Many classic opera videos exhibit poor visual quality due to the limitations of early filming equipment and long-term degradation during storage. Although real-world video super-resolution (RWVSR) has achieved significant advances in recent years, directly applying existing methods to degraded opera
Gait recognition has achieved remarkable success in constrained environments, yet its performance often degrades significantly in cross-domain and cross-vertical-view scenarios. This is primarily due to the fact that domain-specific silhouette geometry causes models to overfit to extrinsic geometric
Owing to its rapid progress and broad application prospects, few-shot action recognition has attracted considerable interest. However, current methods are predominantly based on limited single-modal data, which does not fully exploit the potential of multimodal information. This paper presents a nov
