Task-Specific Prompt with Global Context for Multi-Task Graph Pre-Training

Graph prompt learning is an effective paradigm to adapt pre-trained graph models to downstream tasks in low-resource scenarios. However, existing multi-task graph pre-training frameworks generally use randomly initialized prompts, leading to poor alignment between the prompt space, pretext objectives and graph structural characteristics. This greatly weakens the task relevance, structural awareness and transferability of prompt representations. To address this challenge, we propose TPGC, a dual-prior prompt initialization solution that explicitly models the synergy between task prior and structural prior. Specifically, the Task-Prior Injection Module first conducts a short homologous multi-task pre-training on an auxiliary graph, enabling prompt initialization to inherit optimization preferences associated with multiple pretext tasks. Built on the task-aware representations, the Structure-Prior Injection Module further extracts transferable global structural context from the auxiliary graph, converting it into layer-wise prompt vectors by aggregating structurally informative node embeddings. Extensive experiments on 6 mainstream benchmarks covering node and graph classification show that TPGC achieves consistently better performance under few-shot settings than state-of-the-art baselines, with fewer downstream tunable parameters and lower runtime.

Contrastive masked auto-encoders based self-supervised hashing for 2D image and 3D point cloud cross-modal retrieval

Implementing cross-modal hashing between 2D images and 3D point-cloud data is a growing concern in real-world retrieval systems. Simply applying existing cross-modal approaches to this new task fails to adequately capture latent multi-modal semantics and effectively bridge the modality gap between 2D and 3D. To address these issues without relying on hand-crafted labels, we propose contrastive masked autoencoders based self-supervised hashing (CMAH) for retrieval between images and point-cloud data. We start by contrasting 2D-3D pairs and explicitly constraining them into a joint Hamming space. This contrastive learning process ensures robust discriminability for the generated hash codes and effectively reduces the modality gap. Moreover, we utilize multi-modal auto-encoders to enhance the model's understanding of multi-modal semantics. By completing the masked image/point-cloud data modeling task, the model is encouraged to capture more localized clues. In addition, the proposed multi-modal fusion block facilitates fine-grained interactions among different modalities. Extensive experiments on three public datasets demonstrate that the proposed CMAH significantly outperforms all baseline methods.

CHAIN: Exploring Global-Local Spatio-Temporal Information for Improved Self-Supervised Video Hashing

Compressing videos into binary codes can improve retrieval speed and reduce storage overhead. However, learning accurate hash codes for video retrieval can be challenging due to high local redundancy and complex global dependencies between video frames, especially in the absence of labels. Existing self-supervised video hashing methods have been effective in designing expressive temporal encoders, but have not fully utilized the temporal dynamics and spatial appearance of videos due to less challenging and unreliable learning tasks. To address these challenges, we begin by utilizing the contrastive learning task to capture global spatio-temporal information of videos for hashing. With the aid of our designed augmentation strategies, which focus on spatial and temporal variations to create positive pairs, the learning framework can generate hash codes that are invariant to motion, scale, and viewpoint. Furthermore, we incorporate two collaborative learning tasks, i.e., frame order verification and scene change regularization, to capture local spatio-temporal details within video frames, thereby enhancing the perception of temporal structure and the modeling of spatio-temporal relationships. Our proposed Contrastive Hashing with Global-Local Spatio-temporal Information (CHAIN) outperforms state-of-the-art self-supervised video hashing methods on four video benchmark datasets. Our codes will be released.

Hyperbolic Hierarchical Contrastive Hashing

Hierarchical semantic structures, naturally existing in real-world datasets, can assist in capturing the latent distribution of data to learn robust hash codes for retrieval systems. Although hierarchical semantic structures can be simply expressed by integrating semantically relevant data into a high-level taxon with coarser-grained semantics, the construction, embedding, and exploitation of the structures remain tricky for unsupervised hash learning. To tackle these problems, we propose a novel unsupervised hashing method named Hyperbolic Hierarchical Contrastive Hashing (HHCH). We propose to embed continuous hash codes into hyperbolic space for accurate semantic expression since embedding hierarchies in hyperbolic space generates less distortion than in hyper-sphere space and Euclidean space. In addition, we extend the K-Means algorithm to hyperbolic space and perform the proposed hierarchical hyperbolic K-Means algorithm to construct hierarchical semantic structures adaptively. To exploit the hierarchical semantic structures in hyperbolic space, we designed the hierarchical contrastive learning algorithm, including hierarchical instance-wise and hierarchical prototype-wise contrastive learning. Extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art unsupervised hashing methods. Codes will be released.
