Learning by Analogy: A Causal Framework for Composition Generalization
Lingjing Kong, Shaoan Xie, Yang Jiao +6
Compositional generalization -- the ability to understand and generate novel combinations of learned concepts -- enables models to extend their capabilities beyond limited experien…
Beyond the Black Box: Identifiable Interpretation and Control in Generative Models via Causal Minimality
Lingjing Kong, Shaoan Xie, Guangyi Chen +4
Deep generative models, while revolutionizing fields like image and text generation, largely operate as opaque ``black boxes'', hindering human understanding, control, and alignmen…
CausalVerse: Benchmarking Causal Representation Learning with Configurable High-Fidelity Simulations
Guangyi Chen, Yunlong Deng, Peiyuan Zhu +4
Causal Representation Learning (CRL) aims to uncover the data-generating process and identify the underlying causal variables and relations, whose evaluation remains inherently cha…
Towards Self-Refinement of Vision-Language Models with Triangular Consistency
Yunlong Deng, Guangyi Chen, Tianpei Gu +4
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) integrate visual knowledge with the analytical capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) through supervised visual instruction tuning, using image-…
Selection, Reflection and Self-Refinement: Revisit Reasoning Tasks via a Causal Lens
Yunlong Deng, Boyang Sun, Yan Li +4
Due to their inherent complexity, reasoning tasks have long been regarded as rigorous benchmarks for assessing the capabilities of machine learning models, especially large languag…
Advancing Reasoning in Diffusion Language Models with Denoising Process Rewards
Shaoan Xie, Lingjing Kong, Xiangchen Song +4
Diffusion-based large language models offer a non-autoregressive alternative for text generation, but enabling them to perform complex reasoning remains challenging. Reinforcement…
SmartCLIP: Modular Vision-language Alignment with Identification Guarantees
Shaoan Xie, Lingjing Kong, Yujia Zheng +5
Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP)~\citep{radford2021learning} has emerged as a pivotal model in computer vision and multimodal learning, achieving state-of-the-art per…
Should Bias be Eliminated? A General Framework to Use Bias for OOD Generalization
Yan Li, Yunlong Deng, Zijian Li +4
Most approaches to out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization learn domain-invariant representations by discarding contextual bias. In this paper, we raise a critical question: Shoul…
