Constraint-based causal discovery is widely used for learning causal structures, but heavy reliance on conditional independence (CI) testing makes it computationally expensive in high-dimensional settings. To mitigate this limitation, many divide-and-conquer frameworks have been proposed, but most a…
Vision-language models (VLMs) have demonstrated strong potential for adapting to downstream biomedical tasks with limited training samples. However, their generalization to unseen classes within the same dataset remains limited, as the image-text alignment semantics often rely on spurious cues prese
The diversity across populations and the variability between individuals have long posed a significant challenge in cognitive science. Although large language models (LLMs) have made notable progress in aligning with human values, faithfully capturing the high degree of diversity and uncertainty in
In many real-world scenarios, the goal is to identify variables whose causal mechanisms change across related datasets. For example, detecting abnormal root nodes in manufacturing, and identifying key genes that influence cancer by analyzing differences in gene regulatory mechanisms between healthy
Recently, the expansion of Variance Reduction (VR) to Riemannian stochastic non-convex optimization has attracted increasing interest. Inspired by recursive momentum, we first introduce Stochastic Recursive Variance Reduced Gradient (SRVRG) algorithm and further present Stochastic Recursive Gradient…
Traditional black-box attack methods rely on sufficient feedback from the victim model through a large number of queries until the attack is successful. This may not be acceptable in real applications, since the deployed system may be equipped with certain defense mechanisms and only return the fina…
Despite the success of the carefully-annotated benchmarks, the effectiveness of existing graph neural networks (GNNs) can be considerably impaired in practice when the real-world graph data is noisily labeled. Previous explorations in sample selection have been demonstrated as an effective way for r…
Single-image super-resolution restores the lost structures and textures from low-resolved images, which has achieved extensive attention from the research community. The top performers in this field include deep or wide convolutional neural networks, or recurrent neural networks. However, the method…
