Triangles capture higher-order structures in graphs and are fundamental to applications such as clustering and network analysis. To enable efficient use of such structures at scale, we study the problem of triangle cut sparsification, which aims to reduce the graph size while approximately preservin…
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed in open-ended, real-world environments where inputs are messy, underspecified, and not always trustworthy. Unlike curated benchmarks, these settings frequently involve instructions that reference missing objects or contradictory fact
The Knowledge Graph Entity Typing (KGET) task aims to predict missing type annotations for entities in knowledge graphs. Most recent studies only focus on the structural information from an entity’s neighborhood or semantic information from textual representations of entities or relations. In this p…
We study streaming algorithms for Correlation Clustering. Given a graph as an arbitrary-order stream of edges, with each edge labeled as positive or negative, the goal is to partition the vertices into disjoint clusters, such that the number of disagreements is minimized. In this paper, we give the…
Existing Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are predominantly trained and tested on consistent visual-textual inputs, leaving open the question of whether they can handle inconsistencies in real-world, layout-rich content. To bridge this gap, we propose the Multimodal Inconsistency Reasoning (…
Multipanel images, commonly seen as web screenshots, posters, etc., pervade our daily lives. These images, characterized by their composition of multiple subfigures in distinct layouts, effectively convey information to people. Toward building advanced multimodal AI applications, such as agents that…
Spoken Language Understanding (SLU) is a critical component of voice assistants; it consists of converting speech to semantic parses for task execution. Previous works have explored end-to-end models to improve the quality and robustness of SLU models with Deliberation, however these models have rem…
Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) are central to our interaction with digital devices and growing efforts have been made to build models for various GUI understanding tasks. However, these efforts largely overlook an important GUI-referring task: screen reading based on user-indicated points, which w…
Spoken language understanding (SLU) is a important field between the Speech and NLP community focused on converting a users’ speech utterance into an executable semantic parse. In order to facilitate open research in this space, we introduce the 1st Spoken Language Understanding challenge hosted at…
Action segmentation plays an important role in enabling robots to automatically understand human activities. To train the action recognition model, while obtaining action labels for all frames is costly, annotating timestamp labels for weak supervision is cost-effective. However, existing methods ma…
Misinformation has recently become a well-documented matter of public concern. Existing studies on this topic have hitherto adopted a coarse concept of misinformation, which incorporates a broad spectrum of story types ranging from political conspiracies to misinterpreted pranks. This paper aims to…
