GoodDiffusion: Proactive Copyright Protection for Diffusion Bridge Models via Learnable Sample-specific Signatures

Shixi Qin, Zhiyong Yang, Shilong Bao +3

This paper tackles the challenging problem of developing a proactive copyright protection mechanism that cuts off unauthorized use of diffusion bridge models. Existing studies larg…

Experience-Driven Dynamic Exits for LLMs with Reinforcement Learning

Yanyu Zhu, Hoilam Pao, Niu Hu +6

Large Language Models suffer from slow autoregressive inference. While self-speculative decoding accelerates this process, its efficiency is hampered by static configurations like…

The Bridge-Garden Dilemma in LLM Distillation: Why Mixing Hard and Soft Labels Works

Guanghui Wang, Kaiwen Lv Kacuila, Zhiyong Yang +5

Knowledge distillation (KD) transfers knowledge from a large teacher model to a smaller student. In language modeling, the student is trained either on tokens sampled from the teac…

Mind the Way You Select Negative Texts: Pursuing the Distance Consistency in OOD Detection with VLMs

Zhikang Xu, Qianqian Xu, Zitai Wang +4

Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection seeks to identify samples from unknown classes, a critical capability for deploying machine learning models in open-world scenarios. Recent rese…

Making Training-Free Diffusion Segmentors Scale with the Generative Power

Benyuan Meng, Qianqian Xu, Zitai Wang +3

As powerful generative models, text-to-image diffusion models have recently been explored for discriminative tasks. A line of research focuses on adapting a pre-trained diffusion m…

DirMixE: Harnessing Test Agnostic Long-tail Recognition with Hierarchical Label Variations

Zhiyong Yang, Qianqian Xu, Sicong Li +3

This paper explores test-agnostic long-tail recognition, a challenging long-tail task where the test label distributions are unknown and arbitrarily imbalanced. We argue that the v…
