PRISM: Reducing Spurious Implicit Biases in Vision-Language Models with LLM-Guided Embedding Projection
Mahdiyar Molahasani, Azadeh Motamedi, Michael Greenspan +2
We introduce Projection-based Reduction of Implicit Spurious bias in vision-language Models (PRISM), a new data-free and task-agnostic solution for bias mitigation in VLMs like CLI…
Federated Domain Generalization with Label Smoothing and Balanced Decentralized Training
Milad Soltany, Farhad Pourpanah, Mahdiyar Molahasani +2
In this paper, we propose a novel approach, Federated Domain Generalization with Label Smoothing and Balanced Decentralized Training (FedSB), to address the challenges of data hete…
Federated Unsupervised Domain Generalization using Global and Local Alignment of Gradients
Farhad Pourpanah, Mahdiyar Molahasani, Milad Soltany +2
We address the problem of federated domain generalization in an unsupervised setting for the first time. We first theoretically establish a connection between domain shift and alig…
AI-Powered Low-Order Focal Plane Wavefront Sensing in Infrared
Mojtaba Taheri, Mahdiyar Molahasani, Sam Ragland +2
Adaptive optics (AO) systems are crucial for high-resolution astronomical observations by compensating for atmospheric turbulence. While laser guide stars (LGS) address high-order…
