Multimodal fusion is commonly implemented via symmetric token interaction, implicitly allowing information to flow in both directions. Under *modality imbalance*---when an auxiliary stream is substantially noisier than a designated primary stream---such symmetry creates a *backflow channel* that inj…
Click-through rate (CTR) prediction is crucial for recommendation systems and online advertising, relying heavily on effective user behavior modeling. While existing methods separately refine long-term and short-term interest representations, the fusion of these behaviors remains a critical yet unde…
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved significant advancements in click-through rate (CTR) prediction by demonstrating strong generalization on training data. However, in real-world scenarios, the assumption of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) conditions, which is fundamental to…
Pedestrian trajectory prediction is of great importance for downstream tasks, such as autonomous driving and mobile robot navigation. Realistic models of the social interactions within the crowd is crucial for accurate pedestrian trajectory prediction. However, most existing methods do not capture g…
Pedestrian trajectory prediction is a critical yet challenging task especially for crowded scenes. We suggest that introducing an attention mechanism to infer the importance of different neighbors is critical for accurate trajectory prediction in scenes with varying crowd size. In this work, we prop…
Safe and efficient crowd navigation for mobile robot is a crucial yet challenging task. Previous work has shown the power of deep reinforcement learning frameworks to train efficient policies. However, their performance deteriorates when the crowd size grows. We suggest that this can be addressed by
Imitation learning by behavioral cloning is a prevalent method that has achieved some success in vision-based autonomous driving. The basic idea behind behavioral cloning is to have the neural network learn from observing a human expert's behavior. Typically, a convolutional neural network learns to…
End-to-end visual-based imitation learning has been widely applied in autonomous driving. When deploying the trained visual-based driving policy, a deterministic command is usually directly applied without considering the uncertainty of the input data. Such kind of policies may bring dramatical dama…
