Information retrieval lies at the foundation of the modern digital industry. While natural language search has seen dramatic progress in recent years largely driven by embedding-based models and large-scale pretraining, the field still…
Visual dialogue is a challenging task that needs to extract implicit information from both visual (image) and textual (dialogue history) contexts. Classical approaches pay more attention to the integration of the current question, vision…
Extracting compact, physically interpretable representations from high-dimensional scientific data is a persistent challenge due to the complex, nonlinear structures inherent in physical systems. We propose a Gaussian Mixture Variational…
Embedding based methods are widely used for unsupervised keyphrase extraction (UKE) tasks. Generally, these methods simply calculate similarities between phrase embeddings and document embedding, which is insufficient to capture different…
Multimodal fact verification is an under-explored and emerging field that has gained increasing attention in recent years. The goal is to assess the veracity of claims that involve multiple modalities by analyzing the retrieved evidence.…
The discovery of new materials has a documented history of propelling human progress for centuries and more. The behaviour of a material is a function of its composition, structure, and properties, which further depend on its processing and…
Over the past decade, significant advances have been made in the field of image search for e-commerce applications. Traditional image-to-image retrieval models, which focus solely on image details such as texture, tend to overlook useful…
Graph neural networks (GNNs) have become a powerful tool for processing graph-structured data but still face challenges in effectively aggregating and propagating information between layers, which limits their performance. We tackle this…
Recently, the structural reading comprehension (SRC) task on web pages has attracted increasing research interests. Although previous SRC work has leveraged extra information such as HTML tags or XPaths, the informative topology of web…
Despite the remarkable progress achieved by recent efficient methods in accelerating multimodal understanding, they still suffer from noticeable performance degradation. Their emphasis on the high compression ratio of a single visual clue…
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) with numerical node features and graph structure as inputs have demonstrated superior performance on various supervised learning tasks with graph data. However the numerical node features utilized by GNNs are…
Knowledge graphs suffer from sparsity which degrades the quality of representations generated by various methods. While there is an abundance of textual information throughout the web and many existing knowledge bases, aligning information…
We present a new formulation for structured information extraction (SIE) from visually rich documents. It aims to address the limitations of existing IOB tagging or graph-based formulations, which are either overly reliant on the correct…
Most multi-modal knowledge graph completion (MMKGC) models use one embedding scorer to do both retrieval over the full entity set and final decision making. We argue that this coupling is a core bottleneck: global high-recall search and…
Graph autoencoders (AE) and variational autoencoders (VAE) recently emerged as powerful node embedding methods. In particular, graph AE and VAE were successfully leveraged to tackle the challenging link prediction problem, aiming at…
End-to-end visual information extraction (VIE) aims at integrating the hierarchical subtasks of VIE, including text spotting, word grouping, and entity labeling, into a unified framework. Dealing with the gaps among the three subtasks plays…
Automatic radiology report generation is booming due to its huge application potential for the healthcare industry. However, existing computer vision and natural language processing approaches to tackle this problem are limited in two…
We introduce a multimodal visual-textual search refinement method for fashion garments. Existing search engines do not enable intuitive, interactive, refinement of retrieved results based on the properties of a particular product. We…
Node Importance Estimation (NIE) is a task that quantifies the importance of node in a graph. Recent research has investigated to exploit various information from Knowledge Graphs (KGs) to estimate node importance scores. However, the…
Generative models of graph structure have applications in biology and social sciences. The state of the art is GraphRNN, which decomposes the graph generation process into a series of sequential steps. While effective for modest sizes, it…
