Reliable reasoning in Large Language Models (LLMs) is challenged by their propensity for hallucination. While augmenting LLMs with Knowledge Graphs (KGs) improves factual accuracy, existing KG-augmented methods fail to quantify epistemic uncertainty in both the retrieved evidence and LLMs' reasoning
Point cloud registration can be categorized into rigid and non-rigid settings depending on the motion characteristics of the underlying objects. Rigid alignment assumes a single global transformation under which corresponding points remain geometrically consistent across scales, whereas non-rigid al…
Diffusion models have achieved significant progress in image generation and the pre-trained Stable Diffusion (SD) models are helpful for image deblurring by providing clear image priors. However, directly using a blurry image or a pre-deblurred one as a conditional control for SD will either hinder…
Recent advancements in text-guided image editing have achieved notable success by leveraging natural language prompts for fine-grained semantic control. However, certain editing semantics are challenging to specify precisely using textual descriptions alone. A practical alternative involves learning…
Task-oriented dialogue systems have recently gained increasing attention due to their capability of using natural language to fulfill specific user demands, such as restaurant reservation and hotel booking. Recent works directly model task-oriented dialogue response as a text generation task. Howeve…
This paper investigates the group characteristics in multi-agent collaborative systems under adversarial attacks. Adversarial agents are tasked with generating counterfactual answers to a given collaborative problem, while collaborative agents normally interact with other agents to solve the given p
Recent advances in text-to-image models have enabled high-quality personalized image synthesis based on user-provided concepts with flexible textual control. In this work, we analyze the limitations of two primary techniques in text-to-image personalization: Textual Inversion and DreamBooth. When in…
Visual Word Sense Disambiguation (Visual-WSD), as a sub-task of fine-grained image-text retrieval, requires a high level of language-vision understanding to capture and exploit the nuanced relationships between text and visual features. However, the cross-linguistic background only with limited cont…
Word sense disambiguation (WSD) can be viewed as two subtasks: textual word sense disambiguation (Textual-WSD) and visual word sense disambiguation (Visual-WSD). They aim to identify the most semantically relevant senses or images to a given context containing ambiguous target words. However, existi…
We propose GeoGCN, a novel geometric dual-domain graph convolution network for point cloud denoising (PCD). Beyond the traditional wisdom of PCD, to fully exploit the geometric information of point clouds, we define two kinds of surface normals, one is called Real Normal (RN), and the other is Virtu…
Self-attention-based models have achieved remarkable progress in short-text mining. However, the quadratic computational complexities restrict their application in long text processing. Prior works have adopted the chunking strategy to divide long documents into chunks and stack a self-attention bac…
Pretrained language models such as BERT have been successfully applied to a wide range of natural language processing tasks and also achieved impressive performance in document reranking tasks. Recent works indicate that further pretraining the language models on the task-specific datasets before fi…
This paper looks at this intriguing question: are single images with their details lost during deraining, reversible to their artifact-free status? We propose an end-to-end detail-recovery image deraining network (termed a DRDNet) to solve the problem. Unlike existing image deraining approaches that…
In this paper, we propose a normal estimation method for unstructured point cloud. We observe that geometric estimators commonly focus more on feature preservation but are hard to tune parameters and sensitive to noise, while learning-based approaches pursue an overall normal estimation accuracy but…
