Existing multimodal retrieval systems excel at semantic matching but implicitly assume that query-image relevance can be measured in isolation. This paradigm overlooks the rich dependencies inherent in realistic visual streams, where information is distributed across temporal sequences rather than c…
Image tokenization has significantly advanced visual generation and multimodal modeling, particularly when paired with autoregressive models. However, current methods face challenges in balancing efficiency and quality: high-resolution image generation either requires an excessive number of tokens o
Distilling latent diffusion models (LDMs)/rectified flow models (RFMs) into ones that are fast to sample from conditions is attracting huge interest. However, the majority of existing methods either need significant training resources or lead to quality degradation, especially in text-image alignmen
Text-to-3D generation based on score distillation of pre-trained 2D diffusion models has gained increasing interest, with variational score distillation (VSD) as a remarkable example. VSD proves that vanilla score distillation can be improved by introducing an extra score-based model, which characte…
We propose Layer Decomposition of Graphic Designs (LDGD), a novel vision task that converts composite graphic design (e.g., posters) into structured representations comprising ordered RGB-A layers and metadata. By transforming visual content into structured data, LDGD facilitates precise image editi…
Masked Image Modeling (MIM) with Vector Quantization (VQ) has achieved great success in both self-supervised pre-training and image generation. However, most existing methods struggle to address the trade-off in the shared latent space for generation quality vs. representation learning and efficienc…
The iterative sampling procedure employed by diffusion models (DMs) often leads to significant latency. To address this, we propose Stochastic Consistency Distillation (SCott) to enable accelerated text-to-image generation, where high-quality generations can be achieved with just 2-4 sampling steps…
Human intelligence can retrieve any person according to both visual and language descriptions. However the current computer vision community studies specific person re-identification (ReID) tasks in different scenarios separately which limits the applications in the real world. This paper strives to…
"Text-to-image diffusion models are well known for their ability to generate realistic images based on textual prompts. However, the existing works have predominantly focused on English, lacking support for non-English text-to-image models. The most commonly used translation methods cannot solve the…
Human-centric perceptions include a variety of vision tasks, which have widespread industrial applications, including surveillance, autonomous driving, and the metaverse. It is desirable to have a general pretrain model for versatile human-centric downstream tasks. This paper forges ahead along this…
For the problem of early detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) from electrocardiogram (ECG), it is difficult to capture subject-invariant discriminative features from ECG signals, due to the high variation in ECG morphology across subjects and the noise in ECG. In this paper, we propose an Discrete…
