Ordinal Regression (OR), which predicts the target values with inherent order, underpins a wide spectrum of applications from computer vision to recommendation systems. The intrinsic ordinal structure and non-stationary inter-class boundaries make OR fundamentally more challenging than conventional…
Accurate, high-resolution ocean forecasting is crucial for maritime operations and environmental monitoring. While traditional numerical models are capable of producing sub-daily, eddy-resolving forecasts, they are computationally intensive and face challenges in maintaining accuracy at fine spatial…
Existing parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods for large language models (LLMs), such as LoRA and PiSSA, constrain model updates to low-rank subspaces, limiting their expressiveness and leading to suboptimal performance on complex tasks. To address this, we introduce **H**igh-rank **D**istr
Effective and efficient task planning is essential for mobile robots, especially in applications like warehouse retrieval and environmental monitoring. These tasks often involve selecting one location from each of several target clusters, forming a Generalized Traveling Salesman Problem (GTSP) that…
Motivated by the first priority of safety in many real-world applications, we propose \textsc{MaxSafe}, a chance-constrained bi-level optimization framework for safe reinforcement learning. \textsc{MaxSafe} first minimizes the unsafe probability and then maximizes the return among the safest policie…
Multi-Modal Entity Alignment aims to discover identical entities across heterogeneous knowledge graphs. While recent studies have delved into fusion paradigms to represent entities holistically, the elimination of features irrelevant to alignment and modal inconsistencies is overlooked, which are ca…
A major challenge for ridesharing platforms is to guarantee profit and fairness simultaneously, especially in the presence of misaligned incentives of drivers and riders. We focus on the dispatching-pricing problem to maximize the total revenue while keeping both drivers and riders satisfied. We st…
