Plan, Decouple, Assimilate: Physics-Aware Object Insertion in Remote Sensing Imagery

ICML 2026poster

Object insertion has emerged as a promising augmentation paradigm to solve the label scarcity and long-tail distributions in remote sensing. It aims to generate training samples by synthesizing target instances onto real backgrounds. However, existing methods have three critical issues: (i) Semantic…

DecoupleSearch: Decouple Planning and Search via Hierarchical Reward Modeling

EMNLP 2025

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems have emerged as a pivotal methodology for enhancing Large Language Models (LLMs) through the dynamic integration of external knowledge. To further improve RAG’s flexibility, Agentic RAG introduces autonomous agents into the workflow. However, Agentic RAG

Unveil: Unified Visual-Textual Integration and Distillation for Multi-modal Document Retrieval

ACL 2025long

Document retrieval in real-world scenarios faces significant challenges due to diverse document formats and modalities. Traditional text-based approaches rely on tailored parsing techniques that disregard layout information and are prone to errors, while recent parsing-free visual methods often stru…

Retrieved In-Context Principles from Previous Mistakes

EMNLP 2024main

In-context learning (ICL) has been instrumental in adapting large language models (LLMs) to downstream tasks using correct input-output examples. Recent advances have attempted to improve model performance through principles derived from mistakes, yet these approaches suffer from lack of customizati…

Towards Verifiable Text Generation with Evolving Memory and Self-Reflection

EMNLP 2024main

Despite the remarkable ability of large language models (LLMs) in language comprehension and generation, they often suffer from producing factually incorrect information, also known as hallucination. A promising solution to this issue is verifiable text generation, which prompts LLMs to generate con…

Model-enhanced Vector Index

NeurIPS 2023poster

Embedding-based retrieval methods construct vector indices to search for document representations that are most similar to the query representations. They are widely used in document retrieval due to low latency and decent recall performance. Recent research indicates that deep retrieval solutions o…

A Neural Corpus Indexer for Document Retrieval

NeurIPS 2022accept

Current state-of-the-art document retrieval solutions mainly follow an index-retrieve paradigm, where the index is hard to be directly optimized for the final retrieval target. In this paper, we aim to show that an end-to-end deep neural network unifying training and indexing stages can significantl…
