Hierarchical clustering is a fundamental machine-learning technique for grouping data points into dendrograms. However, existing hierarchical clustering methods encounter two primary challenges: 1) Most methods specify dendrograms without a global objective. 2) Graph-based methods often neglect the
We introduce SANA-Video, a small diffusion model that can efficiently generate videos up to 720×1280 resolution and minute-length duration. SANA-Video synthesizes high-resolution, high-quality and long videos with strong text-video alignment at a remarkably fast speed, deployable on RTX 5090 GPU. Tw…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have made remarkable progress in mathematical reasoning, but still continue to struggle with high-precision tasks like numerical computation and formal symbolic manipulation. Integrating external tools has emerged as a promising approach to bridge this gap. Despite recen…
Classical information theory, a cornerstone of artificial intelligence, is fundamentally limited by its local perspective, often analyzing pairwise interactions while ignoring the larger, hierarchical architecture of complex systems. Structural entropy (SE) presents a paradigm shift, extending Shann
The seminal work of \citep{dasgupta2016cost} has introduced a combinatorial cost function for hierarchical graph clustering that has inspired numerous follow-up studies adopting similar combinatorial approaches. In this paper, we investigate this problem from the \emph{information-theoretic} perspec
Overlap and hierarchy are two prevalent phenomena in clustering, and usually coexist in a single system. There are several studies on each of them separately, but it is unclear how to characterize and evaluate the hybrid structures yet. To address this issue, we initiate the study of hierarchical ov…
Diffusion-based generative methods have shown promising potential for modeling trajectories from offline reinforcement learning (RL) datasets, and hierarchical diffusion has been introduced to mitigate variance accumulation and computational challenges in long-horizon planning tasks. However, existi…
Uncovering cause-effect relationships from observational time series is fundamental to understanding complex systems. While many methods infer static causal graphs, real-world systems often exhibit *dynamic causality*—where relationships evolve over time. Accurately capturing these temporal dynamics…
Existing self-supervised methods in natural language processing (NLP), especially hierarchical text classification (HTC), mainly focus on self-supervised contrastive learning, extremely relying on human-designed augmentation rules to generate contrastive samples, which can potentially corrupt or dis…
In deep neural networks, better results can often be obtained by increasing the complexity of previously developed basic models. However, it is unclear whether there is a way to boost performance by decreasing the complexity of such models. Intuitively, given a problem, a simpler data structure come…
