MIDI-LLaMA: An Instruction-Following Multimodal LLM for Symbolic Music Understanding

ICASSP 2026poster

Recent advances in multimodal large language models (MLLM) for audio music have demonstrated strong capabilities in music understanding, yet symbolic music, a fundamental representation of musical structure, remains unexplored. In this work, we introduce MIDI-LLaMA, the first instruction-following M…

Beyond Perception: Evaluating Abstract Visual Reasoning through Multi-Stage Task

ACL 2025finding

Current Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) excel in general visual reasoning but remain underexplored in Abstract Visual Reasoning (AVR), which demands higher-order reasoning to identify abstract rules beyond simple perception. Existing AVR benchmarks focus on single-step reasoning, emphasizin…

DUAL: Learning Diverse Kernels for Aggregated Two-sample and Independence Testing

NeurIPS 2025poster

To adapt kernel two-sample and independence testing to complex structured data, aggregation of multiple kernels is frequently employed to boost testing power compared to single-kernel tests. However, we observe a phenomenon that directly maximizing multiple kernel-based statistics may result in high…

Planning-Driven Programming: A Large Language Model Programming Workflow

ACL 2025long

The strong performance of large language models (LLMs) raises extensive discussion on their application to code generation. Recent research suggests continuous program refinements through visible tests to improve code generation accuracy in LLMs. However, these methods suffer from LLMs’ inefficiency…

Generalized Planning for the Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus

AAAI 2024technical

The Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus (ARC) is a general artificial intelligence benchmark that poses difficulties for pure machine learning methods due to its requirement for fluid intelligence with a focus on reasoning and abstraction. In this work, we introduce an ARC solver, Generalized Planning…
