Large language models are becoming general knowledge engines for diverse applications. However, their computations are deeply entangled after training, resisting modularization which complicates interpretability, auditing, and long-term maintenance. We introduce Jet Expansions, a framework for expan…
Recently, transformer-based trackers have become the leading approach, surpassing traditional CNN-based trackers in accuracy. However, their high computational demands hinder their deployment on edge platforms, necessitating efficient solutions. To address this, we propose a novel Neural Architectur
Few-shot time series forecasting is fundamentally challenged by the scarcity of high-quality training data and the risk of severe overfitting. To address this issue, we propose ReAugment, a reinforcement learning (RL) framework that explicitly learns where and how to augment time series data. ReAugm…
Data curation is a critical yet underexplored component in large language model (LLM) training. Existing approaches (such as data selection and data mixing) operate in an offline paradigm, decoupled from the training process. This separation introduces extra engineering overhead and makes curated su…
LLM-based mobile GUI agents usually invoke large models for nearly every micro-action, making real-device automation slow even when similar workflows have been completed before. We present vSpeedUI, a public demo system that turns past GUI experience into fast executable plans. It organizes historic
The ability to selectively remove knowledge from LLMs is highly desirable. However, existing methods often struggle with balancing unlearning efficacy and retain model utility, and lack controllability at inference time to emulate base model behavior as if it had never seen the unlearned data. In th…
English, as a very high-resource language, enables the pretraining of high-quality large language models (LLMs). However, the same can not be said for most other languages, likely due to a gap in the quality and diversity of available multilingual pretraining corpora. In this work, we find that docu
Epitope identification is vital for antibody design yet challenging due to the inherent variability in antibodies. While many deep learning methods have been developed for general protein binding site prediction tasks, whether they work for epitope prediction remains an understudied research questio…
Pretrained large language models (LLMs) have emerged as a cornerstone in modern natural language processing, with their utility expanding to various applications and languages. However, the fine-tuning of multilingual LLMs, particularly for low-resource languages, is fraught with challenges steming…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated proficiency in addressing tasks that necessitate a combination of task planning and the usage of external tools, such as weather and calculator APIs. However, real-world industrial systems present prevalent challenges in task planning and tool usage: nu…
Pretrained language models (PLMs) are today the primary model for natural language processing. Despite their impressive downstream performance, it can be difficult to apply PLMs to new languages, a barrier to making their capabilities universally accessible. While prior work has shown it possible to…
Prior work shows that it is possible to expand pretrained Masked Language Models (MLMs) to new languages by learning a new set of embeddings, while keeping the transformer body frozen. Despite learning a small subset of parameters, this approach is not compute-efficient, as training the new embeddin…
"Detecting mass in mammogram is significant due to the high occurrence and mortality of breast cancer. In mammogram mass detection, modeling pairwise lesion correspondence explicitly is particularly important. However, most of the existing methods build relatively coarse correspondence and have not…
"This paper explores the point set representation for tubular structure extraction tasks. Compared with the traditional mask representation, the point set representation enjoys its flexibility and representation ability, which would not be restricted by the fixed grid as the mask. Inspired by this,…
Factorisation-based Models (FMs), such as DistMult, have enjoyed enduring success for Knowledge Graph Completion (KGC) tasks, often outperforming Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). However, unlike GNNs, FMs struggle to incorporate node features and generalise to unseen nodes in inductive settings. Our wo…
The embedding-based representation learning is commonly used in deep learning recommendation models to map the raw sparse features to dense vectors. The traditional embedding manner that assigns a uniform size to all features has two issues. First, the numerous features inevitably lead to a gigantic…
How do humans recognize an object in a piece of video? Due to the deteriorated quality of single frame, it may be hard for people to identify an occluded object in this frame by just utilizing information within one image. We argue that there are two important cues for humans to recognize objects in…
Verification and regression are two general methodologies for prediction in neural networks. Each has its own strengths: verification can be easier to infer accurately, and regression is more efficient and applicable to continuous target variables. Hence, it is often beneficial to carefully combine…
