FinVolution Researcher Showcases Paper at IJCAI

IJCAI is renowned for its stringent paper evaluation process. This year, FinVolution's Senior Data Scientist, Shengjian Wu, as the first author, had his paper titled "OD-DETR: Online Distillation for Stabilizing Training of Detection Transformer" accepted for presentation at IJCAI. Co-authored with Shanghai Key Laboratory of Multidimensional Information Processing at East China Normal University, the work revolutionizes the DETR model, traditionally confined to academia, by optimizing it for real-world business needs. The approach enhances detection efficiency and accuracy while dramatically cutting model training costs.
