<abstract>Large-scale integrity enforcement on short-form video platforms typically relies on multiple specialized vertical modules, each dedicated to a specific risk category. However, exhaustively executing these computationally intensive modules over massive content streams leads to substantial inference overhead, despite the fact that most content is benign and violations are usually confined to limited policy domains. To address this inefficiency, we propose RADAR, a lightweight risk-aware routing framework that selectively releases low-risk content while dispatching high-risk instances to appropriate vertical modules.
