TopoTuner: Topological Finetuning of Large Language Models

Abdulkadir Erol, Yash Mahajan, Vepaul Hariprashad +4

Full fine-tuning remains a strong way to adapt pretrained LLMs, but it updates all weights and can be expensive. LoRA reduces the number of trainable parameters, but it does not di…

CompLLM: Compression for Long Context Q&A

Gabriele Berton, Jayakrishnan Unnikrishnan, Son Tran +1

Large Language Models (LLMs) face significant computational challenges when processing long contexts due to the quadratic complexity of self-attention. While soft context compressi…

Weakly-Supervised Spatiotemporal Anomaly Detection

Urvi Gianchandani, Praveen Tirupattur, Mubarak Shah

In this paper, we explore a weakly supervised method for anomaly detection. Since annotating videos is time-consuming, we only look at weak video-level labels during training. This…

Dystruct: Dynamically Structured Diffusion Language Model Decoding via Bayesian Inference

Bian Sun, Kevin Zhai, Mubarak Shah +1

Diffusion language models (DLMs) have recently emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive models, primarily due to their ability to enable parallel decoding. Despite this…

Direct Preference Optimization for Primitive-Enabled Hierarchical RL: A Bilevel Approach

Utsav Singh, Souradip Chakraborty, Wesley A. Suttle +6

Hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL) enables agents to solve complex, long-horizon tasks by decomposing them into manageable sub-tasks. However, HRL methods face two fundament…

VidTAG: Temporally Aligned Video to GPS Geolocalization with Denoising Sequence Prediction at a Global Scale

Parth Parag Kulkarni, Rohit Gupta, Prakash Chandra Chhipa +1

The task of video geolocalization aims to determine the precise GPS coordinates of a video's origin and map its trajectory; with applications in forensics, social media, and explor…
