Unified Value Alignment for Generative Recommendation in Industrial Advertising

Generative Recommendation (GR) reformulates recommendation as a next-token generation problem and has shown promise in industrial applications. However, extending GR to industrial advertising is non-trivial because the system must optimize not only user interest but also commercial value. Existing GR pipelines remain largely semantics-centric, making it difficult to align value signals across tokenization, decoding, and online serving. To address this issue, we propose UniVA, a Unified Value Alignment framework for advertising recommendation. We first introduce a Commercial SID tokenizer that injects value-related attributes into SID construction, yielding value-discriminative item representations. We then develop a Generation-as-Ranking SID Decoder jointly optimized by supervised learning and eCPM-aware reinforcement learning, which fuses value scores into next-item SID generation to perform generation and ranking in one decoding process. Finally, we design a value-guided personalized beam search that reuses generation-as-ranking logits as online value guidance and applies a personalized trie tree to constrain decoding to request-valid SID paths. Experiments on the Tencent WeChat Channels advertising platform show that UniVA achieves a 37.04\% improvement in offline Hit Rate@100 over the baseline and a 1.5\% GMV lift in online A/B tests.

Siamese Encoder-based Spatial-Temporal Mixer for Growth Trend Prediction of Lung Nodules on CT Scans

In the management of lung nodules, we are desirable to predict nodule evolution in terms of its diameter variation on Computed Tomography (CT) scans and then provide a follow-up recommendation according to the predicted result of the growing trend of the nodule. In order to improve the performance of growth trend prediction for lung nodules, it is vital to compare the changes of the same nodule in consecutive CT scans. Motivated by this, we screened out 4,666 subjects with more than two consecutive CT scans from the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) dataset to organize a temporal dataset called NLSTt. In specific, we first detect and pair regions of interest (ROIs) covering the same nodule based on registered CT scans. After that, we predict the texture category and diameter size of the nodules through models. Last, we annotate the evolution class of each nodule according to its changes in diameter. Based on the built NLSTt dataset, we propose a siamese encoder to simultaneously exploit the discriminative features of 3D ROIs detected from consecutive CT scans. Then we novelly design a spatial-temporal mixer (STM) to leverage the interval changes of the same nodule in sequential 3D ROIs and capture spatial dependencies of nodule regions and the current 3D ROI. According to the clinical diagnosis routine, we employ hierarchical loss to pay more attention to growing nodules. The extensive experiments on our organized dataset demonstrate the advantage of our proposed method. We also conduct experiments on an in-house dataset to evaluate the clinical utility of our method by comparing it against skilled clinicians.

Visual Subtitle Feature Enhanced Video Outline Generation

With the tremendously increasing number of videos, there is a great demand for techniques that help people quickly navigate to the video segments they are interested in. However, current works on video understanding mainly focus on video content summarization, while little effort has been made to explore the structure of a video. Inspired by textual outline generation, we introduce a novel video understanding task, namely video outline generation (VOG). This task is defined to contain two sub-tasks: (1) first segmenting the video according to the content structure and then (2) generating a heading for each segment. To learn and evaluate VOG, we annotate a 10k+ dataset, called DuVOG. Specifically, we use OCR tools to recognize subtitles of videos. Then annotators are asked to divide subtitles into chapters and title each chapter. In videos, highlighted text tends to be the headline since it is more likely to attract attention. Therefore we propose a Visual Subtitle feature Enhanced video outline generation model (VSENet) which takes as input the textual subtitles together with their visual font sizes and positions. We consider the VOG task as a sequence tagging problem that extracts spans where the headings are located and then rewrites them to form the final outlines. Furthermore, based on the similarity between video outlines and textual outlines, we use a large number of articles with chapter headings to pretrain our model. Experiments on DuVOG show that our model largely outperforms other baseline methods, achieving 77.1 of F1-score for the video segmentation level and 85.0 of ROUGE-L_F0.5 for the headline generation level.

Weighted Concordance Index Loss-based Multimodal Survival Modeling for Radiation Encephalopathy Assessment in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Radiotherapy

Radiation encephalopathy (REP) is the most common complication for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) radiotherapy. It is highly desirable to assist clinicians in optimizing the NPC radiotherapy regimen to reduce radiotherapy-induced temporal lobe injury (RTLI) according to the probability of REP onset. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first exploration of predicting radiotherapy-induced REP by jointly exploiting image and non-image data in NPC radiotherapy regimen. We cast REP prediction as a survival analysis task and evaluate the predictive accuracy in terms of the concordance index (CI). We design a deep multimodal survival network (MSN) with two feature extractors to learn discriminative features from multimodal data. One feature extractor imposes feature selection on non-image data, and the other learns visual features from images. Because the priorly balanced CI (BCI) loss function directly maximizing the CI is sensitive to uneven sampling per batch. Hence, we propose a novel weighted CI (WCI) loss function to leverage all REP samples effectively by assigning their different weights with a dual average operation. We further introduce a temperature hyper-parameter for our WCI to sharpen the risk difference of sample pairs to help model convergence. We extensively evaluate our WCI on a private dataset to demonstrate its favourability against its counterparts. The experimental results also show multimodal data of NPC radiotherapy can bring more gains for REP risk prediction.

Deep Bilateral Retinex for Low-Light Image Enhancement

Low-light images, i.e. the images captured in low-light conditions, suffer from very poor visibility caused by low contrast, color distortion and significant measurement noise. Low-light image enhancement is about improving the visibility of low-light images. As the measurement noise in low-light images is usually significant yet complex with spatially-varying characteristic, how to handle the noise effectively is an important yet challenging problem in low-light image enhancement. Based on the Retinex decomposition of natural images, this paper proposes a deep learning method for low-light image enhancement with a particular focus on handling the measurement noise. The basic idea is to train a neural network to generate a set of pixel-wise operators for simultaneously predicting the noise and the illumination layer, where the operators are defined in the bilateral space. Such an integrated approach allows us to have an accurate prediction of the reflectance layer in the presence of significant spatially-varying measurement noise. Extensive experiments on several benchmark datasets have shown that the proposed method is very competitive to the state-of-the-art methods, and has significant advantage over others when processing images captured in extremely low lighting conditions.

Pathomic Fusion: An Integrated Framework for Fusing Histopathology and Genomic Features for Cancer Diagnosis and Prognosis

Cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic response predictions are based on morphological information from histology slides and molecular profiles from genomic data. However, most deep learning-based objective outcome prediction and grading paradigms are based on histology or genomics alone and do not make use of the complementary information in an intuitive manner. In this work, we propose Pathomic Fusion, an interpretable strategy for end-to-end multimodal fusion of histology image and genomic (mutations, CNV, RNA-Seq) features for survival outcome prediction. Our approach models pairwise feature interactions across modalities by taking the Kronecker product of unimodal feature representations and controls the expressiveness of each representation via a gating-based attention mechanism. Following supervised learning, we are able to interpret and saliently localize features across each modality, and understand how feature importance shifts when conditioning on multimodal input. We validate our approach using glioma and clear cell renal cell carcinoma datasets from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), which contains paired whole-slide image, genotype, and transcriptome data with ground truth survival and histologic grade labels. In a 15-fold cross-validation, our results demonstrate that the proposed multimodal fusion paradigm improves prognostic determinations from ground truth grading and molecular subtyping, as well as unimodal deep networks trained on histology and genomic data alone. The proposed method establishes insight and theory on how to train deep networks on multimodal biomedical data in an intuitive manner, which will be useful for other problems in medicine that seek to combine heterogeneous data streams for understanding diseases and predicting response and resistance to treatment.

Recurrent Exposure Generation for Low-Light Face Detection

Face detection from low-light images is challenging due to limited photos and inevitable noise, which, to make the task even harder, are often spatially unevenly distributed. A natural solution is to borrow the idea from multi-exposure, which captures multiple shots to obtain well-exposed images under challenging conditions. High-quality implementation/approximation of multi-exposure from a single image is however nontrivial. Fortunately, as shown in this paper, neither is such high-quality necessary since our task is face detection rather than image enhancement. Specifically, we propose a novel Recurrent Exposure Generation (REG) module and couple it seamlessly with a Multi-Exposure Detection (MED) module, and thus significantly improve face detection performance by effectively inhibiting non-uniform illumination and noise issues. REG produces progressively and efficiently intermediate images corresponding to various exposure settings, and such pseudo-exposures are then fused by MED to detect faces across different lighting conditions. The proposed method, named REGDet, is the first `detection-with-enhancement' framework for low-light face detection. It not only encourages rich interaction and feature fusion across different illumination levels, but also enables effective end-to-end learning of the REG component to be better tailored for face detection. Moreover, as clearly shown in our experiments, REG can be flexibly coupled with different face detectors without extra low/normal-light image pairs for training. We tested REGDet on the DARK FACE low-light face benchmark with thorough ablation study, where REGDet outperforms previous state-of-the-arts by a significant margin, with only negligible extra parameters.

STH: Spatio-Temporal Hybrid Convolution for Efficient Action Recognition

Effective and Efficient spatio-temporal modeling is essential for action recognition. Existing methods suffer from the trade-off between model performance and model complexity. In this paper, we present a novel Spatio-Temporal Hybrid Convolution Network (denoted as "STH") which simultaneously encodes spatial and temporal video information with a small parameter cost. Different from existing works that sequentially or parallelly extract spatial and temporal information with different convolutional layers, we divide the input channels into multiple groups and interleave the spatial and temporal operations in one convolutional layer, which deeply incorporates spatial and temporal clues. Such a design enables efficient spatio-temporal modeling and maintains a small model scale. STH-Conv is a general building block, which can be plugged into existing 2D CNN architectures such as ResNet and MobileNet by replacing the conventional 2D-Conv blocks (2D convolutions). STH network achieves competitive or even better performance than its competitors on benchmark datasets such as Something-Something (V1 & V2), Jester, and HMDB-51. Moreover, STH enjoys performance superiority over 3D CNNs while maintaining an even smaller parameter cost than 2D CNNs.

Weakly-Supervised Multi-Level Attentional Reconstruction Network for Grounding Textual Queries in Videos

The task of temporally grounding textual queries in videos is to localize one video segment that semantically corresponds to the given query. Most of the existing approaches rely on segment-sentence pairs (temporal annotations) for training, which are usually unavailable in real-world scenarios. In this work we present an effective weakly-supervised model, named as Multi-Level Attentional Reconstruction Network (MARN), which only relies on video-sentence pairs during the training stage. The proposed method leverages the idea of attentional reconstruction and directly scores the candidate segments with the learnt proposal-level attentions. Moreover, another branch learning clip-level attention is exploited to refine the proposals at both the training and testing stage. We develop a novel proposal sampling mechanism to leverage intra-proposal information for learning better proposal representation and adopt 2D convolution to exploit inter-proposal clues for learning reliable attention map. Experiments on Charades-STA and ActivityNet-Captions datasets demonstrate the superiority of our MARN over the existing weakly-supervised methods.
