We introduce Omni-MMSI, a new task that requires comprehensive social interaction understanding from raw audio, vision, and speech input. The task involves perceiving identity-attributed social cues (e.g., who is speaking what) and reasoning about the social interaction (e.g., whom the speaker refers to). This task is essential for developing AI assistants that can perceive and respond to human interactions. Unlike prior studies that operate on oracle-preprocessed social cues, Omni-MMSI reflects realistic scenarios where AI assistants must perceive and reason from raw data. However, existing pipelines and multi-modal LLMs perform poorly on Omni-MMSI because they lack reliable identity attribution capabilities, which leads to inaccurate social interaction understanding. To address this challenge, we propose Omni-MMSI-R, a reference-guided pipeline that produces identity-attributed social cues with tools and conducts chain-of-thought social reasoning. To facilitate this pipeline, we construct participant-level reference pairs and curate reasoning annotations on top of the existing datasets. Experiments demonstrate that Omni-MMSI-R outperforms advanced LLMs and counterparts on Omni-MMSI. Project page: https://sampson-lee.github.io/omni-mmsi-project-page.

Collaborative fairness in federated learning ensures that clients are rewarded according to their contributions, thereby fostering long-term participation among clients. However, existing methods often under-reward low-contributing clients in the early training stage and neglect critical issues (consistency across local models or unequal neuron training frequencies in the global model), leading to degraded performance. To address these issues, we propose FedRAC, a novel Federated learning framework employing Rolling submodel Allocation for Collaborative fairness, without compromising the global model performance. First, we design a dynamic reputation calculation module with a theoretical fairness guarantee to generate reputations matching clients' contributions. It adjusts their reputations dynamically during training, ensuring low-contribution clients access better models in the early stages for adequate training. Second, we propose a rolling submodel allocation module that assigns high-performance submodels to clients with high reputations. This module prioritizes low-frequency neurons during allocation and is supported by theoretical convergence guarantees, ensuring that all neurons in the global model are fully trained. Extensive experiments are conducted on four public datasets to confirm the advantages of our method in terms of fairness and model accuracy.

Fairness is a core element in the trustworthy deployment of deepfake detection models, especially in the field of digital identity security. Biases in detection models toward different demographic groups, such as gender and race, may lead to systemic misjudgments, exacerbating the digital divide and social inequities. However, current fairness-enhanced detectors often improve fairness at the cost of detection accuracy. To address this challenge, we propose a dual-mechanism collaborative optimization framework. Our proposed method innovatively integrates structural fairness decoupling and global distribution alignment: decoupling channels sensitive to demographic groups at the model architectural level, and subsequently reducing the distance between the overall sample distribution and the distributions corresponding to each demographic group at the feature level. Experimental results demonstrate that, compared with other methods, our framework improves both inter-group and intra-group fairness while maintaining overall detection accuracy across domains.
