We introduce AWENet(Attention-guided Wavelet Enhancement Network), an efficient self-supervised network for joint interest point detection and description that balances com putational speed with feature accuracy. The network preserves f ine structural details while employing multi-scale attention to…
Evolution Strategies (ES) is a class of powerful black-box optimisation methods that are highly parallelisable and can handle non-differentiable and noisy objectives. However, naïve ES becomes prohibitively expensive at scale on GPUs due to the low arithmetic intensity of batched matrix multiplicati…
3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS) has emerged as a promising approach for high-fidelity 3D scene representation. However, relighting and composition of Gaussian splatting remain challenging because path tracing is not directly applicable. Existing relighting methods for Gaussian splatting typically adopt
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have opened new avenues for multimodal reasoning. Yet, most existing methods still rely on pretrained vision-language models (VLMs) to encode image-text pairs in isolation, ignoring the relational structure that real-world multimodal data naturally for
Multi-class unsupervised anomaly detection endeavors to establish a unified model capable of identifying anomalies across multiple classes when only normal data is accessible. However, widely employed reconstruction-based networks often struggle with the
Generating multi-frame, action-rich visual narratives without fine-tuning faces a threefold tension: action text faithfulness, subject identity fidelity, and cross frame background continuity. We propose StoryTailor, a zero-shot pipeline that runs on a single RTX 4090 (24 GB) and produces temporally
To continuously enhance model adaptability in surgical video scene parsing, recent studies incrementally update it to progressively learn to segment an increasing number of surgical instruments over time. However, prior works constantly overlooked the potential of positive forward knowledge transfer
App agents, which autonomously operate mobile Apps through GUIs, have gained significant interest in real-world applications. Yet, they often struggle with long-horizon planning, failing to find the optimal actions for complex tasks with longer steps. To address this, world models are used to predic…
While mainstream vision-language models (VLMs) have advanced rapidly in understanding image-level information, they still lack the ability to focus on specific areas designated by humans. Rather, they typically rely on large volumes of high-quality image-text paired data to learn and generate poster…
While financial data presents one of the most challenging and interesting sequence modelling tasks due to high noise, heavy tails, and strategic interactions, progress in this area has been hindered by the lack of consensus on quantitative evaluation paradigms. To address this, we present **LOB-Ben…
Existing prompt-based approaches have demonstrated impressive performance in continual learning, leveraging pre-trained large-scale models for classification tasks; however, the tight coupling between foreground-background information and the coupled attention between prompts and image-text tokens p…
Text-guided image style transfer methods have gradually become a research hotspot. However, existing text-guided style transfer method suffers from content information missing and artifacts in the generated stylized images. Therefore, we propose CReStyler, a text-guided image style method based on t…
Recent studies have made remarkable progress in histopathology classification. Based on current successes, contemporary works proposed to further upgrade the model towards a more generalizable and robust direction through incrementally learning from the sequentially delivered domains. Unlike previou…
Traditional Anomaly Detection (AD) methods have predominantly relied on unsupervised learning from extensive normal data. Recent AD methods have evolved with the advent of large pre-trained vision-language models, enhancing few-shot anomaly detection capabilities. However, these latest AD methods st…
In this paper, we propose an effective sound event detection (SED) method based on the audio spectrogram transformer (AST) model, pretrained on the large-scale AudioSet for audio tagging (AT) task, termed AST-SED. Pretrained AST models have recently shown promise on DCASE2022 challenge task4 where t…
Qin Opera art is one of China’s intangible cultural heritage, and its influence is gradually declining. The cartoonization of Qin Opera is one of the feasible methods. However, current cartoonization methods suffer from the inability to classify and accurately cartoonize Qinqiang portraits by gender…
The large-scale pre-trained vision language models (VLM) have shown remarkable domain transfer capability on natural images. However, it remains unknown whether this capability can also apply to the medical image domain. This paper thoroughly studies the knowledge transferability of pre-trained VLMs…
Monocular image-based 3D perception has become an active research area in recent years owing to its applications in autonomous driving. Approaches to monocular 3D perception including detection and tracking, however, often yield inferior performance when compared to LiDAR-based techniques. Through s…
The heart of multimodal learning research lies the challenge of effectively exploiting fusion representations among multiple modalities.However, existing two-way cross-modality unidirectional attention could only exploit the intermodal interactions from one source to one target modality. This indeed…
Multimodal sentiment analysis is the challenging research area that attends to the fusion of multiple heterogeneous modalities. The main challenge is the occurrence of some missing modalities during the multimodal fusion procedure. However, the existing techniques require all modalities as input, th…
We consider the problem of explaining the predictions of graph neural networks (GNNs), which otherwise are considered as black boxes. Existing methods invariably focus on explaining the importance of graph nodes or edges but ignore the substructures of graphs, which are more intuitive and human-inte…
The interaction test between a robotic rat and living rat is considered as a possible way to quantitatively characterize the rat sociality. In such robot-rat interactions, the robot should be designed to fully replicate a real rat in terms of morphological and behavioral characteristics. To address…
Subspace clustering is an effective technique for segmenting data drawn from multiple subspaces. However, for time series data (e.g., human motion), exploiting temporal information is still a challenging problem. We propose a novel temporal subspace clustering (TSC) approach in this paper. We improv…
