Recent visual autoregressive (AR) models have shown promising capabilities in text-to-image generation, operating in a manner similar to large language models. While test-time computation scaling yields higher-quality outputs on challenging natural language tasks, its adaptation to visual AR models
As diffusion model-based services expand across various domains, safeguarding client data privacy has become increasingly critical. While fully homomorphic encryption and secure multi-party computation enable privacy-preserving inference, their high computational overhead poses challenges for large-…
Exemplar-based semantic image synthesis generates images aligned with semantic content while preserving the appearance of an exemplar. Conventional structure-guidance models like ControlNet, are limited as they rely solely on text prompts to control appearance and cannot utilize exemplar images as i…
Visual agent models for automating human activities on Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) have emerged as a promising research direction, driven by advances in large Vision Language Models (VLMs). A critical challenge in GUI automation is the precise grounding of interface elements across diverse plat…
Recent advancements in graph neural networks (GNNs) have highlighted the critical need of calibrating model predictions, with neighborhood prediction similarity recognized as a pivotal component. Existing studies suggest that nodes with analogous neighborhood prediction similarity often exhibit simi…
Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) generate contextually relevant responses by jointly interpreting visual and textual inputs. However, our finding reveals they often mistakenly perceive text inputs lacking visual evidence as being part of the image, leading to erroneous responses. In light of thi
Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) have shown remarkable performance in learning 3D scenes. However, NeRF exhibits vulnerability when confronted with distractors in the training images -- unexpected objects are present only within specific views, such as moving entities like pedestrians or birds. Excludi…
Understanding point clouds captured from the real-world is challenging due to shifts in data distribution caused by varying object scales, sensor angles, and self-occlusion. Prior works have addressed this issue by combining recent learning principles such as self-supervised learning, self-training…
A cut-and-paste type of data augmentation strategy has attracted considerable attention in the vision community due to its simplicity and effectiveness in improving generalization performance. However, it is challenging for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) tasks to apply this type of augmentation…
Graph-structured datasets usually have irregular graph sizes and connectivities, rendering the use of recent data augmentation techniques, such as Mixup, difficult. To tackle this challenge, we present the first Mixup-like graph augmentation method called Graph Transplant, which mixes irregular grap…
In many real-world node classification scenarios, nodes are highly class-imbalanced, where graph neural networks (GNNs) can be readily biased to major class instances. Albeit existing class imbalance approaches in other domains can alleviate this issue to some extent, they do not consider the impact…
The Mixup scheme suggests mixing a pair of samples to create an augmented training sample and has gained considerable attention recently for improving the generalizability of neural networks. A straightforward and widely used extension of Mixup is to combine with regional dropout-like methods: remov…
Learning unbiased node representations under class-imbalanced graph data is challenging due to interactions between adjacent nodes. Existing studies have in common that they compensate the minor class nodes ‘as a group’ according to their overall quantity (ignoring node connections in graph), which…
