Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable performance across a wide range of visual reasoning tasks, yet their vulnerability to safety risks remains a pressing concern. While prior research primarily focuses on jailbreak defenses that detect and refuse explicitly unsafe inpu
We introduce SONO, a novel method leveraging Second-Order Neural Ordinary Differential Equations (Second-Order NODEs) to enhance cross-modal few-shot learning. By employing a simple yet effective architecture consisting of a Second-Order NODEs model paired with a cross-modal classifier, SONO address…
Fine tuning pretrained language models for downstream NLP tasks, while effective, can be costly when the model size and the number of tasks increase, as it requires full parameter updates and a separate model served for each task. Parameter-efficient tuning (PET) addresses the issue by keeping the p
Due to the difficulty of creating high-quality labelled training data for different languages, the low-resource problem is crucial yet challenging for automated essay scoring (AES). However, little attention has been paid to addressing this challenge. In this paper, we propose a novel zero-shot cros…
The rapid proliferation of some real-time applications (e.g., video surveillance) has driven enormous interest in maximizing information freshness, quantified by the age of information (AoI). For some computation-intensive updates such as images or videos, the real-time update processing requires in…
Multimodal emotion recognition has attracted much attention recently. Fusing multiple modalities effectively with limited labeled data is a challenging task. Considering the success of pre-trained model and fine-grained nature of emotion expression, we think it is reasonable to take these two aspect…
