Training large foundation models from scratch for domain-specific applications is almost impossible due to data limits and long-tailed distributions -- taking remote sensing (RS) as an example. Fine-tuning natural image pre-trained models on RS image... read more
In real underwater environments, downstream image recognition tasks such as semantic segmentation and object detection often face challenges posed by problems like blurring and color inconsistencies. Underwater image enhancement (UIE) has emerged as ... read more
Early DNA foundation models adopted BERT-style training, achieving good performance on DNA understanding tasks but lacking generative capabilities. Recent autoregressive models enable DNA generation, but employ left-to-right causal modeling that is s... read more
We study the ongoing debate regarding the statistical fidelity of AI-generated data compared to human-generated data in the context of non-verbal communication using full body motion. Concretely, we ask if contemporary generative models move beyond s... read more
Recently, continuous tensor functions have attracted increasing attention, because they can unifiedly represent data both on mesh grids and beyond mesh grids. However, since mode-$n$ product is essentially discrete and linear, the potential of curren... read more
Affine transformations have been recently used for stereo vision. They can be exploited in various computer vision application, e.g., when estimating surface normals, homographies, fundamental and essential matrices. Even full 3D reconstruction can b... read more
Diffusion models have gained prominence as powerful generative tools for solving inverse problems due to their ability to model complex data distributions. However, existing methods typically rely on complete knowledge of the forward observation proc... read more
We present FireRed-OCR, a systematic framework to specialize general VLMs into high-performance OCR models. Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have demonstrated impressive general capabilities but frequently suffer from ``structural hallucination'' ... read more
With the rapid development of generative AI in medical imaging, synthetic Computed Tomography (CT) images have demonstrated great potential in applications such as data augmentation and clinical diagnosis, but they also introduce serious security ris... read more
Generalization, the ability to perform well beyond the training context, is a hallmark of biological and artificial intelligence, yet anticipating unseen failures remains a central challenge. Conventional approaches often take a ``bottom-up'' mechani... read more
