Omnimodal large language models (OmniLLMs) have attracted increasing research attention of late towards unified audio-video understanding. However, the high computational cost of processing longer joint audio-video token sequences has become a key bottleneck. Existing token compression methods have
This paper proposes SR-KI, a novel approach for integrating real-time and large-scale structured knowledge bases (KBs) into large language models (LLMs). SR-KI begins by encoding KBs into key-value pairs using a pretrained encoder, and injects them into LLMs
The growing prevalence of tampered images poses serious security threats, highlighting the urgent need for reliable detection methods. Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) demonstrate strong potential in analyzing tampered images and generating interpretations. However, they still struggle with
We present a general optimization-based framework for depth-preserving normal integration. Unlike existing methods that operate on surface orientations defined over regular grids, our approach introduces a unified graph-based formulation capable of integrating semi-differentiable surfaces on unstruc
Hyperspectral imaging plays a critical role in numerous scientific and industrial fields. Conventional hyperspectral imaging systems often struggle with the trade-off between capture speed, spectral resolution, and bandwidth, particularly in dynamic environments. In this work, we present a novel eve…
Document-level Relation Extraction (DocRE) aims to extract relations from documents. Compared with sentence-level relation extraction, it is necessary to extract long-distance dependencies. Existing methods enhance the output of trained DocRE models either by learning logical rules or by extracting…
Drawing inspiration from the ability of fish to maintain efficient swimming over a wide range of speeds by tuning the stiffness of their tails, researchers have explored stiffness adjustment mechanisms in fish-like robots. Typically, existing mechanisms require extra actuators or power sources only
Simultaneously acquisition of the surface normal and reflectance parameters is a crucial but challenging technique in the field of computer vision and graphics. It requires capturing multiple high dynamic range (HDR) images in existing methods using frame-based cameras. In this paper, we propose Eve…
We present EventUPS, the first uncalibrated photometric stereo (UPS) method using an event camera--a neuromorphic sensor that asynchronously detects brightness changes with microsecond resolution. Traditional frame-based UPS methods are hindered by high bandwidth demands and limited use in dynamic s…
Existing key-value (KV) cache compression methods typically rely on heuristics, such as uniform cache allocation across layers or static eviction policies, however, they ignore the critical interplays among layer-specific feature patterns and task performance, which can lead to degraded generalizati
LLMs have shown impressive progress in natural language processing. However, they still face significant challenges in TableQA, where real-world complexities such as diverse table structures, multilingual data, and domain-specific reasoning are crucial. Existing TableQA benchmarks are often limited
Photometric stereo is a well-established technique to estimate the surface normal of an object. However the requirement of capturing multiple high dynamic range images under different illumination conditions limits the speed and real-time applications. This paper introduces EventPS a novel approach…
Event cameras with their high temporal resolution dynamic range and low power consumption are particularly good at time-sensitive applications like deblurring and frame interpolation. However their performance is hindered by latency variability especially under low-light conditions and with fast-mov…
Unlike other data modalities such as text and vision, speech does not lend itself to easy interpretation. While lay people can understand how to describe an image or sentence via perception, non-expert descriptions of speech often end at high-level demographic information, such as gender or age. In…
Illumination planning in photometric stereo aims to find a balance between tween surface normal estimation accuracy and image capturing efficiency by selecting optimal light configurations. It depends on factors such as the unknown shape and general reflectance of the target object, global illuminat…
