2026Visual grounding aims to associate free-form textual queries with specific regions in an image. While recent Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated promising capabilities in this domain, they primarily excel at object-level grounding and often struggle with part-level grounding—an essential requirement for fine-grained tasks such as robotic manipulation. In this work, we introduce a

KDD 2026 Workshop on Two-sided Marketplace Optimization2026Optimizing online pricing strategy for Amazon Device dependent products is a uniquely challenging topic in dynamic pricing of two-sided marketplaces when balancing the supply side economics and demand responsiveness. To address this challenge, we propose a scalable framework that integrates a hierarchical segmentation model with a sequential learning layer for high-velocity event (HVE) adjustment, to simulate

ICTIR 20262026Effectively understanding and modeling the temporal aspects of user queries is crucial for Information Retrieval (IR) and Question Answering (QA), particularly in contexts that demand freshness, historical accuracy, or temporal reasoning. In this paper, we present a formal and comprehensive taxonomy for classifying natural language queries along four dimensions: (i) temporal understanding, (ii) reasoning

IMAGE 20262026Energy companies hold millions of legacy seismic files in SEG-Y format with inconsistent, fragmented metadata that prevents automated processing and AI integration. We present a multi-agent AI system that automates end-to-end metadata reconstruction for large-scale SEG-Y migration to MDIO v1.0, a modern self-describing seismic format. Our system addresses three coupled challenges: (1) seismic product type

AISTATS 20262026Causal discovery algorithms often perform poorly with limited samples. While integrating expert knowledge (including from LLMs) as constraints promises to improve performance, guarantees for existing methods require perfect predictions or uncertainty estimates, making them unreliable for practical use. We propose the Guess2Graph (G2G) framework, which uses expert guesses to guide the sequence of statistical
