Effectively handling long contexts is challenging for Large Language Models (LLMs) due to the rarity of long texts, high computational demands, and substantial forgetting of short-context abilities. Recent approaches have attempted to construct long contexts for instruction tuning, but these methods
To enhance the perception and reasoning capabilities of multimodal large language models in complex visual scenes, recent research has introduced agent-based workflows. In these works, MLLMs autonomously utilize image cropping tool to analyze regions of interest for question answering. While existin
Recent diffusion-based models have significantly improved inpainting quality. However, existing methods struggle with multi-task inpainting due to conflicting optimization objectives, and current datasets are typically limited to task-specific scenarios, hindering joint training. To address these ch
Text-guided image-to-image diffusion models excel in translating images based on textual prompts, allowing for precise and creative visual modifications. However, such a powerful technique can be misused for *spreading misinformation*, *infringing on copyrights*, and *evading content tracing*. This…
This paper presents the Semantic-aWarE spatial-tEmporal Tokenizer (SweetTok), a novel video tokenizer to overcome the limitations in current video tokenization methods for compacted yet effective discretization. Unlike previous approaches that process flattened local visual patches via direct discre…
Open-vocabulary semantic segmentation (OVSS) aims to segment images of arbitrary categories specified by class labels. While previous approaches relied on extensive image-text pairs or dense semantic annotations, recent training-free methods attempted to overcome these limitations by constructing se…
Recent advancements in in-context segmentation generalists have demonstrated significant success in performing various image segmentation tasks using a limited number of labeled example images. However, real-world applications present challenges due to the variability of support examples, which ofte…
Large-scale Vision Transformers have achieved promising performance on downstream tasks through feature pre-training. However, the performance of vanilla lightweight Vision Transformers (ViTs) is still far from satisfactory compared to that of recent lightweight CNNs or hybrid networks. In this pape…
Images produced by diffusion models are increasingly popular in digital artwork and visual marketing. However, such generated images might replicate content from existing ones and pose the challenge of content originality. Existing Image Copy Detection (ICD) models, though accurate in detecting hand…
Recently various optimization problems, such as Mixed Integer Linear Programming Problems (MILPs), have undergone comprehensive investigation, leveraging the capabilities of machine learning. This work focuses on learning-based solutions for efficiently solving the Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAPs…
As a manner to augment pretrained large language models (LLM), knowledge injection is critical to develop vertical domain large models and has been widely studied. While most current approaches, including parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) and block expansion methods, uniformly apply knowledge a…
Despite the success of diffusion-based customization methods on visual content creation increasing concerns have been raised about such techniques from both privacy and political perspectives. To tackle this issue several anti-customization methods have been proposed in very recent months predominan…
Infrared small target detection (ISTD) is critical to national security and has been extensively applied in military areas. ISTD aims to segment small target pixels from background. Most ISTD networks focus on designing feature extraction blocks or feature fusion modules, but rarely describe the IST…
The rapid advancement of large language models (LLMs) has accelerated the emergence of in-context learning (ICL) as a cutting-edge approach in the natural language processing domain. Recently ICL has been employed in visual understanding tasks such as semantic segmentation and image captioning yield…
Infrared small target detection (ISTD) is indispensable in remote sensing and military surveillance. Existing ISTD methods can discover regularly-shaped and clear objects well, but tend to overlook the tough-to-detect ones, such as targets with irregular shapes or blurry boundaries, causing inaccura…
Video action segmentation refers to the task of densely casting each video frame or short segment in an untrimmed video into some pre-specified action categories. Although recent years have witnessed a great promise in the development of action segmentation techniques.A large body of existing method…
Hair editing is an interesting and challenging problem in computer vision and graphics. Many existing methods require well-drawn sketches or masks as conditional inputs for editing, however these interactions are neither straightforward nor efficient. In order to free users from the tedious interact…
Transformers have achieved great success in pluralistic image inpainting recently. However, we find existing transformer based solutions regard each pixel as a token, thus suffer from information loss issue from two aspects: 1) They downsample the input image into much lower resolutions for efficien…
"Intra-frame inconsistency has been proved to be effective for the generalization of face forgery detection. However, learning to focus on these inconsistency requires extra pixel-level forged location annotations. Acquiring such annotations is non-trivial. Some existing methods generate large-scale…
Semantic image synthesis, translating semantic layouts to photo-realistic images, is a one-to-many mapping problem. Though impressive progress has been recently made, diverse semantic synthesis that can efficiently produce semantic-level multimodal results, still remains a challenge. In this paper,…
