Constructive Distortion: Improving MLLMs with Attention-Guided Image Warping

ICLR 2026poster

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) often miss small details and spatial relations in cluttered scenes, leading to errors in fine-grained perceptual grounding. We introduce AttWarp, a lightweight method that allocates more resolution to query-relevant content while compressing less informative…

ASTrA: Adversarial Self-supervised Training with Adaptive-Attacks

ICLR 2025poster

Existing self-supervised adversarial training (self-AT) methods rely on hand-crafted adversarial attack strategies for PGD attacks, which fail to adapt to the evolving learning dynamics of the model and do not account for instance-specific characteristics of images. This results in sub-optimal adver…

BloomCoreset: Fast Coreset Sampling using Bloom Filters for Fine-Grained Self-Supervised Learning

ICASSP 2025accepted

The success of deep learning in supervised fine-grained recognition for domain-specific tasks relies heavily on expert annotations. The Open-Set for fine-grained Self-Supervised Learning (SSL) problem aims to enhance performance on downstream tasks by strategically sampling a subset of images (the C…
