Text-to-image (T2I) synthesis has recently achieved significant advancements. However, challenges remain in the model's compositionality, which is the ability to create new combinations from known components. We introduce Winoground-T2I, a benchmark designed to evaluate the compositionality of T2I models. This benchmark includes 11K complex, high-quality contrastive sentence pairs spanning 20 categories. These contrastive sentence pairs with subtle differences enable fine-grained evaluations of T2I synthesis models. Additionally, to address the inconsistency across different metrics, we propose a strategy that evaluates the reliability of various metrics by using comparative sentence pairs. We use Winoground-T2I with a dual objective: to evaluate the performance of T2I models and the metrics used for their evaluation. Finally, we provide insights into the strengths and weaknesses of these metrics and the capabilities of current T2I models in tackling challenges across a range of complex compositional categories. Our benchmark is publicly available at //github.com/zhuxiangru/Winoground-T2I .

We propose a unified framework aimed at enhancing the diffusion priors for 3D generation tasks. Despite the critical importance of these tasks, existing methodologies often struggle to generate high-caliber results. We begin by examining the inherent limitations in previous diffusion priors. We identify a divergence between the diffusion priors and the training procedures of diffusion models that substantially impairs the quality of 3D generation. To address this issue, we propose a novel, unified framework that iteratively optimizes both the 3D model and the diffusion prior. Leveraging the different learnable parameters of the diffusion prior, our approach offers multiple configurations, affording various trade-offs between performance and implementation complexity. Notably, our experimental results demonstrate that our method markedly surpasses existing techniques, establishing new state-of-the-art in the realm of text-to-3D generation. Furthermore, our approach exhibits impressive performance on both NeRF and the newly introduced 3D Gaussian Splatting backbones. Additionally, our framework yields insightful contributions to the understanding of recent score distillation methods, such as the VSD and DDS loss.

Synthesizing multi-view 3D from one single image is a significant and challenging task. For this goal, Zero-1-to-3 methods aim to extend a 2D latent diffusion model to the 3D scope. These approaches generate the target-view image with a single-view source image and the camera pose as condition information. However, the one-to-one manner adopted in Zero-1-to-3 incurs challenges for building geometric and visual consistency across views, especially for complex objects. We propose a cascade generation framework constructed with two Zero-1-to-3 models, named Cascade-Zero123, to tackle this issue, which progressively extracts 3D information from the source image. Specifically, a self-prompting mechanism is designed to generate several nearby views at first. These views are then fed into the second-stage model along with the source image as generation conditions. With self-prompted multiple views as the supplementary information, our Cascade-Zero123 generates more highly consistent novel-view images than Zero-1-to-3. The promotion is significant for various complex and challenging scenes, involving insects, humans, transparent objects, and stacked multiple objects etc. The project page is at //cascadezero123.github.io/.

The advent of transformers, higher computational budgets, and big data has engendered remarkable progress in Natural Language Processing (NLP). Impressive performance of industry pre-trained models has garnered public attention in recent years and made news headlines. That these are industry models is noteworthy. Rarely, if ever, are academic institutes producing exciting new NLP models. Using these models is critical for competing on NLP benchmarks and correspondingly to stay relevant in NLP research. We surveyed 100 papers published at EMNLP 2022 to determine whether this phenomenon constitutes a reliance on industry for NLP publications. We find that there is indeed a substantial reliance. Citations of industry artifacts and contributions across categories is at least three times greater than industry publication rates per year. Quantifying this reliance does not settle how we ought to interpret the results. We discuss two possible perspectives in our discussion: 1) Is collaboration with industry still collaboration in the absence of an alternative? Or 2) has free NLP inquiry been captured by the motivations and research direction of private corporations?

We present parallel proof-of-work with DAG-style voting, a novel proof-of-work cryptocurrency protocol that, compared to Bitcoin, provides better consistency guarantees, higher transaction throughput, lower transaction confirmation latency, and higher resilience against incentive attacks. The superior consistency guarantees follow from implementing parallel proof-of-work, a recent consensus scheme that enforces a configurable number of proof-of-work votes per block. Our work is inspired by another recent protocol, Tailstorm, which structures the individual votes as tree and mitigates incentive attacks by discounting the mining rewards proportionally to the depth of the tree. We propose to structure the votes as a directed acyclic graph (DAG) instead of a tree. This allows for a more targeted punishment of offending miners and, as we show through a reinforcement learning based attack search, makes the protocol even more resilient to incentive attacks. An interesting by-product of our analysis is that parallel proof-of-work without reward discounting is less resilient to incentive attacks than Bitcoin in some realistic network scenarios.

Existing knowledge graph (KG) embedding models have primarily focused on static KGs. However, real-world KGs do not remain static, but rather evolve and grow in tandem with the development of KG applications. Consequently, new facts and previously unseen entities and relations continually emerge, necessitating an embedding model that can quickly learn and transfer new knowledge through growth. Motivated by this, we delve into an expanding field of KG embedding in this paper, i.e., lifelong KG embedding. We consider knowledge transfer and retention of the learning on growing snapshots of a KG without having to learn embeddings from scratch. The proposed model includes a masked KG autoencoder for embedding learning and update, with an embedding transfer strategy to inject the learned knowledge into the new entity and relation embeddings, and an embedding regularization method to avoid catastrophic forgetting. To investigate the impacts of different aspects of KG growth, we construct four datasets to evaluate the performance of lifelong KG embedding. Experimental results show that the proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art inductive and lifelong embedding baselines.

Knowledge Graph Embedding (KGE) aims to learn representations for entities and relations. Most KGE models have gained great success, especially on extrapolation scenarios. Specifically, given an unseen triple (h, r, t), a trained model can still correctly predict t from (h, r, ?), or h from (?, r, t), such extrapolation ability is impressive. However, most existing KGE works focus on the design of delicate triple modeling function, which mainly tells us how to measure the plausibility of observed triples, but offers limited explanation of why the methods can extrapolate to unseen data, and what are the important factors to help KGE extrapolate. Therefore in this work, we attempt to study the KGE extrapolation of two problems: 1. How does KGE extrapolate to unseen data? 2. How to design the KGE model with better extrapolation ability? For the problem 1, we first discuss the impact factors for extrapolation and from relation, entity and triple level respectively, propose three Semantic Evidences (SEs), which can be observed from train set and provide important semantic information for extrapolation. Then we verify the effectiveness of SEs through extensive experiments on several typical KGE methods. For the problem 2, to make better use of the three levels of SE, we propose a novel GNN-based KGE model, called Semantic Evidence aware Graph Neural Network (SE-GNN). In SE-GNN, each level of SE is modeled explicitly by the corresponding neighbor pattern, and merged sufficiently by the multi-layer aggregation, which contributes to obtaining more extrapolative knowledge representation. Finally, through extensive experiments on FB15k-237 and WN18RR datasets, we show that SE-GNN achieves state-of-the-art performance on Knowledge Graph Completion task and performs a better extrapolation ability.

Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs) have achieved great success in various Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks under the pre-training and fine-tuning paradigm. With large quantities of parameters, PLMs are computation-intensive and resource-hungry. Hence, model pruning has been introduced to compress large-scale PLMs. However, most prior approaches only consider task-specific knowledge towards downstream tasks, but ignore the essential task-agnostic knowledge during pruning, which may cause catastrophic forgetting problem and lead to poor generalization ability. To maintain both task-agnostic and task-specific knowledge in our pruned model, we propose ContrAstive Pruning (CAP) under the paradigm of pre-training and fine-tuning. It is designed as a general framework, compatible with both structured and unstructured pruning. Unified in contrastive learning, CAP enables the pruned model to learn from the pre-trained model for task-agnostic knowledge, and fine-tuned model for task-specific knowledge. Besides, to better retain the performance of the pruned model, the snapshots (i.e., the intermediate models at each pruning iteration) also serve as effective supervisions for pruning. Our extensive experiments show that adopting CAP consistently yields significant improvements, especially in extremely high sparsity scenarios. With only 3% model parameters reserved (i.e., 97% sparsity), CAP successfully achieves 99.2% and 96.3% of the original BERT performance in QQP and MNLI tasks. In addition, our probing experiments demonstrate that the model pruned by CAP tends to achieve better generalization ability.

This work addresses a novel and challenging problem of estimating the full 3D hand shape and pose from a single RGB image. Most current methods in 3D hand analysis from monocular RGB images only focus on estimating the 3D locations of hand keypoints, which cannot fully express the 3D shape of hand. In contrast, we propose a Graph Convolutional Neural Network (Graph CNN) based method to reconstruct a full 3D mesh of hand surface that contains richer information of both 3D hand shape and pose. To train networks with full supervision, we create a large-scale synthetic dataset containing both ground truth 3D meshes and 3D poses. When fine-tuning the networks on real-world datasets without 3D ground truth, we propose a weakly-supervised approach by leveraging the depth map as a weak supervision in training. Through extensive evaluations on our proposed new datasets and two public datasets, we show that our proposed method can produce accurate and reasonable 3D hand mesh, and can achieve superior 3D hand pose estimation accuracy when compared with state-of-the-art methods.

Visual Question Answering (VQA) models have struggled with counting objects in natural images so far. We identify a fundamental problem due to soft attention in these models as a cause. To circumvent this problem, we propose a neural network component that allows robust counting from object proposals. Experiments on a toy task show the effectiveness of this component and we obtain state-of-the-art accuracy on the number category of the VQA v2 dataset without negatively affecting other categories, even outperforming ensemble models with our single model. On a difficult balanced pair metric, the component gives a substantial improvement in counting over a strong baseline by 6.6%.
