MIRAGE: A Micro-Interaction Relational Architecture for Grounded Exploration in Multi-Figure Artworks

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2604.23788v1 Announce Type: new Appreciating multi-figure paintings requires understanding how characters relate through subtle cues like gaze alignment, gesture, and spatial arrangement. We present MIRAGE, an evidence-centric framework designed to scaffold the exploration of these "micro-interactions" in multi-figure artworks. While such cues are essential for deep narrative appreciation, they are often distributed across complex scenes and difficult for viewers to systematically identify.
