Action-Aligned Retrieval with Pairwise Multimodal Reranking for Text-Based Person Anomaly Search
Text-based person anomaly search requires distinguishing individuals based on fine-grained, context-dependent behaviors rather than mere appearance. Existing methods struggle to capture these context-conditioned actions, frequently relying on isolated skeletal geometry, discarding raw query details during reformulation, or utilizing absolute pointwise scoring for multimodal verification. To address these limitations, we propose \textbf{ActPair}, a unified three-stage coarse-to-fine framework that combines action-aligned retrieval with pairwise multimodal reranking to bridge the pose-semantic g
