This paper presents our winning submission to Subtask 2 of SemEval 2024 Task 3 on multimodal emotion cause analysis in conversations. We propose a novel Multimodal Emotion Recognition and Multimodal Emotion Cause Extraction (MER-MCE) framework that integrates text, audio, and visual modalities using specialized emotion encoders. Our approach sets itself apart from top-performing teams by leveraging modality-specific features for enhanced emotion understanding and causality inference. Experimental evaluation demonstrates the advantages of our multimodal approach, with our submission achieving a competitive weighted F1 score of 0.3435, ranking third with a margin of only 0.0339 behind the 1st team and 0.0025 behind the 2nd team.

This paper introduces MipSLAM, a frequency-aware 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) SLAM framework capable of high-fidelity anti-aliased novel view synthesis and robust pose estimation under varying camera configurations. Existing 3DGS-based SLAM systems often suffer from aliasing artifacts and trajectory drift due to inadequate filtering and purely spatial optimization. To overcome these limitations, we propose an Elliptical Adaptive Anti-aliasing (EAA) algorithm that approximates Gaussian contributions via geometry-aware numerical integration, avoiding costly analytic computation. Furthermore, we present a Spectral-Aware Pose Graph Optimization (SA-PGO) module that reformulates trajectory estimation in the frequency domain, effectively suppressing high-frequency noise and drift through graph Laplacian analysis. Extensive evaluations on Replica and TUM datasets demonstrate that MipSLAM achieves state-of-the-art rendering quality and localization accuracy across multiple resolutions.
