ProtoDCS: Towards Robust and Efficient Open-Set Test-Time Adaptation for Vision-Language Models
Wei Luo, Yangfan Ou, Jin Deng +4
Large-scale Vision-Language Models (VLMs) exhibit strong zero-shot recognition, yet their real-world deployment is challenged by distribution shifts. While Test-Time Adaptation (TT…
Precedent-Informed Reasoning: Mitigating Overthinking in Large Reasoning Models via Test-Time Precedent Learning
Qianyue Wang, Jinwu Hu, Huanxiang Lin +5
Reasoning in Large Language Models (LLMs) often suffers from inefficient long chain-of-thought traces with redundant self-exploration and validation, which inflate computational co…
Beyond Fast and Slow: Cognitive-Inspired Elastic Reasoning for Large Language Models
Jinwu Hu, Dongjin Yang, Langyu Bian +6
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive performance across various language tasks. However, existing LLM reasoning strategies mainly rely on the LLM itself with f…
Beyond Model Scaling: Test-Time Intervention for Efficient Deep Reasoning
Qianyue Wang, Jinwu Hu, Yufeng Wang +5
Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) excel at multi-step reasoning but often suffer from inefficient reasoning processes like overthinking and overshoot, where excessive or misdirected re…
Continual Knowledge Adaptation for Reinforcement Learning
Jinwu Hu, Zihao Lian, Zhiquan Wen +5
Reinforcement Learning enables agents to learn optimal behaviors through interactions with environments. However, real-world environments are typically non-stationary, requiring ag…
Adapt in the Wild: Test-Time Entropy Minimization with Sharpness and Feature Regularization
Shuaicheng Niu, Guohao Chen, Deyu Chen +7
Test-time adaptation (TTA) may fail to improve or even harm the model performance when test data have: 1) mixed distribution shifts, 2) small batch sizes, 3) online imbalanced labe…
