Towards Federated Foundation Models: Scalable Dataset Pipelines for Group-Structured Learning Zachary Charles

Neural Information Processing Systems

We introduce Dataset Grouper, a library to create large-scale group-structured (e.g., federated) datasets, enabling federated learning simulation at the scale of foundation models. This library facilitates the creation of group-structured versions of existing datasets based on user-specified partitions, and directly leads to a variety of useful heterogeneous datasets that can be plugged into existing software frameworks. Dataset Grouper offers three key advantages. First, it scales to settings where even a single group's dataset is too large to fit in memory. Second, it provides flexibility, both in choosing the base (non-partitioned) dataset and in defining partitions.


Segment Anything in 3D with NeRFs

Neural Information Processing Systems

We refer to the proposed solution as SA3D, for Segment Anything in 3D. It is only required to provide a manual segmentation prompt ( e.g., rough points) for the target object in a single view, which is used to generate its 2D mask in this view with SAM.


GV-Rep: A Large-Scale Dataset for Genetic Variant Representation Learning

Neural Information Processing Systems

The development of deep learning approaches for modeling these multifactorial effects of GVs is still in its nascent stages, primarily due to the lack of comprehensive datasets that capture the intricate relationships between GVs and their downstream effects on complex traits.







Bridging the Domain Gap: Self-Supervised 3D Scene Understanding with Foundation Models Zhimin Chen

Neural Information Processing Systems

Foundation models have achieved remarkable results in 2D and language tasks like image segmentation, object detection, and visual-language understanding. However, their potential to enrich 3D scene representation learning is largely untapped due to the existence of the domain gap. In this work, we propose an innovative methodology called Bridge3D to address this gap by pre-training 3D models using features, semantic masks, and captions sourced from foundation models. Specifically, our method employs semantic masks from foundation models to guide the masking and reconstruction process for the masked autoen-coder, enabling more focused attention on foreground representations.
