Robust Zero-Shot Generalization for Open-Vocabulary Action Recognition via Task Arithmetic
Francesca Morandi, Omayma Moussadek, Federico Venturini +5
Open Vocabulary Action Recognition (OVAR) enables the recognition of novel actions by leveraging vision-language representations, overcoming the limitations of traditional closed-s…
CAMASA: A CAM-based Dataset from the MASA Living Lab
Salvatore Iandolo, Marco Savarese, Gaetano Orazio Cauchi +5
Trajectory prediction is a key enabler of autonomous and cooperative driving systems. However, most existing benchmarks are either sensor-centric, geographically constrained, or ba…
Distilling Linearized Behavior into Non-Linear Fine-Tuning for Effective Task Arithmetic
Thomas Sommariva, Francesca Morandi, Simone Calderara +1
Task vector composition has emerged as a promising paradigm for editing pre-trained models, enabling model merging through addition and unlearning through subtraction. Fine-tuning…
Dataless Weight Disentanglement in Task Arithmetic via Kronecker-Factored Approximate Curvature
Angelo Porrello, Pietro Buzzega, Felix Dangel +4
Task Arithmetic yields a modular, scalable way to adapt foundation models. Combining multiple task vectors, however, can lead to cross-task interference, causing representation dri…
Transporting Task Vectors across Different Architectures without Training
Filippo Rinaldi, Aniello Panariello, Giacomo Salici +2
Adapting large pre-trained models to downstream tasks often produces task-specific parameter updates that are expensive to relearn for every model variant. While recent work has sh…
Zero-Shot Synthetic-to-Real Handwritten Text Recognition via Task Analogies
Carlos Garrido-Munoz, Aniello Panariello, Silvia Cascianelli +4
Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) models trained on synthetic handwriting often struggle to generalize to real text, and existing adaptation methods still require real samples fro…
