Human Novel View Synthesis (HNVS) aims to synthesize photorealistic human images from novel viewpoints given observations from known views. Despite significant advances achieved by existing methods such as NeRF, diffusion models, and 3DGS, they still face substantial challenges in achieving stable m
Distributed Image Compression (DIC) is crucial for multi-view transmission, especially when operating at extremely low bitrates (< 0.1 bpp). Its core challenge is effectively utilizing side information to achieve high-quality reconstruction under strict bitrate budgets. However, existing DIC approac
Enhancing Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) for specialized domains remains a critical challenge. While recent industrial frameworks attempt to encapsulate Standard Operating Procedures into modular "skills" for dynamic retrieval, utilizing them via context engineering often proves insufficient for comp…
Trajectory-Guided image-to-video (I2V) generation aims to synthesize videos that adhere to user-specified motion instructions. Existing methods typically rely on computationally expensive fine-tuning on scarce annotated datasets. Although some zero-shot methods attempt to trajectory control in the l
When the current physical adversarial patches cannot deceive thermal infrared detectors, the existing techniques implement adversarial attacks from scratch, such as digital patch generation, material production, and physical deployment. Besides, it is difficult to finely regulate infrared radiation.…

Current diffusion-based super-resolution (SR) approaches achieve commendable performance at the cost of high inference overhead. Therefore, distillation techniques are utilized to accelerate the multi-step teacher model into one-step student model. Nevertheless, these methods significantly raise tra…
Different from supervised semantic segmentation task, semi-supervised semantic segmentation (SSSS) aims to alleviate the burden of time-consuming pixel-wise manual labeling. Although existing methods have achieved the promising performance with a small amount of labeled images, they still suffer fro…
Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) has been widely used in computer vision and graphics, achieving impressive results in novel view synthesis and multi-view 3D reconstruction. However, despite its excellent performance under ideal conditions, NeRF struggles in challenging environments such as hazy, foggy…
3D Change Detection (3DCD) has gradually become another research hotspot after image change detection. Recent works focus on using artificial labels for supervised or weakly-supervised training of siamese networks to segment changed points. However, labeling every points of multi-temporal point clou…
Point cloud registration is a fundamental task in 3D computer vision. Recent advances have shown that graph-based methods are effective for outlier rejection in this context. However, existing clique-based methods impose overly strict constraints and are NP-hard, making it difficult to achieve both…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated superior results across a wide range of tasks, and Retrieval-augmented Generation (RAG) is an effective way to enhance the performance by locating relevant information and placing it into the context window of the LLM. However, the relationship between…
Existing hyperspectral image (HSI) super-resolution (SR) methods struggle to effectively capture the complex spectral-spatial relationships and low-level details, while diffusion models represent a promising generative model known for their exceptional performance in modeling complex relations and l…
Large Language Models (LLMs), such as LLaMA and T5, have shown exceptional performance across various tasks through fine-tuning. Although low-rank adaption (LoRA) has emerged to cheaply fine-tune these LLMs on downstream tasks, their deployment is still hindered by the vast model scale and computati…
Graph representation learning (GRL) is critical for extracting insights from complex network structures, but it also raises security concerns due to potential privacy vulnerabilities in these representations. This paper investigates the structural vulnerabilities in graph neural models where sensiti…
Prompt engineering is critical for the development of LLM-based applications. However, it is usually done manually in a “trial and error” fashion that can be time consuming, ineffective, and sub-optimal. Even for the prompts which seemingly work well, there is always a lingering question: can the pr…
Multi-instance point cloud registration is the problem of estimating multiple rigid transformations between two point clouds. Existing solutions rely on global spatial consistency of ambiguity and the time-consuming clustering of highdimensional correspondence features, making it difficult to handle…
Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) has been a powerful tool for Large Language Models (LLMs) to efficiently process overly lengthy contexts. However, recent LLMs like Gemini-1.5 and GPT-4 show exceptional capabilities to understand long contexts directly. We conduct a comprehensive comparison betw…
Accent conversion aims to convert the accent of a source speech to a target accent, meanwhile preserving the speaker’s identity. This paper introduces a novel non-autoregressive framework for accent conversion that learns accent-agnostic linguistic representations and employs them to convert the acc…
3D interacting hand pose estimation from a single RGB image is a challenging task, due to serious self-occlusion and inter-occlusion towards hands, confusing similar appearance patterns between 2 hands, ill-posed joint position mapping from 2D to 3D, etc.. To address these, we propose to extend A2J-…
One-shot Neural architecture search (One-shot NAS) has been proposed as a time-efficient approach to obtain optimal subnet architectures and weights under different complexity cases by training only once. However, the subnet performance obtained by weight sharing is often inferior to the performance…

Our approach termed C3P does not require any labor-consuming 3D keypoint annotation for training. To…
In this paper, we formulate a novel task to synthesize speech in sync with a silent pre-recorded video, denoted as automatic voice over (AVO).
