PDF: Point Diffusion Implicit Function for Large-scale Scene Neural RepresentationYuhan Ding, Fukun Yin, Jiayuan Fan et al.
Recent advances in implicit neural representations have achieved impressive results by sampling and fusing individual points along sampling rays in the sampling space. However, due to the explosively growing sampling space, finely representing and synthesizing detailed textures remains a challenge for unbounded large-scale outdoor scenes. To alleviate the dilemma of using individual points to perceive the entire colossal space, we explore learning the surface distribution of the scene to provide structural priors and reduce the samplable space and propose a Point Diffusion implicit Function, PDF, for large-scale scene neural representation. The core of our method is a large-scale point cloud super-resolution diffusion module that enhances the sparse point cloud reconstructed from several training images into a dense point cloud as an explicit prior. Then in the rendering stage, only sampling points with prior points within the sampling radius are retained. That is, the sampling space is reduced from the unbounded space to the scene surface. Meanwhile, to fill in the background of the scene that cannot be provided by point clouds, the region sampling based on Mip-NeRF 360 is employed to model the background representation. Expensive experiments have demonstrated the effectiveness of our method for large-scale scene novel view synthesis, which outperforms relevant state-of-the-art baselines.

DeRisk: An Effective Deep Learning Framework for Credit Risk Prediction over Real-World Financial DataYancheng Liang, Jiajie Zhang, Hui Li et al.
Despite the tremendous advances achieved over the past years by deep learning techniques, the latest risk prediction models for industrial applications still rely on highly handtuned stage-wised statistical learning tools, such as gradient boosting and random forest methods. Different from images or languages, real-world financial data are high-dimensional, sparse, noisy and extremely imbalanced, which makes deep neural network models particularly challenging to train and fragile in practice. In this work, we propose DeRisk, an effective deep learning risk prediction framework for credit risk prediction on real-world financial data. DeRisk is the first deep risk prediction model that outperforms statistical learning approaches deployed in our company's production system. We also perform extensive ablation studies on our method to present the most critical factors for the empirical success of DeRisk.

MSG-BART: Multi-granularity Scene Graph-Enhanced Encoder-Decoder Language Model for Video-grounded Dialogue GenerationHongcheng Liu, Zhe Chen, Hui Li et al.
Generating dialogue grounded in videos requires a high level of understanding and reasoning about the visual scenes in the videos. However, existing large visual-language models are not effective due to their latent features and decoder-only structure, especially with respect to spatio-temporal relationship reasoning. In this paper, we propose a novel approach named MSG-BART, which enhances the integration of video information by incorporating a multi-granularity spatio-temporal scene graph into an encoder-decoder pre-trained language model. Specifically, we integrate the global and local scene graph into the encoder and decoder, respectively, to improve both overall perception and target reasoning capability. To further improve the information selection capability, we propose a multi-pointer network to facilitate selection between text and video. Extensive experiments are conducted on three video-grounded dialogue benchmarks, which show the significant superiority of the proposed MSG-BART compared to a range of state-of-the-art approaches.
