Multimodal prediction relies on diverse forms of evidence: information repeated across modalities, cues specific to a single source, and complex cross-modal dependencies that emerge only when inputs are considered together. While recent methods promote richer interactions, they lack a principled way to isolate these ta …
We propose a distributionally robust learning framework where parameters defining the robustness mechanism are learned from held-out data instead of extensively tuned. Using bilevel optimization with both upper and lower level minimax problems, we create two instances of our framework to tackle setups with and without …
Open-world aerial object-goal search is a foundational yet challenging task, requiring aerial agents to autonomously explore large-scale, unstructured three-dimensional environments and reach target objects specified by semantic descriptions or reference images, rather than following route-specific instructions. Howeve …
In LLM-based speech translation, transcription-based chain-of-thought (CoT) suffers from a mismatch between reference transcripts used in supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and model-generated transcripts at inference. To address this, we propose joint recognition and translation fine-tuning via group relative policy optimiz …
