Disentangled representation learning is a powerful paradigm for robust attribute prediction. While recent methods address attribute correlations, hidden correlations remain underexplored, where data under the value of a certain attribute exhibit underlying modes correlated with other attributes. To …
Solving primitive equations is essential for accurate weather forecasting. However, traditional numerical weather prediction (NWP) methods often incorporate various simplifications that limit their effectiveness in parameterizing unresolved physical processes. Meanwhile, existing deep learning-based…
Recent advancements in event argument extraction (EAE) involve incorporating useful auxiliary information into models during training and inference, such as retrieved instances and event templates. These methods face two challenges: (1) the retrieval results may be irrelevant and (2) templates are d…
For document-level event argument extraction, existing role-based span selection strategies suffer from several limitations: (1) ignoring interrelations among arguments within an event instance; (2) relying on pre-trained language models to capture role semantics at either the event pattern or docum…
To meet application needs, event extraction has shifted from simple entities to unconventional entities serving as event arguments. However, current corpora with unconventional entities as event arguments are limited in event types and lack rich multi-events and shared arguments. Financial commentar…
We solve the challenging document-level event extraction problem by proposing a joint exaction methodology that can avoid inefficiency and error propagation issues in classic pipeline methods. Essentially, we address the three crucial limitations in existing studies. First, the autoregressive strate…
In practice, Wearable Human Activity Recognition (WHAR) models usually face performance degradation on the new user due to user variance. Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) becomes the natural solution to cross-user WHAR under annotation scarcity. Existing UDA models usually align samples across d…
The training process of federated learning is known to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks (e.g., backdoor attack). Previous works showed that differential privacy (DP) can be used to defend against backdoor attacks, yet at the cost of vastly losing model utility. To address this issue, we in this…
