Variation-Bounded Loss for Noise-Tolerant Learning

AAAI 2026technical

Mitigating the negative impact of noisy labels has been a perennial issue in supervised learning. Robust loss functions have emerged as a prevalent solution to this problem. In this work, we introduce the Variation Ratio as a novel property related to the robustness of loss functions, and propose a

Joint Asymmetric Loss for Learning with Noisy Labels

ICCV 2025poster

Learning with noisy labels is a crucial task for training accurate deep neural networks. To mitigate label noise, prior studies have proposed various robust loss functions, particularly symmetric losses. Nevertheless, symmetric losses usually suffer from the underfitting issue due to the overly stri…

Spatial Annealing for Efficient Few-shot Neural Rendering

AAAI 2025technical

Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) with hybrid representations have shown impressive capabilities for novel view synthesis, delivering high efficiency. Nonetheless, their performance significantly drops with sparse input views. Various regularization strategies have been devised to address these challeng…

$\epsilon$-Softmax: Approximating One-Hot Vectors for Mitigating Label Noise

NeurIPS 2024poster

Noisy labels pose a common challenge for training accurate deep neural networks. To mitigate label noise, prior studies have proposed various robust loss functions to achieve noise tolerance in the presence of label noise, particularly symmetric losses. However, they usually suffer from the underfit…

Zero-Mean Regularized Spectral Contrastive Learning: Implicitly Mitigating Wrong Connections in Positive-Pair Graphs

ICLR 2024poster

Contrastive learning has emerged as a popular paradigm of self-supervised learning that learns representations by encouraging representations of positive pairs to be similar while representations of negative pairs to be far apart. The spectral contrastive loss, in synergy with the notion of positive…

Prototype-Anchored Learning for Learning with Imperfect Annotations

ICML 2022spotlight

The success of deep neural networks greatly relies on the availability of large amounts of high-quality annotated data, which however are difficult or expensive to obtain. The resulting labels may be class imbalanced, noisy or human biased. It is challenging to learn unbiased classification models f…

Shadows Can Be Dangerous: Stealthy and Effective Physical-World Adversarial Attack by Natural Phenomenon

CVPR 2022poster

Estimating the risk level of adversarial examples is essential for safely deploying machine learning models in the real world. One popular approach for physical-world attacks is to adopt the "sticker-pasting" strategy, which however suffers from some limitations, including difficulties in access to…

Learning With Noisy Labels via Sparse Regularization

ICCV 2021poster

Learning with noisy labels is an important and challenging task for training accurate deep neural networks. However, some commonly-used loss functions, such as Cross Entropy (CE), always suffer from severe overfitting to noisy labels. Although robust loss functions have been designed, they often enc…

ADRN: Attention-Based Deep Residual Network for Hyperspectral Image Denoising

ICASSP 2020accepted

Hyperspectral image (HSI) denoising is of crucial importance for many subsequent applications, such as HSI classification and interpretation. In this paper, we propose an attention-based deep residual network to directly learn a mapping from noisy HSI to the clean one. To jointly utilize the spatial…

Parsing Map Guided Multi-Scale Attention Network For Face Hallucination

ICASSP 2020accepted

Face hallucination that aims to transform a low-resolution (LR) face image to a high-resolution (HR) one is an active domain-specific image super-resolution problem. The performance of existing methods is usually not satisfactory, especially when the upscaling factor is large, such as 8×. In this pa…
