Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated strong capabilities in robotic manipulation, but their performance degrades significantly in long-horizon tasks due to cumulative error propagation. This limitation largely arises from static feature fusion mechanisms that rely on fixed weights t
A successful prompt-based finetuning method should have three prerequisites: task compatibility, input compatibility, and evidence abundance. Bearing this belief in mind, this paper designs a novel prompt-based method (called DLM-SCS) for few-shot text classification, which utilizes the discriminati…
The information bottleneck principle provides an information-theoretic method for learning a good representation as a trade-off between conciseness and predictive ability, which can reduce information redundancy, eliminate irrelevant and superfluous features, and thus enhance the in-domain generaliz…
Graph convolutional networks have been successfully applied to the task of event detection. However, existing works rely heavily on a fixed syntactic parse tree structure from an external parser. In addition, the information content extracted for aggregation is determined simply by the (syntactic) e…
Discrimination between antonyms and synonyms is an important and challenging NLP task. Antonyms and synonyms often share the same or similar contexts and thus are hard to make a distinction. This paper proposes two underlying hypotheses and employs the mixture-of-experts framework as a solution. It…
Causal reasoning aims to predict the future scenarios that may be caused by the observed actions. However, existing causal reasoning methods deal with causalities on the word level. In this paper, we propose a novel event-level causal reasoning method and demonstrate its use in the task of effect ge…
For obstacles moving with high speeds, existing motion planning methods can rarely guarantee collision avoidance. This paper proposes a viable two-period velocity obstacle algorithm where one period predicts potential collisions within a limited time horizon, and the second period foresees collision…
