Infant pose and shape estimation is essential for applications in childcare, developmental monitoring, and medical diagnosis. However, existing methods and datasets are largely designed for adults, and direct transfer to infants fails due to substantial differences in body proportions, articulation limits, and frequent self-occlusion. To address this gap, we introduce InfantNet, the largest real-image infant dataset to date, comprising 108,902 RGB images of infants aged 6-18 months. Each image is annotated with 2D keypoints, and a curated subset of 11,642 images additionally includes 3D pose and shape annotations with full SMIL parameters, verified through multi-view rendering and reprojection-error filtering. We use an iterative annotation pipeline to ensure high fidelity across both 2D and 3D labels. InfantNet establishes a large-scale, comprehensive benchmark for infant 2D keypoint detection and 3D pose-and-shape recovery. Baseline experiments demonstrate that state-of-the-art adult pose estimators do not generalize well to infants, whereas fine-tuning on InfantNet yields a consistent improvement. The gains are even more pronounced for 3D pose and shape estimation, where SMIL-based estimation demonstrates robust performance with accuracy comparable to results reported for SMPL-based models. By releasing the InfantNet dataset and benchmark, we provide a vital resource for advancing infant pose analysis and related healthcare applications.

Large Language Models enhanced with Retrieval Augmented Generation show strong potential in knowledge intensive tasks. However, they often encounter knowledge conflicts, where retrieved information contradicts the model’s internal knowledge or exhibits internal inconsistencies. Existing methods treat this as a simplistic binary choice, forcing models to blindly trust external contexts or rigidly rely on memory, resulting in unreliable predictions that swing between sycophancy and stubbornness. We argue that a more principled approach is to embrace contradictions as opportunities for deeper reasoning. To this end, we introduce Debate-of-Thoughts (DoT), a framework that transforms conflict resolution into an active deliberation process. DoT guides a single model through three phases: 1) hypothesis generation, which forms competing perspectives; 2) internal debate, where the model acts as both a proponent and a critic to stress test each view; and 3) adjudication, where a judge module evaluates arguments based on evidence and logical consistency. We implement DoT via two complementary strategies: inference time prompt chaining and supervised fine tuning. Experiments across multiple conflict benchmarks show that DoT consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods, while generating transparent debate transcripts that explain its decisions. By improving both accuracy and interpretability under knowledge conflicts, DoT establishes a more reliable paradigm for retrieval augmented generation systems.
