SAKE replaces costly Transformer self-attention with a physics-inspired heat-diffusion mechanism that propagates information along object edges to improve localization. By using structure-aware kernels and frequency-domain routing, it achieves high-performance event-based detection with significantly lower computational overhead.

IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology (TCSVT), 2025
A Latent Diffusion-guided De-Occluder (DDO) that inpaints corrupted features to reconstruct clean, identity-preserving representations for more robust person re-identification. Combined with a Hybrid Re-Ranking (HRR) scheme, this approach eliminates the need for explicit occlusion modeling and achieves new state-of-the-art results.
