InterMesh: Explicit Interaction-Aware End-to-End Multi-Person Human Mesh Recovery

Humans constantly interact with their surroundings. Existing end-to-end multi-person human mesh recovery methods, typically based on the DETR framework, capture inter-human relationships through self-attention across all human queries. However, these approaches model interactions only implicitly and lack explicit reasoning about how humans interact with objects and with each other. In this paper, we propose InterMesh, a simple yet effective framework that explicitly incorporates human-environment interaction information into human mesh recovery pipeline. By leveraging a human-object interaction detector, InterMesh enriches query representations with structured interaction semantics, enabling more accurate pose and shape estimation. We design lightweight modules, Contextual Interaction Encoder and Interaction-Guided Refiner, to integrate these features into existing HMR architectures with minimal overhead. We validate our approach through extensive experiments on 3DPW, MuPoTS, CMU Panoptic, Hi4D, and CHI3D datasets, demonstrating remarkable improvements over state-of-the-art methods. Notably, InterMesh reduces MPJPE by 9.9% on CMU Panoptic and 8.2% on Hi4D, highlighting its effectiveness in scenarios with complex human-object and inter-human interactions. Code and models are released at https://github.com/Kelly510/InterMesh.

Feature Forgetting in Continual Representation Learning

In continual and lifelong learning, good representation learning can help increase performance and reduce sample complexity when learning new tasks. There is evidence that representations do not suffer from "catastrophic forgetting" even in plain continual learning, but little further fact is known about its characteristics. In this paper, we aim to gain more understanding about representation learning in continual learning, especially on the feature forgetting problem. We devise a protocol for evaluating representation in continual learning, and then use it to present an overview of the basic trends of continual representation learning, showing its consistent deficiency and potential issues. To study the feature forgetting problem, we create a synthetic dataset to identify and visualize the prevalence of feature forgetting in neural networks. Finally, we propose a simple technique using gating adapters to mitigate feature forgetting. We conclude by discussing that improving representation learning benefits both old and new tasks in continual learning.

Table-based Fact Verification with Self-adaptive Mixture of Experts

The table-based fact verification task has recently gained widespread attention and yet remains to be a very challenging problem. It inherently requires informative reasoning over natural language together with different numerical and logical reasoning on tables (e.g., count, superlative, comparative). Considering that, we exploit mixture-of-experts and present in this paper a new method: Self-adaptive Mixture-of-Experts Network (SaMoE). Specifically, we have developed a mixture-of-experts neural network to recognize and execute different types of reasoning -- the network is composed of multiple experts, each handling a specific part of the semantics for reasoning, whereas a management module is applied to decide the contribution of each expert network to the verification result. A self-adaptive method is developed to teach the management module combining results of different experts more efficiently without external knowledge. The experimental results illustrate that our framework achieves 85.1% accuracy on the benchmark dataset TabFact, comparable with the previous state-of-the-art models. We hope our framework can serve as a new baseline for table-based verification. Our code is available at https://github.com/THUMLP/SaMoE.

Applications of BERT Based Sequence Tagging Models on Chinese Medical Text Attributes Extraction

We convert the Chinese medical text attributes extraction task into a sequence tagging or machine reading comprehension task. Based on BERT pre-trained models, we have not only tried the widely used LSTM-CRF sequence tagging model, but also other sequence models, such as CNN, UCNN, WaveNet, SelfAttention, etc, which reaches similar performance as LSTM+CRF. This sheds a light on the traditional sequence tagging models. Since the aspect of emphasis for different sequence tagging models varies substantially, ensembling these models adds diversity to the final system. By doing so, our system achieves good performance on the task of Chinese medical text attributes extraction (subtask 2 of CCKS 2019 task 1).

Label-guided Learning for Text Classification

Text classification is one of the most important and fundamental tasks in natural language processing. Performance of this task mainly dependents on text representation learning. Currently, most existing learning frameworks mainly focus on encoding local contextual information between words. These methods always neglect to exploit global clues, such as label information, for encoding text information. In this study, we propose a label-guided learning framework LguidedLearn for text representation and classification. Our method is novel but simple that we only insert a label-guided encoding layer into the commonly used text representation learning schemas. That label-guided layer performs label-based attentive encoding to map the universal text embedding (encoded by a contextual information learner) into different label spaces, resulting in label-wise embeddings. In our proposed framework, the label-guided layer can be easily and directly applied with a contextual encoding method to perform jointly learning. Text information is encoded based on both the local contextual information and the global label clues. Therefore, the obtained text embeddings are more robust and discriminative for text classification. Extensive experiments are conducted on benchmark datasets to illustrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.

Learning Conceptual-Contextual Embeddings for Medical Text

External knowledge is often useful for natural language understanding tasks. We introduce a contextual text representation model called Conceptual-Contextual (CC) embeddings, which incorporates structured knowledge into text representations. Unlike entity embedding methods, our approach encodes a knowledge graph into a context model. CC embeddings can be easily reused for a wide range of tasks just like pre-trained language models. Our model effectively encodes the huge UMLS database by leveraging semantic generalizability. Experiments on electronic health records (EHRs) and medical text processing benchmarks showed our model gives a major boost to the performance of supervised medical NLP tasks.

Tensor Graph Convolutional Networks for Text Classification

Compared to sequential learning models, graph-based neural networks exhibit some excellent properties, such as ability capturing global information. In this paper, we investigate graph-based neural networks for text classification problem. A new framework TensorGCN (tensor graph convolutional networks), is presented for this task. A text graph tensor is firstly constructed to describe semantic, syntactic, and sequential contextual information. Then, two kinds of propagation learning perform on the text graph tensor. The first is intra-graph propagation used for aggregating information from neighborhood nodes in a single graph. The second is inter-graph propagation used for harmonizing heterogeneous information between graphs. Extensive experiments are conducted on benchmark datasets, and the results illustrate the effectiveness of our proposed framework. Our proposed TensorGCN presents an effective way to harmonize and integrate heterogeneous information from different kinds of graphs.

A Probabilistic Framework for Representing Dialog Systems and Entropy-Based Dialog Management through Dynamic Stochastic State Evolution

In this paper, we present a probabilistic framework for goal-driven spoken dialog systems. A new dynamic stochastic state (DS-state) is then defined to characterize the goal set of a dialog state at different stages of the dialog process. Furthermore, an entropy minimization dialog management(EMDM) strategy is also proposed to combine with the DS-states to facilitate a robust and efficient solution in reaching a user's goals. A Song-On-Demand task, with a total of 38117 songs and 12 attributes corresponding to each song, is used to test the performance of the proposed approach. In an ideal simulation, assuming no errors, the EMDM strategy is the most efficient goal-seeking method among all tested approaches, returning the correct song within 3.3 dialog turns on average. Furthermore, in a practical scenario, with top five candidates to handle the unavoidable automatic speech recognition (ASR) and natural language understanding (NLU) errors, the results show that only 61.7\% of the dialog goals can be successfully obtained in 6.23 dialog turns on average when random questions are asked by the system, whereas if the proposed DS-states are updated with the top 5 candidates from the SLU output using the proposed EMDM strategy executed at every DS-state, then a 86.7\% dialog success rate can be accomplished effectively within 5.17 dialog turns on average. We also demonstrate that entropy-based DM strategies are more efficient than non-entropy based DM. Moreover, using the goal set distributions in EMDM, the results are better than those without them, such as in sate-of-the-art database summary DM.

Simple Deep Random Model Ensemble

Representation learning and unsupervised learning are two central topics of machine learning and signal processing. Deep learning is one of the most effective unsupervised representation learning approach. The main contributions of this paper to the topics are as follows. (i) We propose to view the representative deep learning approaches as special cases of the knowledge reuse framework of clustering ensemble. (ii) We propose to view sparse coding when used as a feature encoder as the consensus function of clustering ensemble, and view dictionary learning as the training process of the base clusterings of clustering ensemble. (ii) Based on the above two views, we propose a very simple deep learning algorithm, named deep random model ensemble (DRME). It is a stack of random model ensembles. Each random model ensemble is a special k-means ensemble that discards the expectation-maximization optimization of each base k-means but only preserves the default initialization method of the base k-means. (iv) We propose to select the most powerful representation among the layers by applying DRME to clustering where the single-linkage is used as the clustering algorithm. Moreover, the DRME based clustering can also detect the number of the natural clusters accurately. Extensive experimental comparisons with 5 representation learning methods on 19 benchmark data sets demonstrate the effectiveness of DRME.

Denoising Deep Neural Networks Based Voice Activity Detection

Recently, the deep-belief-networks (DBN) based voice activity detection (VAD) has been proposed. It is powerful in fusing the advantages of multiple features, and achieves the state-of-the-art performance. However, the deep layers of the DBN-based VAD do not show an apparent superiority to the shallower layers. In this paper, we propose a denoising-deep-neural-network (DDNN) based VAD to address the aforementioned problem. Specifically, we pre-train a deep neural network in a special unsupervised denoising greedy layer-wise mode, and then fine-tune the whole network in a supervised way by the common back-propagation algorithm. In the pre-training phase, we take the noisy speech signals as the visible layer and try to extract a new feature that minimizes the reconstruction cross-entropy loss between the noisy speech signals and its corresponding clean speech signals. Experimental results show that the proposed DDNN-based VAD not only outperforms the DBN-based VAD but also shows an apparent performance improvement of the deep layers over shallower layers.

Transfer Learning for Voice Activity Detection: A Denoising Deep Neural Network Perspective

Mismatching problem between the source and target noisy corpora severely hinder the practical use of the machine-learning-based voice activity detection (VAD). In this paper, we try to address this problem in the transfer learning prospective. Transfer learning tries to find a common learning machine or a common feature subspace that is shared by both the source corpus and the target corpus. The denoising deep neural network is used as the learning machine. Three transfer techniques, which aim to learn common feature representations, are used for analysis. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the transfer learning schemes on the mismatch problem.
