This paper challenges the dominance of continuous pipelines in visual generation. We systematically investigate the performance gap between discrete and continuous methods. Contrary to the belief that discrete tokenizers are intrinsically inferior, we demonstrate that the disparity arises primarily …
Context management enables agentic models to solve long-horizon tasks through iterative summarization of previous interaction histories. However, this process typically incurs substantial decoding overhead for the extra summarization tokens, which significantly affect the end-to-end response latency…
Recent progress in multi-turn reinforcement learning (RL) has significantly improved reasoning LLMs' performances on complex interactive tasks. Despite advances in stabilization techniques such as fine-grained credit assignment and trajectory filtering, instability remains pervasive and often leads …
Recommendation explanation systems have become increasingly vital with the widespread adoption of recommender systems. However, existing recommendation explanation evaluation benchmarks suffer from limited item diversity, impractical user profiling requirements, and unreliable and unscalable evaluat…
Aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preferences relies heavily on high-quality reward models. However, existing approaches struggle with two critical challenges: noisy preference labels and the varying importance of preference samples. We introduce DORM, a method that enhances reward mo
Dynamic functional brain networks (DFBNs) are powerful tools in neuroscience research. Recent studies reveal that DFBNs contain heterogeneous neural nodes with more extensive connections and more drastic temporal changes, which play pivotal roles in coordinating the reorganization of the brain. More…
The context about trips and users from mobility data is valuable for mobile service providers to understand their customers and improve their services. Existing inference methods require a large number of labels for training, which is hard to meet in practice. In this paper, we study a more practica…
A real-world text corpus sometimes comprises not only text documents, but also semantic links between them (e.g., academic papers in a bibliographic network are linked by citations and co-authorships).Text documents and semantic connections form a text-rich network, which empowers a wide range of do…
Providing explanations for deep neural networks (DNNs) is essential for their use in domains wherein the interpretability of decisions is a critical prerequisite. Despite the plethora of work on interpreting DNNs, most existing solutions offer interpretability in an ad hoc, one-shot, and static mann…
