Detecting Out-Of-Distribution (OOD) samples in image classification is crucial for model reliability. With the rise of Vision-Language Models (VLMs), CLIP-OOD has become a research hotspot. However, we observe the Low Focus Attention phenomenon from the image encoders of CLIP, which means the attent
Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) face notable challenges when encountering multimodal knowledge conflicts, particularly under retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) frameworks, where the contextual information from external sources may contradict the model’s internal parametric knowledge, leading to unr
Beyond scratch coding, exploiting large-scale code repositories (e.g., GitHub) for practical tasks is vital in real-world software development, yet current benchmarks rarely evaluate code agents in such authentic, workflow-driven scenarios. To bridge this gap, we introduce GitTaskBench, a benchmark
Large Multimodal Models encode extensive factual knowledge in their pre-trained weights. However, its knowledge remains static and limited, unable to keep pace with real-world developments, which hinders continuous knowledge acquisition. Effective knowledge injection thus becomes critical, involving…
Effective communication is crucial for multi-agent cooperation in partially observable environments. However, a fundamental trilemma exists among task performance, communication efficiency, and human interpretability. To resolve this, we propose a multi-agent communication framework via $\textbf{G}$…
As real-world knowledge continues to evolve, the parametric knowledge acquired by multimodal models during pretraining becomes increasingly difficult to remain consistent with real-world knowledge. Existing research on multimodal knowledge updating focuses only on learning previously unknown knowled…
Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) represent a promising alternative to autoregressive language models, using bidirectional masked token prediction. Yet their susceptibility to privacy leakage via Membership Inference Attacks (MIA) remains critically underexplored. This paper presents the first system…
Understanding and reasoning over structured knowledge is a fundamental capability for intelligent systems. While Large Language Models (LLMs) have leveraged textual knowledge graphs for relational reasoning, linearizing graph structures into text often leads to token inefficiency and loss of higher-
Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) store vast amounts of pretrained knowledge but struggle to remain aligned with real-world updates, making it difficult to avoid capability degradation when acquiring evolving knowledge. Furthermore, most current work focuses on exploring static textual knowledge inject…
The Text-to-SQL capabilities of large language allow users to interact with databases using natural language. While current models struggle with handling complex queries, especially involving multi-table joins and reasoning. To address this gap, we propose to construct a model, namely SAC-SQL, with
Knowledge editing techniques have emerged as essential tools for updating the factual knowledge of large language models (LLMs) and multimodal models (LMMs), allowing them to correct outdated or inaccurate information without retraining from scratch. However, existing benchmarks for multimodal knowl…
The ultimate goal of code agents is to solve complex tasks autonomously. Although large language models (LLMs) have made substantial progress in code generation, real-world tasks typically demand full-fledged code repositories rather than simple scripts. Building such repositories from scratch rem…
Learning with noisy labels (LNL) methods have enabled the deployment of machine learning systems with imperfectly labeled data. However, these methods often struggle to identify noise in the presence of long-tailed (LT) class distributions, where the memorization effect becomes class-dependent. Conv…
Modern machine learning applications are characterized by the increasing size of deep models and the growing diversity of data modalities. This trend underscores the importance of efficiently adapting pre-trained multi-modal models to the test distribution in real time, i.e., multi-modal test-time…
Utilizing large language models (LLMs) to compose off-the-shelf visual tools represents a promising avenue of research for developing robust visual assistants capable of addressing diverse visual tasks. However these methods often overlook the potential for continual learning typically by freezing t…
Parameter-efficient transfer learning (PETL) methods show promise in adapting a pre-trained model to various downstream tasks while training only a few parameters. In the computer vision (CV) domain, numerous PETL algorithms have been proposed, but their direct employment or comparison remains incon…
"We explore how reconciling several foundation models (large language models and vision-language models) with a novel unified memory mechanism could tackle the challenging video understanding problem, especially capturing the long-term temporal relations in lengthy videos. In particular, the propose…
Noisy labels damage the performance of deep networks. For robust learning, a prominent two-stage pipeline alternates between eliminating possible incorrect labels and semi-supervised training. However, discarding part of noisy labels could result in a loss of information, especially when the corrup…
Co-training, extended from self-training, is one of the frameworks for semi-supervised learning. Without natural split of features, single-view co-training works at the cost of training extra classifiers, where the algorithm should be delicately designed to prevent individual classifiers from collap…
