Novel view synthesis for dynamic scenes remains challenging due to complex motion variations. Recent methods represent dynamic and static regions with separate Gaussians to improve efficiency and accuracy, but inaccurate assignment of static and dynamic Gaussian primitives still limits performance.
As the third generation of neural networks, Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have demonstrated remarkable potential across diverse applications owing to their unique temporal dynamics. In recent years, analyzing the robustness of SNNs from a temporal perspective has become an emerging research focus.
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have attracted increasing attention for their biologically inspired temporal dynamics. As their applications expand, understanding their robustness has become an important research focus. However, little is known about how the intrinsic temporal properties of SNNs affe
A faithful decision-making process requires models to ground human-understandable concepts both spatially (where they appear in the image) and causally (how they influence the prediction). Recent advances in Vision-Language Models (VLMs) enable concept-level alignment and have inspired Concept Bottl
Recent brain decoding studies have primarily emphasized the development of brain decoders, while largely neglecting the segmentation step. Existing methods typically adopt fixed-length segmentation, which might overlook subject- or task-level variability and disrupt temporal patterns within brain si
Perception under low illumination remains a major challenge for computer vision systems, as RGB sensors often fail to capture sufficient structural and color information in extremely dark environments. Event cameras, with their high dynamic range and temporal resolution, provide complementary cues t
Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs) provide an interpretable framework for neural networks by mapping visual features to predefined, human-understandable concepts. However, the application of CBMs is often constrained by insufficient concept annotations. Recently, multi-modal pre-trained models have sh…
Hebbian learning is a biological principle that intuitively describes how neurons adapt their connections through repeated stimuli. However, when applied to machine learning, it suffers serious issues due to the unconstrained updates of the connections and the lack of accounting for feedback mediati…
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), models inspired by neural mechanisms in the brain, allow for energy-efficient implementation on neuromorphic hardware. However, SNNs trained with current direct training approaches are constrained to a specific time step. This "temporal inflexibility" 1) hinders SNNs'…

Spiking neural networks provide an alternative solution to conventional artificial neural networks with energy-saving and high-efficiency characteristics after hardware implantation. However, due to its non-differentiable activation function and the temporally delayed accumulation in outputs, the di…
Recently, brain-inspired spiking neuron networks (SNNs) have attracted widespread research interest because of their event-driven and energy-efficient characteristics. It is difficult to efficiently train deep SNNs due to the non-differentiability of its activation function, which disables the typic…
Spiking Neural Network (SNN) has been recognized as one of the next generation of neural networks. Conventionally, SNN can be converted from a pre-trained ANN by only replacing the ReLU activation to spike activation while keeping the parameters intact. Perhaps surprisingly, in this work we show tha…
We study the challenging task of neural network quantization without end-to-end retraining, called Post-training Quantization (PTQ). PTQ usually requires a small subset of training data but produces less powerful quantized models than Quantization-Aware Training (QAT). In this work, we propose a nov…
