Align, Disambiguate and Walk: A Unified Approach for Measuring Semantic Similarity

To Exhibit is not to Loiter: A Multilingual, Sense-Disambiguated Wiktionary for Measuring Verb Similarity

A Large-Scale Multilingual Disambiguation of Glosses

Linking concepts and named entities to knowledge bases has become a crucial Natural Language Understanding task. In this respect, recent works have shown the key advantage of exploiting textual definitions in various Nat…

Walking Further: Semantic-aware Multimodal Gait Recognition Under Long-Range Conditions

Gait recognition is an emerging biometric technology that enables non-intrusive and hard-to-spoof human identification. However, most existing methods are confined to short-range, unimodal settings and fail to generalize…

CtrlVDiff: Controllable Video Generation via Unified Multimodal Video Diffusion

We tackle the dual challenges of video understanding and controllable video generation within a unified diffusion framework. Our key insights are two-fold: geometry-only cues (e.g., depth, edges) are insufficient: they s…

Quantifying Lexical Semantic Shift via Unbalanced Optimal Transport

Lexical semantic change detection aims to identify shifts in word meanings over time. While existing methods using embeddings from a diachronic corpus pair estimate the degree of change for target words, they offer limit…
