In-Context Inpainting for Time Series Forecasting

Thang Nguyen, Dung Nguyen, Romero Morais +1

We propose ICI-Time, a novel framework that reframes time series forecasting as a visual inpainting task, leveraging the generalisation power of large vision models (LVMs). Unlike…

Enhancing Length Extrapolation in Sequential Models with Pointer-Augmented Neural Memory

Hung Le, Dung Nguyen, Kien Do +2

We propose Pointer-Augmented Neural Memory (PANM) to help neural networks understand and apply symbol processing to new, longer sequences of data. PANM integrates an external neura…

Revisiting the Dataset Bias Problem from a Statistical Perspective

Kien Do, Dung Nguyen, Hung Le +6

In this paper, we study the "dataset bias" problem from a statistical standpoint, and identify the main cause of the problem as the strong correlation between a class attribute u a…

Variational Flow Models: Flowing in Your Style

Kien Do, Duc Kieu, Toan Nguyen +4

We propose a systematic training-free method to transform the probability flow of a "linear" stochastic process characterized by the equation X_{t}=a_{t}X_{0}+σ_{t}X_{1} into a str…

Memory-Augmented Theory of Mind Network

Dung Nguyen, Phuoc Nguyen, Hung Le +3

Social reasoning necessitates the capacity of theory of mind (ToM), the ability to contextualise and attribute mental states to others without having access to their internal cogni…
