When video reasoning requires external knowledge, many systems with large multimodal models (LMMs) adopt retrieval augmentation to supply the missing context. Appending textual or multi-clip evidence, however, forces heterogeneous signals into a single attention space. We observe diluted attention a
Video reasoning has advanced with large multimodal models (LMMs), yet their inference is often a single pass that returns an answer without verifying whether the reasoning is evidence-aligned. We introduce **Reinforce to Learn, Elect to Reason (RLER)**, a dual paradigm that decouples learning to pro
Cross-domain sequential recommendation (CSR) has garnered significant attention. Current federated frameworks for CSR leverage information across multiple domains but often rely on user alignment, which increases communication costs and privacy risks. In this work, we propose FedCSR, a novel federat…
Personalized Federated Learning (FL) handles the data heterogeneous problem by tailoring local models for each distributed data owner. Previous studies first train a highly-adaptable global model and then transfer it for personalization. However, the additional training aggravates burden of resource…
The recent algorithms for math word problems (MWP) neglect to use outside knowledge not present in the problems. Most of them only capture the word-level relationship and ignore to build hierarchical reasoning like the human being for mining the contextual structure between words and sentences. In t…
Recent advances in the video question answering (i.e., VideoQA) task have achieved strong success by following the paradigm of fine-tuning each clip-text pair independently on the pretrained transformer-based model via supervised learning. Intuitively, multiple samples (i.e., clips) should be interd…
Visual commonsense reasoning task aims at leading the research field into solving cognition-level reasoning with the ability to predict correct answers and meanwhile providing convincing reasoning paths, resulting in three sub-tasks i.e., Q->A, QA->R and Q->AR. It poses great challenges over the pro…
Detecting dense landmarks for diverse clothes, as a fundamental technique for clothes analysis, has attracted increasing research attention due to its huge application potential. However, due to the lack of modeling underlying semantic layout constraints among landmarks, prior works often detect amb…
