CASE: Causal Alignment and Structural Enforcement for Improving Chain-of-Thought Faithfulness

Ziming Wang, Yinghua Yao, Changwu Huang +2

Chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning is widely used to improve both the performance and interpretability of large language models (LLMs), yet the generated reasoning may not faithfully…

Generative Co-Design of Antibody Sequences and Structures via Black-Box Guidance in a Shared Latent Space

Yinghua Yao, Yuangang Pan, Xixian Chen

Advancements in deep generative models have enabled the joint modeling of antibody sequence and structure, given the antigen-antibody complex as context. However, existing approach…

Alpha and Prejudice: Improving -sized Worst-case Fairness via Intrinsic Reweighting

Jing Li, Yinghua Yao, Yuangang Pan +3

Worst-case fairness with off-the-shelf demographics achieves group parity by maximizing the model utility of the worst-off group. Nevertheless, demographic information is often una…

Robust Deep Learning Models Against Semantic-Preserving Adversarial Attack

Dashan Gao, Yunce Zhao, Yinghua Yao +3

Deep learning models can be fooled by small -norm adversarial perturbations and natural perturbations in terms of attributes. Although the robustness against each perturbation…

TRIP: Refining Image-to-Image Translation via Rival Preferences

Yinghua Yao, Yuangang Pan, Ivor W. Tsang +1

Relative attribute (RA), referring to the preference over two images on the strength of a specific attribute, can enable fine-grained image-to-image translation due to its rich sem…

Differential-Critic GAN: Generating What You Want by a Cue of Preferences

Yinghua Yao, Yuangang Pan, Ivor W. Tsang +1

This paper proposes Differential-Critic Generative Adversarial Network (DiCGAN) to learn the distribution of user-desired data when only partial instead of the entire dataset posse…
