CTISum: A New Benchmark Dataset For Cyber Threat Intelligence Summarization

CTISum: A New Benchmark Dataset For Cyber Threat Intelligence Summarization

arXiv:2408.06576v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) summarization task requires the system to generate concise and accurate highlights from raw intelligence data, which plays an important role in providing decision-makers with crucial information to quickly detect and respond to cyber threats in the cybersecurity domain. However, efficient techniques for summarizing CTI reports, including facts, analytical insights, attack processes, etc., have largely been unexplored, primarily due to the lack of available dataset. To this end, we present CTISum, a new benchmark for CTI summarization task. Considering the importance of attack process, a novel fine-grained subtask of attack process summarization…

Prioritizing Modalities: Flexible Importance Scheduling in Federated Multimodal Learning

Prioritizing Modalities: Flexible Importance Scheduling in Federated Multimodal Learning

arXiv:2408.06549v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) is a distributed machine learning approach that enables devices to collaboratively train models without sharing their local data, ensuring user privacy and scalability. However, applying FL to real-world data presents challenges, particularly as most existing FL research focuses on unimodal data. Multimodal Federated Learning (MFL) has emerged to address these challenges, leveraging modality-specific encoder models to process diverse datasets. Current MFL methods often uniformly allocate computational frequencies across all modalities, which is inefficient for IoT devices with limited resources. In this paper, we propose FlexMod, a novel approach to enhance computational efficiency…

SparkRA: A Retrieval-Augmented Knowledge Service System Based on Spark Large Language Model

SparkRA: A Retrieval-Augmented Knowledge Service System Based on Spark Large Language Model

arXiv:2408.06574v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable achievements across various language tasks.To enhance the performance of LLMs in scientific literature services, we developed the scientific literature LLM (SciLit-LLM) through pre-training and supervised fine-tuning on scientific literature, building upon the iFLYTEK Spark LLM. Furthermore, we present a knowledge service system Spark Research Assistant (SparkRA) based on our SciLit-LLM. SparkRA is accessible online and provides three primary functions: literature investigation, paper reading, and academic writing. As of July 30, 2024, SparkRA has garnered over 50,000 registered users, with a total usage count exceeding 1.3 million. Source link…

Operator Learning Using Random Features: A Tool for Scientific Computing

Operator Learning Using Random Features: A Tool for Scientific Computing

[Submitted on 12 Aug 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled Operator Learning Using Random Features: A Tool for Scientific Computing, by Nicholas H. Nelsen and 1 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Supervised operator learning centers on the use of training data, in the form of input-output pairs, to estimate maps between infinite-dimensional spaces. It is emerging as a powerful tool to complement traditional scientific computing, which may often be framed in terms of operators mapping between spaces of functions. Building on the classical random features methodology for scalar regression, this paper introduces the function-valued random features method.…

S-SAM: SVD-based Fine-Tuning of Segment Anything Model for Medical Image Segmentation

S-SAM: SVD-based Fine-Tuning of Segment Anything Model for Medical Image Segmentation

arXiv:2408.06447v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Medical image segmentation has been traditionally approached by training or fine-tuning the entire model to cater to any new modality or dataset. However, this approach often requires tuning a large number of parameters during training. With the introduction of the Segment Anything Model (SAM) for prompted segmentation of natural images, many efforts have been made towards adapting it efficiently for medical imaging, thus reducing the training time and resources. However, these methods still require expert annotations for every image in the form of point prompts or bounding box prompts during training and inference, making it…

Social Debiasing for Fair Multi-modal LLMs

Social Debiasing for Fair Multi-modal LLMs

arXiv:2408.06569v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have advanced significantly, offering powerful vision-language understanding capabilities. However, these models often inherit severe social biases from their training datasets, leading to unfair predictions based on attributes like race and gender. This paper addresses the issue of social biases in MLLMs by i) Introducing a comprehensive Counterfactual dataset with Multiple Social Concepts (CMSC), which provides a more diverse and extensive training set compared to existing datasets. ii) Proposing an Anti-Stereotype Debiasing strategy (ASD). Our method works by revisiting the MLLM training process, rescaling the autoregressive loss function, and improving data…
