AttentionDep: Domain-Aware Attention for Explainable Depression Severity Assessment
In today's interconnected society, social media platforms provide a window into individuals' thoughts, emotions, and mental states. This paper explores the use of platforms like Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), and Reddit for depression severity detection. We propose AttentionDep, a domain-aware attention model that drives explainable depression severity estimation by fusing contextual and domain knowledge. Posts are encoded hierarchically using unigrams and bigrams, with attention mechanisms hi…

AttenTrack: Mobile User Attention Awareness Based on Context and External Distractions
In the mobile internet era, managing limited attention amid information overload is crucial for enhancing collaboration and information delivery. However, current attention-aware systems often depend on wearables or personalized data, limiting their scalability and cross-context adaptability. Inspired by psychological theories, we attempt to treat mobile notifications as naturally occurring external distractions and infer users' attention states based on their response behaviors and contextual …

VideoNSA: Native Sparse Attention Scales Video Understanding
Video understanding in multimodal language models remains limited by context length: models often miss key transition frames and struggle to maintain coherence across long time scales. To address this, we adapt Native Sparse Attention (NSA) to video-language models. Our method, VideoNSA, adapts Qwen2.5-VL through end-to-end training on a 216K video instruction dataset. We employ a hardware-aware hybrid approach to attention, preserving dense attention for text, while employing NSA for video. Co…

Interesting, had to triple-confirm turning off Autopilot on Patreon (creator account).
2nd popup appears after turning it off in 1st popup.

A quick Gaza Verified update:
I’m currently traveling so I won’t be online all the time in the next week.
I’m also working on a new automated verification call scheduling system that I hope we can start using next week. It will automate everything but the actual video calls themselves and add some more checks to our verification process. It also removes Signal from our process, replacing it with an embedded Jitsi video call component.
These developments are based on our exp…
