Hyperbolic Relational Prompts for Intersectional Fairness in Medical VLMs

CVPR 2026

Ensuring fairness in medical vision-language models (VLMs) is essential for equitable healthcare, yet existing models amplify biases across demographic subgroups such as race and gender. Traditional fairness mitigation approaches relying on broad distribution alignment, fall short in addressing thes

Scaling Supervised Local Learning with Augmented Auxiliary Networks

ICLR 2024poster

Deep neural networks are typically trained using global error signals that backpropagate (BP) end-to-end, which is not only biologically implausible but also suffers from the update locking problem and requires huge memory consumption. Local learning, which updates each layer independently with a gr…
