Inspired by how humans communicate spatial information, language-guided geo-localization has gained significant traction for its intuitive and practical value. Despite this progress, most methods still rely on a static, one-shot retrieval paradigm, which fails to handle the ambiguity and incompleten
Modern slavery affects millions of people worldwide, and regulatory frameworks such as Modern Slavery Acts now require companies to publish detailed disclosures. However, these statements are often vague and inconsistent, making manual review time-consuming and difficult to scale. While NLP offers a
Recent advances in large vision models (LVMs) have shifted from modality-specific designs toward unified architectures that jointly process images, videos, and 3D data. However, existing unified LVMs primarily pursue functional integration, while overlooking the deeper goal of cross-vision synergy:
Multimodal Web Search Agents demonstrate a practically valuable capability by fusing information from diverse modalities (e.g., text and vision), retrieved iteratively from the internet, to address complex user queries. However, the visual modality is prone to information overload, and the noise con
Visual Place Recognition (VPR) requires robust retrieval of geotagged images despite large appearance, viewpoint, and environmental variation. Prior methods focus on descriptor fine-tuning or fixed sampling strategies yet neglect the dynamic interplay between spatial context and visual similarity d…
Deformable 3D Gaussian Splatting (3D-GS) is limited by missing intermediate motion information due to the low temporal resolution of RGB cameras. To address this, we introduce the first approach combining event cameras, which capture high-temporal-resolution, continuous motion data, with deformable…
Singing is a vital form of human emotional expression and social interaction, distinguished from speech by its richer emotional nuances and freer expressive style. Thus, investigating 3D facial animation driven by singing holds significant research value. Our work focuses on 3D singing facial animat…
Risk-sensitive linear quadratic regulator is one of the most fundamental problems in risk-sensitive optimal control. In this paper, we study online adaptive control of risk-sensitive linear quadratic regulator in the finite horizon episodic setting. We propose a simple least-squares greedy algorit…
Recent breakthroughs in singing voice synthesis (SVS) have heightened the demand for high-quality annotated datasets, yet manual annotation remains prohibitively labor-intensive and resource-intensive. Existing automatic singing annotation (ASA) methods, however, primarily tackle isolated aspects of…
The paper targets the challenging task of Ship License Plate (SLP) recognition. Existing methods for SLP recognition are hampered by the scarcity of large and publicly available datasets, leading to evaluations on small and non-representative datasets. To alleviate it, we have built a large dataset,…
The scarcity of high-quality and multi-task singing datasets significantly hinders the development of diverse controllable and personalized singing tasks, as existing singing datasets suffer from low quality, limited diversity of languages and singers, absence of multi-technique information and real…
Recently, CLIP has found practical utility in the domain of pixel-level zero-shot segmentation tasks. The present landscape features two-stage methodologies beset by issues such as intricate pipelines and elevated computational costs. While current one-stage approaches alleviate these concerns and…
The optimized certainty equivalent (OCE) is a family of risk measures that cover important examples such as entropic risk, conditional value-at-risk and mean-variance models. In this paper, we propose a new episodic risk-sensitive reinforcement learning formulation based on tabular Markov decision p…
