随着数字化的传统文化遗产文件迅速增加，导致对保存和管理的需求增加，对实体的实际认可和阶级的典型认识已成为必不可少的。为了实现这一目标，我们提出了Kochet - 韩国文化遗产语料库，用于典型实体相关的任务，即指定的实体识别（NER），关系提取（RE）和实体键入（ET）。根据政府附属组织的数据构建指南的文化遗产专家的建议，科切特分别由NER，RE和ET任务的112,362、38,765、113,198个示例组成，涵盖了与韩国文化遗产有关的所有实体类型。此外，与现有的公共语料库不同，可以允许经过修改的重新分配。我们的实验结果使Kochet的实际可用性在文化遗产方面更有价值。我们还从统计和语言分析方面提供了Kochet的实际见解。我们的语料库可以在https://github.com/gyeeongmin47/kochet上免费获得。

基于对话的关系提取（对话）任务旨在预测对话中出现的论点对之间的关系。大多数先前的研究都使用微调预训练的语言模型（PLM），仅具有广泛的功能来补充多个扬声器对话的低信息密度。为了有效利用PLM的固有知识，没有额外的层次，并考虑有关参数之间关系的分散的语义提示，我们提出了一个使用PINGT（grasp）使用关系语义的指导模型。我们采用基于及时的微调方法，并捕获给定对话的关系语义线索，其中1）参数意识的提示标记策略和2）关系线索检测任务。在实验中，GRASP在对话框数据集上以F1和F1C得分来实现最先进的性能，即使我们的方法仅利用PLM，而无需添加任何额外的层。

In this paper, we propose a diffusion-based face swapping framework for the first time, called DiffFace, composed of training ID conditional DDPM, sampling with facial guidance, and a target-preserving blending. In specific, in the training process, the ID conditional DDPM is trained to generate face images with the desired identity. In the sampling process, we use the off-the-shelf facial expert models to make the model transfer source identity while preserving target attributes faithfully. During this process, to preserve the background of the target image and obtain the desired face swapping result, we additionally propose a target-preserving blending strategy. It helps our model to keep the attributes of the target face from noise while transferring the source facial identity. In addition, without any re-training, our model can flexibly apply additional facial guidance and adaptively control the ID-attributes trade-off to achieve the desired results. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first approach that applies the diffusion model in face swapping task. Compared with previous GAN-based approaches, by taking advantage of the diffusion model for the face swapping task, DiffFace achieves better benefits such as training stability, high fidelity, diversity of the samples, and controllability. Extensive experiments show that our DiffFace is comparable or superior to the state-of-the-art methods on several standard face swapping benchmarks.

In this work, we propose a new approach that combines data from multiple sensors for reliable obstacle avoidance. The sensors include two depth cameras and a LiDAR arranged so that they can capture the whole 3D area in front of the robot and a 2D slide around it. To fuse the data from these sensors, we first use an external camera as a reference to combine data from two depth cameras. A projection technique is then introduced to convert the 3D point cloud data of the cameras to its 2D correspondence. An obstacle avoidance algorithm is then developed based on the dynamic window approach. A number of experiments have been conducted to evaluate our proposed approach. The results show that the robot can effectively avoid static and dynamic obstacles of different shapes and sizes in different environments.

We introduce an approach for the answer-aware question generation problem. Instead of only relying on the capability of strong pre-trained language models, we observe that the information of answers and questions can be found in some relevant sentences in the context. Based on that, we design a model which includes two modules: a selector and a generator. The selector forces the model to more focus on relevant sentences regarding an answer to provide implicit local information. The generator generates questions by implicitly combining local information from the selector and global information from the whole context encoded by the encoder. The model is trained jointly to take advantage of latent interactions between the two modules. Experimental results on two benchmark datasets show that our model is better than strong pre-trained models for the question generation task. The code is also available (shorturl.at/lV567).

We introduce TeSS (Text Similarity Comparison using Sentence Encoder), a framework for zero-shot classification where the assigned label is determined by the embedding similarity between the input text and each candidate label prompt. We leverage representations from sentence encoders optimized to locate semantically similar samples closer to each other in embedding space during pre-training. The label prompt embeddings serve as prototypes of their corresponding class clusters. Furthermore, to compensate for the potentially poorly descriptive labels in their original format, we retrieve semantically similar sentences from external corpora and additionally use them with the original label prompt (TeSS-R). TeSS outperforms strong baselines on various closed-set and open-set classification datasets under zero-shot setting, with further gains when combined with label prompt diversification through retrieval. These results are robustly attained to verbalizer variations, an ancillary benefit of using a bi-encoder. Altogether, our method serves as a reliable baseline for zero-shot classification and a simple interface to assess the quality of sentence encoders.

In recent years, generative models have undergone significant advancement due to the success of diffusion models. The success of these models is often attributed to their use of guidance techniques, such as classifier and classifier-free methods, which provides effective mechanisms to trade-off between fidelity and diversity. However, these methods are not capable of guiding a generated image to be aware of its geometric configuration, e.g., depth, which hinders the application of diffusion models to areas that require a certain level of depth awareness. To address this limitation, we propose a novel guidance approach for diffusion models that uses estimated depth information derived from the rich intermediate representations of diffusion models. To do this, we first present a label-efficient depth estimation framework using the internal representations of diffusion models. At the sampling phase, we utilize two guidance techniques to self-condition the generated image using the estimated depth map, the first of which uses pseudo-labeling, and the subsequent one uses a depth-domain diffusion prior. Experiments and extensive ablation studies demonstrate the effectiveness of our method in guiding the diffusion models toward geometrically plausible image generation.

This paper presents a solution to the Weather4cast 2022 Challenge Stage 2. The goal of the challenge is to forecast future high-resolution rainfall events obtained from ground radar using low-resolution multiband satellite images. We suggest a solution that performs data preprocessing appropriate to the challenge and then predicts rainfall movies using a novel RainUNet. RainUNet is a hierarchical U-shaped network with temporal-wise separable block (TS block) using a decoupled large kernel 3D convolution to improve the prediction performance. Various evaluation metrics show that our solution is effective compared to the baseline method. The source codes are available at https://github.com/jinyxp/Weather4cast-2022

Federated Learning has emerged to cope with raising concerns about privacy breaches in using Machine or Deep Learning models. This new paradigm allows the leverage of deep learning models in a distributed manner, enhancing privacy preservation. However, the server's blindness to local datasets introduces its vulnerability to model poisoning attacks and data heterogeneity, tampering with the global model performance. Numerous works have proposed robust aggregation algorithms and defensive mechanisms, but the approaches are orthogonal to individual attacks or issues. FedCC, the proposed method, provides robust aggregation by comparing the Centered Kernel Alignment of Penultimate Layers Representations. The experiment results on FedCC demonstrate that it mitigates untargeted and targeted model poisoning or backdoor attacks while also being effective in non-Independently and Identically Distributed data environments. By applying FedCC against untargeted attacks, global model accuracy is recovered the most. Against targeted backdoor attacks, FedCC nullified attack confidence while preserving the test accuracy. Most of the experiment results outstand the baseline methods.

Generative models have shown great promise in synthesizing photorealistic 3D objects, but they require large amounts of training data. We introduce SinGRAF, a 3D-aware generative model that is trained with a few input images of a single scene. Once trained, SinGRAF generates different realizations of this 3D scene that preserve the appearance of the input while varying scene layout. For this purpose, we build on recent progress in 3D GAN architectures and introduce a novel progressive-scale patch discrimination approach during training. With several experiments, we demonstrate that the results produced by SinGRAF outperform the closest related works in both quality and diversity by a large margin.
