Integrating Query-aware Segmentation and Cross-Attention for Robust VQAWonjun Choi, Sangbeom Lee, Seungyeon Lee et al.
This paper introduces a method for VizWiz-VQA using LVLM with trainable cross-attention and LoRA finetuning. We train the model with the following conditions: 1) Training with original images. 2) Training with enhanced images using CLIPSeg to highlight or contrast the original image. 3) Training with integrating the output features of Vision Transformer (ViT) and CLIPSeg features of the original images. Then, we ensemble the results based on Levenshtein distance to enhance the prediction of the final answer. In the experiments, we demonstrate and analyze the proposed method's effectiveness.

Network Representation Learning for Biophysical Neural Network AnalysisYoungmok Ha, Yongjoo Kim, Hyun Jae Jang et al.
The analysis of biophysical neural networks (BNNs) has been a longstanding focus in computational neuroscience. A central yet unresolved challenge in BNN analysis lies in deciphering the correlations between neuronal and synaptic dynamics, their connectivity patterns, and learning process. To address this, we introduce a novel BNN analysis framework grounded in network representation learning (NRL), which leverages attention scores to uncover intricate correlations between network components and their features. Our framework integrates a new computational graph (CG)-based BNN representation, a bio-inspired graph attention network (BGAN) that enables multiscale correlation analysis across BNN representations, and an extensive BNN dataset. The CG-based representation captures key computational features, information flow, and structural relationships underlying neuronal and synaptic dynamics, while BGAN reflects the compositional structure of neurons, including dendrites, somas, and axons, as well as bidirectional information flows between BNN components. The dataset comprises publicly available models from ModelDB, reconstructed using the Python and standardized in NeuroML format, and is augmented with data derived from canonical neuron and synapse models. To our knowledge, this study is the first to apply an NRL-based approach to the full spectrum of BNNs and their analysis.
