Mind Dreamer: Untethering Imagination via Active Counterfactual Reasoning on Latent Manifolds

ICML 2026poster

Model-Based Reinforcement Learning (MBRL) leverages latent imagination for sample efficiency, yet remains constrained by **Historical Tethering**: imagination is typically initialized from observed states. This creates a learning asymmetry, where the world model’s manifold discovery outpaces the pol…

RAM2C: A Liberal Arts Educational Chatbot based on Retrieval-augmented Multi-role Multi-expert Collaboration

COLING 2025main

Recently, many studies focus on utilizing large language models (LLMs) into educational dialogues. Especially, within liberal arts dialogues, educators must balance Humanized communication, Teaching expertise, and Safety-ethics (HTS), besides the subject knowledge itself. However, due to collecting…

Dance of SNN and ANN: Solving binding problem by combining spike timing and reconstructive attention

NeurIPS 2022accept

The binding problem is one of the fundamental challenges that prevent the artificial neural network (ANNs) from a compositional understanding of the world like human perception, because disentangled and distributed representations of generative factors can interfere and lead to ambiguity when comple…

Convolution with even-sized kernels and symmetric padding

NeurIPS 2019poster

Compact convolutional neural networks gain efficiency mainly through depthwise convolutions, expanded channels and complex topologies, which contrarily aggravate the training process. Besides, 3x3 kernels dominate the spatial representation in these models, whereas even-sized kernels (2x2, 4x4) are…
