The neural-enhanced video streaming (NeVS) has been an emerging technique to integrate neural models into video codecs for higher streaming efficiency. The state-of-the-art methods, e.g., DeNC and Gemino, typically compress videos in RGB space and restore video quality via a neural enhancement model
Pretrained vision-language models (VLMs), such as CLIP, have shown promise in federated learning (FL) by bringing strong multimodal representations to edge devices. However, continual adaptation remains a core challenge in practical federated settings, where task distributions evolve over time and d…
Transformer-based models have achieved remarkable success in multivariate time series forecasting (MTSF) by capturing long-range dependencies. However, their widespread adoption is hindered by the quadratic computational complexity of self-attention, which limits scalability on high-dimensional sequ…
Federated continual learning (FCL) of large language models on edge devices is constrained by a communication--stability--plasticity trilemma. We reveal a less-is-more phenomenon: beyond a moderate layer upload ratio, stability loss offsets saturated plasticity gains, so overall continual performanc…
Vision token pruning has proven to be an effective acceleration technique for the Efficient Vision Language Model (VLM). However, existing pruning methods demonstrate excellent performance preservation in visual question answering (VQA) and suffer substantial degradation on visual grounding (VG) tas…
Recently, the spiking neural networks (SNNs) have shown great promise in enhancing AI task performance by utilizing the brain-inspired and energy-efficient computational paradigm via the binary (0/1) spikes. Modern SNNs, especially those based on transformers, often require FPGA accelerators or neur…
With the advancement of graph representation learning, self-supervised graph contrastive learning (GCL) has emerged as a key technique in the field. In GCL, positive and negative samples are generated through data augmentation. While recent works have introduced model-based methods to enhance positi…
Recent years have witnessed the rise of Neural-enhanced Video Streaming (NeVS), which integrates neural restoration models into video codecs for higher compression-restoration performance. Despite its benefit, existing work has not well explored the full potential of NeVS paradigm, due to: (1) post-…
