Mosquito Species Classification (MSC) is crucial for vector surveillance and disease control. The collection of mosquito bioacoustic data is often limited by mosquito activity seasons and fieldwork. Mosquito recordings across regions, habitats, and laboratories often show non-biological variations f…
Generative foundation models (GenFMs), such as large language models and text-to-image systems, have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in various downstream applications. As they are increasingly deployed in high-stakes applications, assessing their trustworthiness has become both a critical nece…
Many real-world user queries (e.g. *"How do to make egg fried rice?"*) could benefit from systems capable of generating responses with both textual steps with accompanying images, similar to a cookbook. Models designed to generate interleaved text and images face challenges in ensuring consistency w…
Self-supervised learning (SSL) vision encoders learn high-quality image representations and thus have become a vital part of developing vision modality of large vision language models (LVLMs). Due to the high cost of training such encoders, pre-trained encoders are widely shared and deployed into ma…
Pixel-wise regression tasks (e.g., monocular depth estimation (MDE) and optical flow estimation (OFE)) have been widely involved in our daily life in applications like autonomous driving, augmented reality and video composition. Although certain applications are security-critical or bear societal si…
