GS-UVCE: Gaussian Splatting-Driven Unsupervised Visual Consistency Enhancement for Underwater 3D Scene Reconstruction

Underwater 3D scene reconstruction is critical for the operation of underwater robotics, yet remains highly challenging due to the semi-transparent water medium, which introduces optical distortions, light scattering, and severe visibility degradation. Therefore, effective underwater image enhanceme…

Generalist Graph Anomaly Detection via Prototype-Based Distillation

Driven by the pressing demand for graph anomaly detection (GAD) in high-stakes domains, the generalist GAD paradigm, which trains a single detector transferable across new graphs, has recently gained growing attention. However, existing methods often rely on scarce and costly annotations for trainin…

HiMAP: History-Aware Map-Occupancy Prediction with Fallback

One Tool Is Enough: Reinforcement Learning of LLM Agents for Repository-Level Code Navigation

Locating files and functions requiring modification in large software repositories is challenging due to their scale and structural complexity. Existing LLM-based methods typically treat this as a repository-level retrieval task and rely on multiple auxiliary tools, which often overlook code executi…

Strategic Navigation or Stochastic Search? How Agents and Humans Reason Over Document Collections

Multimodal agents offer a compelling path to automating complex document-intensive workflows, yet a critical question remains: do these architectures demonstrate genuine strategic reasoning, or simply conduct stochastic trial-and-error search? To address this, we introduce Agentic Document VQA, a be…

Global Context MambaVision for EEG-based Emotion Recognition

Emotion recognition tasks based on physiological signals require the simultaneous capture of local features and global correlations of these signals. Although transformer-based models are widely used due to their superior ability to integrate information, their quadratic computational complexity lim…

Manhattan Self-Attention Diffusion Residual Networks with Dynamic Bias Rectification for BCI-based Few-Shot Learning

The distribution biases and scarcity of samples in multi-source data present significant challenges for few-shot learning (FSL) tasks based on brain-computer interface (BCI). Recent efforts have explored the application of diffusion mechanisms in FSL, typically utilizing labeled data to augment the…

Out-of-Distribution Generalization on Graphs via Progressive Inference

The development and evaluation of graph neural networks (GNNs) generally follow the independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) assumption. Yet this assumption is often untenable in practice due to the uncontrollable data generation mechanism. In particular, when the data distribution shows a s…

Revisiting Graph Contrastive Learning on Anomaly Detection: A Structural Imbalance Perspective

The superiority of graph contrastive learning (GCL) has prompted its application to anomaly detection tasks for more powerful risk warning systems. Unfortunately, existing GCL-based models tend to excessively prioritize overall detection performance while neglecting robustness to structural imbalanc…

Toward Efficient Kernel-Based Solvers for Nonlinear PDEs

We introduce a novel kernel learning framework toward efficiently solving nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). In contrast to the state-of-the-art kernel solver that embeds differential operators within kernels, posing challenges with a large number of collocation points, our approach el…

Efficient Toxic Content Detection by Bootstrapping and Distilling Large Language Models

Toxic content detection is crucial for online services to remove inappropriate content that violates community standards. To automate the detection process, prior works have proposed varieties of machine learning (ML) approaches to train Language Models (LMs) for toxic content detection. However, bo…

Retrieval-based Question Answering with Passage Expansion Using a Knowledge Graph

Recent advancements in dense neural retrievers and language models have led to large improvements in state-of-the-art approaches to open-domain Question Answering (QA) based on retriever-reader architectures. However, issues stemming from data quality and imbalances in the use of dense embeddings ha…

Meta Learning of Interface Conditions for Multi-Domain Physics-Informed Neural Networks

Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) are emerging as popular mesh-free solvers for partial differential equations (PDEs). Recent extensions decompose the domain, apply different PINNs to solve the problem in each subdomain, and stitch the subdomains at the interface. Thereby, they can further al…

Nonparametric Embeddings of Sparse High-Order Interaction Events

High-order interaction events are common in real-world applications. Learning embeddings that encode the complex relationships of the participants from these events is of great importance in knowledge mining and predictive tasks. Despite the success of existing approaches, e.g. Poisson tensor factor…
