Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) employing the Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) structure exhibit encouraging results in visual language tasks. However, they struggle with catastrophic forgetting due to a lack of effective collaboration among experts and negative transfer across tasks. This happens
Vision Language Models (VLMs) have exhibited remarkable generalization capabilities, yet their robustness in dynamic real-world scenarios remains largely unexplored. To systematically evaluate VLMs' robustness to real-world 3D variations, we propose AdvDreamer, the first framework capable of generat…
Accurate prediction of ADMET (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity) properties is crucial in drug development, as these properties directly impact a drug's efficacy and safety. However, existing multi-task learning models often face challenges related to noise interference a
Existing research in Stock Trend Prediction (STP) focuses on temporal features extracted from a temporal sequence of stock data with a look-back window, which frequently leads to the omission of important periodic patterns, such as weekly and monthly variations in stock prices. Furthermore, these me
The recent advancements in large foundation models have driven the success of open-set image segmentation, a task focused on segmenting objects beyond predefined categories. Among various prompt types (such as points, boxes, texts, and visual references), visual reference segmentation stands out for…
Federated learning (FL) has rapidly evolved as a promising paradigm that enables collaborative model training across distributed participants without exchanging their local data. Despite its broad applications in fields such as computer vision, graph learning, and natural language processing, the de…
While Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have achieved remarkable performance on various machine learning tasks on graph data, they also raised questions regarding their transparency and interpretability. Recently, there have been extensive research efforts to explain the decision-making process of GNNs.…
The open-vocabulary image segmentation task involves partitioning images into semantically meaningful segments and classifying them with flexible text-defined categories. The recent vision-based foundation models such as the Segment Anything Model (SAM) have shown superior performance in generating…
Recently, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have significantly advanced the performance of machine learning tasks on graphs. However, this technological breakthrough makes people wonder: how does a GNN make such decisions, and can we trust its prediction with high confidence? When it comes to some critic…
Recently, some studies have shown that semantic and distortion representations both benefit the evaluation of image quality. However, the images of existing synthetic distortion databases are annotated with subjective quality scores and distortion types, lacking labels with semantic objects. Therefo…
Image-based virtual try-on systems with the goal of transferring a desired clothing item onto the corresponding region of a person have made great strides recently, but challenges remain in generating realistic looking images that preserve both body and clothing details. Here we present a new virtua…
A novel learnable dictionary encoding layer is proposed in this paper for end-to-end language identification. It is inline with the conventional GMM i-vector approach both theoretically and practically. We imitate the mechanism of traditional GMM training and Supervector encoding procedure on the to…
A novel interpretable end-to-end learning scheme for language identification is proposed. It is in line with the classical GMM i-vector methods both theoretically and practically. In the end-to-end pipeline, a general encoding layer is employed on top of the frontend CNN, so that it can encode the v…
