Vision Transformers (ViTs) have gained significant attention and widespread adoption due to their impressive performance in various computer vision tasks. However, in practice, their substantial computational overhead often leads to high inference latency and increased overheads when deployed on res
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have emerged as a dominant paradigm for graph classification. Specifically, most existing GNNs mainly rely on the message passing strategy between neighbor nodes, where the expressivity is limited by the 1-dimensional Weisfeiler-Lehman (1-WL) test. Although a number of k
The rapid proliferation of smart-city ecosystems has significantly amplified the demand for Li-ion batteries, which now serve as the primary energy source for sustainable transportation systems such as e-bikes. Ensuring battery safety and optimal performance is crucial, yet challenging due to comple
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models dramatically expand model capacity and achieve remarkable performance without increasing per-token compute. However, can MoEs surpass dense architectures under strictly equal resource constraints — that is, when the total parameter count, training compute, an…
Session-based recommendation aims to predict users’ next actions by modeling their ongoing interaction sequences, particularly in scenarios where long-term user profiles are unavailable. While existing methods have achieved promising results by leveraging sequential and graph-based structures, they
Stringent regulations like General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) mandate that an application
Electric bicycles (e-bikes) have become the dominant mode of transportation in China’s urban instant delivery industry. However, many riders lack the experience to navigate complex traffic networks and diverse road conditions, leading to reduced delivery efficiency. To address this issue, we present
Recent time series modeling faces a sharp divide between numerical generation and semantic understanding, with research showing that generation models often rely on superficial pattern matching, while understanding-oriented models struggle with high-fidelity numerical output. Although unified multim…
Recently, multi-modal embedding methods have flourished in entity alignment. As state-of-the-art approaches evolve rapidly, visual modality (i.e., images) missing emerges as a critical challenge. While visual modality typically offers the most informative signals in multi-modal entity alignment (MME
Macro placement, which involves optimizing the positions of modules, is a critical phase in modern integrated circuit design and significantly influences chip performance. The growing complexity of integrated circuits demands increasingly sophisticated placement solutions. Existing approaches have e…
With the proliferation of multi-modal data, safe and efficient multi-modal hashing retrieval has become a pressing research challenge, particularly due to concerns over data privacy during centralized processing. To address this, we propose Prototype-based Federated Multi-modal Hashing (PFMH), an in…
E-bikes (EBs) are a key transportation mode in urban area, especially for couriers of delivery platforms, but underdeveloped EB systems can hinder courier's productivity due to limited battery capacity. Battery-swapping stations address this issue by enabling riders to exchange depleted batteries fo
Graph Transformers (GTs) have emerged as powerful tools for handling graph-structured data through global attention mechanisms. While GTs can effectively capture long-range dependencies, they introduce difficulties in optimization due to their complex, non-differentiable operators, which cannot be d
Text-to-Time Series generation holds significant potential to address challenges such as data sparsity, imbalance, and limited availability of multimodal time series data across domains. While diffusion models have achieved remarkable success in Text-to-X (e.g., vision and audio data) generation, th
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated exceptional success across a variety of tasks, particularly in natural language processing, leading to their growing integration into numerous facets of daily life. However, this widespread deployment has raised substantial privacy concerns, especially
Momentum is a widely used technique for gradient-based optimizers in deep learning. Here, we propose a decaying momentum (DEMON) hyperparameter rule. We conduct large-scale empirical analysis of momentum decay methods for modern neural network optimization and compare to the most popular learning ra…
Virtual try-on (VTON) aims at fitting target clothes to reference person images, which is widely adopted in e-commerce. Existing VTON approaches can be narrowly categorized into Parser-Based (PB) and Parser-Free (PF) by whether relying on the parser information to mask the persons’clothes and synthe…
The interaction of multiple drugs could lead to serious events, which causes injuries and huge medical costs. Accurate prediction of drug-drug interaction (DDI) events can help clinicians make effective decisions and establish appropriate therapy programs. Recently, many AI-based techniques have bee…
Detecting fraud users, who fraudulently promote certain target items, is a challenging issue faced by e-commerce platforms. Generally, many fraud users have different spam behaviors simultaneously, e.g. spam transactions, clicks, reviews and so on. Existing solutions have two main limitations: 1) th…
Representation learning of knowledge graphs aims to project both entities and relations as vectors in a continuous low-dimensional space. Relation Hierarchical Structure (RHS), which is constructed by a generalization relationship named subRelationOf between relations, can improve the overall perfor…
In this work we consider the one-dimensional (1D) inverse scattering problem of super-resolving the location of discrete point scatters satisfying the 1D Helmholtz equation. This inverse problem has important applications in the detection of shunt faults in electrical transmission lines and leaks in…
Incentive mechanisms for crowdsourcing are designed to incentivize financially self-interested workers to generate and report high-quality labels. Existing mechanisms are often developed as one-shot static solutions, assuming a certain level of knowledge about worker models (expertise levels, costs…
