Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Knowledge utilization is a critical aspect of LLMs, and understanding how they adapt to evolving knowledge is essential for their effective deployment. However, existing benchmarks are predominantly static, failing to capture the evolving nature of LLMs and knowledge, leading to inaccuracies and vulnerabilities such as contamination. In this paper, we introduce EvoWiki, an evolving dataset designed to reflect knowledge evolution by categorizing information into stable, evolved, and uncharted states. EvoWiki is fully auto-updated, enabling precise evaluation of continuously changing knowledge and newly released LLMs. Through experiments with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and Continual Learning (CL), we evaluate how effectively LLMs adapt …

Non-Homophilic Graph Pre-Training And Prompt Learning, Xingtong Yu, Jie Zhang, Yuan Fang, Renhe Jiang Aug 2025

Non-Homophilic Graph Pre-Training And Prompt Learning, Xingtong Yu, Jie Zhang, Yuan Fang, Renhe Jiang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Graphs are ubiquitous for modeling complex relationships between objects across various fields. Graph neural networks (GNNs) have become a mainstream technique for graph-based applications, but their performance heavily relies on abundant labeled data. To reduce labeling requirement, pre-training and prompt learning has become a popular alternative. However, most existing prompt methods do not distinguish between homophilic and heterophilic characteristics in graphs. In particular, many real-world graphs are non-homophilic-neither strictly nor uniformly homophilic-as they exhibit varying homophilic and heterophilic patterns across graphs and nodes. In this paper, we propose ProNoG, a novel pre-training and prompt learning framework for such non-homophilic graphs. …

Bhvit: Binarized Hybrid Vision Transformer, Tian Gao, Yu Zhang, Zhiyuan Zhang, Huajun Liu, Kaijie Yin, Chengzhong Xu, Hui Kong

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Model binarization has made significant progress in enabling real-time and energy-efficient computation for con-volutional neural networks (CNN), offering a potential solution to the deployment challenges faced by Vision Transformers (ViTs) on edge devices. However, due to the structural differences between CNN and Transformer architectures, simply applying binary CNN strategies to the ViT models will lead to a significant performance drop. To tackle this challenge, we propose BHViT, a binarization-friendly hybrid ViT architecture and its full binarization model with the guidance of three important observations. Initially, BHViT utilizes the local information interaction and hierarchical feature aggregation technique from coarse to fine …

Optimal Transport Alignment Of User Preferences From Ratings And Texts, Nhu Thuat Tran, Hady Wirawan Lauw Aug 2025

Optimal Transport Alignment Of User Preferences From Ratings And Texts, Nhu Thuat Tran, Hady Wirawan Lauw

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Modeling hidden factors driving user preferences is crucial for recommendation yet challenging due to sparse rating data. While aligning preference factors from ratings and texts, as a solution, shows improvements, existing methods impose restrictive one-to-one factor correspondences and underutilize cross-modal interest signals. We propose an optimal transport (OT) approach to address these gaps. By modeling rating- and text-based preference factors as distributions, we compute an OT plan that captures their probabilistic relationships. This plan serves dual roles: 1) to regularize cross-modal preference factors without rigid correspondence assumptions, and 2) to blend preference signals across modalities through barycentric mapping. Experiments on …

Information-Theoretic Detection Of Unusual Source Code Changes, Adriano Torres, Markus Wagner, Christoph Treude, Sebastian Baltes

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The code base of software projects evolves essentially through inserting and removing information to and from the source code. We can measure this evolution via the elements of information—tokens, words, nodes—of the respective representation of the code. In this work, we approach the measurement of the information content of the source code of open-source projects from an information-theoretic standpoint. Our focus is on the entropy of two fundamental representations of code: tokens and abstract syntax tree nodes, from which we derive definitions of textual and structural entropy. We proceed with an empirical assessment where we evaluate the evolution patterns of …

Eformer: An Effective Edge-Based Transformer For Vehicle Routing Problems, Dian Meng, Zhiguang Cao, Yaoxin Wu, Yaqing Hou, Hongwei Ge, Qiang Zhang Aug 2025

Eformer: An Effective Edge-Based Transformer For Vehicle Routing Problems, Dian Meng, Zhiguang Cao, Yaoxin Wu, Yaqing Hou, Hongwei Ge, Qiang Zhang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Recent neural heuristics for the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) primarily rely on node coordinates as input, which may be less effective in practical scenarios where real cost metrics--such as edge-based distances--are more relevant. To address this limitation, we introduce EFormer, an Edge-based Transformer model that uses edge as the sole input for VRPs. Our approach employs a precoder module with a mixed-score attention mechanism to convert edge information into temporary node embeddings. We also present a parallel encoding strategy characterized by a graph encoder and a node encoder, each responsible for processing graph and node embeddings in distinct feature spaces, …

Connecting Giants: Synergistic Knowledge Transfer Of Large Multimodal Models For Few-Shot Learning, Hao Tang, Shengfeng He, Jing Qin Aug 2025

Connecting Giants: Synergistic Knowledge Transfer Of Large Multimodal Models For Few-Shot Learning, Hao Tang, Shengfeng He, Jing Qin

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Few-shot learning (FSL) addresses the challenge of classifying novel classes with limited training samples. While some methods leverage semantic knowledge from smaller-scale models to mitigate data scarcity, these approaches often introduce noise and bias due to the data's inherent simplicity. In this paper, we propose a novel framework, Synergistic Knowledge Transfer (SYNTRANS), which effectively transfers diverse and complementary knowledge from large multimodal models to empower the off-the-shelf few-shot learner. Specifically, SYNTRANS employs CLIP as a robust teacher and uses a few-shot vision encoder as a weak student, distilling semantic-aligned visual knowledge via an unsupervised proxy task. Subsequently, a training-free synergistic …

Taclr: A Scalable And Efficient Retrieval-Based Method For Industrial Product Attribute Value Identification, Yindu Su, Huike Zou, Lin Sun, Ting Zhang, Haiyang Yang, Chen Li Yu, David Lo, Qingheng Zhang, Shuguang Han, Jufeng Chen

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Product Attribute Value Identification (PAVI) involves identifying attribute values from product profiles, a key task for improving product search, recommendation, and business analytics on e-commerce platforms. However, existing PAVI methods face critical challenges, such as inferring implicit values, handling outof-distribution (OOD) values, and producing normalized outputs. To address these limitations, we introduce Taxonomy-Aware Contrastive Learning Retrieval (TACLR), the first retrieval-based method for PAVI. TACLR formulates PAVI as an information retrieval task by encoding product profiles and candidate values into embeddings and retrieving values based on their similarity. It leverages contrastive training with taxonomy-aware hard negative sampling and employs adaptive inference …

Starpose: 3d Human Pose Estimation Via Spatial-Temporal Autoregressive Diffusion, Haoxin Yang, Weihong Chen, Xuemiao Xu, Cheng Xu, Peng Xiao, Cuifeng Sun, Shaoyu Huang, Shengfeng He

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Monocular 3D human pose estimation remains a challenging task due to inherent depth ambiguities and occlusions. Compared to traditional methods based on Transformers or Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), recent diffusionbased approaches have shown superior performance, leveraging their probabilistic nature and high-fidelity generation capabilities. However, these methods often fail to account for the spatial and temporal correlations across predicted frames, resulting in limited temporal consistency and inferior accuracy in predicted 3D pose sequences. To address these shortcomings, this paper proposes StarPose, an autoregressive diffusion framework that effectively incorporates historical 3D pose predictions and spatialtemporal physical guidance to significantly enhance both the …

From Risk To Resilience: Towards Assessing And Mitigating The Risk Of Data Reconstruction Attacks In Federated Learning, Xiangrui Xu, Zhize Li, Yufei Han, Bin Wang, Jiqiang Liu, Wei Wang Aug 2025

From Risk To Resilience: Towards Assessing And Mitigating The Risk Of Data Reconstruction Attacks In Federated Learning, Xiangrui Xu, Zhize Li, Yufei Han, Bin Wang, Jiqiang Liu, Wei Wang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Data Reconstruction Attacks (DRA) pose a significant threat to Federated Learning (FL) systems by enabling adversaries to infer sensitive training data from local clients. Despite extensive research, the question of how to characterize and assess the risk of DRAs in FL systems remains unresolved due to the lack of a theoretically-grounded risk quantification framework. In this work, we address this gap by introducing Invertibility Loss (InvLoss) to quantify the maximum achievable effectiveness of DRAs for a given data instance and FL model. We derive a tight and computable upper bound for InvLoss and explore its implications from three perspectives. First, …

Freqllm: Frequency-Aware Large Language Models For Time Series Forecasting, Shunan Wang, Min Gao, Zongwei Wang, Yibing Bai, Feng Jiang, Guansong Pang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Large Language Models (LLMs) have recently shown promise in Time Series Forecasting (TSF) by effectively capturing intricate time-domain dependencies. However, our preliminary experiments reveal that standard LLM-based approaches often fail to capture global correlations, limiting predictive performance. We found that embedding frequency-domain signals smooths weight distributions and enhances structured correlations by clearly separating global trends (low-frequency components) from local variations (high-frequency components). Building on these insights, we propose FreqLLM, a novel framework that integrates frequency-domain semantic alignment into LLMs to refine prompts for improved time series analysis. By bridging the gap between frequency signals and textual embeddings, FreqLLM effectively captures …

Fine‑Tuning Multimodal Large Language Models For Product Bundling, Xiaohao Liu, Jie Wu, Zhulin Tao, Yunshan Ma, Yinwei Wei, Tat-Seng Chua Aug 2025

Fine‑Tuning Multimodal Large Language Models For Product Bundling, Xiaohao Liu, Jie Wu, Zhulin Tao, Yunshan Ma, Yinwei Wei, Tat-Seng Chua

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Recent advances in product bundling have leveraged multimodal information through sophisticated encoders, but remain constrained by limited semantic understanding and a narrow scope of knowledge. Therefore, some attempts employ In-context Learning (ICL) to explore the potential of large language models (LLMs) for their extensive knowledge and complex reasoning abilities. However, these efforts are inadequate in understanding mulitmodal data and exploiting LLMs' knowledge for product bundling. To bridge the gap, we introduce Bundle-MLLM, a novel framework that fine-tunes LLMs through a hybrid item tokenization approach within a well-designed optimization strategy. Specifically, we integrate textual, media, and relational data into a unified …

Anomalygfm: Graph Foundation Model For Zero/Few-Shot Anomaly Detection, Hezhe Qiao, Chaoxi Niu, Ling Chen, Guansong Pang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Graph anomaly detection (GAD) aims to identify abnormal nodes that differ from the majority of the nodes in a graph, which has been attracting significant attention in recent years. Existing generalist graph models have achieved remarkable success in different graph tasks but struggle to generalize to the GAD task. This limitation arises from their difficulty in learning generalized knowledge for capturing the inherently infrequent, irregular and heterogeneous abnormality patterns in graphs from different domains. To address this challenge, we propose AnomalyGFM, a GAD-oriented graph foundation model that supports zero-shot inference and few-shot prompt tuning for GAD in diverse graph datasets. …

Llm2rec: Large Language Models Are Powerful Embedding Models For Sequential Recommendation, Yingzhi He, Xiaohao Liu, An Zhang, Yunshan Ma, Tat‑Seng Chua Aug 2025

Llm2rec: Large Language Models Are Powerful Embedding Models For Sequential Recommendation, Yingzhi He, Xiaohao Liu, An Zhang, Yunshan Ma, Tat‑Seng Chua

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Sequential recommendation aims to predict users' future interactions by modeling collaborative filtering (CF) signals from historical behaviors of similar users or items. Traditional sequential recommenders predominantly rely on ID-based embeddings, which capture CF signals through high-order co-occurrence patterns. However, these embeddings depend solely on past interactions, lacking transferable knowledge to generalize to unseen domains. Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have motivated text-based recommendation approaches that derive item representations from textual descriptions. While these methods enhance generalization, they fail to encode CF signals-i.e., latent item correlations and preference patterns-crucial for effective recommendation. We argue that an ideal embedding model …

Collisionrepair: First‑Aid And Automated Patching For Storage Collision Vulnerabilities In Smart Contracts, Yu Pan, Wanjing Han, Yue Duan, Mu Zhang Aug 2025

Collisionrepair: First‑Aid And Automated Patching For Storage Collision Vulnerabilities In Smart Contracts, Yu Pan, Wanjing Han, Yue Duan, Mu Zhang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Storage collision vulnerabilities, a significant security risk in upgradeable smart contracts, often arise when a user-facing proxy contract and a backend logic contract share storage space. While static analysis techniques can detect such issues, they often over-approximate program states, leading to false positives and requiring developers to manually verify each issue, giving attackers time to exploit any overlooked vulnerabilities. To address this, we propose COLLISIONREPAIR, an automated patching technique for mitigating storage collision risks. COLLISIONREPAIR monitors storage access sequences between proxy and logic contracts by defining an "ownership" property for storage locations. It then replays historical transactions to recover existing …

Achilles: A Formal Framework Of Leaking Secrets From Signature Schemes Via Rowhammer, Junkai Liang, Zhi Zhang, Xin Zhang, Qingni Sheng, Yansong Gao, Xinliang Yuan, Haiyang Xue, Pengfei Wu, Zhonghai. Wu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Signature schemes are a fundamental component of cyber-security infrastructure. While they are designed to be mathematically secure against cryptographic attacks, they are vulnerable to Rowhammer fault-injection attacks. Since all existing attacks are ad-hoc in that they target individual parameters of specific signature schemes, it remains unclear about the impact of Rowhammer on signature schemes as a whole.In this paper, we present Achilles, a formal framework that aids in leaking secrets in various real-world signature schemes via Rowhammer. Particularly, Achilles can be used to find potentially more vulnerable parameters in schemes that have been studied before and also new schemes that …
