An old-school recipe for training a classifier is to (i) learn a good feature extractor and (ii) optimize a linear layer atop. When only a handful of samples are available per category, as in Few-Shot Adaptation (FSA), data are insufficient…
In this paper, we reveal that most current efficient multimodal fine-tuning methods are hindered by a key limitation: they are directly borrowed from LLMs, often neglecting the intrinsic differences of multimodal scenarios and even…
Existing camouflage object detection (COD) methods typically rely on fully-supervised learning guided by mask annotations. However, obtaining mask annotations is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Compared to fully-supervised methods,…
