Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable fidelity in simulating social dynamics, yet using them to inform high-stakes crisis policy requires rigorous causal evaluation. We introduce CRISIS COGNITION, a framework rooted in generative Structural Causal Models (SCM) that functions as an in-silico hypothesis generator. By coupling real-world telemetry with 1,813 agents, we conduct a counterfactual simulation to evaluate communication strategies. Unlike prior descriptive work, we employ a Stratified Analysis to strictly control for personality confounders. Our simulations generate a computational hypothesis: within the LLM’s generative process, emotional scaffolding serves as a functional prerequisite to unlock valid reasoning paths for high-neuroticism agents. Crucially, we identify a “Sedative Effect” in simultaneous interventions, confirming that the sequence of support is as vital as the content. This framework provides a rigorous testbed for evaluating strategies before human-subject trials.

Recent advances in text-to-audio-video (T2AV) generation have enabled models to synthesize audio-visual videos with multi-participant dialogues. However, existing evaluation benchmarks remain largely designed for human-recorded videos or single-speaker settings. As a result, structural failures in generated multi-talker dialogue videos, such as identity drift, unnatural turn transitions, and audio-visual misalignment, cannot be effectively diagnosed. To address this issue, we introduce MTAVG-Bench, a failure-driven diagnostic benchmark for multi-talker dialogue-centric audio-video generation. MTAVG-Bench is built via a semi-automatic pipeline, where 1.8k videos are generated using mainstream T2AV models with carefully designed prompts, yielding 2.4k manually annotated QA pairs for fine-grained failure diagnosis. The benchmark evaluates multi-speaker dialogue generation at four levels: audio-visual signal fidelity, temporal attribute consistency, social interaction, and cinematic expression. Built on a hierarchical failure taxonomy and a targeted QA protocol, MTAVG-Bench is primarily designed to evaluate whether proprietary and open-source omni-models can reliably identify failure modes in multi-speaker T2AV outputs. We benchmark 12 proprietary and open-source omni-models on MTAVG-Bench, with Gemini 3 Pro achieving the strongest overall performance, while leading open-source models remain competitive in signal fidelity and consistency. Overall, MTAVG-Bench enables fine-grained failure analysis for rigorous model comparison and targeted video generation refinement.

"The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) provides a standardized framework for encoding diagnoses, serving critical roles in clinical scenarios. Automatic ICD coding aims to assign formalized diagnostic codes to medical records for documentation and analysis, which is challenged by an extremely large and imbalanced label space, noisy and heterogeneous clinical text,and the need for interpretability. In this paper, we propose a structured multi-class classification framework that partitions diseases into clinically coherent groups, enabling group-specific dataaugmentation and supervision. Our method combines input compression with generative and discriminative fine-tuning strategies tailored to primary and secondary diagnoses, respectively.On the CCL2025-Eval Task 8 benchmark for Chinese electronic medical records, our approach ranked first in the final evaluation."

Document-level Event Causality Identification (DECI) aims to extract causal relations between events in a document. It challenges conventional sentence-level task (SECI) with difficult long-text understanding. In this paper, we propose a novel DECI model (SENDIR) for better document-level reasoning. Different from existing works that build an event graph via linguistic tools, SENDIR does not require any prior knowledge. The basic idea is to discriminate event pairs in the same sentence or span multiple sentences by assuming their different information density: 1) low density in the document suggests sparse attention to skip irrelevant information. Our module 1 designs various types of attention for event representation learning to capture long-distance dependence. 2) High density in a sentence makes SECI relatively easy. Module 2 uses different weights to highlight the roles and contributions of intra- and inter-sentential reasoning, which introduces supportive event pairs for joint modeling. Extensive experiments demonstrate great improvements in SENDIR and the effectiveness of various sparse attention for document-level representations. Codes will be released later.
