Abstract:TL;DR Perform 3D object editing selectively by disentangling it from the background scene. Instruct-NeRF2NeRF (in2n) is a promising method that enables editing of 3D scenes composed of Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) using text prompts. However, it is challenging to perform geometrical modifications such as shrinking, scaling, or moving on both the background and object simultaneously. In this project, we enable geometrical changes of objects within the 3D scene by selectively editing the object after separating it from the scene. We perform object segmentation and background inpainting respectively, and demonstrate various examples of freely resizing or moving disentangled objects within the three-dimensional space.
Abstract:Despite recent progress in language models, generating constrained text for specific domains remains a challenge, particularly when utilizing black-box models that lack domain-specific knowledge. In this paper, we introduce ScoPE (Score-based Progressive Editor) generation, a novel approach for controlled text generation for black-box language models. We employ ScoPE to facilitate text generation in the target domain by integrating it with language models through a cascading approach. Trained to enhance the target domain score of the edited text, ScoPE progressively edits intermediate output discrete tokens to align with the target attributes throughout the auto-regressive generation process of the language model. This iterative process guides subsequent steps to produce desired output texts for the target domain. Our experimental results on diverse controlled generations demonstrate that ScoPE effectively facilitates controlled text generation for black-box language models in both in-domain and out-of-domain conditions, which is challenging for existing methods.
Abstract:In this paper, we investigate the Internet of Bio-Nano Things (IoBNT) which relates to networks formed by molecular communications. By providing a means of communication through the ubiquitously connected blood vessels (arteries, veins, and capillaries), molecular communication-based IoBNT enables a host of new eHealth applications. For example, an organ monitoring sensor can transfer internal body signals through the IoBNT for health monitoring applications. We empirically show that blood vessel channels introduce a new set of challenges for the design of molecular communication systems in comparison to free-space channels. We then propose cylindrical duct channel models and discuss the corresponding system designs conforming to the channel characteristics. Furthermore, based on prototype implementations, we confirm that molecular communication techniques can be utilized for composing the IoBNT. We believe that the promising results presented in this work, together with the rich research challenges that lie ahead, are strong indicators that IoBNT with molecular communications can drive novel applications for emerging eHealth systems.
