Human-defined creativity is highly abstract, posing a challenge for multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to comprehend and assess creativity that aligns with human judgments. The absence of an existing benchmark further exacerbates this dilemma. To this end, we propose CreBench, which consists of two key components: 1) an evaluation benchmark covering the multiple dimensions from creative idea to process to products; 2) CreMIT (Creativity Multimodal Instruction Tuning dataset), a multimodal creativity evaluation dataset, consisting of 2.2K diverse-sourced multimodal data, 79.2K human feedbacks and 4.7M multityped instructions. Specifically, to ensure MLLMs can handle diverse creativity-related queries, we prompt GPT to refine the human feedback to activate stronger creativity assessment capabilities. CreBench serves as a foundation for building MLLMs that understand human-aligned creativity. Based on the CreBench, we fine-tune open-source general MLLMs, resulting in CreExpert, a multimodal creativity evaluation expert model. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed CreExpert models achieve significantly better alignment with human creativity evaluation compared to state-ofthe-art MLLMs, including the most advanced GPT-4V and Gemini-Pro-Vision.

Emotion recognition from EEG signals is crucial for understanding complex brain dynamics. Existing methods typically rely on static frequency bands and graph convolutional networks (GCNs) to model brain connectivity. However, EEG signals are inherently non-stationary and exhibit substantial individual variability, making static-band approaches inadequate for capturing their dynamic properties. Moreover, spatial-temporal dependencies in EEG often lead to feature degradation during node aggregation, ultimately limiting recognition performance. To address these challenges, we propose the Spatial-Temporal Electroencephalograph Collaboration framework (Stella). Our approach introduces an Adaptive Bands Selection module (ABS) that dynamically extracts low- and high-frequency components, generating dual-path features comprising phase brain networks for connectivity modeling and time-series representations for local dynamics. To further mitigate feature degradation, the Fourier Graph Operator (FGO) operates in the spectral domain, while the Spatial-Temporal Encoder (STE) enhances representation stability and density. Extensive experiments on benchmark EEG datasets demonstrate that Stella achieves state-of-the-art performance in emotion recognition, offering valuable insights for graph-based modeling of non-stationary neural signals.

Recently, LiDAR-based fully sparse 3D object detection has gained great attention, which utilizes point clouds to boost efficiency. Nevertheless, the relationship between well-studied dense representation and fully sparse representation is under-explored in existing studies, which focuses solely on building sparse representation by feature diffusion to solve the notorious center point missing problem. To this end, we propose a dense-guided fully sparse detection scheme, named DGFSD, to bridge the gap between dense and sparse features by dense-guided diffusion. Different from prior studies, we propose DgD (Dense-guided Diffusion) to overcome the center feature missing problem by dense knowledge transferring. Specifically, DgD transfers high-quality central point features from dense representations to endow sparse representations with dense knowledge. Moreover, we customize DFW (Dense Feature Weighting) to express uninformative representation and lift foreground representation. It makes high-quality dense feature contribute more to arcuate regression. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to explore dense knowledge's impact on fully sparse framework. Extensive experiments conducted on nuScenes and Argoverse2 benchmark demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Specifically, DGFSD achieves 71.6% NDS and 67.3% mAP on the nuScenes test benchmark. On Argoverse2, DGFSD achieves 40.6% mAP, outperforming previous best hybrid and fully sparse methods. The code is available at https://github.com/Raiden-cn/DGFSD.

Federated learning (FL) has gained widespread attention for its privacy-preserving and collaborative learning capabilities. Due to significant statistical heterogeneity, traditional FL struggles to generalize a shared model across diverse data domains. Personalized federated learning addresses this issue by dividing the model into a globally shared part and a locally private part, with the local model correcting representation biases introduced by the global model. Nevertheless, locally converged parameters more accurately capture domain-specific knowledge, and current methods overlook the potential benefits of these parameters. To address these limitations, we propose PM-MoE architecture. This architecture integrates a mixture of personalized modules and an energy-based personalized modules denoising, enabling each client to select beneficial personalized parameters from other clients. We applied the PM-MoE architecture to nine recent model-split-based personalized federated learning algorithms, achieving performance improvements with minimal additional training. Extensive experiments on six widely adopted datasets and two heterogeneity settings validate the effectiveness of our approach. The source code is available at https://github.com/dannis97500/PM-MOE.
