ISTD PhD Oral Defense presented by Li Xu – Towards Effective, Robust, and Continual Multi-modal Learning
In the ever-evolving field of artificial intelligence (AI), deep learning has emerged as a pivotal technique driving remarkable advancements across various domains. Among its many branches, multi-modal learning stands out as a particularly significant approach, which involves integrating and processing information from multiple modalities of data, such as visual content and language information, to enhance the capabilities of AI systems. The primary objective of multi-modal learning is to leverage the complementary information present in different modalities to achieve better performance than using any single modality alone, mimicking the way humans perceive and understand the world.

ISTD PhD Oral Defense presented by Rulin Chen – Modeling and Design of Assemblies with Discrete Equivalence Classes
An assembly comprises parts joined together to achieve a specific form or functionality. Compared to monolithic objects, assemblies have many benefits in terms of fabrication, transportation, and adaptability. Parts of assemblies are always geometrically simple to fabricate with digital techniques, can be efficiently packed for transportation, and offer adaptability through flexible replacement or modification. Hence, assemblies are widely used in our daily lives that most of our consumer products, industry machines, and architectural structures are assemblies. […]

ISTD PhD Oral Defense presented by Ms. Menglin Li – Leveraging Pre-trained Language Models for Social Geolocation
Social media has become an integral part of daily life, leading to an explosion of social data. Geographical information within social media is essential for applications such as location-based analysis, recommendations, and targeted advertising. However, such information is sparse, prompting the exploration of mining it from social media data. […]
