Multimodal Dataset Distillation (MDD) has emerged as a vital paradigm for enabling efficient training of vision-language models (VLMs) in the era of multimodal data proliferation. Unlike traditional dataset distillation methods that focus on single-modal tasks, MDD presents distinct challenges: (i)…
Open-set fine-grained retrieval (OSFR) is a challenging task where models must generalize to unseen subcategories. Existing methods often fail this, as they embed category-specific semantics from closed-set training labels. Recently, diffusion transformers (DiT) have shown promise by encoding attrib
Despite significant progress in text-to-video generation, current models still suffer from unrealistic dynamics, temporal inconsistency, and unstable semantic alignment. Existing preference alignment approaches rely on costly and often ambiguous human or VLM-based video preference annotation, which
Recent advancements in large language models (LLMs) and agentic systems have shown exceptional decision-making capabilities, revealing significant potential for autonomic finance. Current financial trading agents predominantly simulate anthropomorphic roles that inadvertently introduce emotional bia…
In this paper, we present ***FaceShot***, a novel training-free portrait animation framework designed to bring any character into life from any driven video without fine-tuning or retraining. We achieve this by offering precise and robust reposed landmark sequences from an appearance-guided landmark…
Recent advances in conditional diffusion models have shown promise for generating realistic TalkingFace videos, yet challenges persist in achieving consistent head movement, synchronized facial expressions, and accurate lip synchronization over extended generations. To address these, we introduce th…
Existing text-to-video methods struggle to transfer motion smoothly from a reference object to a target object with significant differences in appearance or structure between them. To address this challenge, we introduce MotionShot, a training-free framework capable of parsing reference-target corre…
Unified vision-language models (VLMs) have recently shown remarkable progress, enabling a single model to flexibly address diverse tasks through different instructions within a shared computational architecture. This instruction-based control mechanism creates unique security challenges, as adversar…
Dataset distillation (DD) condenses key information from large-scale datasets into smaller synthetic datasets, reducing storage and computational costs for training networks. However, recent research has primarily focused on image classification tasks, with limited expansion to detection and segment…
Fine-grained visual classification (FGVC) involves categorizing fine subdivisions within a broader category, which poses challenges due to subtle inter-class discrepancies and large intra-class variations. However, prevailing approaches primarily focus on uni-modal visual concepts. Recent advancemen…
Diffusion-based methods have achieved remarkable achievements in 2D image or 3D object generation, however, the generation of 3D scenes and even $360^{\circ}$ images remains constrained, due to the limited number of scene datasets, the complexity of 3D scenes themselves, and the difficulty of genera…
While person Re-identification (Re-ID) has progressed rapidly due to its wide real-world applications, it also causes severe risks of leaking personal information from training data. Thus, this paper focuses on quantifying this risk by membership inference (MI) attack. Most of the existing MI attack…
