ICDAR 20242024Companies and organizations grapple with the daily burden of document processing. As manual handling is tedious and error-prune, automating this process is a significant goal. In response to this demand, research on table extraction and information extraction from scanned documents in gaining increasing traction. These extractions are fulfilled by machine learning models that require large-scale and realistic

2024Referring Expression Generation (REG) is the task of generating a description that unambiguously identifies a given target in the scene. Different from Image Captioning (IC), REG requires learning fine-grained characteristics of not only the scene objects but also their surrounding context. Referring expressions are usually not singular; an object can often be uniquely referenced in numerous ways, for in-stance

SIGIR 2024, KDD 2023 Workshop on Knowledge Augmented Methods for NLP2024How can we enhance the node features acquired from Pretrained Models (PMs) to better suit downstream graph learning tasks? Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have become the state-of-the-art approach for many high-impact, real-world graph applications. For feature-rich graphs, a prevalent practice involves directly utilizing a PM to generate features. Nevertheless, this practice is suboptimal as the node features

2024Existing text-to-image generative models reflect or even amplify societal biases ingrained in their training data. This is especially concerning for human image generation where models are biased against certain demographic groups. Existing attempts to rectify this issue are hindered by the inherent limitations of the pre-trained models and fail to substantially improve demographic diversity. In this work
