Generative retrieval (GR) reformulates information retrieval (IR) by framing it as the generation of document identifiers (docids), thereby enabling an end-to-end optimization and seamless integration with generative language models (LMs). Despite notable progress under supervised training, GR still…
Multimodal controversy detection, which involves determining whether a given video and its associated comments are controversial, plays a pivotal role in risk management on social video platforms. Existing methods typically provide only classification results, failing to identify what aspects are co
Visual Question Answering (VQA) is increasingly used in diverse applications ranging from general visual reasoning to safety-critical domains such as medical imaging and autonomous systems, where models must provide not only accurate answers but also explanations that humans can easily understand an
While large language models have demonstrated impressive reasoning abilities, their extension to the audio modality, particularly within large audio-language models (LALMs), remains underexplored. Addressing this gap requires a systematic approach that involves a capable base model, high-quality rea
The wide-ranging applications of large language models (LLMs), especially in safety-critical domains, necessitate the proper evaluation of the LLM’s adversarial robustness. This paper proposes an efficient tool to audit the LLM’s adversarial robustness via a prompt-based adversarial attack (PromptAt…
Alignment techniques are critical in ensuring that large language models (LLMs) output helpful and harmless content by enforcing the LLM-generated content to align with human preferences. However, the existence of noisy preferences (NPs), where the responses are mistakenly labelled as chosen or rej…
Legal judgment assistants are developing fast due to impressive progress of large language models (LLMs). However, people can hardly trust the results generated by a model without reliable analysis of legal judgement. For legal practitioners, it is common practice to utilize syllogistic reasoning to…
