Abstract:The questionable responses caused by knowledge hallucination may lead to LLMs' unstable ability in decision-making. However, it has never been investigated whether the LLMs' hallucination is possibly usable to generate negative reasoning for facilitating the detection of fake news. This study proposes a novel supervised self-reinforced reasoning rectification approach - SR$^3$ that yields both common reasonable reasoning and wrong understandings (negative reasoning) for news via LLMs reflection for semantic consistency learning. Upon that, we construct a negative reasoning-based news learning model called - \emph{NRFE}, which leverages positive or negative news-reasoning pairs for learning the semantic consistency between them. To avoid the impact of label-implicated reasoning, we deploy a student model - \emph{NRFE-D} that only takes news content as input to inspect the performance of our method by distilling the knowledge from \emph{NRFE}. The experimental results verified on three popular fake news datasets demonstrate the superiority of our method compared with three kinds of baselines including prompting on LLMs, fine-tuning on pre-trained SLMs, and other representative fake news detection methods.
Abstract:Typical legged locomotion controllers are designed or trained offline. This is in contrast to many animals, which are able to locomote at birth, and rapidly improve their locomotion skills with few real-world interactions. Such motor control is possible through oscillatory neural networks located in the spinal cord of vertebrates, known as Central Pattern Generators (CPGs). Models of the CPG have been widely used to generate locomotion skills in robotics, but can require extensive hand-tuning or offline optimization of inter-connected parameters with genetic algorithms. In this paper, we present a framework for the \textit{online} optimization of the CPG parameters through Bayesian Optimization. We show that our framework can rapidly optimize and adapt to varying velocity commands and changes in the terrain, for example to varying coefficients of friction, terrain slope angles, and added mass payloads placed on the robot. We study the effects of sensory feedback on the CPG, and find that both force feedback in the phase equations, as well as posture control (Virtual Model Control) are both beneficial for robot stability and energy efficiency. In hardware experiments on the Unitree Go1, we show rapid optimization (in under 3 minutes) and adaptation of energy-efficient gaits to varying target velocities in a variety of scenarios: varying coefficients of friction, added payloads up to 15 kg, and variable slopes up to 10 degrees.

Abstract:In this paper, we introduce GoodDrag, a novel approach to improve the stability and image quality of drag editing. Unlike existing methods that struggle with accumulated perturbations and often result in distortions, GoodDrag introduces an AlDD framework that alternates between drag and denoising operations within the diffusion process, effectively improving the fidelity of the result. We also propose an information-preserving motion supervision operation that maintains the original features of the starting point for precise manipulation and artifact reduction. In addition, we contribute to the benchmarking of drag editing by introducing a new dataset, Drag100, and developing dedicated quality assessment metrics, Dragging Accuracy Index and Gemini Score, utilizing Large Multimodal Models. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed GoodDrag compares favorably against the state-of-the-art approaches both qualitatively and quantitatively.
