Automated laboratories hold the promise of accelerating scientific discovery, yet their deployment is bottlenecked by the difficulty of designing safe and executable environments. While simulator-based design offers scalability, existing 3D scene generation methods are primarily tailored for househo…
Reasoning-augmented machine learning systems have shown improved performance in various domains, including image generation. However, existing reasoning-based methods for image generation either restrict reasoning to a single modality (image or text) or rely on high-quality reasoning data for fine-t…
Despite the rapid progress of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs), the integration of visual modalities introduces new safety vulnerabilities that adversaries can exploit to elicit biased or malicious outputs. In this paper, we demonstrate an underexplored vulnerability via semantic slot filling, w
This paper proposes a lightweight decentralized solution for multi-robot coordinated navigation with cooperative perception. First, we introduce a rapid way to process sensory data, thus obtaining safe directions and key environmental features. Then, an information flow is created to facilitate real…
Uplift modeling has obtained significant attention, with broad applications in medicine, economics, and marketing. For example, in a push notification scenario, accurately estimating the uplift of different push frequencies on user activation and notification switch close rate is critical for balanc
Automated Claim Verification (CV)—the task of assessing a claim’s veracity against explicitly provided evidence—is a critical tool in the fight against growing misinformation. This survey offers a comprehensive analysis of 198 studies published between January 2022 and March 2025, synthesizing recen
Currently, leveraging large language models (LLMs) for autism intervention is a significant yet challenging task, particularly when directly employing LLMs as an intervention doctor. Researchers have mainly focused on using prompt engineering for role play as an intervention doctor and integrating a
The surge in AI-generated images, blending authentic and synthetic content, raises security concerns and complicates model attribution, especially with limited transparency. Existing methods either struggle to attribute across multiple frameworks or rely on additional conditions, such as textual des…
Identifying human morals and values embedded in language is essential to empirical studies of communication. However, researchers often face substantial difficulty navigating the diversity of theoretical frameworks and data available for their analysis. Here, we contribute MoVa, a well-documented su
Recovering missing modalities in multimodal learning has recently been approached using diffusion models to synthesize absent data conditioned on available modalities. However, existing methods often suffer from modality generation bias: while certain modalities are generated with high fidelity, oth…
Recent progress in large language models (LLMs) has marked a notable milestone in the field of artificial intelligence. The conventional evaluation of LLMs primarily relies on existing tasks and benchmarks, raising concerns about test set contamination and the genuine comprehension abilities of LLMs…
Collaborative path planning for robot swarms in complex, unknown environments without external positioning is a challenging problem. This requires robots to find safe directions based on real-time environmental observations, and to efficiently transfer and fuse these observations within the swarm. T…
Expert-level prompts, carefully engineered by human experts who have a deep understanding of both large language models (LLMs) and domain knowledge, are the future of prompting and pivotal to harnessing the full power of advanced LLMs. Discovering such prompts with an automated process remains a sou…
The value of roadside perception which could extend the boundaries of autonomous driving and traffic management has gradually become more prominent and acknowledged in recent years. However existing roadside perception approaches only focus on the single-infrastructure sensor system which cannot rea…
In many important machine learning applications, the standard assumption of having a globally Lipschitz continuous gradient may fail to hold. This paper delves into a more general (L0, L1)-smoothness setting, which gains particular significance within the realms of deep neural networks and distribut…
