Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) have shown remarkable success in visual understanding tasks. LMMs encode visual and textual inputs into tokens, which are then processed by Large Language Models (LLMs). However, the large number of visual tokens poses a major bottleneck for inference efficiency and me
A fundamental challenge in offline reinforcement learning is distributional shift. Scarce data or datasets dominated by out-of-distribution (OOD) areas exacerbate this issue. Our theoretical analysis and experiments show that the standard squared error objective induces a harmful TD cross covariance…
Multi-modal datasets are critical for a wide range of applications, but in practice, they often suffer from missing modalities. This motivates the task of Missing Modality Completion (MMC), which aims to reconstruct missing modalities from the available ones to fully exploit multi-modal data. While…
Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) perform strongly in complex reasoning tasks via Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting, but often suffer from verbose outputs, increasing computational overhead. Existing fine-tuning-based compression methods either operate post-hoc pruning, risking disruption to reasoning co
Conventional federated learning (FL) assumes a closed world with a fixed total number of clients. In contrast, new clients continuously join the FL process in real-world scenarios, introducing new knowledge. This raises two critical demands: detecting new knowledge, i.e., knowledge discovery, and in…
