2024Binary classification involves predicting the label of an instance based on whether the model score for the positive class exceeds a threshold chosen as per application needs (e.g., maximizing recall at a precision bound). However, model scores are often not aligned with the true conditional probability of the positive class. This is especially true when the training involves differential sampling across

2024Planning is a crucial task for agents in task oriented dialogs (TODs). Human agents typically resolve user issues by following predefined workflows, decomposing workflow steps into actionable items, and performing actions by executing APIs in order; all of which require reasoning and planning. With the recent advances in LLMs, there have been increasing attempts to use them for task planning and API usage

2024Recent advancement in large language models (LLMs) has offered a strong potential for natural language systems to process informal language. A representative form of informal language is slang, used commonly in daily conversations and online social media. To date, slang has not been comprehensively evaluated in LLMs due partly to the absence of a carefully designed and publicly accessible benchmark. Using

2024Inherent ambiguity in layout annotations poses significant challenges to developing accurate 360◦ room layout estimation models. To address this issue, we propose a novel Bi-Layout model capable of predicting two distinct layout types. One stops at ambiguous regions, while the other ex-tends to encompass all visible areas. Our model employs two global context embeddings, where each embedding is designed

2024Machine learning models face generalization challenges when exposed to out-of-distribution (OOD) samples with unforeseen distribution shifts. Recent research reveals that for vision tasks, test-time adaptation employing diffusion models can achieve state-of-the-art accuracy improvements on OOD samples by generating domain-aligned samples without altering the model’s weights. Unfortunately, those studies
