Diffusion models have demonstrated powerful capability as a versatilist for dense vision tasks, yet the generalization ability to unseen domains remains rarely explored. This paper presents HarDiff, an efficient frequency learning scheme, so as to advance generalizable paradigms for diffusion based…
Task automation has been greatly empowered by the recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) via Python code, where the tasks range from software engineering development to general-purpose reasoning. While current benchmarks have shown that LLMs can solve tasks using programs like human develop…
Model NLP models are commonly trained (or fine-tuned) on datasets from untrusted platforms like HuggingFace, posing significant risks of data poisoning attacks. A practical yet underexplored challenge arises when such backdoors are discovered after model deployment, making retraining-required defens
Domain generalization aims to learn a representation from the source domain, which can be generalized to arbitrary unseen target domains. A fundamental challenge for visual domain generalization is the domain gap caused by the dramatic style variation whereas the image content is stable. The realm…
Image restoration is a fundamental task in computer vision and machine learning, which learns a mapping between the clear images and the degraded images under various conditions (e.g., blur, low-light, haze). Yet, most existing image restoration methods are highly restricted by the requirement of de…
Fine-grained domain generalization (FGDG) aims to learn a fine-grained representation that can be well generalized to unseen target domains when only trained on the source domain data. Compared with generic domain generalization, FGDG is particularly challenging in that the fine-grained category can…
Domain generalization aims to train models that perform robustly on unseen target domains without access to target data. The realm of vision-language foundation model has opened a new venue owing to its inherent out-of-distribution generalization capability. However, the static alignment to class-l…
Night-time scene segmentation is a critical yet challenging task in the real-world applications, primarily due to the complicated lighting conditions. However, existing methods lack sufficient generalization ability to unseen nigh-time scenes with varying illumination.In light of this issue, we focu…
Recent studies emphasize that manually ensuring a consistent response style and maintaining high data quality in training sets can significantly improve the performance of fine-tuned Large Language Models (LLMs) while reducing the number of training examples needed. However, the precise definition o…
Machine learning models have made incredible progress, but they still struggle when applied to examples from unseen domains. This study focuses on a specific problem of domain generalization, where a model is trained on one source domain and tested on multiple target domains that are unseen during t…
The emerging vision foundation model (VFM) has inherited the ability to generalize to unseen images. Nevertheless, the key challenge of domain-generalized semantic segmentation (DGSS) lies in the domain gap attributed to the cross-domain styles, i.e., the variance of urban landscape and environment…
Norm violations occur when individuals fail to conform to culturally accepted behaviors, which may lead to potential conflicts. Remediating norm violations requires social awareness and cultural sensitivity of the nuances at play. To equip interactive AI systems with a remediation ability, we offer…
Disease grading is a crucial task in medical image analysis. Due to the continuous progression of diseases, i.e., the variability within the same level and the similarity between adjacent stages, accurate grading is highly challenging. Furthermore, in real-world scenarios, models trained on limited…
In the current landscape of pervasive smartphones and tablets, apps frequently exist across both platforms. Although apps share most graphic user interfaces (GUIs) and functionalities across phones and tablets, developers often rebuild from scratch for tablet versions, escalating costs and squanderi…
Existing neural methods have shown great potentials towards generating informative text from structured tabular data as well as maintaining high content fidelity. However, few of them shed light on generating personalized expressions, which often requires well-aligned persona-table-text datasets tha…
Knowledge data are massive and widespread in the real-world, which can serve as good external sources to enrich conversations. However, in knowledge-grounded conversations, current models still lack the fine-grained control over knowledge selection and integration with dialogues, which finally leads…
Knowledge-grounded dialogue generation has achieved promising performance with the engagement of external knowledge sources. Typical approaches towards this task usually perform relatively independent two sub-tasks, i.e., knowledge selection and knowledge-aware response generation. In this paper, in…
Open-domain multi-turn conversations mainly have three features, which are hierarchical semantic structure, redundant information, and long-term dependency. Grounded on these, selecting relevant context becomes a challenge step for multiturn dialogue generation. However, existing methods cannot diff…
In product description generation (PDG), the user-cared aspect is critical for the recommendation system, which can not only improve user's experiences but also obtain more clicks. High-quality customer reviews can be considered as an ideal source to mine user-cared aspects. However, in reality, a l…
