Research

• Detecting and refurbishing ground truth errors during training of deep learning- — Iman Islam, Bram Ruijsink, Andrew J. Reader. Deep learning-based medical image segmentation typically relies on ground truth (GT) labels obtained through manual annotation, but these can be prone to random errors or systematic biases.
• Loop Corrections to the Training and Generalization Errors of Random Feature Mod — Taeyoung Kim. We investigate random feature models in which neural networks sampled from a prescribed initialization ensemble are frozen and used as random features, with only the readout weights optimized.
• RePAIR: Interactive Machine Unlearning through Prompt-Aware Model Repair — Jagadeesh Rachapudi, Pranav Singh, Ritali Vatsi. Large language models (LLMs) inherently absorb harmful knowledge, misinformation, and personal data during pretraining on large-scale web corpora, with no native mechanism for selective removal.
• DocSeeker: Structured Visual Reasoning with Evidence Grounding for Long Document — Hao Yan, Yuliang Liu, Xingchen Liu. Existing Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) suffer from significant performance degradation on the long document understanding task as document length increases.
• Algorithmic Analysis of Dense Associative Memory: Finite-Size Guarantees and Adv — Madhava Gaikwad. Dense Associative Memory (DAM) generalizes Hopfield networks through higher-order interactions and achieves storage capacity that scales as $O(N^{n-1})$ under suitable pattern separation conditions.
