Deep neural networks are likely to fail when the test data is corrupted in real-world deployment (e.g., blur, weather, etc.). Test-time optimization is an effective way that adapts models to generalize to corrupted data during testing,…

Reconstructing dynamic scenes from video sequences is a highly promising task in the multimedia domain. While previous methods have made progress, they often struggle with slow rendering and managing temporal complexities such as…

Bayesian optimization (BO) is effective for expensive black-box problems but remains challenging in high dimensions. We propose NeST-BO, a curvature-aware local BO method that targets a (modified) Newton step by jointly learning gradient…

Bayesian optimization (BO) offers an elegant approach for efficiently optimizing black-box functions. However, acquisition criteria demand their own challenging inner-optimization, which can induce significant overhead. Many practical BO…

Weakly supervised visual grounding aims to predict the region in an image that corresponds to a specific linguistic query, where the mapping between the target object and query is unknown in the training stage. The state-of-the-art method…

Optimizing objectives under constraints, where both the objectives and constraints are black box functions, is a common scenario in real-world applications such as scientific experimental design, design of medical therapies, and industrial…

Temporal sentence grounding in videos(TSGV), which aims to localize one target segment from an untrimmed video with respect to a given sentence query, has drawn increasing attentions in the research community over the past few years.…

Weakly-supervised temporal action localization aims to localize and recognize actions in untrimmed videos with only video-level category labels during training. Without instance-level annotations, most existing methods follow the…

Many real-world optimisation problems such as hyperparameter tuning in machine learning or simulation-based optimisation can be formulated as expensive-to-evaluate black-box functions. A popular approach to tackle such problems is Bayesian…

Most research in Bayesian optimization (BO) has focused on \emph{direct feedback} scenarios, where one has access to exact values of some expensive-to-evaluate objective. This direction has been mainly driven by the use of BO in machine…

Bayesian Optimization (BO) is a common solution to search optimal hyperparameters based on sample observations of a machine learning model. Existing BO algorithms could converge slowly even collapse when the potential observation noise…

This paper strives for spatio-temporal localization of human actions in videos. In the literature, the consensus is to achieve localization by training on bounding box annotations provided for each frame of each training video. As…
