Mitigating Object Hallucination in MLLMs via Data-augmented Phrase-level Alignment

ICLR 2025poster

Despite their significant advancements, Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) often generate factually inaccurate information, referred to as hallucination. In this work, we address object hallucinations in MLLMs, where information is generated about an object not present in the input image. We i…

Self-alignment of Large Video Language Models with Refined Regularized Preference Optimization

NeurIPS 2025poster

Despite recent advances in Large Video Language Models (LVLMs), they still struggle with fine-grained temporal understanding, hallucinate, and often make simple mistakes on even simple video question-answering tasks, all of which pose significant challenges to their safe and reliable deployment in r…

Region-Disentangled Diffusion Model for High-Fidelity PPG-to-ECG Translation

AAAI 2024technical

The high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) calls for accessible and cost-effective continuous cardiac monitoring tools. Despite Electrocardiography (ECG) being the gold standard, continuous monitoring remains a challenge, leading to the exploration of Photoplethysmography (PPG), a promisi…

XKD: Cross-Modal Knowledge Distillation with Domain Alignment for Video Representation Learning

AAAI 2024technical

We present XKD, a novel self-supervised framework to learn meaningful representations from unlabelled videos. XKD is trained with two pseudo objectives. First, masked data reconstruction is performed to learn modality-specific representations from audio and visual streams. Next, self-supervised cros…

AVCAffe: A Large Scale Audio-Visual Dataset of Cognitive Load and Affect for Remote Work

AAAI 2023technical

We introduce AVCAffe, the first Audio-Visual dataset consisting of Cognitive load and Affect attributes. We record AVCAffe by simulating remote work scenarios over a video-conferencing platform, where subjects collaborate to complete a number of cognitively engaging tasks. AVCAffe is the largest ori…

Self-Supervised Audio-Visual Representation Learning with Relaxed Cross-Modal Synchronicity

AAAI 2023technical

We present CrissCross, a self-supervised framework for learning audio-visual representations. A novel notion is introduced in our framework whereby in addition to learning the intra-modal and standard 'synchronous' cross-modal relations, CrissCross also learns 'asynchronous' cross-modal relationship…

Uncovering the Hidden Dynamics of Video Self-supervised Learning under Distribution Shifts

NeurIPS 2023spotlight

Video self-supervised learning (VSSL) has made significant progress in recent years. However, the exact behavior and dynamics of these models under different forms of distribution shift are not yet known. In this paper, we comprehensively study the behavior of six popular self-supervised methods (v-…

CardioGAN: Attentive Generative Adversarial Network with Dual Discriminators for Synthesis of ECG from PPG

AAAI 2021technical

Electrocardiogram (ECG) is the electrical measurement of cardiac activity, whereas Photoplethysmogram (PPG) is the optical measurement of volumetric changes in blood circulation. While both signals are used for heart rate monitoring, from a medical perspective, ECG is more useful as it carries addit…
