Deep Global-sense Hard-negative Discriminative Generation Hashing for Cross-modal Retrieval

ICLR 2026poster

Hard negative generation (HNG) provides valuable signals for deep learning, but existing methods mostly rely on local correlations while neglecting the global geometry of the embedding space. This limitation often leads to weak discrimination, particularly in cross-modal hashing, which obtains compa…

Mixture of Ranks with Degradation-Aware Routing for One-Step Real-World Image Super-Resolution

AAAI 2026technical

The demonstrated success of sparsely-gated Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures, exemplified by models such as DeepSeek and Grok, has motivated researchers to investigate their adaptation to diverse domains. In real-world image super-resolution (Real-ISR), existing approaches mainly rely on fine-t

Rethinking Model Calibration through Spectral Entropy Regularization in Medical Image Segmentation

ICLR 2026poster

Deep neural networks for medical image segmentation often produce overconfident predictions, posing clinical risks due to miscalibrated uncertainty estimates. In this work, we rethink model calibration from a frequency-domain perspective and identify two critical factors causing miscalibration: spec…

Diff-MoE: Diffusion Transformer with Time-Aware and Space-Adaptive Experts

ICML 2025poster

Diffusion models have transformed generative modeling but suffer from scalability limitations due to computational overhead and inflexible architectures that process all generative stages and tokens uniformly. In this work, we introduce Diff-MoE, a novel framework that combines Diffusion Transformer…

Effective Diffusion Transformer Architecture for Image Super-Resolution

AAAI 2025technical

Recent advances indicate that diffusion model holds great promise in image super-resolution. While latest methods are primarily based on latent diffusion models with convolutional neural networks, there are few attempts to explore transformers, which have demonstrated remarkable performance in image…

Bridging Generative and Discriminative Models for Unified Visual Perception with Diffusion Priors

IJCAI 2024poster

The remarkable prowess of diffusion models in image generation has spurred efforts to extend their application beyond generative tasks. However, a persistent challenge exists in lacking a unified approach to apply diffusion models to visual perception tasks with diverse semantic granularity requirem…

Multi-Stage Reinforcement Learning for Non-Prehensile Manipulation

RA-L 2024

Manipulating objects without grasping them facilitates complex tasks, known as non-prehensile manipulation. Most previous methods are limited to learning a single skill to manipulate objects with primitive shapes and are unserviceable for flexible object manipulation that requires a combination of m
