Code to Think, Think to Code: A Survey on Code-Enhanced Reasoning and Reasoning-Driven Code Intelligence in LLMs

EMNLP 2025

Code and reasoning recently exhibit a mutually reinforcing relationship in large language models (LLMs): Code is abstract, modular, highly structured and has strong logic, guiding reasoning in training and inference. While reasoning translates high-level goals into small executable steps, enable mor

DeFine: Decision-Making with Analogical Reasoning over Factor Profiles

ACL 2025finding

LLMs are ideal for decision-making thanks to their ability to reason over long contexts. However, challenges arise when processing speech transcripts that describe complex scenarios, as they are verbose and include repetition, hedging, and vagueness. E.g., during a company’s earnings call, an execut…

On Path to Multimodal Generalist: General-Level and General-Bench

ICML 2025oral

The Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) is currently experiencing rapid growth, driven by the advanced capabilities of language-based LLMs. Unlike their specialist predecessors, existing MLLMs are evolving towards a Multimodal Generalist paradigm. Initially limited to understanding multiple mod…

FineMatch: Aspect-based Fine-grained Image and Text Mismatch Detection and Correction

ECCV 2024poster

"Recent progress in large-scale pre-training has led to the development of advanced vision-language models (VLMs) with remarkable proficiency in comprehending and generating multimodal content. Despite the impressive ability to perform complex reasoning for VLMs, current models often struggle to eff…

Cross Contrasting Feature Perturbation for Domain Generalization

ICCV 2023poster

Domain generalization (DG) aims to learn a robust model from source domains that generalize well on unseen target domains. Recent studies focus on generating novel domain samples or features to diversify distributions complementary to source domains. Yet, these approaches can hardly deal with the re…

Feature Alignment and Uniformity for Test Time Adaptation

CVPR 2023poster

Test time adaptation (TTA) aims to adapt deep neural networks when receiving out of distribution test domain samples. In this setting, the model can only access online unlabeled test samples and pre-trained models on the training domains. We first address TTA as a feature revision problem due to the…

Prototype Knowledge Distillation for Medical Segmentation with Missing Modality

ICASSP 2023accepted

Multi-modality medical imaging is crucial in clinical treatment as it can provide complementary information for medical image segmentation. However, collecting multi-modal data in clinical is difficult due to the limitation of the scan time and other clinical situations. As such, it is clinically me…

Rethinking Alignment and Uniformity in Unsupervised Image Semantic Segmentation

AAAI 2023technical

Unsupervised image segmentation aims to match low-level visual features with semantic-level representations without outer supervision. In this paper, we address the critical properties from the view of feature alignments and feature uniformity for UISS models. We also make a comparison between UISS…

TransVLAD: Focusing on Locally Aggregated Descriptors for Few-Shot Learning

ECCV 2022poster

"This paper presents a transformer framework for few-shot learning, termed TransVLAD, with one focus showing the power of locally aggregated descriptors for few-shot learning. Our TransVLAD model is simple: a standard transformer encoder following a NeXtVLAD aggregation module to output the locally…
