Federated Graph Learning (FGL) has emerged as a compelling paradigm for collaboratively training a global model while preserving the privacy of multi-source graphs. Nonetheless, FGL faces a critical challenge of data heterogeneity, where semantic and structural discrepancies across clients significa
Vision-Language Pre-training (VLP) models, while achieving state-of-the-art performance on various multimodal tasks, exhibit significant vulnerability to multimodal adversarial examples. In black-box attack scenarios of VLP models, a key challenge lies in the limited transferability of these adversa
Frame selectoin is crucial due to high frame redundancy and limited context windows when applying Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) to long videos. Current methods typically select frames with high relevance to a given query, resulting a disjointed set of frames that disregard the narrative struc
Long-Tailed Class-Incremental Learning (LT-CIL) remains a fundamental challenge due to biased gradient updates caused by highly imbalanced data distributions and the inherent stability-plasticity dilemma. These factors jointly degrade tail-class performance and exacerbate catastrophic forgetting. To…
Self-ensemble adversarial training methods improve model robustness by ensembling models at different training epochs, such as model weight averaging (WA). However, previous research has shown that self-ensemble defense methods in adversarial training (AT) still suffer from robust overfitting, which…
In the age of social media, posting attractive mugshots is commonplace, leading to an urgent need for automatic facial beautification techniques. To better meet the esthetic preferences of users, we devise a customized automatic face beautification task that can retouch the face adaptively to match…
Source-free object detection (SFOD) aims to adapt the source detector to unlabeled target domain data in the absence of source domain data. Most SFOD methods follow the same self-training paradigm using mean-teacher (MT) framework where the student model is guided by only one single teacher model. H…
Grounded language-image pre-trained models have shown strong zero-shot generalization to various downstream object detection tasks. Despite their promising performance, the models rely heavily on the laborious prompt engineering. Existing works typically address this problem by tuning text prompts u…
Domain generalization (DG) is a fundamental yet very challenging research topic in machine learning. The existing arts mainly focus on learning domain-invariant features with limited source domains in a static model. Unfortunately, there is a lack of training-free mechanism to adjust the model when…
Domain adaptation is an important property in robot vision, which enables the neural networks pre-trained on source domains to adapt target domains automatically without any annotation efforts. During this process, source data is not always accessible due to the constraints of expensive storage over…
Vanilla unsupervised domain adaptation methods tend to optimize the model with fixed neural architecture, which is not very practical in real-world scenarios since the target data is usually processed by different resource-limited devices. It is therefore of great necessity to facilitate architectur…
