Multi-Hop Fact Verification (MHFV) necessitates complex reasoning across disparate evidence, posing significant challenges for Large Language Models (LLMs) which often suffer from hallucinations and fractured logical chains. Existing methods, while improving transparency via Chain-of-Thought (CoT), …
Single-template-based brain functional network analysis methods can provide limited functional connectivity information, which constrains the performance of brain disease diagnosis. Previous works have explored multi-template functional network analysis but failed to integrate the high-order correla…
Model Inversion Attacks (MIAs) aim to reconstruct private training data from models, leading to privacy leakage, particularly in facial recognition systems. Although many studies have enhanced the effectiveness of white-box MIAs, less attention has been paid to improving efficiency and utility under…
Identifying cancer driver genes remains challenging due to the complexity of gene interactions in cancer genomics. Existing methods often face difficulties in integrating multidimensional biological data, which limits their ability to capture diverse gene relationships. GATOmics, a novel multi-omics…
The rapid growth of video platforms has transformed information dissemination and led to an explosion of multimedia content. However, this widespread reach also introduces risks, as some users exploit these platforms to spread hate speech, which is often concealed through complex rhetoric, making ha
Explaining the decisions of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) for medical images has become increasingly important. Existing attribution methods have difficulty explaining the meaning of pixels while existing concept-based methods are limited by additional annotations or specific model structures that are…
Map-free visual relocalization computes camera pose using only a query image and a reference image. Therefore, it is hindered by challenges in feature-point matching and the absence of scale information in monocular images. These issues may cause significant rotational and metric errors, leading to…
The image signal processing (ISP) pipeline is responsible for converting the RAW images collected from the sensor into high-quality RGB images. It contains a series of image processing modules and associated ISP hyperparameters. Recent learning-based approaches aim to automate ISP hyperparameter opt…
Accurate prediction of drug-target affinity plays a vital role in drug discovery and design. TriFP-NGram integrates multiple fingerprint and n-gram features to predict drug-target binding affinities. It surpasses current methods by leveraging a comprehensive set of molecular and protein features, en…
Split Learning (SL) is a distributed learning framework renowned for its privacy-preserving features and minimal computational requirements. Previous research consistently highlights the potential privacy breaches in SL systems by server adversaries reconstructing training data. However these studie…
"Due to the diversity of assessment requirements in various application scenarios for the IQA task, existing IQA methods struggle to directly adapt to these varied requirements after training. Thus, when facing new requirements, a typical approach is fine-tuning these models on datasets specifically…
Hardware image signal processing (ISP), aiming at converting RAW inputs to RGB images, consists of a series of processing blocks, each with multiple parameters. Traditionally, ISP parameters are manually tuned in isolation by imaging experts according to application-specific quality and performance…
Split Inference (SI) is an emerging deep learning paradigm that addresses computational constraints on edge devices and preserves data privacy through collaborative edge-cloud approaches. However, SI is vulnerable to Data Reconstruction Attacks (DRA), which aim to reconstruct users' private predicti…
The hardware image signal processing (ISP) pipeline is the intermediate layer between the imaging sensor and the downstream application, processing the sensor signal into an RGB image. The ISP is less programmable and consists of a series of processing modules. Each processing module handles a subta…
"Between the imaging sensor and the image applications, the hardware image signal processing (ISP) pipelines reconstruct an RGB image from the sensor signal and feed it into downstream tasks. The processing blocks in ISPs depend on a set of tunable hyperparameters that have a complex interaction wit…
The collaborative inference systems are designed to speed up the prediction processes in edge-cloud scenarios, where the local devices and the cloud system work together to run a complex deep-learning model. However, those edge-cloud collaborative inference systems are vulnerable to emerging reconst…
