The LLM unlearning aims to eliminate the influence of undesirable data without affecting causally unrelated information. This process typically involves using a **forget set** to remove target information, alongside a **retain set** to maintain non-target capabilities. While recent localization-base…
Subject-Driven Text-to-Image (T2I) Generation aims to preserve a subject's identity while editing its context based on a text prompt. A core challenge in this task is the "similarity-controllability paradox", where enhancing textual control often degrades the subject's fidelity, and vice-versa. We a
Accurate segmentation of neural structures in Electron Microscopy (EM) images is paramount for neuroscience. However, this task is challenged by intricate morphologies, low signal-to-noise ratios, and scarce annotations, limiting the accuracy and generalization of existing methods. To address these
Modeling the interplay between external stimuli and internal neural representations is a pivotal research area for Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs). A major limitation of prior work is the prevailing paradigm of specialized, single-task models, which curtails versatility and neglects inter-task syne…
Circuit graph discovery has emerged as a fundamental approach to elucidating the skill mechanistic of language models. Despite the output faithfulness of circuit graphs, they suffer from atomic ablation, which causes the loss of causal dependencies between connected components. In addition, their di
Fine-grained classification via LLMs is susceptible to more complex label biases compared to traditional classification tasks. Existing bias mitigation strategies, such as retraining, post-hoc adjustment, and parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) are primarily effective for simple classification bi…
Accurate segmentation of neurons in electron microscopy (EM) images plays a crucial role in understanding the intricate wiring patterns of the brain. Existing automatic neuron segmentation methods rely on traditional clustering algorithms, where affinities are predicted first, and then watershed and…
Deep neural network (DNN)-based lipreading models have achieved excellent recognition accuracy but are currently facing challenges related to user privacy. To address this, we propose a novel hybrid quantum-classical neural network (HQCNN) for lipreading that balances superior performance with enhan…
Defocus deblurring is a challenging task due to the spatially varying blur. Recent works have shown impressive results in data-driven approaches using dual-pixel (DP) sensors. Quad-pixel (QP) sensors represent an advanced evolution of DP sensors, providing four distinct sub-aperture views in contras…
Large language models (LLMs) are widely recognized for their exceptional capacity to capture semantics meaning. Yet, there remains no established metric to quantify this capability. In this work, we introduce a quantitative metric, Information Emergence (IE), designed to measure LLMs’ ability to ext…
Circuit discovery has gradually become one of the prominent methods for mechanistic interpretability, and research on circuit completeness has also garnered increasing attention. Methods of circuit discovery that do not guarantee completeness not only result in circuits that are not fixed across dif…
Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) positioning can be significantly degraded due to multipath and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) signals in urban areas. Cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) technology provides new opportunities to enhance GNSS performance from a single intelligent vehicle by leve
Advanced Audio-Visual Speech Recognition (AVSR) systems have been observed to be sensitive to missing video frames performing even worse than single-modality models. While applying the common dropout techniques to the video modality enhances robustness to missing frames it simultaneously results in…
Compositional Zero-Shot Learning (CZSL) aims to recognize unseen attribute-object pairs based on a limited set of observed examples. Current CZSL methodologies despite their advancements tend to neglect the distinct specificity levels present in attributes. For instance given images of sliced strawb…
In multi-speaker scenarios, automatic speech recognition (ASR) models rely on pre-processed audio after speaker separation. However, when the target speaker is not accurately separated, ASR models face limitations in reaching their peak performance. To address this issue, we propose a speaker-adapti…
Previous Multimodal Information based Speech Processing (MISP) challenges mainly focused on audio-visual speech recognition (AVSR) with commendable success. However, the most advanced back-end recognition systems often hit performance limits due to the complex acoustic environments. This has prompte…
