Learning *latent dynamics* is central to assessing current states and forecasting future trajectories for high-dimensional time series. For locally-stationary latent dynamics of the form $\mathcal{F}(\mathbf{z}_{<t}; \mathbf{c})$ with latent dynamics state $\mathbf{z}_t$ and environment variable $\m…
Attribute correlations in the training data will compromise the ability of a deep generative model (DGM) to synthesize images with under-represented attribute combinations ($\textit{i.e.,}$ minority samples). Existing approaches mitigate this by data re-sampling to remove attribute correlations seen…
An increasing interest in learning to forecast for time-series of high-dimensional observations is the ability to adapt to systems with diverse underlying dynamics. Access to observations that define a stationary distribution of these systems is often unattainable, as the underlying dynamics may cha…
Advancements in deep learning have led to the development of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) without being supervised by PDE solutions. While vanilla PINNs require training one network per PDE configuration, recent works have showed the pote…
The interest in leveraging physics-based inductive bias in deep learning has resulted in recent development of _hybrid deep generative models (hybrid-DGMs)_ that integrates known physics-based mathematical expressions in neural generative models. To identify these hybrid-DGMs requires inferring par…
Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have shown significant potential in assisting medical diagnosis by leveraging extensive biomedical datasets. However, the advancement of medical image understanding and reasoning critically depends on building high-quality visual instruction data, which is costly…
Limited progress has been made in continual unsupervised learning of representations, especially in reusing, expanding, and continually disentangling learned semantic factors across data environments. We argue that this is because existing approaches treat continually-arrived data independently, wit…
Modern applications increasingly require learning and forecasting latent dynamics from high-dimensional time-series. Compared to univariate time-series forecasting, this adds a new challenge of reasoning about the latent dynamics of an unobserved abstract state. Sequential latent variable models (LV…
Learning rich representation from data is an important task for deep generative models such as variational auto-encoder (VAE). However, by extracting high-level abstractions in the bottom-up inference process, the goal of preserving all factors of variations for top-down generation is compromised. M…
