Instruction tuning in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) aims to smoothly integrate a backbone LLM with a pre-trained feature encoder for downstream tasks. The major challenge is how to efficiently find the synergy through cooperative learning where LLMs adapt their reasoning abilities in downstream tasks while feature encoders adjust their encoding to provide more relevant modal information. In this paper, we analyze the MLLM instruction tuning from both theoretical and empirical perspectives, where we find unbalanced learning between the two components, i.e., the feature encoder and the LLM, can cause diminishing learning gradients that slow the model convergence and often lead to sub-optimal results due to insufficient learning. Inspired by our findings, we propose a measurement to quantitatively evaluate the learning balance, based on which we further design a dynamic learning scheduler that better coordinates the learning. In addition, we introduce an auxiliary loss regularization method to promote updating of the generation distribution of MLLMs considering the learning state of each model component, which potentially prevents each component from gradient diminishing and enables a more accurate estimation of the learning balance coefficient. We conduct experiments with multiple LLM backbones and feature encoders, where our techniques are model-agnostic and can be generically integrated with various MLLM backbones. Experiment results on multiple downstream tasks and modalities in vision and audio, demonstrate the proposed method's better efficiency and effectiveness in MLLM instruction tuning.

Virtual Reality (VR) headsets have become increasingly popular for remote collaboration, but video conferencing poses challenges when the user's face is covered by the headset. Existing solutions have limitations in terms of accessibility. In this paper, we propose HeadsetOff, a novel system that achieves photorealistic video conferencing on economical VR headsets by leveraging voice-driven face reconstruction. HeadsetOff consists of three main components: a multimodal attention-based predictor, a generator, and an adaptive controller. The predictor effectively predicts user future behavior based on different modalities. The generator employs voice input, head motion, and eye blink to animate the human face. The adaptive controller dynamically selects the appropriate generator model based on the trade-off between video quality and delay, aiming to maximize Quality of Experience while minimizing latency. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of HeadsetOff in achieving high-quality, low-latency video conferencing on economical VR headsets.

Large Language Models (LLMs) can play a vital role in psychotherapy by adeptly handling the crucial task of cognitive reframing and overcoming challenges such as shame, distrust, therapist skill variability, and resource scarcity. Previous LLMs in cognitive reframing mainly converted negative emotions to positive ones, but these approaches have limited efficacy, often not promoting clients' self-discovery of alternative perspectives. In this paper, we unveil the Helping and Empowering through Adaptive Language in Mental Enhancement (HealMe) model. This novel cognitive reframing therapy method effectively addresses deep-rooted negative thoughts and fosters rational, balanced perspectives. Diverging from traditional LLM methods, HealMe employs empathetic dialogue based on psychotherapeutic frameworks. It systematically guides clients through distinguishing circumstances from feelings, brainstorming alternative viewpoints, and developing empathetic, actionable suggestions. Moreover, we adopt the first comprehensive and expertly crafted psychological evaluation metrics, specifically designed to rigorously assess the performance of cognitive reframing, in both AI-simulated dialogues and real-world therapeutic conversations. Experimental results show that our model outperforms others in terms of empathy, guidance, and logical coherence, demonstrating its effectiveness and potential positive impact on psychotherapy.

Scene Graph Generation (SGG) remains a challenging task due to its compositional property. Previous approaches improve prediction efficiency by learning in an end-to-end manner. However, these methods exhibit limited performance as they assume unidirectional conditioning between entities and predicates, leading to insufficient information interaction. To address this limitation, we propose a novel bidirectional conditioning factorization for SGG, introducing efficient interaction between entities and predicates. Specifically, we develop an end-to-end scene graph generation model, Bidirectional Conditioning Transformer (BCTR), to implement our factorization. BCTR consists of two key modules. First, the Bidirectional Conditioning Generator (BCG) facilitates multi-stage interactive feature augmentation between entities and predicates, enabling mutual benefits between the two predictions. Second, Random Feature Alignment (RFA) regularizes the feature space by distilling multi-modal knowledge from pre-trained models, enhancing BCTR's ability on tailed categories without relying on statistical priors. We conduct a series of experiments on Visual Genome and Open Image V6, demonstrating that BCTR achieves state-of-the-art performance on both benchmarks. The code will be available upon acceptance of the paper.

Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) have emerged as a powerful paradigm for 3D scene representation, offering high-fidelity renderings and reconstructions from a set of sparse and unstructured sensor data. In the context of autonomous robotics, where perception and understanding of the environment are pivotal, NeRF holds immense promise for improving performance. In this paper, we present a comprehensive survey and analysis of the state-of-the-art techniques for utilizing NeRF to enhance the capabilities of autonomous robots. We especially focus on the perception, localization and navigation, and decision-making modules of autonomous robots and delve into tasks crucial for autonomous operation, including 3D reconstruction, segmentation, pose estimation, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), navigation and planning, and interaction. Our survey meticulously benchmarks existing NeRF-based methods, providing insights into their strengths and limitations. Moreover, we explore promising avenues for future research and development in this domain. Notably, we discuss the integration of advanced techniques such as 3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS), large language models (LLM), and generative AIs, envisioning enhanced reconstruction efficiency, scene understanding, decision-making capabilities. This survey serves as a roadmap for researchers seeking to leverage NeRFs to empower autonomous robots, paving the way for innovative solutions that can navigate and interact seamlessly in complex environments.

Audio deepfake detection (ADD) is crucial to combat the misuse of speech synthesized from generative AI models. Existing ADD models suffer from generalization issues, with a large performance discrepancy between in-domain and out-of-domain data. Moreover, the black-box nature of existing models limits their use in real-world scenarios, where explanations are required for model decisions. To alleviate these issues, we introduce a new ADD model that explicitly uses the StyleLInguistics Mismatch (SLIM) in fake speech to separate them from real speech. SLIM first employs self-supervised pretraining on only real samples to learn the style-linguistics dependency in the real class. The learned features are then used in complement with standard pretrained acoustic features (e.g., Wav2vec) to learn a classifier on the real and fake classes. When the feature encoders are frozen, SLIM outperforms benchmark methods on out-of-domain datasets while achieving competitive results on in-domain data. The features learned by SLIM allow us to quantify the (mis)match between style and linguistic content in a sample, hence facilitating an explanation of the model decision.

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are typically assessed using expensive annotated multimodal benchmarks, which often lag behind the rapidly evolving demands of MLLM evaluation. This paper outlines and validates GenCeption, a novel, annotation-free evaluation method that requires only unimodal data to measure inter-modality semantic coherence and inversely assesses MLLMs' tendency to hallucinate. This approach eliminates the need for costly data annotation, minimizes the risk of training data contamination, results in slower benchmark saturation, and avoids the illusion of emerging abilities. Inspired by the DrawCeption game, GenCeption begins with a non-textual sample and proceeds through iterative description and generation steps. The semantic drift across iterations is quantified using the GC@T metric. Based on the GenCeption method, we establish the MMECeption benchmark for evaluating Vision LLMs (VLLMs), and compare performance of several popular VLLMs and human annotators. Our empirical results validate GenCeption's effectiveness, demonstrating strong correlations with established VLLM benchmarks. VLLMs still significantly lack behind human performance and struggle especially with text-intensive tasks.

Multi-exposure High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging is a challenging task when facing truncated texture and complex motion. Existing deep learning-based methods have achieved great success by either following the alignment and fusion pipeline or utilizing attention mechanism. However, the large computation cost and inference delay hinder them from deploying on resource limited devices. In this paper, to achieve better efficiency, a novel Selective Alignment Fusion Network (SAFNet) for HDR imaging is proposed. After extracting pyramid features, it jointly refines valuable area masks and cross-exposure motion in selected regions with shared decoders, and then fuses high quality HDR image in an explicit way. This approach can focus the model on finding valuable regions while estimating their easily detectable and meaningful motion. For further detail enhancement, a lightweight refine module is introduced which enjoys privileges from previous optical flow, selection masks and initial prediction. Moreover, to facilitate learning on samples with large motion, a new window partition cropping method is presented during training. Experiments on public and newly developed challenging datasets show that proposed SAFNet not only exceeds previous SOTA competitors quantitatively and qualitatively, but also runs order of magnitude faster. Code and dataset is available at //github.com/ltkong218/SAFNet.

The Bird's-eye View (BeV) representation is widely used for 3D perception from multi-view camera images. It allows to merge features from different cameras into a common space, providing a unified representation of the 3D scene. The key component is the view transformer, which transforms image views into the BeV. However, actual view transformer methods based on geometry or cross-attention do not provide a sufficiently detailed representation of the scene, as they use a sub-sampling of the 3D space that is non-optimal for modeling the fine structures of the environment. In this paper, we propose GaussianBeV, a novel method for transforming image features to BeV by finely representing the scene using a set of 3D gaussians located and oriented in 3D space. This representation is then splattered to produce the BeV feature map by adapting recent advances in 3D representation rendering based on gaussian splatting. GaussianBeV is the first approach to use this 3D gaussian modeling and 3D scene rendering process online, i.e. without optimizing it on a specific scene and directly integrated into a single stage model for BeV scene understanding. Experiments show that the proposed representation is highly effective and place GaussianBeV as the new state-of-the-art on the BeV semantic segmentation task on the nuScenes dataset.
