Federated learning has emerged as a potential solution to overcome the bottleneck posed by the near exhaustion of public text data in training large language models. There are claims that the strategy of exchanging gradients allows using text data including private information. Although recent studi…
Massive requirement for pixel-wise annotations in histopathological image segmentation poses a significant challenge, leading to increasing interest in Unsupervised Semantic Segmentation (USS) as a viable alternative. Pre-trained model-based methods have been widely used in USS, achieving promising…
Attention-based speech synthesis methods often suffer from dispersed attention across the entire input sequence, resulting in poor local modeling and unnatural Mandarin synthesized speech. To address these issues, we present FastMandarin, a rapid and natural Mandarin speech synthesis framework that…
Deep co-training has been introduced to semi-supervised segmentation and achieves impressive results, yet few studies have explored the working mechanism behind it. In this work, we revisit the core assumption that supports co-training: multiple compatible and conditionally independent views. By the…
The decentralized and privacy-preserving nature of federated learning (FL) makes it vulnerable to backdoor attacks aiming to manipulate the behavior of the resulting model on specific adversary-chosen inputs. However, most existing defenses based on statistical differences take effect only against s…
Self-attention-based networks have obtained impressive performance in parallel training and global context modeling. However, it is weak in local dependency capturing, especially for data with strong local correlations such as utterances. Therefore, we will mine linguistic information of the origina…
