Federated foundation models represent a new paradigm to jointly fine-tune pre-trained foundation models across clients. It is still a challenge to fine-tune foundation models for a small group of new users or specialized scenarios, which typically involve limited data compared to the large-scale dat
Existing video editing methods face a critical trade-off: expert models offer precision but rely on task-specific priors like masks, hindering unification; conversely, unified temporal in-context learning models are mask-free but lack explicit spatial cues, leading to weak instruction-to-region mapp
Ocean exploration places high demands on autonomous underwater vehicles, especially when there's observation delay. We propose age of information optimized Markov decision process (AoI-MDP) to enhance underwater tasks by modeling observation delay as signal delay and including it in the state space.…
Missing values are ubiquitous in multivariate time series (MTS) data, posing significant challenges for accurate analysis and downstream applications. In recent years, deep learning-based methods have successfully handled missing data by leveraging complex temporal dependencies and learned data dist
We propose ERFSL, an efficient reward function searcher using large language models (LLMs) for custom-environment, multi-objective reinforcement learning (RL). ERFSL generates reward components based on explicit user requirements and rectifies them, and iteratively optimizes the weights of these com…
Effectively leveraging private datasets remains a significant challenge in developing foundation models. Federated Learning (FL) has recently emerged as a collaborative framework that enables multiple users to fine-tune these models while mitigating data privacy risks. Meanwhile, Low-Rank Adaptation
One main challenge in time series anomaly detection for industrial IoT lies in the complex spatio-temporal couplings within multivariate data. However, as traditional anomaly detection methods focus on modeling spatial or temporal dependencies independently, resulting in suboptimal representation le…
Target speaker extraction focuses on isolating a specific speaker's voice from an audio mixture containing multiple speakers. To provide information about the target speaker's identity, prior works have utilized clean audio samples as conditioning inputs. However, such clean audio examples are not a…
Time series data are foundational in finance, healthcare, and energy domains. However, most existing methods and datasets remain focused on a narrow spectrum of tasks, such as forecasting or anomaly detection. To bridge this gap, we introduce Time Series Multi-Task Question Answering (Time-MQA), a u…
The application of artificial intelligence technology has greatly enhanced and fortified the safety of energy pipelines, particularly in safeguarding against external threats. The predominant methods involve the integration of intelligent sensors to detect external vibration, enabling the identifica…
Recently, foundation models, particularly large language models (LLMs), have demonstrated an impressive ability to adapt to various tasks by fine-tuning diverse instruction data. Notably, federated foundation models (FedFM) emerge as a privacy preservation method to fine-tune models collaboratively…
Efficient and accurate bird sound classification is of important for ecology, habitat protection and scientific research, as it plays a central role in monitoring the distribution and abundance of species. However, prevailing methods typically demand extensively labeled audio datasets and have highl…
The introduction of neural radiance fields has greatly improved the effectiveness of view synthesis for monocular videos. However, existing algorithms face difficulties when dealing with uncontrolled or lengthy scenarios, and require extensive training time specific to each new scenario. To tackle t…
Oil and gas pipelines are known as the backbone of global energy, and securing their safety is crucial for energy supply. In this study, we utilized a novel machine learning method based on the spatiotemporal features of distributed optical fiber sensor signals to monitor the safety of oil and gas p…
