Bionic autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) have been prevalent in underwater equipment for their excel features. Manta rays have been widely studied due to their highly efficient and maneuverable pectoral fin propulsion. Traditional single-hinge actuation methods have impeded bionic pectoral fin a
Human motion generation from text prompts has made remarkable progress in recent years. However, existing methods primarily rely on either sequence-level or action-level descriptions due to the absence of fine-grained, part-level motion annotations. This limits their controllability over individual
The unique optical characteristics of the underwater environment, such as light refraction and loss of salient features, pose a significant challenge to traditional vision sensors, especially in the swarm operation scenario where multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) cooperate with the moth
Introducing **MARK**, the **M**ulti-st**A**ge **R**easoning framewor**K** for cultural value survey response simulation, designed to enhance the accuracy, steerability, and interpretability of large language models in this task. The system is inspired by the type dynamics theory in the MBTI psycholo
Dialogue agents powered by Large Language Models (LLMs) show superior performance in various tasks. Despite the better user understanding and human-like responses, their **lack of controllability** remains a key challenge, often leading to unfocused conversations or task failure. To address this, we…
Recent studies have highlighted the presence of cultural biases in Large Language Models (LLMs), yet often lack a robust methodology to dissect these phenomena comprehensively. Our work aims to bridge this gap by delving into the Food domain—a universally relevant yet culturally diverse aspect of hu…
This study proposes GLO, a general LiDAR-only odometry method with high efficiency and low drift. First, we propose a map data structure using multilevel voxels to improve map update efficiency. Each voxel node actively maintains plane features, minimizing redundant fitting and enhancing matching ef
Large-scale surveys are essential tools for informing social science research and policy, but running surveys is costly and time-intensive. If we could accurately simulate group-level survey results, this would therefore be very valuable to social science research. Prior work has explored the use of…
While Transformer-based pre-trained language models and their variants exhibit strong semantic representation capabilities, the question of comprehending the information gain derived from the additional components of PLMs remains an open question in this field. Motivated by recent efforts that prove…
Graph classification benchmarks, vital for assessing and developing graph neural network (GNN) models, have recently been scrutinized, as simple methods like MLPs have demonstrated comparable performance. This leads to an important question: Do these benchmarks effectively distinguish the advancemen…
Knowledge base question answering (KBQA) is a challenging task that aims to retrieve correct answers from large-scale knowledge bases. Existing attempts primarily focus on entity representation and final answer reasoning, which results in limited supervision for this task. Moreover, the relations, w…
Sign language recognition and translation first uses a recognition module to generate glosses from sign language videos and then employs a translation module to translate glosses into spoken sentences. Most existing works focus on the recognition step, while paying less attention to sign language tr…
End-to-end Spoken Language Understanding (SLU) is proposed to infer the semantic meaning directly from audio features without intermediate text representation. In this paper, we explore unsupervised pre-training for End-to-end SLU models by learning representations from large-scale raw audios. The p…
