Personalized generation models for a single subject have demonstrated remarkable effectiveness, highlighting their significant potential. However, when extended to multiple subjects, existing models often exhibit degraded performance, particularly in maintaining subject consistency and adhering to t
Domain Generalization (DG) aims to enhance model robustness in unseen or distributionally shifted target domains through training exclusively on source domains. Although existing DG techniques, such as data manipulation, learning strategies, and representation learning, have shown significant progre…
Text-based person search (TBPS) enables the retrieval of person images from large-scale databases using natural language descriptions, offering critical value in surveillance applications. However, a major challenge lies in the labor-intensive process of obtaining high-quality textual annotations, w
Missing modality issues are common in real-world applications, arising from factors such as equipment failures and privacy concerns. When fine-tuning pre-trained models on downstream datasets with missing modalities, performance can degrade significantly. Current methods often aggregate various miss…
To enhance the interpretability of multimodal unified representations, many studies have focused on discrete unified representations. These efforts typically start with contrastive learning and gradually extend to the disentanglement of modal information, achieving solid multimodal discrete unified…
Bridge models in image restoration construct a diffusion process from degraded to clear images. However, existing methods typically require training a bridge model from scratch for each specific type of degradation, resulting in high computational costs and limited performance. This work aims to eff…
Large language models (LLMs) have significantly enhanced cross-modal understanding capabilities by integrating visual encoders with textual embeddings, giving rise to multimodal large language models (MLLMs). However, these models struggle with non-natural images such as geometric and charts, partic…
To address the deficiencies in chart types and the limited scope of chart tasks in existing datasets, we conducted a comprehensive review of current data collection methodologies. By integrating manual annotation with data generation leveraging GPT-4, we developed a dataset that includes 21 diverse…
Recent research in the domain of multimodal unified representations predominantly employs codebook as representation forms, utilizing Vector Quantization(VQ) for quantization, yet there has been insufficient exploration of other quantization representation forms. Our work explores more precise quant…
We introduce a novel, training-free approach for enhancing alignment in Transformer-based Text-Guided Diffusion Models (TGDMs). Existing TGDMs often struggle to generate semantically aligned images, particularly when dealing with complex text prompts or multi-concept attribute binding challenges. Pr…
In observational studies, balancing covariates in different treatment groups is essential to estimate treatment effects. One of the most commonly used methods for such purposes is weighting. The performance of this class of methods usually depends on strong regularity conditions for the underlying m…
