\textit{De novo} functional protein design aims to generate protein sequences that realize specified biochemical functions without relying on evolutionary templates, enabling broad applications in biotechnology and medicine. Existing approaches adopt either direct function-to-sequence mapping or dec…
Physics-based motion imitation is central to humanoid control, yet current evaluation metrics(e.g., MPJPE) only quantify imitation outcomes, not their underlying causes. This conflation obscures a critical diagnostic question: when imitation error occurs, does it stem from policy limitations or the …
Visual in-context learning (VICL) enables visual foundation models to handle multiple tasks by steering them with demonstrative prompts. The choice of such prompts largely influences VICL performance, standing out as a key challenge. Prior work has made substantial progress on prompt retrieval and r
Layer pruning is a viable technique for compressing large language models while achieving acceleration proportional to the pruning ratio. In this work, we identify that removing any layer induces a magnitude gap in hidden states, and demonstrate that a simple compensation operation leads to superior
The unlearning capability of LLMs is vital for ensuring compliance and safety, especially when removing sensitive knowledge from deployed models. Pre-filtering methods, enabling rapid deployment without parameter changes, are a prominent unlearning approach. However, they exhibit significant robustn…
State-of-the-art Large Multi-Modal Models (LMMs) have demonstrated exceptional capabilities in vision-language tasks. Despite their advanced functionalities, the performances of LMMs are still limited in challenging scenarios that require complex reasoning with multiple levels of visual information.…
Quantization is a key technique to reduce network size and computational complexity by representing the network parameters with a lower precision. Traditional quantization methods rely on access to original training data, which is often restricted due to privacy concerns or security challenges. Zero…
Sparse inertial measurement units (IMUs) provide a portable, low-cost solution for human motion tracking but struggle with error accumulation from drift and sensor noise when estimating joint position through time-based linear acceleration integration (i.e., indirect measurement). To address this,…
Zero-shot quantization (ZSQ) has emerged as an effective method to reduce model complexity and memory footprint without using original training data, thereby mitigating data privacy and security concerns during model deployment. Recently, Large-Kernel Convolutional Neural Networks (LKCNNs) have achi…
To deploy neural networks on clinical edge devices, quantization is the most commonly used method to compress the models, which requires a calibration set of hundreds of real images. However, due to privacy concerns, the scarcity of private histopathological images hinders the application of quantiz…
The rapid progress of foundation models has led to the prosperity of autonomous agents, which leverage the universal capabilities of foundation models to conduct reasoning, decision-making, and environmental interaction. However, the efficacy of agents remains limited when operating in intricate, re…
Quantization is an effective way to compress neural networks. By reducing the bit width of the parameters, the processing efficiency of neural network models at edge devices can be notably improved. Most conventional quantization methods utilize real datasets to optimize quantization parameters and…
