Autoregressive models generate sequences monotonically, where any sampled token, even if erroneous or sub-optimal, becomes a permanent condition for all subsequent steps. This structural limitation means that autoregressive models cannot revisit or revise earlier decisions, i.e., a capability essent…
The exponential growth of data-driven systems and AI technologies has intensified the demand for high-quality web-sourced datasets. While existing datasets have proven valuable, conventional web data collection approaches face significant limitations in terms of human effort and scalability. Curre…
As the market for illicit drugs remains extremely profitable, major online platforms have become direct-to-consumer intermediaries for illicit drug trafficking participants. These online activities raise significant social concerns that require immediate actions. Existing approaches to combat this c…
Among the existing self-supervised learning (SSL) methods for graphs, graph contrastive learning (GCL) frameworks usually automatically generate supervision by transforming the same graph into different views through graph augmentation operations. The computation-efficient augmentation techniques e…
Graph contrastive learning (GCL), leveraging graph augmentations to convert graphs into different views and further train graph neural networks (GNNs), has achieved considerable success on graph benchmark datasets. Yet, there are still some gaps in directly applying existing GCL methods to real-worl…
As cyberattacks caused by malware have proliferated during the pandemic, building an automatic system to detect COVID-19 themed malware in social coding platforms is in urgent need. The existing methods mainly rely on file content analysis while ignoring structured information among entities in soci…
Driven by the considerable profits, the crime of drug trafficking (a.k.a. illicit drug trading) has co-evolved with modern technologies, e.g., social media such as Instagram has become a popular platform for marketing and selling illicit drugs. The activities of online drug trafficking are nimble an…
