Benchmarking Agent Memory in Interdependent Multi-Session Agentic Tasks

ICML 2026poster

Existing evaluations of agents with memory typically assess **memorization** and **action** in isolation. One class of benchmarks evaluates memorization by testing recall of past conversations or text but fails to capture how memory is used to guide future decisions. Another class focuses on agents …

Controlling Thinking Speed in Reasoning Models

NeurIPS 2025spotlight

Human cognition is theorized to operate in two modes: fast, intuitive System 1 thinking and slow, deliberate System 2 thinking. While current Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) excel at System 2 thinking, their inability to perform fast thinking leads to high computational overhead and latency. In this w…

Exploring Kolmogorov-Arnold networks for realistic image sharpness assessment

ICASSP 2025accepted

Score prediction is crucial in evaluating realistic image sharpness based on collected informative features. Recently, Kolmogorov-Arnold networks (KANs) have been developed and witnessed remarkable success in data fitting. This study introduces the Taylor series-based KAN (TaylorKAN). Then, differen…

ROUTE: Robust Multitask Tuning and Collaboration for Text-to-SQL

ICLR 2025poster

Despite the significant advancements in Text-to-SQL (Text2SQL) facilitated by large language models (LLMs), the latest state-of-the-art techniques are still trapped in the in-context learning of closed-source LLMs (e.g., GPT-4), which limits their applicability in open scenarios. To address this ch…

Rethinking Out-of-Distribution Detection on Imbalanced Data Distribution

NeurIPS 2024poster

Detecting and rejecting unknown out-of-distribution (OOD) samples is critical for deployed neural networks to void unreliable predictions. In real-world scenarios, however, the efficacy of existing OOD detection methods is often impeded by the inherent imbalance of in-distribution (ID) data, which c…

Category-Extensible Out-of-Distribution Detection via Hierarchical Context Descriptions

NeurIPS 2023poster

The key to OOD detection has two aspects: generalized feature representation and precise category description. Recently, vision-language models such as CLIP provide significant advances in both two issues, but constructing precise category descriptions is still in its infancy due to the absence of u…

Optimal Parameter and Neuron Pruning for Out-of-Distribution Detection

NeurIPS 2023poster

For a machine learning model deployed in real world scenarios, the ability of detecting out-of-distribution (OOD) samples is indispensable and challenging. Most existing OOD detection methods focused on exploring advanced training skills or training-free tricks to prevent the model from yielding ove…

Uncertainty-aware Unsupervised Multi-Object Tracking

ICCV 2023poster

Without manually annotated identities, unsupervised multi-object trackers are inferior to learning reliable feature embeddings. It causes the similarity-based inter-frame association stage also be error-prone, where an uncertainty problem arises. The frame-by-frame accumulated uncertainty prevents t…

SLV: Spatial Likelihood Voting for Weakly Supervised Object Detection

CVPR 2020poster

Based on the framework of multiple instance learning (MIL), tremendous works have promoted the advances of weakly supervised object detection (WSOD). However, most MIL-based methods tend to localize instances to their discriminative parts instead of the whole content. In this paper, we propose a spa…
