailed class distribution, resulting in a model bias towards head class and relatively low performance on tail class. While the current long-tailed classification methods usually focus on image classification, adapting it to video data is not a trivial extension. We propose an end-to-end multi-expert distribution calibration method to address these challenges based on two-level distribution information. The method jointly considers the distribution of samples in each class (intra-class distribution) and the overall distribution of diverse data (inter-class distribution) to solve the issue of imbalanced data under long-tailed distribution. By modeling the two-level distribution information, the model can jointly consider the head classes and the tail classes and significantly transfer the knowledge from the head classes to improve the performance of the tail classes. Extensive experiments verify that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on the long-tailed video classification task.

Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) has long been a fundamental task in computer vision, with broad applications in various real-world scenarios. However, due to distribution shifts in appearance, motion pattern, and catagory between the training and testing data, model performance degrades considerably during online inference in MOT. Test-Time Adaptation (TTA) has emerged as a promising paradigm to alleviate such distribution shifts. However, existing TTA methods often fail to deliver satisfactory results in MOT, as they primarily focus solely on frame-level adaptation while neglecting temporal consistency and identity association across frames and videos. Inspired by human decision-making process, this paper propose a Test-time Calibration from Experience and Intuition (TCEI) framework. In this framework, the Intuitive system utilizes transient memory to recall recently observed objects for rapid predictions, while the Experiential system leverages the accumulated experience from prior test videos to reassess and calibrate these intuitive predictions. Furthermore, both confident and uncertain objects during online testing are exploited as historical priors and reflective cases, respectively, enabling the model to adapt to the testing environment and alleviate performance degradation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed TCEI framework consistently achieves superior performance across multiple benchmark datasets and significantly enhances the model's adaptability under distribution shifts. The code will be released at https://github.com/1941Zpf/TCEI.

Agentic artificial intelligence systems promise to accelerate scientific workflows, but neuroimaging poses unique challenges: heterogeneous modalities (sMRI, fMRI, dMRI, EEG), long multi-stage pipelines, and persistent reproducibility risks. To address this gap, we present NeuroClaw, a domain-specialized multi-agent research assistant for executable and reproducible neuroimaging research. NeuroClaw operates directly on raw neuroimaging data across formats and modalities, grounding decisions in dataset semantics and BIDS metadata so users need not prepare curated inputs or bespoke model code. The platform combines harness engineering with end-to-end environment management, including pinned Python environments, Docker support, automated installers for common neuroimaging tools, and GPU configuration. In practice, this layer emphasizes checkpointing, post-execution verification, structured audit traces, and controlled runtime setup, making toolchains more transparent while improving reproducibility and auditability. A three-tier skill/agent hierarchy separates user-facing interaction, high-level orchestration, and low-level tool skills to decompose complex workflows into safe, reusable units. Alongside the NeuroClaw framework, we introduce NeuroBench, a system-level benchmark for executability, artifact validity, and reproducibility readiness. Across multiple multimodal LLMs, NeuroClaw-enabled runs yield consistent and substantial score improvements compared with direct agent invocation.

Parameter-efficient fine-tuning has emerged as a promising paradigm in RGB-T tracking, enabling downstream task adaptation by freezing pretrained parameters and fine-tuning only a small set of parameters. This set forms a rank space made up of multiple individual ranks, whose expressiveness directly shapes the model's adaptability. However, quantitative analysis reveals low-rank adaptation exhibits significant redundancy in the rank space, with many ranks contributing almost no practical information. This hinders the model's ability to learn more diverse knowledge to address the various challenges in RGB-T tracking. To address this issue, we propose the Group Orthogonal Low-Rank Adaptation (GOLA) framework for RGB-T tracking, which effectively leverages the rank space through structured parameter learning. Specifically, we adopt a rank decomposition partitioning strategy utilizing singular value decomposition to quantify rank importance, freeze crucial ranks to preserve the pretrained priors, and cluster the redundant ranks into groups to prepare for subsequent orthogonal constraints. We further design an inter-group orthogonal constraint strategy. This constraint enforces orthogonality between rank groups, compelling them to learn complementary features that target diverse challenges, thereby alleviating information redundancy. Experimental results demonstrate that GOLA effectively reduces parameter redundancy and enhances feature representation capabilities, significantly outperforming state-of-the-art methods across four benchmark datasets and validating its effectiveness in RGB-T tracking tasks.
