UrbanClipAtlas: A Visual Analytics Framework for Event and Scene Retrieval in Urban Videos
Abstract Extracting actionable insights from long‐duration urban videos is often labor‐intensive: analysts must manually sift through raw footage to pinpoint target events or uncover broader behavioral trends. In this work, we present UrbanClipAtlas, a visual analytics system for exploring long urban videos recorded at street intersections ...

Single Line Drawing Generation via Semantics‐Driven Optimization
We present a method for automatically generating single‐line drawings in vector format, guided by a text prompt or an input image. Our approach leverages score distillation sampling to optimize the parameters of a uniform rational B‐spline (URBS) curve, ensuring that the drawing consists of a single continuous stroke by design.

Dense video captioning using unsupervised semantic information
We introduce a method to learn unsupervised semantic visual information based on the premise that complex events can be decomposed into simpler events and that these simple events are shared across several complex events. We first employ a clustering method to group representations producing a visual codebook.

Advances in 4D Representation: Geometry, Motion, and Interaction
We survey 4D representation through three key pillars — geometry, motion, and interaction — offering a selective, representation‐centric perspective to guide researchers in choosing and customizing the right 4D representation for their tasks. Abstract We present a survey on 4D generation and reconstruction, a fast‐evolving subfield of computer graphics

Homo Nationalis and the Moralisation of Belonging: Rethinking National Identity in Austria
ABSTRACT This article examines how national identity and belonging in contemporary Austria are articulated through moral rather than ideological vocabularies. Analysing presidential, party, media and social media discourse surrounding the 2025 National Day, it conceptualises the homo nationalis as the moral citizen who embodies the nation's virtues of ...

Abstract Postcolonial textbook research leads us to reflect on the representation of (post)colonial communities in educational media for adolescents in geography education. This paper contributes to this scholarship through Critical Discourse Analysis tracing how nine Dutch geography textbooks (1946–2018) have represented such communities from ...

Multimodal Video Summarization Using Vision‐Language Embeddings and Hierarchical Temporal Modeling
Combining BLIP‐2 image captions with CLIP vision–language embeddings gives video frames semantic meaning that pixels alone cannot convey. Processed by a multi‐scale temporal U‐Net and hierarchical shot‐aware transformer, these multimodal features achieve a state‐of‐the‐art 59.27% F1‐score on SumMe using only 28.27M parameters.

Emotion and Engagement Across the Idol Spectrum: Comparing Virtual and Human Idols
ABSTRACT The increasing adoption of virtual idols in entertainment platforms raises critical questions about how viewers respond to their emotional performances compared to human idols. Despite their growing presence, little is known about whether and how emotional expressivity differs across performer modalities and content formats, or how these ...
