Deep neural networks are often over-parameterized, resulting in prohibitive storage and computational costs. A fundamental question is whether a complex network can be re-expressed in terms of a compact set of basis functions without sacrificing accuracy. Motivated by this perspective, we aim to app
Score-based diffusion models demonstrate superior performance in generative tasks but encounter fundamental bottlenecks in inverse problems due to the analytical intractability of the time-dependent likelihood score. To bridge this gap, we propose a novel proximal-based generative modeling (PGM) fra…
Parameter sharing is a key model compression technique, yet existing methods overlook the geometric properties of the loss landscape, often causing severe accuracy degradation under high compression ratios. Inspired by second-order optimization, we propose Curvature-aware Graph Coloring (CGC), a cro…
Robotic manipulation of deformable linear objects (DLOs) presents significant challenges due to complex dynamics and frequent self-occlusions. Existing robotic knot tying methods typically rely on precise topological state tracking with ordered keypoints and explicit edge connectivity. This reliance…
Chance constrained programming (CCP) is a powerful framework for addressing optimization problems under uncertainty. In this paper, we introduce a novel Gradient-Guided Diffusion-based Optimization framework, termed GGDOpt, which tackles CCP through three key innovations. First, GGDOpt accommodates…
Recently, autonomous agents built on large language models (LLMs) have experienced significant development and are being deployed in real-world applications. Through the usage of tools, these systems can perform actions in the real world. Given the agents’ practical applications and ability to execu
3D spatial sound field synthesis takes the head-mounted audio signals and body poses as input and renders a 3D sound field around the center body, in which spatial audio can be inferred at any arbitrary position. To achieve this, a multi-modal system is required to spatialize input audio signals wit…
Test-time domain adaptation adjusts a source domain model to accommodate previously unseen domain shifts in a target domain during inference. In real-world scenarios, domain shifts continually evolve, and test data are often non-independent and identically distributed (non-i.i.d.). Existing methods…
Test-time adaptation (TTA) deals with domain shifts during inference by training models based on only unlabeled test samples. Test samples may include noisy samples, which degrade domain adaptation. Existing methods rely on the model's output prediction to detect and filter noisy samples, and furthe…
With the rapid advancement of large models, voice assistants are gradually acquiring the ability to engage in open-ended daily conversations with humans. However, current spoken dialogue systems often overlook multi-modal information in audio beyond text, such as speech rate, volume, emphasis, and b…
As automation technologies advance, the need for compact and multi-modal sensors in robotic applications is growing. To address this demand, we introduce CompdVision, a novel sensor that employs a compound-eye imaging system to combine near-field 3D visual and tactile sensing within a compact form f…
Effective utilization of large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, relies on the quality of input prompts. This paper explores prompt engineering, specifically focusing on the disparity between experimentally designed prompts and real-world “in-the-wild” prompts. We analyze 10,538 in-the-wild p…
This paper focuses on the problem of 3D human mesh recovery from videos. Most recent works mainly centered on human spatio-temporal modeling in the time domain, but these time-domain methods often concentrate on the short-range spatio-temporal receptive field and information transfer of the video, t…
Recovering 3D human mesh from videos has recently made significant progress. However, most of the existing methods focus on the temporal consistency of videos, while ignoring the spatial representation in complex scenes, thus failing to recover a reasonable and smooth human mesh sequence under extre…
