Rethinking Gating Mechanism in Sparse MoE: Handling Arbitrary Modality Inputs with Confidence-Guided Gate

ICML 2026poster

Effectively managing missing modalities is a fundamental challenge in real-world multimodal learning scenarios, where data incompleteness often results from systematic collection errors or sensor failures. Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (SMoE) architectures have the potential to naturally handle multimod…

Tackling Multimodal Learning Challenges with Mixture-of-Expert: A Survey

IJCAI 2026

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) presents a naturally compatible and scalable framework for multimodal learning, demonstrating strong adaptability across diverse modalities and tasks. Despite its growing success, a comprehensive and systematic evaluation of multimodal MoE remains lacking. Existing surveys t

Test-Time Attention Purification for Backdoored Large Vision Language Models

CVPR 2026

Despite the strong multimodal performance, large vision-language models (LVLMs) are vulnerable during fine-tuning to backdoor attacks, where adversaries insert trigger-embedded samples into the training data to implant behaviors that can be maliciously activated at test time. Existing defenses typic
