Technology Mapping Using Multi-output Library Cells

Giovanni De Micheli, Alessandro Tempia Calvino

Technology mapping transforms a technology-independent representation into a technology-dependent one given a library of cells. Even if technology libraries contain multi-output cells, state-of-the-art techniques fully exploit single-output cells only. Mul ...

Slim: Explicit Slot-Intent Mapping With Bert For Joint Multi-Intent Detection And Slot Filling

Boi Faltings, Fei Mi, Fengyu Cai, Wanhao Zhou

Utterance-level intent detection and token-level slot filling are two key tasks for spoken language understanding (SLU) in task-oriented systems. Most existing approaches assume that only a single intent exists in an utterance. However, there are often mul ...

Better Patch Stitching for Parametric Surface Reconstruction

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Jan Bednarík, Zhantao Deng

Recently, parametric mappings have emerged as highly effective surface representations, yielding low reconstruction error. In particular, the latest works represent the target shape as an atlas of multiple mappings, which can closely encode object parts. A ...

A synchrotron X-ray imaging strategy to map large animal brains

Giorgio Margaritondo, Ying Chen

Mapping the large neural networks of animal and human brains is a fundamental but so far elusive task, because of the massive amount of data and the consequent prohibitively long image taking and processing times. We developed an effective strategy called ...

Underground Potential for Urban Sustainability: Mapping Resources and Their Interactions with the Deep City Method

Aurèle Parriaux, Philippe Thalmann, Michael Robert Doyle

In the process of urban growth, the underground is often only addressed once all surface alternatives have been exhausted. Experience shows that this can lead to unforeseen conflicts (e.g., subsidence, groundwater pollution) and to lost opportunities (e.g. ...
