Tranx-Adapter: Bridging Artifacts And Semantics Within Mllms For Robust Ai-Generated Image Detection, Wenbin Wang, Yuge Huang, Jianqing Xu, Yue Yu, Jiangtao Yan, Shouhong Ding, Pan Zhou, Yong Luo

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Rapid advances in AI-generated image (AIGI) technology enable highly realistic synthesis, threatening public information integrity and security. Recent studies have demonstrated that incorporating texture-level artifact features alongside semantic features into multimodal large language models (MLLMs) can enhance their AIGI detection capability. However, our preliminary analyses reveal that artifact features exhibit high intra-feature similarity, leading to an almost uniform attention map after the softmax operation. This phenomenon causes attention dilution, thereby hindering effective fusion between semantic and artifact features. To overcome this limitation, we propose a lightweight fusion adapter, TranX-Adapter, which integrates a Task-aware Optimal-Transport Fusion that leverages the Jensen-Shannon divergence …

Towards Uniformity And Alignment For Multimodal Representation Learning, Wenzhe Yin, Pan Zhou, Zehao Xiao, Jie Liu, Shujian Yu, Jan-Jakob Sonke, Efstratios Gavves Jul 2026

Towards Uniformity And Alignment For Multimodal Representation Learning, Wenzhe Yin, Pan Zhou, Zehao Xiao, Jie Liu, Shujian Yu, Jan-Jakob Sonke, Efstratios Gavves

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Multimodal representation learning aims to construct a shared embedding space in which heterogeneous modalities are semantically aligned. Despite strong empirical results, InfoNCE-based objectives introduce inherent conflicts that yield distribution gaps across modalities. In this work, we identify two conflicts in the multimodal regime, both exacerbated as the number of modalities increases: (i) an alignment–uniformity conflict, whereby the repulsion of uniformity undermines pairwise alignment, and (ii) an intra-alignment conflict, where aligning multiple modalities induces competing alignment directions. To address these issues, we propose a principled decoupling of alignment and uniformity for multimodal representations, providing a conflict-free recipe for multimodal learning that …

Variational Speculative Decoding: Rethinking Draft Training From Token Likelihood To Sequence Acceptance, Xiandong Zou, Jianshu Li, Jing Huang, Pan Zhou Jul 2026

Variational Speculative Decoding: Rethinking Draft Training From Token Likelihood To Sequence Acceptance, Xiandong Zou, Jianshu Li, Jing Huang, Pan Zhou

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Speculative decoding accelerates inference for (M)LLMs, yet a training-decoding discrepancy persists: while existing methods optimize single greedy trajectories, decoding involves verifying and ranking multiple sampled draft paths. We propose Variational Speculative Decoding (VSD), formulating draft training as variational inference over latent proposals (draft paths). VSD maximizes the marginal probability of target-model acceptance, yielding an ELBO that promotes high-quality latent proposals while minimizing divergence from the target distribution. To enhance quality and reduce variance, we incorporate a path-level utility and optimize via an Expectation-Maximization procedure. The E-step draws MCMC samples from an oracle-filtered posterior, while the M-step maximizes weighted likelihood using …

Dual-Diffusional Generative Fashion Recommendation, Mingzhe Yu, Lei Wu, Qianru Sun, Yunshan Ma Jul 2026

Dual-Diffusional Generative Fashion Recommendation, Mingzhe Yu, Lei Wu, Qianru Sun, Yunshan Ma

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Personalized generative recommender systems have emerged as a promising solution for fashion recommendation. However, existing methods primarily rely on implicit visual embeddings from historical interactions, which often contain preference-irrelevant information and result in insufficient user behavior modeling. Moreover, these models typically generate only item images, providing limited interpretability. To address these limitations, we propose DualFashion, a Dual-Diffusional Generative Fashion Recommendation Architecture that jointly models image and text modalities for personalized and explainable recommendation. DualFashion adopts a dual-diffusion Transformer with image and text branches, where structured attribute-level captions and visual outfit information are jointly used as conditioning signals to model user …

Itimo: An Llm-Empowered Synthesis Dataset For Travel Itinerary Modification, Zhuoxuan Huang, Yunshan Ma, Hongyu Zhang, Hua Ma, Zhu Sun

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Addressing itinerary modification is crucial for enhancing the travel experience as it is a frequent requirement during traveling. However, existing research mainly focuses on fixed itinerary planning, leaving modification underexplored due to the scarcity of shape need-to-modify itinerary data. To bridge this gap, we formally define the itinerary modification task and propose a general pipeline to construct the corresponding dataset, namely iTIMO. This pipeline frames the generation of shape need-to-modify itinerary data as an intent-driven perturbation task. It instructs large language models to perturb real-world itineraries using three operations: REPLACE, ADD, and DELETE. Each perturbation is grounded in three intents: …

Multicbr: Multi‑View Contrastive Learning For Bundle Recommendation, Yunshan Ma, Yingzhi He, Xiang Wang, Yinwei Wei, Xiaoyu Du, Yuyangzi Fu, Tat‑Seng Chua Jul 2026

Multicbr: Multi‑View Contrastive Learning For Bundle Recommendation, Yunshan Ma, Yingzhi He, Xiang Wang, Yinwei Wei, Xiaoyu Du, Yuyangzi Fu, Tat‑Seng Chua

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Bundle recommendation seeks to recommend a bundle of related items to users to improve both userexperience and the profits of platform. Existing bundle recommendation models have progressed from capturing only user-bundle interactions to the modeling of multiple relations among users, bundles, and items.CrossCBR, in particular, incorporates cross-view contrastive learning into a two-view preference learningframework, significantly improving SOTA performance. It does, however, have two limitations: (1) the twoview formulation does not fully exploit all the heterogeneous relations among users, bundles, and items; and(2) the “early contrast and late fusion” framework is less effective in capturing user preference and difficultto generalize to …

Multimodal Contrastive Spatiotemporal Self-Organizing Neural Networks For In-Home Activity Learning Of Mild Cognitive Impairment, Seng Khoon Teh, Ah-Hwee Tan, Kar Way Tan, Iris Rawtaer

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

In-home spatiotemporal data, such as the movement trajectory data and the spatial time series data, contains potential predictive utility for detection of geriatric conditions including Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), frailty, and cognitive frailty. However, few have explored spatiotemporal learning models for learning and fusion of such disparate spatiotemporal data, owing to the lack of a generalized machine learning model that can jointly model these different spatiotemporal data types. This work reports a multimodal spatiotemporal machine learning model based on a class of self-organizing neural networks that can integrate different spatiotemporal data types for MCI detection. Specifically, Episodic Memory Adaptive Resonance …

Accountable Agents In Software Engineering: An Analysis Of Terms Of Service And A Research Roadmap, Christoph Treude

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

AI coding assistants and autonomous agents are becoming integral to software development workflows, reshaping how code is produced, reviewed, and maintained. While recent research has focused mainly on the capabilities and impacts of productivity of these systems, much less attention has been paid to accountability: who is responsible when agents generate, modify, or recommend code? In practice, accountability is defined through the Terms of Service (ToS) and related policy documents that govern the use of AI-powered development tools.In this vision paper, we present a comparative analysis of the Terms of Service for widely used AI coding assistants and agent-enabled development …

A Framework For Top-K Queries With Constrained Preferences, Kyriakos Mouratidis, Nikolaos Chaloulakos, Bo Tang Jul 2026

A Framework For Top-K Queries With Constrained Preferences, Kyriakos Mouratidis, Nikolaos Chaloulakos, Bo Tang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Traditional rank-aware processing assumes a dataset that contains available options to cover a specific need (e.g., restaurants, hotels, etc) and users who browse that dataset via top-k queries with linear scoring functions, i.e., by ranking the options according to the weighted sum of their attributes, for a set of given weights. In practice, however, user preferences (weights) may only be estimated with bounded accuracy, or may be inherently imprecise due to the inability of a human user to specify exact weight values with absolute accuracy. Motivated by this, we define the constrained-preference top-k (CT) query. Given an approximate description of …

Oscbench: Benchmarking Object State Change In Text-To-Video Generation, Xianjing Han, Bin Zhu, Shiqi Hu, Franklin Mingzhe Li, Patrick Carrington, Roger Zimmermann, Jingjing Chen Jul 2026

Oscbench: Benchmarking Object State Change In Text-To-Video Generation, Xianjing Han, Bin Zhu, Shiqi Hu, Franklin Mingzhe Li, Patrick Carrington, Roger Zimmermann, Jingjing Chen

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Text-to-video (T2V) generation models have made rapid progress in producing visually high-quality and temporally coherent videos. However, existing benchmarks primarily focus on perceptual quality, text–video alignment, or physical plausibility, leaving a critical aspect of action understanding largely unexplored: object state change (OSC) explicitly specified in the text prompt. OSC refers to the transformation of an object’s state induced by an action, such as peeling a potato or slicing a lemon. In this paper, we introduce OSCBench, a benchmark specifically designed to assess OSC performance in T2V models. OSCBench is constructed from instructional cooking data and systematically organizes action–object interactions into …

Larger Is Not Always Better: Exploring Small Open-Source Language Models In Logging Statement Generation, Renyi Zhong, Yichen Li, Guangba Yu, Wenwei Gu, Jinxi Kuang, Yintong Huo, Michael R. Lyu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Developers use logging statements to create logs that document system behavior and aid in software maintenance. As such, high-quality logging is essential for effective maintenance; however, manual logging often leads to errors and inconsistency. Recent methods emphasize using large language models (LLMs) for automated logging statement generation, but these present privacy and resource issues, hindering their suitability for enterprise use. This paper presents the first large-scale empirical study evaluating small open-source language models (SOLMs) for automated logging statement generation. We evaluate four prominent SOLMs using various prompt strategies and parameter-efficient fine-tuning techniques, such as Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation …

Constrained Assortment Optimization Under The Mixed-Logit Model, Hoang Giang Pham, Tien Mai Jul 2026

Constrained Assortment Optimization Under The Mixed-Logit Model, Hoang Giang Pham, Tien Mai

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

In this paper, we study the assortment optimization problem under the mixed-logit customer choice model. While assortment optimization has been a central topic in revenue management for decades, the mixed-logit model is widely regarded as one of the most general and flexible frameworks for modeling and predicting customer purchasing behavior. The assortment optimization problem is known to be NP-hard to be approximated to any constant factor, even in the unconstrained case. To address this challenge, we first explore the submodularity properties of a simplified version of the objective function to derive novel semi-constant factor approximation solutions for assortment problems under …

Air: Improving Agent Safety Through Incident Response, Zibo Xiao, Jun Sun, Junjie Chen Jul 2026

Air: Improving Agent Safety Through Incident Response, Zibo Xiao, Jun Sun, Junjie Chen

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Large Language Model (LLM) agents are increasingly deployed in practice across a wide range of autonomous applications. Yet current safety mechanisms for LLM agents focus almost exclusively on preventing failures in advance, providing limited capabilities for responding to, containing, or recovering from incidents after they inevitably arise. In this work, we introduce AIR, the first incident response framework for LLM agent systems. AIR defines a domain-specific language for managing the incident response lifecycle autonomously in LLM agent systems, and integrates it into the agent's execution loop to (1) detect incidents via semantic checks grounded in the current environment state and …

Knowledge-State Generative Agents For Pre-Assessment Question Evaluation, Ping Fan Ke, Yi Meng Lau, Siaw Ling Lo Jul 2026

Knowledge-State Generative Agents For Pre-Assessment Question Evaluation, Ping Fan Ke, Yi Meng Lau, Siaw Ling Lo

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

This paper introduces a Knowledge‑State Generative Agent framework for evaluating the quality of pre‑assessment questions. The framework employs large language model (LLM)–based agents prompted to adopt a teacher persona to simulate the responses of students with and without mastery of targeted knowledge components. A preliminary empirical study using archival data from 424 students enrolled in an Information Systems Management course indicates that the proposed approach yields interpretable metrics under Classical Test Theory. Results further show that agents instantiated with the relevant mastered knowledge components exhibit systematically higher performance than agents lacking such mastery. In addition, the study suggests that teacher-persona …

Tumor-Immune Dynamics With Memory And Time Delay: A Fractional-Order Model With Ctla-4 Regulation, Mutaz Mohammad, Mohyeedden Sweidan, Alexander Trounev, Fathalla Rihan Jun 2026

Tumor-Immune Dynamics With Memory And Time Delay: A Fractional-Order Model With Ctla-4 Regulation, Mutaz Mohammad, Mohyeedden Sweidan, Alexander Trounev, Fathalla Rihan

All Works

This study develops a fractional-order tumor-immune interaction model incorporating Caputo memory effects, delayed immune activation, and CTLA-4 checkpoint regulation. The model describes the coupled dynamics of tumor cells, CD4^+ T cells, IFN-γ, and CTLA-4, and extends classical integer-order tumor-immune models by accounting for hereditary immune responses and biologically motivated latency effects. Theoretical properties, including positivity, boundedness, equilibrium structure, and fractional-order stability, are examined to establish the biological and mathematical consistency of the model. The delayed fractional system is then investigated computationally by comparing several numerical methods, including finite difference discretization, Daubechies wavelet collocation, Euler wavelet collocation, and a predictor-corrector scheme. …

An Interactive Multi-Objective Programming Approach For Optimizing Fully Trapezoidal Spherical Fuzzy Linear Programming Problem With Application, Sultan S. Alodhaibi, Hissah Ibrahim Almuzini, Hamiden Abd El-Wahed Khalifa

Neutrosophic Systems with Applications

In this paper, a linear programming framework with completely uncertain parameters is investigated by employing trapezoidal spherical fuzzy numbers (TrSFNs). The proposed formulation incorporates a spherical fuzzy (SF) decision environment in which the optimization process simultaneously maximizes the degree of positive membership while minimizing the corresponding neutral and negative membership degrees. By utilizing the concept of the α -cut associated with TrSFNs, the original fully fuzzy linear programming problem is transformed into an interval-valued linear programming model with confidence levels. To rank and compare the resulting interval objective values, an interval ordering approach based on the decision maker's preferences—considering the …

Interval-Valued Neutrosophic Dombi Bonferroni Mean Aggregation Operators In Medical Diagnosis And Sustainable Energy, Maryam Faisal, Muhammad Nadeem, Muhammad Kamran Jun 2026

Interval-Valued Neutrosophic Dombi Bonferroni Mean Aggregation Operators In Medical Diagnosis And Sustainable Energy, Maryam Faisal, Muhammad Nadeem, Muhammad Kamran

Neutrosophic Systems with Applications

Medical diagnosis is one of the most difficult fields in which decisions must be made due to the fact that medical information often has characteristics of uncertainty, incompleteness, imprecision and even contradiction. Traditional aggregation and decision-making methods are often not well suited to such complexities, and may result in less reliable diagnostic outcomes. In order to overcome these drawbacks, the authors propose a new approach using a novel representation of Interval-Valued Neutrosophic Sets (IVNSs), the Dombi operational laws, and Bonferroni Mean (BM) aggregation operators. The proposed framework is specifically aimed at coping with uncertainty, indeterminacy and falsity all at once …

Exploiting Uncertainty Of Computational Methodology In Optimizing User Interface In Human-Computer Interaction, Nada Mohamed, Alshaimaa A. Tantawy Jun 2026

Exploiting Uncertainty Of Computational Methodology In Optimizing User Interface In Human-Computer Interaction, Nada Mohamed, Alshaimaa A. Tantawy

Neutrosophic Systems with Applications

Human-computer interaction (HCI) evaluation and optimization of user interfaces (UIs) constitute a complex multi-criteria decision-making challenge, marked by conflicting evaluation dimensions, subjective expert judgments, and inherent uncertainty in user experience assessment. Traditional evaluation approaches, such as heuristic expert reviews and user satisfaction surveys, rely on sharp, binary classifications that fail to capture the gradual and overlapping nature of human cognitive and affective states. This limitation necessitates a more robust uncertainty-aware methodology that can model the true complexity of HCI evaluation. This paper proposes a hybrid mathematical model that integrates various Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) techniques of Entropy, and Simple Additive …

Generative Endurance Logic: An Axiomatic Framework For Reasoning About Outcome-Generating Objects Under Constraints, Hafiz Burhan Ul Haq, Muhammad Nauman Irshad Jun 2026

Generative Endurance Logic: An Axiomatic Framework For Reasoning About Outcome-Generating Objects Under Constraints, Hafiz Burhan Ul Haq, Muhammad Nauman Irshad

Neutrosophic Systems with Applications

This paper introduces Generative Endurance Logic (GEL), a formal framework for studying objects through the outcomes they can produce. In many cases, an object cannot be judged only by a fixed truth value, score, or utility value. A rule, model, action, or strategy may behave well in one situation but fail when the context changes or when small perturbations occur. GEL addresses this issue by treating each object as a generator of outcomes. Each object a is linked to a generation map Ga:X×Ω→Y, where X is the context space, Ω is the …

Recursive Neutrosophic Superhypergraphs With Illustrative Applications, Takaaki Fujita, Ajoy Kanti Das, Suman Das, Sankar Prasad Mondal, Volkan Duran Jun 2026

Recursive Neutrosophic Superhypergraphs With Illustrative Applications, Takaaki Fujita, Ajoy Kanti Das, Suman Das, Sankar Prasad Mondal, Volkan Duran

Neutrosophic Systems with Applications

Finite hypergraphs generalize ordinary graphs by permitting each hyperedge to join any nonempty set of vertices, and thus provide a natural model for truly multiway interactions. To represent hierarchical and multi-layer structure, SuperHyperGraphs iterate the powerset operation so that set-valued entities created at one level can be treated as vertices at higher levels. Independently, recursive hypergraphs allow edge recursion: an edge may contain not only vertices but also lower-level edges, yielding nested (and possibly self-referential) incidence controlled by a specified recursion depth. In this work we introduce and axiomatize Recursive Neutrosophic SuperHyperGraphs, a unified framework that combines vertex …
