We propose Context-aware Video-text Alignment (CVA), a novel framework to address a significant challenge in video temporal grounding: achieving temporally sensitive video-text alignment that remains robust to irrelevant background context. %CVA integrates complementary data-centric and architectura
Multi-task learning (MTL) involves the simultaneous optimization of multiple task-specific losses, often leading to gradient conflicts and scale imbalances that result in negative transfer. While existing multi-task optimization methods attempt to mitigate these challenges, they either lack the stoc
In this paper, we introduce the Context-Aware Video Instance Segmentation (CAVIS), a novel framework designed to enhance instance association by integrating contextual information adjacent to each object. To efficiently extract and leverage this information, we propose the Context-Aware Instance Tra…
In this paper, we present Latest Object Memory Management (LOMM) for temporally consistent video instance segmentation that significantly improves long-term instance tracking. At the core of our method is Latest Object Memory (LOM), which robustly tracks and continuously updates the latest states of…
Bayesian Optimization (BO) has been recognized for its effectiveness in optimizing expensive and complex objective functions. Recent advancements in Latent Bayesian Optimization (LBO) have shown promise by integrating generative models such as variational autoencoders (VAEs) to manage the complexity…
Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable success across diverse domains, due to their strong instruction-following capabilities. This raised interest in optimizing instructions for black-box LLMs, whose internal parameters are inaccessible but popular for their strong performance and ea…
We present Text-driven object-centric style editing model named Style-Editor, a novel method that guides style editing at an object-centric level using textual inputs.The core of Style-Editor is our Patch-wise Co-Directional (PCD) loss, meticulously designed for precise object-centric editing that a…
Latent Bayesian optimization (LBO) approaches have successfully adopted Bayesian optimization over a continuous latent space by employing an encoder-decoder architecture to address the challenge of optimization in a high dimensional or discrete input space. LBO learns a surrogate model to approximat…
Bayesian optimization is a powerful method for optimizing black-box functions with limited function evaluations. Recent works have shown that optimization in a latent space through deep generative models such as variational autoencoders leads to effective and efficient Bayesian optimization for stru…
Multi-hop Knowledge Graph Question Answering (KGQA) is a task that involves retrieving nodes from a knowledge graph (KG) to answer natural language questions. Recent GNN-based approaches formulate this task as a KG path searching problem, where messages are sequentially propagated from the seed nod…
In this paper, we present a direct adaptation strategy (ADAS), which aims to directly adapt a single model to multiple target domains in a semantic segmentation task without pretrained domain-specific models. To do so, we design a multi-target domain transfer network (MTDT-Net) that aligns visual at…
In this paper, we present DRANet, a network architecture that disentangles image representations and transfers the visual attributes in a latent space for unsupervised cross-domain adaptation. Unlike the existing domain adaptation methods that learn associated features sharing a domain, DRANet prese…
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) often suffer from weak-generalization due to sparsely labeled data despite their promising results on various graph-based tasks. Data augmentation is a prevalent remedy to improve the generalization ability of models in many domains. However, due to the non-Euclidean nat…
