Who is Atiqa Mir? 11-year-old racing star creates history in Greece
When India's national anthem played in Greece, 11-year-old Atiqa Mir knew every sacrifice was worth it. At just 11, Atiqa Mir is already living a moment that many athletes spend decades dreaming about. The young karting star, whose family roots trace back to Jammu and Kashmir, delivered the biggest performance of her career in Thessaloniki, Greece.
Overview of the EReL@MIR 2025 Multimodal Document Retrieval Challenge (Track 1)
Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval over visually-rich documents, pages that interleave text with figures, tables, and charts, is essential for multimodal retrieval-augmented generation, yet most retrievers still discard the visual channel. The \emph{Multimodal Document Retrieval Challenge}, Track~1 of the MIR Challenge at the first EReL@MIR workshop, co-located with The Web Conference 2025, asks participants to build a \emph{single} retrieval system that handles two complementary...
Mid-infrared single-pixel imaging at the single-photon level
arXiv:2605.30703v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Single-pixel cameras have recently emerged as promising alternatives to multi-pixel sensors due to reduced costs and superior durability, which are particularly attractive for mid-infrared (MIR) imaging pertinent to applications including industry inspection and biomedical diagnosis. To date, MIR single-pixel photon-sparse imaging has yet been realized, which urgently calls for high-sensitivity optical detectors and high-fidelity spatial...
High-speed mid-infrared single-photon upconversion spectrometer
arXiv:2605.30701v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sensitive and fast mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy is highly attractive in a variety of applications including astronomical observation, pharmaceutical synthesis, and environmental monitoring. However, the performance of conventional MIR spectrometers has long been hindered by the limited sensitivity of narrow-bandgap detectors and/or the deficient brightness of broadband light sources. Here, we devise and implement an ultra-sensitive and...
Mid-infrared single-photon 3D imaging
arXiv:2605.30702v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Active mid-infrared (MIR) imagers capable of retrieving three-dimensional (3D) structure and reflectivity information are highly attractive in a wide range of biomedical and industrial applications. However, the infrared 3D imaging at low-light levels is still challenging due to the deficiency of sensitive and fast MIR sensors.
Electron-wave-stimulated mid-infrared emission from graphene-substrate quantum oscillators
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Generating tunable, high-intensity mid-infrared (MIR) to terahertz (THz) radiation on-chip remains a formidable challenge due to the rigid spectral limits of conventional thermal emitters. While graphene has emerged as a promising platform for light-matter interaction, active control of its radiative properties has been largely confined to surface-limited phenomena mostly associated with plasmons. Here, we introduce a new MIR radiation platform where...
Highly sensitive detection for infrared photons by non-degenerate two-photon absorption under mid-infrared pumping
arXiv:2606.03208v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We have demonstrated highly-sensitive photon counting in the infrared based on the two-photon absorption (2PA) in a silicon avalanche photodiode, where the required photon energy for inducing effective conductivity was provided by an intense mid-infrared (MIR) field at 3 $\mu$m. The used MIR pumping scheme could not only benefit from the enhanced 2PA coefficient in the non-degenerate regime, but also eliminate the detrimental background noises...
Mid-Infrared Single-Photon Edge Enhanced Imaging based on Nonlinear Vortex Filtering
Announce Type: new Abstract: Edge enhanced imaging via the spiral phase contrast enables to reveal the phase or amplitude gradients of a target, which has been proved useful in feature recognition, machine vision, and object identification. A long quest is to extend the operation wavelength into the mid-infrared (MIR) region, as highly demanded in various fields including infrared sensing, astronomic observation, and biomedical diagnosis.
PoK man caught in Uri, cops suspect affair
An intruder from Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) was caught crossing the LoC in north Kashmir’s Uri sector, the Army said Sunday as unconfirmed reports and a social media video suggested the sneak-in was driven by a love affair with a local woman. Sources said the man was identified as Zeeshan Ahmad Mir, 22, a resident of Painkadi village in PoK’s Muzaffarabad district. He was caught late Saturday as he entered through the Haji Peer range in Uri’s Silikote area.
TempRet: Temporal Enhancement and Two-Stage Reranking for CVPR 2026 EPIC-KITCHENS-100 Multi-Instance Retrieval Challenge
arXiv:2605.24470v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Video-text retrieval has witnessed remarkable progress driven by large-scale vision-language pretraining, yet most existing approaches inherit an implicit assumption from image-text retrieval: that visual semantics can be captured frame-by-frame. This assumption overlooks the temporal dynamics of egocentric videos. The EPIC-KITCHENS-100 Multi-Instance Retrieval (MIR) challenge further raises the bar by providing soft-label relevance...
