CAGE: Continuity-Aware edGE Network Unlocks Robust Floorplan Reconstruction

We present \textbf{CAGE} (\textit{Continuity-Aware edGE}) network, a \textcolor{red}{robust} framework for reconstructing vector floorplans directly from point-cloud density maps. Traditional corner-based polygon representations are highly sensitive to noise and incomplete observations, often resulting in fragmented or implausible layouts. Recent line grouping methods leverage structural cues to improve robustness but still struggle to recover fine geometric details. To address these limitations, we propose a \textit{native} edge-centric formulation, modeling each wall segment as a directed, geometrically continuous edge. This representation enables inference of coherent floorplan structures, ensuring watertight, topologically valid room boundaries while improving robustness and reducing artifacts. Towards this design, we develop a dual-query transformer decoder that integrates perturbed and latent queries within a denoising framework, which not only stabilizes optimization but also accelerates convergence. Extensive experiments on Structured3D and SceneCAD show that \textbf{CAGE} achieves state-of-the-art performance, with F1 scores of 99.1\% (rooms), 91.7\% (corners), and 89.3\% (angles). The method also demonstrates strong cross-dataset generalization, underscoring the efficacy of our architectural innovations. Code and pretrained models will be released upon acceptance.

Chat-Capsule: A Hierarchical Capsule for Dialog-level Emotion Analysis

Many studies on dialog emotion analysis focus on utterance-level emotion only. These models hence are not optimized for dialog-level emotion detection, i.e. to predict the emotion category of a dialog as a whole. More importantly, these models cannot benefit from the context provided by the whole dialog. In real-world applications, annotations to dialog could fine-grained, including both utterance-level tags (e.g. speaker type, intent category, and emotion category), and dialog-level tags (e.g. user satisfaction, and emotion curve category). In this paper, we propose a Context-based Hierarchical Attention Capsule~(Chat-Capsule) model, which models both utterance-level and dialog-level emotions and their interrelations. On a dialog dataset collected from customer support of an e-commerce platform, our model is also able to predict user satisfaction and emotion curve category. Emotion curve refers to the change of emotions along the development of a conversation. Experiments show that the proposed Chat-Capsule outperform state-of-the-art baselines on both benchmark dataset and proprietary dataset. Source code will be released upon acceptance.

A Dual-Channel Framework for Sarcasm Recognition by Detecting Sentiment Conflict

Sarcasm employs ambivalence, where one says something positive but actually means negative, and vice versa. Due to the sophisticated and obscure sentiment, sarcasm brings in great challenges to sentiment analysis. In this paper, we show up the essence of sarcastic text is that the literal sentiment (expressed by the surface form of the text) is opposite to the deep sentiment (expressed by the actual meaning of the text). To this end, we propose a Dual-Channel Framework by modeling both literal and deep sentiments to recognize the sentiment conflict. Specifically, the proposed framework is capable of detecting the sentiment conflict between the literal and deep meanings of the input text. Experiments on the political debates and the Twitter datasets show that our framework achieves the best performance on sarcasm recognition.
