While smart meters and deep learning models enable forecasting using past data from multiple buildings, data heterogeneity from diverse buildings can reduce model performance. The impact of increasing dataset heterogeneity in time series forecasting, while keeping size and model constant, is understudied. We tackle this issue using the ComStock dataset, which provides synthetic energy consumption data for U.S. commercial buildings. Two curated subsets, identical in size and region but differing in building type diversity, are used to assess the performance of various time series forecasting models, including fine-tuned open-source foundation models (FMs). The results show that dataset heterogeneity and model architecture have a greater impact on post-training forecasting performance than the parameter count. Moreover, despite the higher computational cost, fine-tuned FMs demonstrate competitive performance compared to base models trained from scratch. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.14421v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.14421v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 21 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">NeurIPS 2024 Workshop on Time Series in the Age of Large Models</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.14256">arXiv:2411.14256</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.14256">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.14256">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Robotics">cs.RO</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Generalizing End-To-End Autonomous Driving In Real-World Environments Using Zero-Shot LLMs </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Dong%2C+Z">Zeyu Dong</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhu%2C+Y">Yimin Zhu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yansong Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Mahon%2C+K">Kevin Mahon</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Sun%2C+Y">Yu Sun</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.14256v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Traditional autonomous driving methods adopt a modular design, decomposing tasks into sub-tasks.

In contrast, end-to-end autonomous driving directly outputs actions from raw sensor data, avoiding error accumulation. However, training an end-to-end model requires a comprehensive dataset; otherwise, the model exhibits poor generalization capabilities. Recently, large language models (LLMs) have been applied to enhance the generalization capabilities of end-to-end driving models. Most studies explore LLMs in an open-loop manner, where the output actions are compared to those of experts without direct feedback from the real world, while others examine closed-loop results only in simulations. This paper proposes an efficient architecture that integrates multimodal LLMs into end-to-end driving models operating in closed-loop settings in real-world environments. In our architecture, the LLM periodically processes raw sensor data to generate high-level driving instructions, effectively guiding the end-to-end model, even at a slower rate than the raw sensor data. This architecture relaxes the trade-off between the latency and inference quality of the LLM. It also allows us to choose from a wide variety of LLMs to improve high-level driving instructions and minimize fine-tuning costs. Consequently, our architecture reduces data collection requirements because the LLMs do not directly output actions; we only need to train a simple imitation learning model to output actions. In our experiments, the training data for the end-to-end model in a real-world environment consists of only simple obstacle configurations with one traffic cone, while the test environment is more complex and contains multiple obstacles placed in various positions. Experiments show that the proposed architecture enhances the generalization capabilities of the end-to-end model even without fine-tuning the LLM. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.14256v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.14256v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 21 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.13949">arXiv:2411.13949</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.13949">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.13949">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Separable Mixture of Low-Rank Adaptation for Continual Visual Instruction Tuning </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+Z">Ziqi Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Che%2C+C">Chang Che</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+Q">Qi Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yangyang Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Shi%2C+Z">Zenglin Shi</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+M">Meng Wang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.13949v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Visual instruction tuning (VIT) enables multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to effectively handle a wide range of vision tasks by framing them as language-based instructions.

Building on this, continual visual instruction tuning (CVIT) extends the capability of MLLMs to incrementally learn new tasks, accommodating evolving functionalities. While prior work has advanced CVIT through the development of new benchmarks and approaches to mitigate catastrophic forgetting, these efforts largely follow traditional continual learning paradigms, neglecting the unique challenges specific to CVIT. We identify a dual form of catastrophic forgetting in CVIT, where MLLMs not only forget previously learned visual understanding but also experience a decline in instruction following abilities as they acquire new tasks. To address this, we introduce the Separable Mixture of Low-Rank Adaptation (SMoLoRA) framework, which employs separable routing through two distinct modules - one for visual understanding and another for instruction following. This dual-routing design enables specialized adaptation in both domains, preventing forgetting while improving performance. Furthermore, we propose a novel CVIT benchmark that goes beyond existing benchmarks by additionally evaluating a model's ability to generalize to unseen tasks and handle diverse instructions across various tasks. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SMoLoRA outperforms existing methods in mitigating dual forgetting, improving generalization to unseen tasks, and ensuring robustness in following diverse instructions. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.13949v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.13949v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 21 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.13941">arXiv:2411.13941</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.13941">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.13941">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Software Engineering">cs.SE</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> LLMs as Continuous Learners: Improving the Reproduction of Defective Code in Software Issues </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Lin%2C+Y">Yalan Lin</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Ma%2C+Y">Yingwei Ma</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Cao%2C+R">Rongyu Cao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+B">Binhua Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Huang%2C+F">Fei Huang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Gu%2C+X">Xiaodong Gu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yongbin Li</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.13941v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Reproducing buggy code is the first and crucially important step in issue resolving, as it aids in identifying the underlying problems and validating that generated patches resolve the problem.

While numerous approaches have been proposed for this task, they primarily address common, widespread errors and struggle to adapt to unique, evolving errors specific to individual code repositories. To fill this gap, we propose EvoCoder, a multi-agent continuous learning framework for issue code reproduction. EvoCoder adopts a reflection mechanism that allows the LLM to continuously learn from previously resolved problems and dynamically refine its strategies to new emerging challenges. To prevent experience bloating, EvoCoder introduces a novel hierarchical experience pool that enables the model to adaptively update common and repo-specific experiences. Our experimental results show a 20\% improvement in issue reproduction rates over existing SOTA methods. Furthermore, integrating our reproduction mechanism significantly boosts the overall accuracy of the existing issue-resolving pipeline. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.13941v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.13941v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 21 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.13789">arXiv:2411.13789</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.13789">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.13789">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Information Retrieval">cs.IR</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> LEADRE: Multi-Faceted Knowledge Enhanced LLM Empowered Display Advertisement Recommender System </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+F">Fengxin Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yi Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+Y">Yue Liu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhou%2C+C">Chao Zhou</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+Y">Yuan Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Deng%2C+X">Xiaoxiang Deng</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xue%2C+W">Wei Xue</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+D">Dapeng Liu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xiao%2C+L">Lei Xiao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Gu%2C+H">Haijie Gu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Jiang%2C+J">Jie Jiang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+H">Hongyan Liu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Qin%2C+B">Biao Qin</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=He%2C+J">Jun He</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.13789v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Display advertising provides significant value to advertisers, publishers, and users.

Traditional display advertising systems utilize a multi-stage architecture consisting of retrieval, coarse ranking, and final ranking. However, conventional retrieval methods rely on ID-based learning to rank mechanisms and fail to adequately utilize the content information of ads, which hampers their ability to provide diverse recommendation lists. To address this limitation, we propose leveraging the extensive world knowledge of LLMs. However, three key challenges arise when attempting to maximize the effectiveness of LLMs: "How to capture user interests", "How to bridge the knowledge gap between LLMs and advertising system", and "How to efficiently deploy LLMs". To overcome these challenges, we introduce a novel LLM-based framework called LLM Empowered Display ADvertisement REcommender system (LEADRE). LEADRE consists of three core modules: (1) The Intent-Aware Prompt Engineering introduces multi-faceted knowledge and designs intent-aware <Prompt, Response> pairs that fine-tune LLMs to generate ads tailored to users' personal interests. (2) The Advertising-Specific Knowledge Alignment incorporates auxiliary fine-tuning tasks and Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) to align LLMs with ad semantic and business value. (3) The Efficient System Deployment deploys LEADRE in an online environment by integrating both latency-tolerant and latency-sensitive service. Extensive offline experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of LEADRE and validate the contributions of individual modules. Online A/B test shows that LEADRE leads to a 1.57% and 1.17% GMV lift for serviced users on WeChat Channels and Moments separately. LEADRE has been deployed on both platforms, serving tens of billions of requests each day. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.13789v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.13789v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 20 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.13677">arXiv:2411.13677</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.13677">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.13677">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Robotics">cs.RO</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Bimanual Dexterity for Complex Tasks </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Shaw%2C+K">Kenneth Shaw</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yulong Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yang%2C+J">Jiahui Yang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Srirama%2C+M+K">Mohan Kumar Srirama</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+R">Ray Liu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xiong%2C+H">Haoyu Xiong</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Mendonca%2C+R">Russell Mendonca</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Pathak%2C+D">Deepak Pathak</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.13677v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> To train generalist robot policies, machine learning methods often require a substantial amount of expert human teleoperation data.

To address this, we introduce Bidex, an extremely dexterous, low-cost, low-latency and portable bimanual dexterous teleoperation system which relies on motion capture gloves and teacher arms. We compare Bidex to a Vision Pro teleoperation system and a SteamVR system and find Bidex to produce better quality data for more complex tasks at a faster rate. Additionally, we show Bidex operating a mobile bimanual robot for in the wild tasks. The robot hands (5k USD) and teleoperation system (7k USD) is readily reproducible and can be used on many robot arms including two xArms (16k USD).

However, due to the small scale of infrared small target datasets and the limited number of pixels occupied by the targets themselves, it is a challenging task for deep learning methods to directly learn from these samples. Utilizing human expert knowledge to assist deep learning methods in better learning is worthy of exploration. To effectively guide the model to focus on targets' spatial features, this paper proposes the Local Contrast Attention Enhanced infrared small target detection Network (LCAE-Net), combining prior knowledge with data-driven deep learning methods. LCAE-Net is a U-shaped neural network model which consists of two developed modules: a Local Contrast Enhancement (LCE) module and a Channel Attention Enhancement (CAE) module. The LCE module takes advantages of prior knowledge, leveraging handcrafted convolution operator to acquire Local Contrast Attention (LCA), which could realize background suppression while enhance the potential target region, thus guiding the neural network to pay more attention to potential infrared small targets' location information. To effectively utilize the response information throughout downsampling progresses, the CAE module is proposed to achieve the information fusion among feature maps' different channels. Experimental results indicate that our LCAE-Net outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods on the three public datasets NUDT-SIRST, NUAA-SIRST, and IRSTD-1K, and its detection speed could reach up to 70 fps. Meanwhile, our model has a parameter count and Floating-Point Operations (FLOPs) of 1.945M and 4.862G respectively, which is suitable for deployment on edge devices. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.13260v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.13260v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 20 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">16 pages, 8 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.13159">arXiv:2411.13159</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.13159">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.13159">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computation and Language">cs.CL</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Sound">cs.SD</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Audio and Speech Processing">eess.AS</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Hard-Synth: Synthesizing Diverse Hard Samples for ASR using Zero-Shot TTS and LLM </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yu%2C+J">Jiawei Yu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yuang Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Qiao%2C+X">Xiaosong Qiao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhao%2C+H">Huan Zhao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhao%2C+X">Xiaofeng Zhao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Tang%2C+W">Wei Tang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhang%2C+M">Min Zhang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yang%2C+H">Hao Yang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Su%2C+J">Jinsong Su</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.13159v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Text-to-speech (TTS) models have been widely adopted to enhance automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems using text-only corpora, thereby reducing the cost of labeling real speech data.

Existing research primarily utilizes additional text data and predefined speech styles supported by TTS models. In this paper, we propose Hard-Synth, a novel ASR data augmentation method that leverages large language models (LLMs) and advanced zero-shot TTS. Our approach employs LLMs to generate diverse in-domain text through rewriting, without relying on additional text data. Rather than using predefined speech styles, we introduce a hard prompt selection method with zero-shot TTS to clone speech styles that the ASR model finds challenging to recognize. Experiments demonstrate that Hard-Synth significantly enhances the Conformer model, achieving relative word error rate (WER) reductions of 6.5\%/4.4\% on LibriSpeech dev/test-other subsets. Additionally, we show that Hard-Synth is data-efficient and capable of reducing bias in ASR. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.13159v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.13159v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 20 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.13144">arXiv:2411.13144</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.13144">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.13144">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Cryptography and Security">cs.CR</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> CopyrightMeter: Revisiting Copyright Protection in Text-to-image Models </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xu%2C+N">Naen Xu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+C">Changjiang Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Du%2C+T">Tianyu Du</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+M">Minxi Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Luo%2C+W">Wenjie Luo</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liang%2C+J">Jiacheng Liang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yuyuan Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhang%2C+X">Xuhong Zhang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Han%2C+M">Meng Han</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yin%2C+J">Jianwei Yin</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+T">Ting Wang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.13144v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Text-to-image diffusion models have emerged as powerful tools for generating high-quality images from textual descriptions.

However, their increasing popularity has raised significant copyright concerns, as these models can be misused to reproduce copyrighted content without authorization. In response, recent studies have proposed various copyright protection methods, including adversarial perturbation, concept erasure, and watermarking techniques. However, their effectiveness and robustness against advanced attacks remain largely unexplored. Moreover, the lack of unified evaluation frameworks has hindered systematic comparison and fair assessment of different approaches. To bridge this gap, we systematize existing copyright protection methods and attacks, providing a unified taxonomy of their design spaces. We then develop CopyrightMeter, a unified evaluation framework that incorporates 17 state-of-the-art protections and 16 representative attacks. Leveraging CopyrightMeter, we comprehensively evaluate protection methods across multiple dimensions, thereby uncovering how different design choices impact fidelity, efficacy, and resilience under attacks. Our analysis reveals several key findings: (i) most protections (16/17) are not resilient against attacks; (ii) the "best" protection varies depending on the target priority; (iii) more advanced attacks significantly promote the upgrading of protections. These insights provide concrete guidance for developing more robust protection methods, while its unified evaluation protocol establishes a standard benchmark for future copyright protection research in text-to-image generation. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.13144v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.13144v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 20 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.13120">arXiv:2411.13120</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.13120">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Medical Physics">physics.med-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Optics">physics.optics</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Virtual Staining of Label-Free Tissue in Imaging Mass Spectrometry </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhang%2C+Y">Yijie Zhang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Huang%2C+L">Luzhe Huang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Pillar%2C+N">Nir Pillar</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yuzhu Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Migas%2C+L+G">Lukasz G.

IMS offers a means of mapping the spatial distributions of molecular species in biological tissue with unparalleled chemical specificity and sensitivity. However, most IMS platforms are not able to achieve microscopy-level spatial resolution and lack cellular morphological contrast, necessitating subsequent histochemical staining, microscopic imaging and advanced image registration steps to enable molecular distributions to be linked to specific tissue features and cell types. Here, we present a virtual histological staining approach that enhances spatial resolution and digitally introduces cellular morphological contrast into mass spectrometry images of label-free human tissue using a diffusion model. Blind testing on human kidney tissue demonstrated that the virtually stained images of label-free samples closely match their histochemically stained counterparts (with Periodic Acid-Schiff staining), showing high concordance in identifying key renal pathology structures despite utilizing IMS data with 10-fold larger pixel size. Additionally, our approach employs an optimized noise sampling technique during the diffusion model's inference process to reduce variance in the generated images, yielding reliable and repeatable virtual staining. We believe this virtual staining method will significantly expand the applicability of IMS in life sciences and open new avenues for mass spectrometry-based biomedical research. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.13120v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.13120v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 20 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">33 Pages, 6 Figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.13037">arXiv:2411.13037</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.13037">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.13037">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Quantum Physics">quant-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Emerging Technologies">cs.ET</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Machine Learning for Arbitrary Single-Qubit Rotations on an Embedded Device </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Bhat%2C+M+N">Madhav Narayan Bhat</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Russo%2C+M">Marco Russo</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Carloni%2C+L+P">Luca P.

Unlike traditional RNNs, which may deliver high accuracy but often lack physical consistency and broad applicability, the \textit{Pril} method incorporates differential DO equations for each lake layer, modeling it as a first-order linear solution using a forward Euler scheme with a daily timestep. However, this method is sensitive to numerical instabilities. When drastic fluctuations occur, the numerical integration is neither mass-conservative nor stable. Especially during stratified conditions, exogenous fluxes into each layer cause significant within-day changes in DO concentrations. To address this challenge, we further propose an \textit{Adaptive Process-Guided Learning (April)} model, which dynamically adjusts timesteps from daily to sub-daily intervals with the aim of mitigating the discrepancies caused by variations in entrainment fluxes. \textit{April} uses a generator-discriminator architecture to identify days with significant DO fluctuations and employs a multi-step Euler scheme with sub-daily timesteps to effectively manage these variations. We have tested our methods on a wide range of lakes in the Midwestern USA, and demonstrated robust capability in predicting DO concentrations even with limited training data. While primarily focused on aquatic ecosystems, this approach is broadly applicable to diverse scientific and engineering disciplines that utilize process-based models, such as power engineering, climate science, and biomedicine. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.12973v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.12973v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 19 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.12972">arXiv:2411.12972</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.12972">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.12972">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> A Foundation Model for Unified Urban Spatio-Temporal Flow Prediction </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yuan%2C+Y">Yuan Yuan</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Ding%2C+J">Jingtao Ding</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Han%2C+C">Chonghua Han</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Jin%2C+D">Depeng Jin</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yong Li</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.12972v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Urban spatio-temporal flow prediction, encompassing traffic flows and crowd flows, is crucial for optimizing city infrastructure and managing traffic and emergency responses.

Traditional approaches have relied on separate models tailored to either grid-based data, representing cities as uniform cells, or graph-based data, modeling cities as networks of nodes and edges. In this paper, we build UniFlow, a foundational model for general urban flow prediction that unifies both grid-based and graphbased data. We first design a multi-view spatio-temporal patching mechanism to standardize different data into a consistent sequential format and then introduce a spatio-temporal transformer architecture to capture complex correlations and dynamics. To leverage shared spatio-temporal patterns across different data types and facilitate effective cross-learning, we propose SpatioTemporal Memory Retrieval Augmentation (ST-MRA). By creating structured memory modules to store shared spatio-temporal patterns, ST-MRA enhances predictions through adaptive memory retrieval. Extensive experiments demonstrate that UniFlow outperforms existing models in both grid-based and graph-based flow prediction, excelling particularly in scenarios with limited data availability, showcasing its superior performance and broad applicability.

Existing backdoor defense methods are primarily designed for vision or classification tasks, and are thus ineffective for text generation tasks, leaving LLMs vulnerable. We introduce Internal Consistency Regularization (CROW), a novel defense using consistency regularization finetuning to address layer-wise inconsistencies caused by backdoor triggers. CROW leverages the intuition that clean models exhibit smooth, consistent transitions in hidden representations across layers, whereas backdoored models show noticeable fluctuation when triggered. By enforcing internal consistency through adversarial perturbations and regularization, CROW neutralizes backdoor effects without requiring clean reference models or prior trigger knowledge, relying only on a small set of clean data. This makes it practical for deployment across various LLM architectures. Experimental results demonstrate that CROW consistently achieves a significant reductions in attack success rates across diverse backdoor strategies and tasks, including negative sentiment, targeted refusal, and code injection, on models such as Llama-2 (7B, 13B), CodeLlama (7B, 13B) and Mistral-7B, while preserving the model's generative capabilities. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.12768v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.12768v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 18 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.12701">arXiv:2411.12701</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.12701">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.12701">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Cryptography and Security">cs.CR</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> When Backdoors Speak: Understanding LLM Backdoor Attacks Through Model-Generated Explanations </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Ge%2C+H">Huaizhi Ge</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yiming Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+Q">Qifan Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhang%2C+Y">Yongfeng Zhang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Tang%2C+R">Ruixiang Tang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.12701v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Large Language Models (LLMs) are vulnerable to backdoor attacks, where hidden triggers can maliciously manipulate model behavior.

While several backdoor attack methods have been proposed, the mechanisms by which backdoor functions operate in LLMs remain underexplored. In this paper, we move beyond attacking LLMs and investigate backdoor functionality through the novel lens of natural language explanations. Specifically, we leverage LLMs' generative capabilities to produce human-understandable explanations for their decisions, allowing us to compare explanations for clean and poisoned samples. We explore various backdoor attacks and embed the backdoor into LLaMA models for multiple tasks. Our experiments show that backdoored models produce higher-quality explanations for clean data compared to poisoned data, while generating significantly more consistent explanations for poisoned data than for clean data. We further analyze the explanation generation process, revealing that at the token level, the explanation token of poisoned samples only appears in the final few transformer layers of the LLM. At the sentence level, attention dynamics indicate that poisoned inputs shift attention from the input context when generating the explanation. These findings deepen our understanding of backdoor attack mechanisms in LLMs and offer a framework for detecting such vulnerabilities through explainability techniques, contributing to the development of more secure LLMs. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.12701v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.12701v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 19 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.12354">arXiv:2411.12354</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.12354">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.12354">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Information Retrieval">cs.IR</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Scalable and Effective Negative Sample Generation for Hyperedge Prediction </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Qu%2C+S">Shilin Qu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+W">Weiqing Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yuan-Fang Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Nguyen%2C+Q+V+H">Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yin%2C+H">Hongzhi Yin</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.12354v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Hyperedge prediction is crucial in hypergraph analysis for understanding complex multi-entity interactions in various web-based applications, including social networks and e-commerce systems.

Traditional methods often face difficulties in generating high-quality negative samples due to the imbalance between positive and negative instances. To address this, we present the Scalable and Effective Negative Sample Generation for Hyperedge Prediction (SEHP) framework, which utilizes diffusion models to tackle these challenges. SEHP employs a boundary-aware loss function that iteratively refines negative samples, moving them closer to decision boundaries to improve classification performance. SEHP samples positive instances to form sub-hypergraphs for scalable batch processing. By using structural information from sub-hypergraphs as conditions within the diffusion process, SEHP effectively captures global patterns. To enhance efficiency, our approach operates directly in latent space, avoiding the need for discrete ID generation and resulting in significant speed improvements while preserving accuracy. Extensive experiments show that SEHP outperforms existing methods in accuracy, efficiency, and scalability, representing a substantial advancement in hyperedge prediction techniques.

Over the past few years, many studies have explored the long-range dependencies and similarities in MTS. However, long-range dependencies are difficult to model due to their temporal changes and high dimensionality makes it difficult to obtain similarities effectively and efficiently. Thus, to address these issues, we propose contrast similarity-aware dual-pathway Mamba for MTS node classification (CS-DPMamba). Firstly, to obtain the dynamic similarity of each sample, we initially use temporal contrast learning module to acquire MTS representations. And then we construct a similarity matrix between MTS representations using Fast Dynamic Time Warping (FastDTW). Secondly, we apply the DPMamba to consider the bidirectional nature of MTS, allowing us to better capture long-range and short-range dependencies within the data. Finally, we utilize the Kolmogorov-Arnold Network enhanced Graph Isomorphism Network to complete the information interaction in the matrix and MTS node classification task. By comprehensively considering the long-range dependencies and dynamic similarity features, we achieved precise MTS node classification. We conducted experiments on multiple University of East Anglia (UEA) MTS datasets, which encompass diverse application scenarios. Our results demonstrate the superiority of our method through both supervised and semi-supervised experiments on the MTS classification task. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.12222v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.12222v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 18 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Submitted to Knowledge-Based Systems on Nov 17, 2024</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.12198">arXiv:2411.12198</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.12198">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.12198">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> CCIS-Diff: A Generative Model with Stable Diffusion Prior for Controlled Colonoscopy Image Synthesis </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xie%2C+Y">Yifan Xie</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+J">Jingge Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Feng%2C+T">Tao Feng</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Ma%2C+F">Fei Ma</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yang Li</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.12198v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Colonoscopy is crucial for identifying adenomatous polyps and preventing colorectal cancer.

However, developing robust models for polyp detection is challenging by the limited size and accessibility of existing colonoscopy datasets. While previous efforts have attempted to synthesize colonoscopy images, current methods suffer from instability and insufficient data diversity. Moreover, these approaches lack precise control over the generation process, resulting in images that fail to meet clinical quality standards. To address these challenges, we propose CCIS-DIFF, a Controlled generative model for high-quality Colonoscopy Image Synthesis based on a Diffusion architecture. Our method offers precise control over both the spatial attributes (polyp location and shape) and clinical characteristics of polyps that align with clinical descriptions. Specifically, we introduce a blur mask weighting strategy to seamlessly blend synthesized polyps with the colonic mucosa, and a text-aware attention mechanism to guide the generated images to reflect clinical characteristics. Notably, to achieve this, we construct a new multi-modal colonoscopy dataset that integrates images, mask annotations, and corresponding clinical text descriptions. Experimental results demonstrate that our method generates high-quality, diverse colonoscopy images with fine control over both spatial constraints and clinical consistency, offering valuable support for downstream segmentation and diagnostic tasks. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.12198v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.12198v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 18 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">5 pages, 4 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.12164">arXiv:2411.12164</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.12164">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.12164">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> UrbanDiT: A Foundation Model for Open-World Urban Spatio-Temporal Learning </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yuan%2C+Y">Yuan Yuan</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Han%2C+C">Chonghua Han</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Ding%2C+J">Jingtao Ding</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Jin%2C+D">Depeng Jin</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yong Li</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.12164v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> The urban environment is characterized by complex spatio-temporal dynamics arising from diverse human activities and interactions.

Effectively modeling these dynamics is essential for understanding and optimizing urban systems In this work, we introduce UrbanDiT, a foundation model for open-world urban spatio-temporal learning that successfully scale up diffusion transformers in this field. UrbanDiT pioneers a unified model that integrates diverse spatio-temporal data sources and types while learning universal spatio-temporal patterns across different cities and scenarios. This allows the model to unify both multi-data and multi-task learning, and effectively support a wide range of spatio-temporal applications. Its key innovation lies in the elaborated prompt learning framework, which adaptively generates both data-driven and task-specific prompts, guiding the model to deliver superior performance across various urban applications. UrbanDiT offers three primary advantages: 1) It unifies diverse data types, such as grid-based and graph-based data, into a sequential format, allowing to capture spatio-temporal dynamics across diverse scenarios of different cities; 2) With masking strategies and task-specific prompts, it supports a wide range of tasks, including bi-directional spatio-temporal prediction, temporal interpolation, spatial extrapolation, and spatio-temporal imputation; and 3) It generalizes effectively to open-world scenarios, with its powerful zero-shot capabilities outperforming nearly all baselines with training data. These features allow UrbanDiT to achieves state-of-the-art performance in different domains such as transportation traffic, crowd flows, taxi demand, bike usage, and cellular traffic, across multiple cities and tasks. UrbanDiT sets up a new benchmark for foundation models in the urban spatio-temporal domain. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.12164v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.12164v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 18 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.11911">arXiv:2411.11911</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.11911">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.11911">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Robotics">cs.RO</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> ModeSeq: Taming Sparse Multimodal Motion Prediction with Sequential Mode Modeling </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhou%2C+Z">Zikang Zhou</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhou%2C+H">Hengjian Zhou</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Hu%2C+H">Haibo Hu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wen%2C+Z">Zihao Wen</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+J">Jianping Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yung-Hui Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Huang%2C+Y">Yu-Kai Huang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.11911v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Anticipating the multimodality of future events lays the foundation for safe autonomous driving.

However, multimodal motion prediction for traffic agents has been clouded by the lack of multimodal ground truth. Existing works predominantly adopt the winner-take-all training strategy to tackle this challenge, yet still suffer from limited trajectory diversity and misaligned mode confidence. While some approaches address these limitations by generating excessive trajectory candidates, they necessitate a post-processing stage to identify the most representative modes, a process lacking universal principles and compromising trajectory accuracy. We are thus motivated to introduce ModeSeq, a new multimodal prediction paradigm that models modes as sequences. Unlike the common practice of decoding multiple plausible trajectories in one shot, ModeSeq requires motion decoders to infer the next mode step by step, thereby more explicitly capturing the correlation between modes and significantly enhancing the ability to reason about multimodality. Leveraging the inductive bias of sequential mode prediction, we also propose the Early-Match-Take-All (EMTA) training strategy to diversify the trajectories further. Without relying on dense mode prediction or rule-based trajectory selection, ModeSeq considerably improves the diversity of multimodal output while attaining satisfactory trajectory accuracy, resulting in balanced performance on motion prediction benchmarks. Moreover, ModeSeq naturally emerges with the capability of mode extrapolation, which supports forecasting more behavior modes when the future is highly uncertain. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.11911v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.11911v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.11863">arXiv:2411.11863</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.11863">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/2411.11863">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.11863">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Signal Processing">eess.SP</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Longitudinal Wrist PPG Analysis for Reliable Hypertension Risk Screening Using Deep Learning </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Lin%2C+H">Hui Lin</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+J">Jiyang Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Hussein%2C+R">Ramy Hussein</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Sui%2C+X">Xin Sui</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+X">Xiaoyu Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhu%2C+G">Guangpu Zhu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Katsaggelos%2C+A+K">Aggelos K.

To address this challenge, we propose a skill library framework based on knowledge graphs, which endows robots with high-level skill awareness and spatial semantic understanding. The framework hierarchically organizes operational knowledge by constructing a "task graph" and a "scene graph" to represent task and scene semantic information, respectively. We introduce a "state graph" to facilitate interaction between high-level task planning and low-level scene information. Furthermore, we propose a hierarchical transfer framework for operational skills. At the task level, the framework integrates contextual learning and chain-of-thought prompting within a four-stage prompt paradigm, leveraging large language models' (LLMs) reasoning and generalization capabilities to achieve task-level subtask sequence transfer. At the motion level, an adaptive trajectory transfer method is developed using the A* algorithm and the skill library, enabling motion-level adaptive trajectory transfer. At the physical level, we introduce an adaptive contour extraction and posture perception method based on tactile perception. This method dynamically obtains high-precision contour and posture information from visual-tactile texture data and adjusts transferred skills, such as contact positions and postures, to ensure effectiveness in new environments. Experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Despite this great success, the safety guardrail of LVLMs may not cover the unforeseen domains introduced by the visual modality. Existing studies primarily focus on eliciting LVLMs to generate harmful responses via carefully crafted image-based jailbreaks designed to bypass alignment defenses. In this study, we reveal that a safe image can be exploited to achieve the same jailbreak consequence when combined with additional safe images and prompts. This stems from two fundamental properties of LVLMs: universal reasoning capabilities and safety snowball effect. Building on these insights, we propose Safety Snowball Agent (SSA), a novel agent-based framework leveraging agents' autonomous and tool-using abilities to jailbreak LVLMs. SSA operates through two principal stages: (1) initial response generation, where tools generate or retrieve jailbreak images based on potential harmful intents, and (2) harmful snowballing, where refined subsequent prompts induce progressively harmful outputs. Our experiments demonstrate that \ours can use nearly any image to induce LVLMs to produce unsafe content, achieving high success jailbreaking rates against the latest LVLMs. Unlike prior works that exploit alignment flaws, \ours leverages the inherent properties of LVLMs, presenting a profound challenge for enforcing safety in generative multimodal systems.

To address these concerns, AIGC watermarks offer an effective solution to mitigate malicious activities. However, existing watermarking surveys focus more on traditional watermarks, overlooking AIGC-specific challenges. In this work, we propose a systematic investigation into AIGC watermarking and provide the first formal definition of AIGC watermarking. Different from previous surveys, we provide a taxonomy based on the core properties of the watermark which are summarized through comprehensive literature from various AIGC modalities. Derived from the properties, we discuss the functionality and security threats of AIGC watermarking. In the end, we thoroughly investigate the AIGC governance of different countries and practitioners. We believe this taxonomy better aligns with the practical demands for watermarking in the era of GenAI, thus providing a clearer summary of existing work and uncovering potential future research directions for the community. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.11478v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.11478v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 19 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 18 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.11410">arXiv:2411.11410</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.11410">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.11410">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Software Engineering">cs.SE</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Detecting Multi-Parameter Constraint Inconsistencies in Python Data Science Libraries </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xu%2C+X">Xiufeng Xu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xie%2C+F">Fuman Xie</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhu%2C+C">Chenguang Zhu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Bai%2C+G">Guangdong Bai</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Khurshid%2C+S">Sarfraz Khurshid</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yi Li</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.11410v2-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Modern AI- and Data-intensive software systems rely heavily on data science and machine learning libraries that provide essential algorithmic implementations and computational frameworks.

These libraries expose complex APIs whose correct usage has to follow constraints among multiple interdependent parameters. Developers using these APIs are expected to learn about the constraints through the provided documentations and any discrepancy may lead to unexpected behaviors. However, maintaining correct and consistent multi-parameter constraints in API documentations remains a significant challenge for API compatibility and reliability. To address this challenge, we propose MPDetector, for detecting inconsistencies between code and documentation, specifically focusing on multi-parameter constraints. MPDetector identifies these constraints at the code level by exploring execution paths through symbolic execution and further extracts corresponding constraints from documentation using large language models (LLMs). We propose a customized fuzzy constraint logic to reconcile the unpredictability of LLM outputs and detects logical inconsistencies between the code and documentation constraints. We collected and constructed two datasets from four popular data science libraries and evaluated MPDetector on them. The results demonstrate that MPDetector can effectively detect inconsistency issues with the precision of 92.8%. We further reported 14 detected inconsistency issues to the library developers, who have confirmed 11 issues at the time of writing. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.11410v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.11410v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 19 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 18 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.11360">arXiv:2411.11360</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.11360">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.11360">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> CCExpert: Advancing MLLM Capability in Remote Sensing Change Captioning with Difference-Aware Integration and a Foundational Dataset </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+Z">Zhiming Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+M">Mingze Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xu%2C+S">Sheng Xu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yanjing Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhang%2C+B">Baochang Zhang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.11360v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Remote Sensing Image Change Captioning (RSICC) aims to generate natural language descriptions of surface changes between multi-temporal remote sensing images, detailing the categories, locations, and dynamics of changed objects (e.g., additions or disappearances).

Many current methods attempt to leverage the long-sequence understanding and reasoning capabilities of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) for this task. However, without comprehensive data support, these approaches often alter the essential feature transmission pathways of MLLMs, disrupting the intrinsic knowledge within the models and limiting their potential in RSICC. In this paper, we propose a novel model, CCExpert, based on a new, advanced multimodal large model framework. Firstly, we design a difference-aware integration module to capture multi-scale differences between bi-temporal images and incorporate them into the original image context, thereby enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio of differential features. Secondly, we constructed a high-quality, diversified dataset called CC-Foundation, containing 200,000 image pairs and 1.2 million captions, to provide substantial data support for continue pretraining in this domain. Lastly, we employed a three-stage progressive training process to ensure the deep integration of the difference-aware integration module with the pretrained MLLM. CCExpert achieved a notable performance of $S^*_m=81.80$ on the LEVIR-CC benchmark, significantly surpassing previous state-of-the-art methods. The code and part of the dataset will soon be open-sourced at https://github.com/Meize0729/CCExpert. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.11360v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.11360v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 18 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.11295">arXiv:2411.11295</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.11295">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.11295">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computation and Language">cs.CL</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Transcending Language Boundaries: Harnessing LLMs for Low-Resource Language Translation </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Shu%2C+P">Peng Shu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Chen%2C+J">Junhao Chen</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+Z">Zhengliang Liu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+H">Hui Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wu%2C+Z">Zihao Wu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhong%2C+T">Tianyang Zhong</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yiwei Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhao%2C+H">Huaqin Zhao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Jiang%2C+H">Hanqi Jiang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Pan%2C+Y">Yi Pan</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhou%2C+Y">Yifan Zhou</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Owl%2C+C">Constance Owl</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhai%2C+X">Xiaoming Zhai</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+N">Ninghao Liu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Saunt%2C+C">Claudio Saunt</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+T">Tianming Liu</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.11295v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable success across a wide range of tasks and domains.

However, their performance in low-resource language translation, particularly when translating into these languages, remains underexplored. This gap poses significant challenges, as linguistic barriers hinder the cultural preservation and development of minority communities. To address this issue, this paper introduces a novel retrieval-based method that enhances translation quality for low-resource languages by focusing on key terms, which involves translating keywords and retrieving corresponding examples from existing data. To evaluate the effectiveness of this method, we conducted experiments translating from English into three low-resource languages: Cherokee, a critically endangered indigenous language of North America; Tibetan, a historically and culturally significant language in Asia; and Manchu, a language with few remaining speakers. Our comparison with the zero-shot performance of GPT-4o and LLaMA 3.1 405B, highlights the significant challenges these models face when translating into low-resource languages. In contrast, our retrieval-based method shows promise in improving both word-level accuracy and overall semantic understanding by leveraging existing resources more effectively. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.11295v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.11295v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 18 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.11053">arXiv:2411.11053</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.11053">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.11053">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computation and Language">cs.CL</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> SRA-MCTS: Self-driven Reasoning Augmentation with Monte Carlo Tree Search for Code Generation </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xu%2C+B">Bin Xu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Lin%2C+Y">Yiguan Lin</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yinghao Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Gao%2C+Y">Yang Gao</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.11053v3-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Large language models demonstrate exceptional performance in simple code generation tasks but still face challenges in tackling complex problems.

These challenges may stem from insufficient reasoning and problem decomposition capabilities. To address this issue, we propose a reasoning-augmented data generation process, SRA-MCTS, which guides the model to autonomously generate high-quality intermediate reasoning paths. This creates a positive feedback loop, enabling continuous improvement. Our method operates entirely through the model itself without requiring additional supervision. By synthesizing natural language reasoning paths and translating them into executable code, the approach ensures analytical accuracy and enhances the success rate in solving complex tasks. Experimental results show that, even without additional supervisory signals, our method achieves performance improvements across different model scales, demonstrating the significant potential of self-improvement in small models. Furthermore, the method remains robust when traditional Chain-of-Thought (CoT) approaches exhibit performance degradation, with notable improvements observed in diversity metrics such as pass@10. We encourage further exploration of reasoning processes within training data to enhance the ability of language models to address complex problems. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.11053v3-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.11053v3-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 21 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 17 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.10948">arXiv:2411.10948</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.10948">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.10948">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Towards Accurate and Efficient Sub-8-Bit Integer Training </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Guo%2C+W">Wenjin Guo</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+D">Donglai Liu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xie%2C+W">Weiying Xie</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yunsong Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Ning%2C+X">Xuefei Ning</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Meng%2C+Z">Zihan Meng</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zeng%2C+S">Shulin Zeng</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Lei%2C+J">Jie Lei</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Fang%2C+Z">Zhenman Fang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+Y">Yu Wang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.10948v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Neural network training is a memory- and compute-intensive task.

Quantization, which enables low-bitwidth formats in training, can significantly mitigate the workload. To reduce quantization error, recent methods have developed new data formats and additional pre-processing operations on quantizers. However, it remains quite challenging to achieve high accuracy and efficiency simultaneously. In this paper, we explore sub-8-bit integer training from its essence of gradient descent optimization. Our integer training framework includes two components: ShiftQuant to realize accurate gradient estimation, and L1 normalization to smoothen the loss landscape. ShiftQuant attains performance that approaches the theoretical upper bound of group quantization. Furthermore, it liberates group quantization from inefficient memory rearrangement. The L1 normalization facilitates the implementation of fully quantized normalization layers with impressive convergence accuracy. Our method frees sub-8-bit integer training from pre-processing and supports general devices. This framework achieves negligible accuracy loss across various neural networks and tasks ($0.92\%$ on 4-bit ResNets, $0.61\%$ on 6-bit Transformers). The prototypical implementation of ShiftQuant achieves more than $1.85\times/15.3\%$ performance improvement on CPU/GPU compared to its FP16 counterparts, and $33.9\%$ resource consumption reduction on FPGA than the FP16 counterparts. The proposed fully-quantized L1 normalization layers achieve more than $35.54\%$ improvement in throughout on CPU compared to traditional L2 normalization layers.

We introduce a depth branch into U-Net for efficient and high quality multi-view, cross-domain generation and incorporate epipolar attention into the latent-to-pixel decoder for pixel-level multi-view consistency. By back-projecting the generated depth pixels into 3D space, we create a structured 3D representation that can be either rendered via Gaussian splatting or extracted to high-quality meshes, thereby leveraging additional novel view synthesis loss to further improve our performance. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method surpasses existing baselines in geometry and texture quality while achieving significantly faster generation time. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.10947v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.10947v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 16 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">3DV 2025, Project page: https://hao-yu-wu.github.io/gen3d/</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.10943">arXiv:2411.10943</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.10943">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.10943">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Multiagent Systems">cs.MA</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Generalist Virtual Agents: A Survey on Autonomous Agents Across Digital Platforms </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Gao%2C+M">Minghe Gao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Bu%2C+W">Wendong Bu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Miao%2C+B">Bingchen Miao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wu%2C+Y">Yang Wu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yunfei Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+J">Juncheng Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Tang%2C+S">Siliang Tang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wu%2C+Q">Qi Wu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhuang%2C+Y">Yueting Zhuang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+M">Meng Wang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.10943v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> In this paper, we introduce the Generalist Virtual Agent (GVA), an autonomous entity engineered to function across diverse digital platforms and environments, assisting users by executing a variety of tasks.

This survey delves into the evolution of GVAs, tracing their progress from early intelligent assistants to contemporary implementations that incorporate large-scale models. We explore both the philosophical underpinnings and practical foundations of GVAs, addressing their developmental challenges and the methodologies currently employed in their design and operation. By presenting a detailed taxonomy of GVA environments, tasks, and capabilities, this paper aims to bridge the theoretical and practical aspects of GVAs, concluding those that operate in environments closely mirroring the real world are more likely to demonstrate human-like intelligence. We discuss potential future directions for GVA research, highlighting the necessity for realistic evaluation metrics and the enhancement of long-sequence decision-making capabilities to advance the field toward more systematic or embodied applications.

Existing Real SR methods primarily focus on generating details from the LR RGB domain, often leading to a lack of richness or fidelity in fine details. In this paper, we pioneer the use of details hidden in RAW data to complement existing RGB-only methods, yielding superior outputs. We argue that key image processing steps in Image Signal Processing, such as denoising and demosaicing, inherently result in the loss of fine details in LR images, making LR RAW a valuable information source. To validate this, we present RealSR-RAW, a comprehensive dataset comprising over 10,000 pairs with LR and HR RGB images, along with corresponding LR RAW, captured across multiple smartphones under varying focal lengths and diverse scenes. Additionally, we propose a novel, general RAW adapter to efficiently integrate LR RAW data into existing CNNs, Transformers, and Diffusion-based Real SR models by suppressing the noise contained in LR RAW and aligning its distribution. Extensive experiments demonstrate that incorporating RAW data significantly enhances detail recovery and improves Real SR performance across ten evaluation metrics, including both fidelity and perception-oriented metrics. Our findings open a new direction for the Real SR task, with the dataset and code will be made available to support future research. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.10798v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.10798v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 20 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 16 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">We sincerely apologize, but due to some commercial confidentiality agreements related to the report, we have decided to withdraw the submission for now and will resubmit after making the necessary revisions</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.10775">arXiv:2411.10775</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.10775">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.10775">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Image and Video Processing">eess.IV</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Multimedia">cs.MM</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Beyond Feature Mapping GAP: Integrating Real HDRTV Priors for Superior SDRTV-to-HDRTV Conversion </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xu%2C+K">Kepeng Xu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xu%2C+L">Li Xu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=He%2C+G">Gang He</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhang%2C+Z">Zhiqiang Zhang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yu%2C+W">Wenxin Yu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+S">Shihao Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhou%2C+D">Dajiang Zhou</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yunsong Li</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.10775v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> The rise of HDR-WCG display devices has highlighted the need to convert SDRTV to HDRTV, as most video sources are still in SDR.

Existing methods primarily focus on designing neural networks to learn a single-style mapping from SDRTV to HDRTV. However, the limited information in SDRTV and the diversity of styles in real-world conversions render this process an ill-posed problem, thereby constraining the performance and generalization of these methods. Inspired by generative approaches, we propose a novel method for SDRTV to HDRTV conversion guided by real HDRTV priors. Despite the limited information in SDRTV, introducing real HDRTV as reference priors significantly constrains the solution space of the originally high-dimensional ill-posed problem. This shift transforms the task from solving an unreferenced prediction problem to making a referenced selection, thereby markedly enhancing the accuracy and reliability of the conversion process. Specifically, our approach comprises two stages: the first stage employs a Vector Quantized Generative Adversarial Network to capture HDRTV priors, while the second stage matches these priors to the input SDRTV content to recover realistic HDRTV outputs. We evaluate our method on public datasets, demonstrating its effectiveness with significant improvements in both objective and subjective metrics across real and synthetic datasets. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.10775v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.10775v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 16 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">8 pages,4 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.10773">arXiv:2411.10773</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.10773">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.10773">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Image and Video Processing">eess.IV</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> An End-to-End Real-World Camera Imaging Pipeline </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xu%2C+K">Kepeng Xu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Ma%2C+Z">Zijia Ma</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xu%2C+L">Li Xu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=He%2C+G">Gang He</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yunsong Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yu%2C+W">Wenxin Yu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Han%2C+T">Taichu Han</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yang%2C+C">Cheng Yang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.10773v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Recent advances in neural camera imaging pipelines have demonstrated notable progress.

Nevertheless, the real-world imaging pipeline still faces challenges including the lack of joint optimization in system components, computational redundancies, and optical distortions such as lens shading.In light of this, we propose an end-to-end camera imaging pipeline (RealCamNet) to enhance real-world camera imaging performance. Our methodology diverges from conventional, fragmented multi-stage image signal processing towards end-to-end architecture. This architecture facilitates joint optimization across the full pipeline and the restoration of coordinate-biased distortions. RealCamNet is designed for high-quality conversion from RAW to RGB and compact image compression. Specifically, we deeply analyze coordinate-dependent optical distortions, e.g., vignetting and dark shading, and design a novel Coordinate-Aware Distortion Restoration (CADR) module to restore coordinate-biased distortions. Furthermore, we propose a Coordinate-Independent Mapping Compression (CIMC) module to implement tone mapping and redundant information compression. Existing datasets suffer from misalignment and overly idealized conditions, making them inadequate for training real-world imaging pipelines. Therefore, we collected a real-world imaging dataset. Experiment results show that RealCamNet achieves the best rate-distortion performance with lower inference latency. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.10773v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.10773v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 16 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">accept by ACMMM 2024</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.10449">arXiv:2411.10449</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.10449">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.10449">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Human-Computer Interaction">cs.HC</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Love in Action: Gamifying Public Video Cameras for Fostering Social Relationships in Real World </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhang%2C+Z">Zhang Zhang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+D">Da Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wu%2C+G">Geng Wu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yaoning Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Sun%2C+X">Xiaobing Sun</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+L">Liang Wang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.10449v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> In this paper, we create "Love in Action" (LIA), a body language-based social game utilizing video cameras installed in public spaces to enhance social relationships in real-world.

For devices processing physical waves, implementing operations needs sufficient "space," as dictated by wave physics. How much space is needed to perform a certain function is a fundamental question in optics, with recent research addressing it for given mathematical operations, but not for more general computing tasks, e.g., classification. Inspired by computational complexity theory, we study the "spatial complexity" of optical computing systems in terms of scaling laws - specifically, how their physical dimensions must scale as the dimension of the mathematical operation increases - and propose a new paradigm for designing optical computing systems: space-efficient neuromorphic optics, based on structural sparsity constraints and neural pruning methods motivated by wave physics (notably, the concept of "overlapping nonlocality"). On two mainstream platforms, free-space optics and on-chip integrated photonics, our methods demonstrate substantial size reductions (to 1%-10% the size of conventional designs) with minimal compromise on performance. Our theoretical and computational results reveal a trend of diminishing returns on accuracy as structure dimensions increase, providing a new perspective for interpreting and approaching the ultimate limits of optical computing - a balanced trade-off between device size and accuracy. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.10435v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.10435v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 15 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.10258">arXiv:2411.10258</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.10258">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.10258">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Cryptography and Security">cs.CR</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Networking and Internet Architecture">cs.NI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> MDHP-Net: Detecting Injection Attacks on In-vehicle Network using Multi-Dimensional Hawkes Process and Temporal Model </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+Q">Qi Liu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+Y">Yanchen Liu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+R">Ruifeng Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Cao%2C+C">Chenhong Cao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yufeng Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+X">Xingyu Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+P">Peng Wang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Feng%2C+R">Runhan Feng</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.10258v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> The integration of intelligent and connected technologies in modern vehicles, while offering enhanced functionalities through Electronic Control Unit and interfaces like OBD-II and telematics, also exposes the vehicle's in-vehicle network (IVN) to potential cyberattacks.

In this paper, we consider a specific type of cyberattack known as the injection attack. As demonstrated by empirical data from real-world cybersecurity adversarial competitions(available at https://mimic2024.xctf.org.cn/race/qwmimic2024 ), these injection attacks have excitation effect over time, gradually manipulating network traffic and disrupting the vehicle's normal functioning, ultimately compromising both its stability and safety. To profile the abnormal behavior of attackers, we propose a novel injection attack detector to extract long-term features of attack behavior. Specifically, we first provide a theoretical analysis of modeling the time-excitation effects of the attack using Multi-Dimensional Hawkes Process (MDHP). A gradient descent solver specifically tailored for MDHP, MDHP-GDS, is developed to accurately estimate optimal MDHP parameters. We then propose an injection attack detector, MDHP-Net, which integrates optimal MDHP parameters with MDHP-LSTM blocks to enhance temporal feature extraction. By introducing MDHP parameters, MDHP-Net captures complex temporal features that standard Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) cannot, enriching temporal dependencies within our customized structure. Extensive evaluations demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed detection approach. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.10258v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.10258v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 15 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.10061">arXiv:2411.10061</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.10061">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.10061">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Graphics">cs.GR</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> EchoMimicV2: Towards Striking, Simplified, and Semi-Body Human Animation </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Meng%2C+R">Rang Meng</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhang%2C+X">Xingyu Zhang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yuming Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Ma%2C+C">Chenguang Ma</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.10061v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Recent work on human animation usually involves audio, pose, or movement maps conditions, thereby achieves vivid animation quality.

However, these methods often face practical challenges due to extra control conditions, cumbersome condition injection modules, or limitation to head region driving. Hence, we ask if it is possible to achieve striking half-body human animation while simplifying unnecessary conditions. To this end, we propose a half-body human animation method, dubbed EchoMimicV2, that leverages a novel Audio-Pose Dynamic Harmonization strategy, including Pose Sampling and Audio Diffusion, to enhance half-body details, facial and gestural expressiveness, and meanwhile reduce conditions redundancy. To compensate for the scarcity of half-body data, we utilize Head Partial Attention to seamlessly accommodate headshot data into our training framework, which can be omitted during inference, providing a free lunch for animation. Furthermore, we design the Phase-specific Denoising Loss to guide motion, detail, and low-level quality for animation in specific phases, respectively. Besides, we also present a novel benchmark for evaluating the effectiveness of half-body human animation. Extensive experiments and analyses demonstrate that EchoMimicV2 surpasses existing methods in both quantitative and qualitative evaluations. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.10061v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.10061v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 15 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.10029">arXiv:2411.10029</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.10029">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.10029">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Toward Robust and Accurate Adversarial Camouflage Generation against Vehicle Detectors </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhou%2C+J">Jiawei Zhou</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Lyu%2C+L">Linye Lyu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=He%2C+D">Daojing He</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yu Li</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.10029v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Adversarial camouflage is a widely used physical attack against vehicle detectors for its superiority in multi-view attack performance.

One promising approach involves using differentiable neural renderers to facilitate adversarial camouflage optimization through gradient back-propagation. However, existing methods often struggle to capture environmental characteristics during the rendering process or produce adversarial textures that can precisely map to the target vehicle. Moreover, these approaches neglect diverse weather conditions, reducing the efficacy of generated camouflage across varying weather scenarios. To tackle these challenges, we propose a robust and accurate camouflage generation method, namely RAUCA. The core of RAUCA is a novel neural rendering component, End-to-End Neural Renderer Plus (E2E-NRP), which can accurately optimize and project vehicle textures and render images with environmental characteristics such as lighting and weather. In addition, we integrate a multi-weather dataset for camouflage generation, leveraging the E2E-NRP to enhance the attack robustness. Experimental results on six popular object detectors show that RAUCA-final outperforms existing methods in both simulation and real-world settings. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.10029v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.10029v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 15 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">14 pages. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:2402.15853</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.09915">arXiv:2411.09915</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.09915">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Physics-informed Machine Learning for Battery Pack Thermal Management </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Liu%2C+Z">Zheng Liu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Jiang%2C+Y">Yuan Jiang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yumeng Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wang%2C+P">Pingfeng Wang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.09915v2-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> With the popularity of electric vehicles, the demand for lithium-ion batteries is increasing.

Temperature significantly influences the performance and safety of batteries. Battery thermal management systems can effectively control the temperature of batteries; therefore, the performance and safety can be ensured. However, the development process of battery thermal management systems is time-consuming and costly due to the extensive training dataset needed by data-driven models requiring enormous computational costs for finite element analysis. Therefore, a new approach to constructing surrogate models is needed in the era of AI. Physics-informed machine learning enforces the physical laws in surrogate models, making it the perfect candidate for estimating battery pack temperature distribution. In this study, we first developed a 21700 battery pack indirect liquid cooling system with cold plates on the top and bottom with thermal paste surrounding the battery cells. Then, the simplified finite element model was built based on experiment results. Due to the high coolant flow rate, the cold plates can be considered as constant temperature boundaries, while battery cells are the heat sources. The physics-informed convolutional neural network served as a surrogate model to estimate the temperature distribution of the battery pack. The loss function was constructed considering the heat conduction equation based on the finite difference method. The physics-informed loss function helped the convergence of the training process with less data. As a result, the physics-informed convolutional neural network showed more than 15 percents improvement in accuracy compared to the data-driven method with the same training data. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.09915v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.09915v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 14 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.09658">arXiv:2411.09658</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.09658">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.09658">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Robotics">cs.RO</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Motion Before Action: Diffusing Object Motion as Manipulation Condition </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Su%2C+Y">Yue Su</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhan%2C+X">Xinyu Zhan</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Fang%2C+H">Hongjie Fang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yong-Lu Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Lu%2C+C">Cewu Lu</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yang%2C+L">Lixin Yang</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.09658v2-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Inferring object motion representations from observations enhances the performance of robotic manipulation tasks.

This paper introduces a new paradigm for robot imitation learning that generates action sequences by reasoning about object motion from visual observations. We propose MBA (Motion Before Action), a novel module that employs two cascaded diffusion processes for object motion generation and robot action generation under object motion guidance. MBA first predicts the future pose sequence of the object based on observations, then uses this sequence as a condition to guide robot action generation. Designed as a plug-and-play component, MBA can be flexibly integrated into existing robotic manipulation policies with diffusion action heads. Extensive experiments in both simulated and real-world environments demonstrate that our approach substantially improves the performance of existing policies across a wide range of manipulation tasks.

While existing methods focus primarily on visual inputs, they struggle with capturing detailed contact interactions such as object deformation. Our approach leverages distributed tactile sensors to address this limitation by introducing DF-Field. This distributed force-aware contact representation models both kinetic and potential energy in hand-object interaction. ViTaM-D first reconstructs hand-object interactions using a visual-only network, VDT-Net, and then refines contact details through a force-aware optimization (FO) process, enhancing object deformation modeling. To benchmark our approach, we introduce the HOT dataset, which features 600 sequences of hand-object interactions, including deformable objects, built in a high-precision simulation environment. Extensive experiments on both the DexYCB and HOT datasets demonstrate significant improvements in accuracy over previous state-of-the-art methods such as gSDF and HOTrack.

Together, these factors make achieving high-quality, efficient whole-brain segmentation particularly demanding. In this paper, we propose a novel Vessel-Pattern-Based Semi-Supervised Distillation pipeline (VpbSD) to address the challenges of 3D microscopic cerebrovascular segmentation. This pipeline initially constructs a vessel-pattern codebook that captures diverse vascular structures from unlabeled data during the teacher model's pretraining phase. In the knowledge distillation stage, the codebook facilitates the transfer of rich knowledge from a heterogeneous teacher model to a student model, while the semi-supervised approach further enhances the student model's exposure to diverse learning samples. Experimental results on real-world data, including comparisons with state-of-the-art methods and ablation studies, demonstrate that our pipeline and its individual components effectively address the challenges inherent in microscopic cerebrovascular segmentation. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.09567v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.09567v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 14 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.09453">arXiv:2411.09453</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.09453">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.09453">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Long-Tailed Object Detection Pre-training: Dynamic Rebalancing Contrastive Learning with Dual Reconstruction </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Duan%2C+C">Chen-Long Duan</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yong Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Wei%2C+X">Xiu-Shen Wei</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhao%2C+L">Lin Zhao</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.09453v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Pre-training plays a vital role in various vision tasks, such as object recognition and detection.

Commonly used pre-training methods, which typically rely on randomized approaches like uniform or Gaussian distributions to initialize model parameters, often fall short when confronted with long-tailed distributions, especially in detection tasks. This is largely due to extreme data imbalance and the issue of simplicity bias. In this paper, we introduce a novel pre-training framework for object detection, called Dynamic Rebalancing Contrastive Learning with Dual Reconstruction (2DRCL). Our method builds on a Holistic-Local Contrastive Learning mechanism, which aligns pre-training with object detection by capturing both global contextual semantics and detailed local patterns. To tackle the imbalance inherent in long-tailed data, we design a dynamic rebalancing strategy that adjusts the sampling of underrepresented instances throughout the pre-training process, ensuring better representation of tail classes. Moreover, Dual Reconstruction addresses simplicity bias by enforcing a reconstruction task aligned with the self-consistency principle, specifically benefiting underrepresented tail classes. Experiments on COCO and LVIS v1.0 datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our method, particularly in improving the mAP/AP scores for tail classes. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.09453v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.09453v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 14 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Accepted by NeurIPS 2024</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.09410">arXiv:2411.09410</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.09410">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.09410">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Information Retrieval">cs.IR</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> LLM-assisted Explicit and Implicit Multi-interest Learning Framework for Sequential Recommendation </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Qiao%2C+S">Shutong Qiao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Gao%2C+C">Chen Gao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yong Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Yin%2C+H">Hongzhi Yin</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.09410v2-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Multi-interest modeling in current recommender systems (RS) is mainly based on user behavioral data, capturing user interest preferences from multiple dimensions.

However, since behavioral data is implicit and often highly sparse, it is challenging to understand users' complex and diverse interests. Recent studies have shown that the rich semantic information in the text can effectively supplement the deficiencies of behavioral data. Despite this, it is still difficult for small models to directly extract semantic features associated with users' deep interests. That is, how to effectively align semantics with behavioral information to form a more comprehensive and accurate understanding of user interests has become a critical research problem. To address this, we propose an LLM-assisted explicit and implicit multi-interest learning framework (named EIMF) to model user interests on two levels: behavior and semantics. The framework consists of two parts: Implicit Behavioral Interest Module (IBIM) and Explicit Semantic Interest Module (ESIM). The traditional multi-interest RS model in IBIM can learn users' implicit behavioral interests from interactions with items. In ESIM, we first adopt a clustering algorithm to select typical samples and design a prompting strategy on LLM to obtain explicit semantic interests. Furthermore, in the training phase, the semantic interests of typical samples can enhance the representation learning of behavioral interests based on the multi-task learning on semantic prediction and modality alignment. Therefore, in the inference stage, accurate recommendations can be achieved with only the user's behavioral data. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed EIMF framework, which effectively and efficiently combines small models with LLM to improve the accuracy of multi-interest modeling. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.09410v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.09410v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 14 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 14 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">10 pages</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.09268">arXiv:2411.09268</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.09268">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.09268">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> LES-Talker: Fine-Grained Emotion Editing for Talking Head Generation in Linear Emotion Space </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Feng%2C+G">Guanwen Feng</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Qian%2C+Z">Zhihao Qian</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yunan Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Jin%2C+S">Siyu Jin</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Miao%2C+Q">Qiguang Miao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Pun%2C+C">Chi-Man Pun</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.09268v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> While existing one-shot talking head generation models have achieved progress in coarse-grained emotion editing, there is still a lack of fine-grained emotion editing models with high interpretability.

We present LES-Talker, a novel one-shot talking head generation model with high interpretability, to achieve fine-grained emotion editing across emotion types, emotion levels, and facial units. We propose a Linear Emotion Space (LES) definition based on Facial Action Units to characterize emotion transformations as vector transformations. We design the Cross-Dimension Attention Net (CDAN) to deeply mine the correlation between LES representation and 3D model representation. Through mining multiple relationships across different feature and structure dimensions, we enable LES representation to guide the controllable deformation of 3D model. In order to adapt the multimodal data with deviations to the LES and enhance visual quality, we utilize specialized network design and training strategies. Experiments show that our method provides high visual quality along with multilevel and interpretable fine-grained emotion editing, outperforming mainstream methods. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.09268v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.09268v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 14 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.09156">arXiv:2411.09156</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.09156">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.09156">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition">cs.CV</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Graphics">cs.GR</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> DyGASR: Dynamic Generalized Exponential Splatting with Surface Alignment for Accelerated 3D Mesh Reconstruction </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhao%2C+S">Shengchao Zhao</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yundong Li</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.09156v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> Recent advancements in 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS), which lead to high-quality novel view synthesis and accelerated rendering, have remarkably improved the quality of radiance field reconstruction.

However, the extraction of mesh from a massive number of minute 3D Gaussian points remains great challenge due to the large volume of Gaussians and difficulty of representation of sharp signals caused by their inherent low-pass characteristics. To address this issue, we propose DyGASR, which utilizes generalized exponential function instead of traditional 3D Gaussian to decrease the number of particles and dynamically optimize the representation of the captured signal. In addition, it is observed that reconstructing mesh with Generalized Exponential Splatting(GES) without modifications frequently leads to failures since the generalized exponential distribution centroids may not precisely align with the scene surface. To overcome this, we adopt Sugar's approach and introduce Generalized Surface Regularization (GSR), which reduces the smallest scaling vector of each point cloud to zero and ensures normal alignment perpendicular to the surface, facilitating subsequent Poisson surface mesh reconstruction. Additionally, we propose a dynamic resolution adjustment strategy that utilizes a cosine schedule to gradually increase image resolution from low to high during the training stage, thus avoiding constant full resolution, which significantly boosts the reconstruction speed. Our approach surpasses existing 3DGS-based mesh reconstruction methods, as evidenced by extensive evaluations on various scene datasets, demonstrating a 25\% increase in speed, and a 30\% reduction in memory usage. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2411.09156v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2411.09156v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 13 November, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.09148">arXiv:2411.09148</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.09148">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2411.09148">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Networking and Internet Architecture">cs.NI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Toward Democratized Generative AI in Next-Generation Mobile Edge Networks </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Zhang%2C+R">Ruichen Zhang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=He%2C+J">Jiayi He</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Luo%2C+X">Xiaofeng Luo</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Niyato%2C+D">Dusit Niyato</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Kang%2C+J">Jiawen Kang</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Xiong%2C+Z">Zehui Xiong</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+Y">Yonghui Li</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Sikdar%2C+B">Biplab Sikdar</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2411.09148v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> The rapid development of generative AI technologies, including large language models (LLMs), has brought transformative changes to various fields.

However, deploying such advanced models on mobile and edge devices remains challenging due to their high computational, memory, communication, and energy requirements. To address these challenges, we propose a model-centric framework for democratizing generative AI deployment on mobile and edge networks. First, we comprehensively review key compact model strategies, such as quantization, model pruning, and knowledge distillation, and present key performance metrics to optimize generative AI for mobile deployment. Next, we provide a focused review of mobile and edge networks, emphasizing the specific challenges and requirements of these environments. We further conduct a case study demonstrating the effectiveness of these strategies by deploying LLMs on real mobile edge devices. Experimental results highlight the practicality of democratized LLMs, with significant improvements in generalization accuracy, hallucination rate, accessibility, and resource consumption.

However, the potential of the state-of-the-art generative self-supervised paradigm, masked image modeling, has been scarcely studied. This paradigm learns the knowledge through establishing connections between the masked and visible parts of masked image, during the pixel reconstruction process. By inheriting and extending this insight, we successfully leverage masked image modeling to boost semi-supervised semantic segmentation. Specifically, we introduce a novel class-wise masked image modeling that independently reconstructs different image regions according to their respective classes. In this way, the mask-induced connections are established within each class, mitigating the semantic confusion that arises from plainly reconstructing images in basic masked image modeling. To strengthen these intra-class connections, we further develop a feature aggregation strategy that minimizes the distances between features corresponding to the masked and visible parts within the same class. Additionally, in semantic space, we explore the application of masked image modeling to enhance regularization.

We introduce M-Schema, a semi-structured schema representation method designed to enhance the understanding of database structures. To enhance the quality and diversity of generated candidate SQL queries, XiYan-SQL integrates the significant potential of in-context learning (ICL) with the precise control of supervised fine-tuning. On one hand, we propose a series of training strategies to fine-tune models to generate high-quality candidates with diverse preferences. On the other hand, we implement the ICL approach with an example selection method based on named entity recognition to prevent overemphasis on entities. The refiner optimizes each candidate by correcting logical or syntactical errors. To address the challenge of identifying the best candidate, we fine-tune a selection model to distinguish nuances of candidate SQL queries. The experimental results on multiple dialect datasets demonstrate the robustness of XiYan-SQL in addressing challenges across different scenarios. Overall, our proposed XiYan-SQL achieves the state-of-the-art execution accuracy of 89.65% on the Spider test set, 69.86% on SQL-Eval, 41.20% on NL2GQL, and a competitive score of 72.23% on the Bird development benchmark. The proposed framework not only enhances the quality and diversity of SQL queries but also outperforms previous methods. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;"
