Deep Research Agents (DRAs) are emerging as one of the most practical classes of LLM-based agents. Given an open-ended research task, they find, analyze, and synthesize large numbers of online sources to produce a comprehensive report at the level of a research analyst. This can compress hours of ma…
Generating with citations is crucial for trustworthy Large Language Models (LLMs), yet even advanced LLMs often produce mismatched or irrelevant citations. Existing methods over-optimize citation fidelity while overlooking relevance to the user query, which degrades answer quality and robustness in
A 3-DOF force-controlled end-effector based on a parallel mechanism is an effective approach for high-precision polishing in industrial applications. However, the dynamic modeling of rigid-flexible coupling in parallel mechanisms, as well as the decoupled control of friction and coupling forces, rem
The increasing capability and widespread usage of large language models (LLMs) highlight the desirability of automatic detection of machine-generated text. Existing supervised detectors often overfit within their training domains, as they have primarily learned domain-specific textual features, such…
Visual Question Answering (VQA) aims to answer questions utilizing information from both textual and visual modalities. New data categories and novel combinations of the two modalities will continuously emerge in practical applications, necessitating continual learning. For this unique compositional…
Complex KBQA leverages the knowledge base (KB) to answer complex natural questions involving complicated semantics like multi-hop reasoning. Existing methods involve a question decomposition process, i.e., breaking a complex question into several simpler sub-questions, to assist obtaining logical fo…
Text style transfer (TST) is an important task in natural language generation, which aims to transfer the text style (e.g., sentiment) while keeping its semantic information. Due to the absence of parallel datasets for supervision, most existing studies have been conducted in an unsupervised manner,…
In-context learning (ICL), which promotes inference with several demonstrations, has become a widespread paradigm to stimulate LLM capabilities for downstream tasks. Due to context length constraints, it cannot be further improved in spite of more training data, and general features directly from LL…
The effective detection of AI-generated text is a vital principle to ensure responsible use of large language models (LLMs). Previous studies mainly focused on discovering and utilizing internal evidences contained in the text itself to perform the detection, while ignoring external evidences implic…
Text-based knowledge graph completion (KGC) methods utilize pre-trained language models for triple encoding and further fine-tune the model to achieve completion. Despite their excellent performance, they neglect the knowledge context in inferring process. Intuitively, knowledge contexts, which refe…
Representation Learning on Knowledge Graphs (KGs) is essential for downstream tasks. The dominant approach, KG Embedding (KGE), represents entities with independent vectors and faces the scalability challenge. Recent studies propose an alternative way for parameter efficiency, which represents ent…
Text style transfer (TST) is an important task in natural language generation, which aims to alter the stylistic attributes (e.g., sentiment) of a sentence and keep its semantic meaning unchanged. Most existing studies mainly focus on the transformation between styles, yet ignore that this transform…
Zero-shot object detection (ZSD) has received considerable attention from the community of computer vision in recent years. It aims to simultaneously locate and categorize previously unseen objects during inference. One crucial problem of ZSD is how to accurately predict the label of each object pro…
