The Hyperspherical Geometry of CLIP Latent Space: A Semantic Mixture Model

Zijie Yu, Gaowen Liu, Ramana Rao Kompella, Philip S. Yu, Yue Song

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 Diffusion Models: A Unified Framework from Tokenization to Generation

Ye Yuan, Weien Li, Rui Song, Zeyu Li, Haochen Liu, Xiangyu Kong, et al.

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 in Misinformation Ecosystems: Misuse, Defense, and Vulnerability

Lingwei Wei, Dou Hu, Wei Zhou, Songlin Hu, Philip S. Yu

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…

BlockServe: Block-Grained Continuous Batching for High-Throughput Diffusion LLM Serving

Yuanjie Zhu, Liangwei Yang, Ke Xu, Weizhi Zhang, Shanghao Li, Zihe Song, et al.

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…

Towards Personalized Differentially Private Learning for Decentralized Local Graphs

Longzhu He, Peng Tang, Chaozhuo Li, Jinhu Fu, Litian Zhang, Li Sun, et al.

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…

Breaking Structural Isolation: Scalable Graph Clustering via Community-Aware Sampling and Structural Entropy

Jingyun Zhang, Hao Peng, Jianxin Li, Angsheng Li, Philip S. Yu

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…

HAS-Bench: Evaluating LLM-Based Human-Agent Systems under Configurable Human Participation

Yaozu Wu, Wei-Chieh Huang, Jizhou Guo, Dongyuan Li, Renhe Jiang, Henry Peng Zou, et al.

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…
