Product posters blend striking visuals with informative text to highlight the product and capture customer attention. However, crafting appealing posters and manually optimizing them based on online performance is laborious and resource-consuming. To address this, we introduce AutoPP, an automated p
Multimodal large language models (LMMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities across diverse vision-language tasks, including image captioning, visual question answering, and text-image retrieval. However, their computational complexity and memory footprint, particularly in the key-value (KV) ca
Performance predictors have emerged as a promising method to accelerate the evaluation stage of neural architecture search (NAS). These predictors estimate the performance of unseen architectures by learning from the correlation between a small set of trained architectures and their performance. How…
Evaluation is a critical but costly procedure in neural architecture search (NAS). Performance predictors have been widely adopted to reduce evaluation costs by directly estimating architecture performance. The effectiveness of predictors is heavily influenced by the choice of loss functions. While…
Deep multi-modal clustering can extract useful information among modals, thus benefiting the final clustering and many related fields. However, existing multi-modal clustering methods have two major limitations. First, they often ignore different levels of guiding information from both the feature r…
Evolutionary neural architecture search (ENAS) is a key part of evolutionary machine learning, which commonly utilizes evolutionary algorithms (EAs) to automatically design high-performing deep neural architectures. During past years, various ENAS methods have been proposed with exceptional performa…
Fast adversarial training (FAT) has been considered as one of the most effective alternatives to the computationally-intensive adversarial training. Generally, FAT methods pay equal attention to each sample of the target task. However, the distance between each sample and the decision boundary is di…
Deep neural networks (DNNs) easily cause security issues due to the lack of adversarial robustness. An emerging research topic for this problem is to design adversarially robust architectures via neural architecture search (NAS), i.e., robust NAS. However, robust NAS needs to train numerous DNNs for…
With the appearance of super high-resolution (e.g., gigapixel-level) images, performing efficient object detection on such images becomes an important issue. Most existing works for efficient object detection on high-resolution images focus on generating local patches where objects may exist, and th…
