Anomaly detection in tabular data poses significant challenges due to heterogeneous feature types—mixing numerical, categorical, and textual attributes, which complicate learning meaningful representations of normality. Recent work has applied large language models (LLMs) to this problem by serializ…
In online incremental learning, data continuously arrives with substantial shifts in distribution, creating a significant challenge since previous samples cannot be revisited. Prior research has typically relied on either a single adaptive centroid or fixed multiple centroids to represent each class
Knowledge distillation is crucial for compressing large Vision–Language Models (VLMs) into efficient architectures. While prior VLM research has primarily focused on reasoning tasks like visual question answering, multimodal embedding learning, a key component for large-scale retrieval, has received…
Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) is a widely used RL-free method for aligning language models from pairwise preferences, but it models preferences over full sequences even though generation is driven by per-token decisions. Existing token-level extensions typically decompose a sequence-level Bra…
