In the domain of video surveillance, describing the behavior of each individual within the video is becoming increasingly essential, especially in complex scenarios with multiple individuals present. This is because describing each individual's behavior provides more detailed situational analysis, enabling accurate assessment and response to potential risks, ensuring the safety and harmony of public places. Currently, video-level captioning datasets cannot provide fine-grained descriptions for each individual's specific behavior. However, mere descriptions at the video-level fail to provide an in-depth interpretation of individual behaviors, making it challenging to accurately determine the specific identity of each individual. To address this challenge, we construct a human-centric video surveillance captioning dataset, which provides detailed descriptions of the dynamic behaviors of 7,820 individuals. Specifically, we have labeled several aspects of each person, such as location, clothing, and interactions with other elements in the scene, and these people are distributed across 1,012 videos. Based on this dataset, we can link individuals to their respective behaviors, allowing for further analysis of each person's behavior in surveillance videos. Besides the dataset, we propose a novel video captioning approach that can describe individual behavior in detail on a person-level basis, achieving state-of-the-art results. To facilitate further research in this field, we intend to release our dataset and code.

Automated Program Repair (APR) struggles with complex logic errors and silent failures. Current LLM-based APR methods are mostly static, relying on source code and basic test outputs, which fail to accurately capture complex runtime behaviors and dynamic data dependencies. While incorporating runtime evidence like execution traces exposes concrete state transitions, a single LLM interpreting this in isolation often overfits to specific hypotheses, producing patches that satisfy tests by coincidence rather than correct logic. Therefore, runtime evidence should act as objective constraints rather than mere additional input. We propose TraceRepair, a multi-agent framework that leverages runtime facts as shared constraints for patch validation. A probe agent captures execution snapshots of critical variables to form an objective repair basis. Meanwhile, a committee of specialized agents cross-verifies candidate patches to expose inconsistencies and iteratively refine them. Evaluated on the Defects4J benchmark, TraceRepair correctly fixes 392 defects, substantially outperforming existing LLM-based approaches. Extensive experiments demonstrate improved efficiency and strong generalization on a newly constructed dataset of recent bugs, confirming that performance gains arise from dynamic reasoning rather than memorization.
