Data heterogeneity is a fundamental challenge in Federated Learning (FL), where induced model drift often results in "negative gains" for global models on data-abundant clients, with performance falling below that of local training. To address this issue, we propose FedGain, a novel framework that o…
Existing Grammatical Error Correction (GEC) systems suffer from limited reference diversity, leading to underestimated evaluation and restricted model generalization. To address this issue, we introduce the Judge of Edit-Level Validity (JELV), an automated framework to validate correction edits fro
While text-to-image models like GPT-4o-Image and FLUX are rapidly proliferating, they often encounter challenges such as hallucination, bias, and the production of unsafe, low-quality output. To effectively address these issues, it is crucial to align these models with desired behaviors based on fee…
Analyzing ancient manuscripts has traditionally been a labor-intensive and time-consuming task for philologists. While recent advancements in LMMs have demonstrated their potential across diverse domains, their effectiveness in manuscript study remains underexplored. In this paper, we introduce MS-B…
Several planners have been proposed to compute robot paths that reach desired goal regions while avoiding obstacles. However, these methods fail when all pathways to the goal are blocked. In such cases, the robot must reason about how to reconfigure the environment to access task-relevant regions-a
Vulnerability classification is a crucial task in software security analysis, essential for identifying and mitigating potential security risks. Learning-based methods often perform poorly due to the long-tail distribution of vulnerability classification datasets. Recent approaches try to address th…
To protect privacy and meet legal regulations, federated learning (FL) has gained significant attention for training speech-to-text (S2T) systems, including automatic speech recognition (ASR) and speech translation (ST). However, the commonly used FL approach (i.e., FEDAVG) in S2T tasks typically su…
Implicit neural representation has paved the way for new approaches to dynamic scene reconstruction. Nonetheless cutting-edge dynamic neural rendering methods rely heavily on these implicit representations which frequently struggle to capture the intricate details of objects in the scene. Furthermor…
Natural languages show a tendency to minimize the linear distance between heads and their dependents in a sentence, known as dependency length minimization (DLM). Such a preference, however, has not been consistently replicated with neural agent simulations. Comparing the behavior of models with tha…
"Restoring ancient manuscripts fragments, such as those from Dunhuang, is crucial for preserving human historical culture. However, their worldwide dispersal and the shifts in cultural and historical contexts pose significant restoration challenges. Traditional archaeological efforts primarily focus…
Philology, the study of ancient manuscripts, demands years of professional training in ex-tensive knowledge memorization and manual textual retrieval. Despite these requirements align closely with strengths of recent successful Large Language Models (LLMs), the scarcity of high-quality, specialized…
Scientific literature serves as a high-quality corpus, supporting a lot of Natural Language Processing (NLP) research. However, existing datasets are centered around the English language, which restricts the development of Chinese scientific NLP. In this work, we present CSL, a large-scale Chinese S…
