Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) representations form a semantic embedding space governed by cosine similarity, reflecting an intrinsic hyperspherical geometry. However, existing probabilistic interpretations typically rely on Gaussian assumptions, which fail to capt…
Discrete denoising diffusion models (DDMs) have recently emerged as a compelling alternative to autoregressive (AR) modeling for discrete data, offering parallel generation and iterative global refinement capabilities. Unlike continuous diffusion, where the state space is fixed,…
Large language models (LLMs) have transformed misinformation from a primarily content-centric problem into a broader ecosystem-level security challenge. When misused, LLMs create risks beyond false content generation, enabling attacks on the social contexts, evidence sources, ret…
Efficient serving of diffusion large language models (dLLMs) is hindered by convergence heterogeneity: when batching multiple requests, different sequences converge at different rates, causing faster requests to stall behind slower stragglers and introducing compute bubbles and t…
Graph-structured data is increasingly generated and stored in decentralized environments, such as social platforms, mobile applications, and edge networks, where users maintain control over their local graph data. However, collecting and analyzing such decentralized graph data fo…
Unsupervised graph clustering is a fundamental technique for uncovering underlying semantic patterns in large-scale networks. Although Graph Contrastive Learning has demonstrated promising performance, existing methods often suffer from the "structural isolation" issue during min…
Large language models increasingly operate in settings where humans are active collaborators rather than passive task providers. We introduce HAS-Framework, a graph-based framework that represents humans and LLM-powered agents as first-class participants with explicit roles, perm…
Video reasoning requires Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) to remain grounded in dense evidence, yet existing systems largely adopt "read-once, generate-many" paradigm, in which visual grounding weakens during generation. This phenomenon has been widely observed and is known as Visu…
