PMCE: Probabilistic Multi-Granularity Semantics with Caption-Guided Enhancement for Few-Shot Learning

Few-shot learning aims to identify novel categories from only a handful of labeled samples, where prototypes estimated from scarce data are often biased and generalize poorly. Semantic-based methods alleviate this by introducing coarse class-level information, but they are mostly applied on the support side, leaving query representations unchanged. In this paper, we present PMCE, a Probabilistic few-shot framework that leverages Multi-granularity semantics with Caption-guided Enhancement. PMCE constructs a nonparametric knowledge bank that stores visual statistics for each category as well as CLIP-encoded class name embeddings of the base classes. At meta-test time, the most relevant base classes are retrieved based on the similarities of class name embeddings for each novel category. These statistics are then aggregated into category-specific prior information and fused with the support set prototypes via a simple MAP update. Simultaneously, a frozen BLIP captioner provides label-free instance-level image descriptions, and a lightweight enhancer trained on base classes optimizes both support prototypes and query features under an inductive protocol with a consistency regularization to stabilize noisy captions. Experiments on four benchmarks show that PMCE consistently improves over strong baselines, achieving up to 7.71% absolute gain over the strongest semantic competitor on MiniImageNet in the 1-shot setting.

UltraLogic: Enhancing LLM Reasoning through Large-Scale Data Synthesis and Bipolar Float Reward

While Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated significant potential in natural language processing , complex general-purpose reasoning requiring multi-step logic, planning, and verification remains a critical bottleneck. Although Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) has succeeded in specific domains , the field lacks large-scale, high-quality, and difficulty-calibrated data for general reasoning. To address this, we propose UltraLogic, a framework that decouples the logical core of a problem from its natural language expression through a Code-based Solving methodology to automate high-quality data production. The framework comprises hundreds of unique task types and an automated calibration pipeline across ten difficulty levels. Furthermore, to mitigate binary reward sparsity and the Non-negative Reward Trap, we introduce the Bipolar Float Reward (BFR) mechanism, utilizing graded penalties to effectively distinguish perfect responses from those with logical flaws. Our experiments demonstrate that task diversity is the primary driver for reasoning enhancement , and that BFR, combined with a difficulty matching strategy, significantly improves training efficiency, guiding models toward global logical optima.

SIE3D: Single-Image Expressive 3D Avatar Generation via Semantic Embedding and Perceptual Expression Loss

Generating high-fidelity 3D head avatars from a single image is challenging, as current methods lack fine-grained, intuitive control over expressions via text. This paper proposes SIE3D, a framework that generates expressive 3D avatars from a single image and descriptive text. SIE3D fuses identity features from the image with semantic embedding from text through a novel conditioning scheme, enabling detailed control. To ensure generated expressions accurately match the text, it introduces an innovative perceptual expression loss function. This loss uses a pre-trained expression classifier to regularize the generation process, guaranteeing expression accuracy. Extensive experiments show SIE3D significantly improves controllability and realism, outperforming competitive methods in identity preservation and expression fidelity on a single consumer-grade GPU.

MaXIFE: Multilingual and Cross-lingual Instruction Following Evaluation

With the rapid adoption of large language models (LLMs) in natural language processing, the ability to follow instructions has emerged as a key metric for evaluating their practical utility. However, existing evaluation methods often focus on single-language scenarios, overlooking the challenges and differences present in multilingual and cross-lingual contexts. To address this gap, we introduce MaXIFE: a comprehensive evaluation benchmark designed to assess instruction-following capabilities across 23 different languages with 1667 verifiable instruction tasks. MaXIFE integrates both Rule-Based Evaluation and Model-Based Evaluation, ensuring a balance of efficiency and accuracy. We applied MaXIFE to evaluate several leading commercial LLMs, establishing baseline results for future comparisons. By providing a standardized tool for multilingual instruction-following evaluation, MaXIFE aims to advance research and development in natural language processing.

Extensible Multi-Granularity Fusion Network and Transferable Curriculum Learning for Aspect-based Sentiment Analysis

Aspect-based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) aims to determine sentiment polarity toward specific aspects in text. Existing methods enrich semantic and syntactic representations through external knowledge or GNNs, but the growing diversity of linguistic features increases model complexity and lacks a unified, extensible framework. We propose an Extensible Multi-Granularity Fusion Network (EMGF) that integrates dependency syntax, constituent syntax, attention-based semantics, and external knowledge graphs. EMGF employs multi-anchor triplet learning and orthogonal projection to effectively fuse multi-granularity features and strengthen their interactions without additional computational overhead. Furthermore, we introduce the first task-specific curriculum learning framework for text-only ABSA, which assigns difficulty scores using five indicators and trains the model from easy to hard to mimic human learning and improve generalization. Experiments on SemEval 2014, Twitter, and MAMS datasets show that EMGF+CL consistently outperforms state-of-the-art ABSA models.

Logit Poisoning Attack in Distillation-based Federated Learning and its Countermeasures

Distillation-based federated learning has emerged as a promising collaborative learning approach, where clients share the output logit vectors of a public dataset rather than their private model parameters. This practice reduces the risk of privacy invasion attacks and facilitates heterogeneous learning. The landscape of poisoning attacks within distillation-based federated learning is complex, with existing research employing traditional data poisoning strategies targeting the models' parameters. However, these attack schemes primarily have shortcomings rooted in their original designs, which target the model parameters rather than the logit vectors. Furthermore, they do not adequately consider the role of logit vectors in carrying information during the knowledge transfer process. This misalignment results in less efficiency in the context of distillation-based federated learning. Due to the limitations of existing methodologies, our research delves into the intrinsic properties of the logit vector, striving for a more nuanced understanding. We introduce a two-stage scheme for logit poisoning attacks, addressing previous shortcomings. Initially, we collect the local logits, generate the representative vectors, categorize the logit elements within the vector, and design a shuffling table to maximize information entropy. Then, we intentionally scale the shuffled logit vectors to enhance the magnitude of the target vectors. Concurrently, we propose an efficient defense algorithm to counter this new poisoning scheme by calculating the distance between estimated benign vectors and vectors uploaded by users. Through extensive experiments, our study illustrates the significant threat posed by the proposed logit poisoning attack and highlights the effectiveness of our defense algorithm.

HSD: A hierarchical singing annotation dataset

Commonly music has an obvious hierarchical structure, especially for the singing parts which usually act as the main melody in pop songs. However, most of the current singing annotation datasets only record symbolic information of music notes, ignoring the structure of music. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical singing annotation dataset that consists of 68 pop songs from Youtube. This dataset records the onset/offset time, pitch, duration, and lyric of each musical note in an enhanced LyRiCs format to present the hierarchical structure of music. We annotate each song in a two-stage process: first, create initial labels with the corresponding musical notation and lyrics file; second, manually calibrate these labels referring to the raw audio. We mainly validate the labeling accuracy of the proposed dataset by comparing it with an automatic singing transcription (AST) dataset. The result indicates that the proposed dataset reaches the labeling accuracy of AST datasets.

SGE net: Video object detection with squeezed GRU and information entropy map

Recently, deep learning based video object detection has attracted more and more attention. Compared with object detection of static images, video object detection is more challenging due to the motion of objects, while providing rich temporal information. The RNN-based algorithm is an effective way to enhance detection performance in videos with temporal information. However, most studies in this area only focus on accuracy while ignoring the calculation cost and the number of parameters. In this paper, we propose an efficient method that combines channel-reduced convolutional GRU (Squeezed GRU), and Information Entropy map for video object detection (SGE-Net). The experimental results validate the accuracy improvement, computational savings of the Squeezed GRU, and superiority of the information entropy attention mechanism on the classification performance. The mAP has increased by 3.7 contrasted with the baseline, and the number of parameters has decreased from 6.33 million to 0.67 million compared with the standard GRU.

A Semi-Supervised Classification Method of Apicomplexan Parasites and Host Cell Using Contrastive Learning Strategy

A common shortfall of supervised learning for medical imaging is the greedy need for human annotations, which is often expensive and time-consuming to obtain. This paper proposes a semi-supervised classification method for three kinds of apicomplexan parasites and non-infected host cells microscopic images, which uses a small number of labeled data and a large number of unlabeled data for training. There are two challenges in microscopic image recognition. The first is that salient structures of the microscopic images are more fuzzy and intricate than natural images' on a real-world scale. The second is that insignificant textures, like background staining, lightness, and contrast level, vary a lot in samples from different clinical scenarios. To address these challenges, we aim to learn a distinguishable and appearance-invariant representation by contrastive learning strategy. On one hand, macroscopic images, which share similar shape characteristics in morphology, are introduced to contrast for structure enhancement. On the other hand, different appearance transformations, including color distortion and flittering, are utilized to contrast for texture elimination. In the case where only 1% of microscopic images are labeled, the proposed method reaches an accuracy of 94.90% in a generalized testing set.
