Evaluating the visual quality of distorted images is a crucial task in the field of image compression, as artifacts may significantly impair the appeal and fidelity of images, therefore reducing the user experience. As assessing the visual quality of image ...
MapPool is a dataset of 75 million potential maps and textual captions. It has been derived from CommonPool, a dataset consisting of 12 billion text-image pairs from the Internet. The images have been encoded by a vision transformer and classified into map ...
Despite the large body of academic work on machine learning security, little is known about the occurrence of attacks on machine learning systems in the wild. In this paper, we report on a quantitative study with 139 industrial practitioners. We analyze at ...
Preserving privacy is a growing concern in our society where cameras are ubiquitous. In this work, we propose a trainable image acquisition method that removes the sensitive information in the optical domain before it reaches the image sensor. The method b ...
We investigate methods for manipulating classifier explanations while keeping the predictions unchanged. Our focus is on using a sparse attack, which seeks to alter only a minimal number of input features. We present an efficient and novel algorithm for co ...
We consider multi-agent networks that aim at solving, cooperatively and online, distributed optimization problems under communication constraints. We propose the ACTC (Adapt-Compress-Then-Combine) diffusion strategy, which leverages differential randomized ...
The shear stiffness of headed stud connector is a critical parameter for the calculation of deflection and inter-facial shear force for steel-concrete composite structure. Thus, this study presented a promising data-driven model auto-tuning Deep Forest (AT ...
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved great success in image classification and recognition compared to previous methods. However, recent works have reported that DNNs are very vulnerable to adversarial examples that are intentionally generated to misl ...
The hardware complexity of modern machines makes the design of adequate programming models crucial for jointly ensuring performance, portability, and productivity in high-performance computing (HPC). Sequential task-based programming models paired with adv ...
We present a quasilinear time algorithm to decide the word problem on a natural algebraic structures we call orthocomplemented bisemilattices, a subtheory of boolean algebra. We use as a base a variation of Hopcroft, Ullman and Aho algorithm for tree isomo ...
As the size and complexity of models and datasets grow, so does the need for communication-efficient variants of stochastic gradient descent that can be deployed to perform parallel model training. One popular communication-compression method for data-para ...
We propose a novel unsupervised deep-learning-based algorithm for dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reconstruction. Dynamic MRI requires rapid data acquisition for the study of moving organs such as the heart. We introduce a generalized version of t ...
