Recent advances in generative AI have democratized video creation at scale. AI-generated videos, including partially manipulated clips across visual and audio channels, pose escalating risks of semantic distortion and misuse, which motivates the need for reliable detection tools. Most existing AI-generated video detectors remain limited by single- or partial-modality of data modeling and the lack of fine-grained temporal forgery localization. To address these challenges, our primary novelty introduces a core architecture that jointly integrates an LMM semantic branch with a spatio-temporal (ST) visual branch and a multi-scale partial-spoof (PS) audio branch. This multi-modal approach enables simultaneous detection and fine-grained temporal localization of partially manipulated AI-generated video forgeries. Extensive experiments show that this approach outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods.

Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) has revolutionized the development of data-driven solutions; however, traditional frameworks often function as "black boxes", lacking the flexibility and transparency required for complex, real-world engineering tasks. Recent Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents have shifted toward code-driven approaches. However, they frequently suffer from hallucinated logic and logic entanglement, where monolithic code generation leads to unrecoverable runtime failures. In this paper, we present iML, a novel multi-agent framework designed to shift AutoML from black-box prompting to a code-guided, modular, and verifiable architectural paradigm. iML introduces three main ideas: (1) Code-Guided Planning, which synthesizes a strategic blueprint grounded in autonomous empirical profiling to eliminate hallucination; (2) Code-Modular Implementation, which decouples preprocessing and modeling into specialized components governed by strict interface contracts; and (3) Code-Verifiable Integration, which enforces physical feasibility through dynamic contract verification and iterative self-correction. We evaluate iML across MLE-BENCH and the newly introduced iML-BENCH, comprising a diverse range of real-world Kaggle competitions. The experimental results show iML's superiority over state-of-the-art agents, achieving a valid submission rate of 85% and a competitive medal rate of 45% on MLE-BENCH, with an average standardized performance score (APS) of 0.77. On iML-BENCH, iML significantly outperforms the other approaches by 38%-163% in APS. Furthermore, iML maintains a robust 70% success rate even under stripped task descriptions, effectively filling information gaps through empirical profiling. These results highlight iML's potential to bridge the gap between stochastic generation and reliable engineering, marking a meaningful step toward truly AutoML.
