• Abstract: Stance detection seeks to identify the viewpoints of individuals either in favor or against a given target or a controversial topic. Current advanced neural models for stance detection typically employ fully parametric softmax classifiers. However, these methods suffer from several limitations, including lack of explainability, insensitivity to the latent data structure, and unimodality, which greatly restrict their performance and applications. To address these challenges, we present a novel collaborative stance detection framework called (CoSD) which leverages contrastive heterogeneous topic graph learning to learn topic-aware semantics and collaborative signals among texts, topics, and stance labels for enhancing stance detection. During training, we construct a heterogeneous graph to structurally organize texts and stances through implicit topics via employing latent Dirichlet allocation. We then perform contrastive graph learning to learn heterogeneous node representations, aggregating informative multi-hop collaborative signals via an elaborate Collaboration Propagation Aggregation (CPA) module. During inference, we introduce a hybrid similarity scoring module to enable the comprehensive incorporation of topic-aware semantics and collaborative signals for stance detection. Extensive experiments on two benchmark datasets demonstrate the state-of-the-art detection performance of CoSD, verifying the effectiveness and explainability of our collaborative framework.

  CoGCL aims to enhance graph contrastive learning by constructing contrastive views with stronger collaborative information via discrete codes. We introduce a multi-level vector quantizer in an end-to-end manner to quantize user and item representations into discrete codes. For neighborhood structure, we propose virtual neighbor augmentation by treating discrete codes as virtual neighbors. Regarding semantic relevance, we identify similar users/items based on shared discrete codes and interaction targets to generate the semantically relevant view.

  We tackle the challenging problem of human-object interaction (HOI) detection. Existing methods either recognize the interaction of each human-object pair in isolation or perform joint inference based on complex appearance-based features. In this paper, we leverage an abstract spatial-semantic representation to describe each human-object pair and aggregate the contextual information of the scene via a dual relation graph.

  We consider the problem of Human-Object Interaction (HOI) Detection, which aims to locate and recognize HOI instances in the form of human, action, object> in images. We argue that multi-level consistencies among objects, actions and interactions are strong cues for generating semantic representations of rare or previously unseen HOIs. Our model takes visual features of candidate human-object pairs and word embeddings of HOI labels as inputs, maps them into visual-semantic joint embedding space and obtains detection results by measuring their similarities.
