The rapid evolution of generative technologies necessitates reliable methods for detecting AI-generated images. A critical limitation of current detectors is their failure to generalize to images from unseen generative models, as they often overfit to source-specific semantic cues rather than learni
Decoding-based regression, which reformulates regression as a sequence generation task, has emerged as a promising paradigm of applying large language models for numerical prediction. However, its progress is hindered by the misalignment between discrete token-level objectives (e.g., cross-entropy) …
AI-generated image (AIGI) detection is undergoing a critical transition from laboratory benchmarks to open-world adversarial defense. The prevalent paradigm focuses on finding static feature spaces, assuming that some invariant artifacts learned from historical data can achieve universal zero-shot g…
Diffusion transformers have achieved remarkable progress in high-quality image and video generation, but their computational overhead remains a significant challenge. Existing token reduction-based acceleration techniques, such as caching and merging, attempt to reduce this cost from both temporal a
Video Diffusion Transformers (VDiTs) represent the state-of-the-art in video generation but are fundamentally constrained by the quadratic computational complexity of self-attention. To accelerate this critical computation, we analyze the pre-softmax matrix ($QK^T$) and reveal two key insights: (1) …
Recent test-time defenses for CLIP claim to preserve zero-shot clean accuracy while improving adversarial robustness. However, we find the reported robustness of six recent proposed state-of-the-art methods substantially overestimated: they fail under basic adaptive attacks. We further observe that …
Diffusion transformers have shown exceptional performance in visual generation but incur high computational costs. Token reduction techniques that compress models by sharing the denoising process among similar tokens have been introduced. However, existing approaches neglect the denoising priors of…
Token reduction is an efficient method for accelerating vision transformers. Techniques like token pruning and merging progressively decrease the number of active tokens to reduce the computation cost. However, when applied to dense prediction tasks, these techniques crudely cache low-level features…
Recently, there have been some works studying self-supervised adversarial training, a learning paradigm that learns robust features without labels. While those works have narrowed the performance gap between self-supervised adversarial training (SAT) and supervised adversarial training (supervised A…
Despite the remarkable progress in generative technology, the Janus-faced issues of intellectual property protection and malicious content supervision have arisen. Efforts have been paid to manage synthetic images by attributing them to a set of potential source models. However, the closed-set class…
Solving long-tail large vocabulary object detection with deep learning based models is a challenging and demanding task, which is however under-explored. In this work, we provide the first systematic analysis on the underperformance of state-of-the-art models in front of long-tail distribution. We f…
Most existing object instance detection and segmentation models only work well on fairly balanced benchmarks where per-category training sample numbers are comparable, such as COCO. They tend to suffer performance drop on realistic datasets that are usually long-tailed. This work aims to study and a…
In this paper, we explore a novel task named visual Relation Grounding in Videos (vRGV). The task aims at spatio-temporally localizing the given relations in the form of subject-predicate-object in the videos, so as to provide supportive visual facts for other high-level video-language tasks (e.g.,…
Many existing scene parsing methods adopt Convolutional Neural Networks with fixed-size receptive fields, which frequently result in inconsistent predictions of large objects and invisibility of small objects. To tackle this issue, we propose a scale-adaptive convolution to acquire flexible-size rec…
