Using Artificial Intelligence to improve teaching and learning benefits greater adaptivity and scalability in education. Knowledge Tracing (KT) is recognized for student modeling task due to its superior performance and application potential in education. To this end, we conceptualize and investigat
Aligning Large Language Models (LLMs) with the diverse spectrum of human values remains a central challenge: preference-based methods often fail to capture deeper motivational principles. Value-based approaches offer a more principled path, yet three gaps persist– extraction often ignores hierarchic…
Classifier guidance is a widely adopted technique in diffusion language models, used to steer generation toward desired attributes. However, such guidance often introduces instability during the generation process, where token-level updates fluctuate across timesteps. We identify and formally charac…
Visual personalization is essential in user-facing AI systems such as smart homes and healthcare, where aligning model behavior with user-centric concepts is critical. However, recent large Vision-Language Models (VLMs), despite their broad applicability, remain underexplored in their ability to ada…
Despite significant advancements in Vision-Language Models (VLMs), the performance of existing VLMs remains hindered by object hallucination, a critical challenge to achieving accurate visual understanding. To address this issue, we propose SECOND: Selective and Contrastive Decoding, a novel approac…
De-identification (de-ID) refers to removing the association between a set of identifying data and the data subject. In clinical data management, the de-ID of Protected Health Information (PHI) is critical for patient confidentiality. However, state-of-the-art de-ID models show poor generalization o…
This letter presents a viable framework that integrates control, estimation of unknown payload, safety management, and obstacle avoidance for cooperative transportation in unknown environments using multiple aerial manipulators. Unlike existing approaches for cooperative manipulation based on force
