DISCO: Mitigating Bias in Deep Learning with Conditional Distance Correlation

ICML 2026oral

Dataset bias often leads deep learning models to exploit spurious correlations instead of task-relevant signals. We introduce the Standard Anti-Causal Model (SAM), a unifying causal framework that characterizes bias mechanisms and yields a conditional independence criterion for causal stability. Bui…

SIC: Similarity-Based Interpretable Image Classification with Neural Networks

ICCV 2025poster

The deployment of deep learning models in critical domains necessitates a balance between high accuracy and interpretability.We introduce SIC, an inherently interpretable neural network that provides local and global explanations of its decision-making process.Leveraging the concept of case-based re…

H-ViT: A Hierarchical Vision Transformer for Deformable Image Registration

CVPR 2024highlight

This paper introduces a novel top-down representation approach for deformable image registration which estimates the deformation field by capturing various short- and long-range flow features at different scale levels. As a Hierarchical Vision Transformer (H-ViT) we propose a dual self-attention and…

Keep the Faith: Faithful Explanations in Convolutional Neural Networks for Case-Based Reasoning

AAAI 2024technical

Explaining predictions of black-box neural networks is crucial when applied to decision-critical tasks. Thus, attribution maps are commonly used to identify important image regions, despite prior work showing that humans prefer explanations based on similar examples. To this end, ProtoPNet learns a…

Stable-Pose: Leveraging Transformers for Pose-Guided Text-to-Image Generation

NeurIPS 2024poster

Controllable text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models have shown impressive performance in generating high-quality visual content through the incorporation of various conditions. Current methods, however, exhibit limited performance when guided by skeleton human poses, especially in complex pose conditi…

RegBN: Batch Normalization of Multimodal Data with Regularization

NeurIPS 2023poster

Recent years have witnessed a surge of interest in integrating high-dimensional data captured by multisource sensors, driven by the impressive success of neural networks in integrating multimodal data. However, the integration of heterogeneous multimodal data poses a significant challenge, as confou…

Vox2Cortex: Fast Explicit Reconstruction of Cortical Surfaces From 3D MRI Scans With Geometric Deep Neural Networks

CVPR 2022poster

The reconstruction of cortical surfaces from brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans is essential for quantitative analyses of cortical thickness and sulcal morphology. Although traditional and deep learning-based algorithmic pipelines exist for this purpose, they have two major drawbacks: leng…
