In natural language processing, the quest for precision in language models has led to innovative approaches that mitigate the inherent inaccuracies these models may present. A significant challenge is the models’ tendency to produce “hallucinations” or factual errors due to their reliance on internal knowledge bases. This issue has been particularly pronounced in large language…

Enhancing the receptive field of models is crucial for effective 3D medical image segmentation. Traditional convolutional neural networks (CNNs) often struggle to capture global information from high-resolution 3D medical images. One proposed solution is the utilization of depth-wise convolution with larger kernel sizes to capture a wider range of features. However, CNN-based approaches need help…

Large-scale pre-trained vision-language models, exemplified by CLIP (Radford et al., 2021), exhibit remarkable generalizability across diverse visual domains and real-world tasks. However, their zero-shot in-distribution (ID) performance faces limitations on certain downstream datasets. Additionally, when evaluated in a closed-set manner, these models often struggle with out-of-distribution (OOD) samples from novel classes, posing safety risks in…

Numerous challenges underlying human-robot interaction exist. One such challenge is enabling robots to display human-like expressive behaviors. Traditional rule-based methods need more scalability in new social contexts, while the need for extensive, specific datasets limits data-driven approaches. This limitation becomes pronounced as the variety of social interactions a robot might encounter increases, creating a demand…
