Clipping Low-Probability Tokens in SFT Yields a Generalizable Initialization for RL

ICML 2026poster

Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) is a critical step for adapting Large Language Models (LLMs) to specialized domains, often serving as an initialization for subsequent reinforcement learning (RL). However, SFT can overfit a small set of expert data, harming generalization and eroding prior knowledge. Th…

Out of Sight, Out of Track: Adversarial Attacks on Propagation-based Multi-Object Trackers via Query State Manipulation

CVPR 2026

Recent Tracking-by-Query-Propagation (TBP) methods have advanced Multi-Object Tracking (MOT) by enabling end-to-end (E2E) pipelines with long-range temporal modeling. However, this reliance on query propagation introduces unexplored architectural vulnerabilities to adversarial attacks. We present FA

Spiral RoPE: Rotate Your Rotary Positional Embeddings in the 2D Plane

ICML 2026poster

Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE) is the de facto positional encoding in large language models due to its ability to encode relative positions and support length extrapolation. When adapted to vision transformers, the standard axial formulation decomposes two-dimensional spatial positions into horizo…

Efficient Fine-Grained Guidance for Diffusion Model Based Symbolic Music Generation

ICML 2025poster

Developing generative models to create or conditionally create symbolic music presents unique challenges due to the combination of limited data availability and the need for high precision in note pitch. To address these challenges, we introduce an efficient Fine-Grained Guidance (FGG) approach with…

Every SAM Drop Counts: Embracing Semantic Priors for Multi-Modality Image Fusion and Beyond

CVPR 2025poster

Multi-modality image fusion, particularly infrared and visible, plays a crucial role in integrating diverse modalities to enhance scene understanding. Although early research prioritized visual quality, preserving fine details and adapting to downstream tasks remains challenging. Recent approaches a…

GeAR: Generation Augmented Retrieval

ACL 2025finding

Document retrieval techniques are essential for developing large-scale information systems. The common approach involves using a bi-encoder to compute the semantic similarity between a query and documents. However, the scalar similarity often fail to reflect enough information, hindering the interpr…

MAIN: Mutual Alignment Is Necessary for instruction tuning

EMNLP 2025

Instruction tuning has empowered large language models (LLMs) to achieve remarkable performance, yet its success heavily depends on the availability of large-scale, high-quality instruction-response pairs. To meet this demand, various methods have been developed to synthesize data at scale. However,

Se2: Sequential Example Selection for In-Context Learning

ACL 2024findings

The remarkable capability of large language models(LLMs) for in-context learning(ICL) needs to be activated by demonstration examples. Prior work has extensively explored the selection of examples for ICL, predominantly following the “select then organize” paradigm, such approaches often neglect the…

Treemil: A Multi-Instance Learning Framework for Time Series Anomaly Detection with Inexact Supervision

ICASSP 2024accepted

Time series anomaly detection (TSAD) plays a vital role in various domains such as healthcare, networks and industry. Considering labels are crucial for detection but difficult to obtain, we turn to TSAD with inexact supervision: only series-level labels are provided during the training phase, while…

Detecting Multivariate Time Series Anomalies with Zero Known Label

AAAI 2023technical

Multivariate time series anomaly detection has been extensively studied under the one-class classification setting, where a training dataset with all normal instances is required. However, preparing such a dataset is very laborious since each single data instance should be fully guaranteed to be nor…

InstanT: Semi-supervised Learning with Instance-dependent Thresholds

NeurIPS 2023poster

Semi-supervised learning (SSL) has been a fundamental challenge in machine learning for decades. The primary family of SSL algorithms, known as pseudo-labeling, involves assigning pseudo-labels to confident unlabeled instances and incorporating them into the training set. Therefore, the selection cr…
