As larger language models deliver stronger capabilities, their autoregressive inference becomes increasingly expensive. *Speculative decoding* accelerates generation by letting a fast draft propose tokens that the target model verifies in parallel. Yet under sampling ($T>0$), observed speedups consi…
We present FHAvatar, a novel framework for reconstructing 3D Gaussian avatars with composable face and hair components from an arbitrary number of views. Unlike previous approaches that couple facial and hair representations within a unified modeling process, we explicitly decouple two components in
Scaling up visual autoregressive models improves generation quality but incurs substantial inference costs. Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures mitigate this issue through sparse activation and have proven effective in large language models. However, training MoE models from scratch remains prohi…
Learning versatile, fine-grained representations from irregular event streams is pivotal yet nontrivial, primarily due to the heavy annotation that hinders scalability in dataset size, semantic richness, and application scope. To mitigate this dilemma, we launch a novel self-supervised pretraining m
Integrating the understanding and reasoning capabilities of Large Language Models (LLM) with the self-learning capabilities of Reinforcement Learning (RL) enables more reliable driving performance under complex driving conditions. There has been a lot of work exploring LLM-Dominated RL methods in th…
Evaluating the response quality of large language models (LLMs) for open-ended questions poses a significant challenge, especially given the subjectivity and multi-dimensionality of "quality" in natural language generation. Existing LLM evaluators often neglect that different scenarios require disti…
Realistic 3D full-body talking avatars hold great potential in AR, with applications ranging from e-commerce live streaming to holographic communication. Despite advances in 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) for lifelike avatar creation, existing methods struggle with fine-grained control of facial expre…
In this paper we delve into the nuanced challenge of tailoring the Segment Anything Models (SAMs) for integration with event data with the overarching objective of attaining robust and universal object segmentation within the event-centric domain. One pivotal issue at the heart of this endeavor is t…
