We study the probabilistic modeling performed by Autoregressive Large Language Models (LLMs) through the angle of time directionality, addressing a question first raised in (Shannon, 1951). For large enough models, we empirically find a time asymmetry in t ...
We consider the classical problem of maximizing a monotone submodular function subject to a cardinality constraint, which, due to its numerous applications, has recently been studied in various computational models. We consider a clean multiplayer model th ...
Non-Newtonian fluids are present in most manufacturing industry processes. Computa-tional models used to describe the rheological behavior of such materials can be costly due to the non-linear behavior of the viscosity. This work presents a parametrized pr ...
The increasing availability of brain data within and outside the biomedical field, combined with the application of artificial intelligence (AI) to brain data analysis, poses a challenge for ethics and governance. We identify distinctive ethical implicatio ...
Information regarding occupants inside buildings has the potential to improve security, energy management, and caregiving. Typical sensing approaches for occupant localization rely on mobile devices and cameras. These systems compromise privacy. Occupant l ...
Media assets shared via social media can rapidly spread, even if they do not present a true representation of reality. The assets might have been manipulated with photo editing software, artificially created using deep learning techniques or used out of co ...
In this paper, we propose a learning algorithm that enables a model to quickly exploit commonalities among related tasks from an unseen task distribution, before quickly adapting to specific tasks from that same distribution. We investigate how learning wi ...
Objective Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding commonly requires intensive care unit (ICU) in cases of potentialhaemodynamiccompromise or likely urgent intervention. However, manypatientsadmitted to the ICU stop bleeding and do not require further intervention, ...
One of the numerous approaches that increases the interaction quality between two people is having a proper understanding of the other person's perspective. In this doctoral thesis, we aim to understand children's perspective taking behavior, create a pers ...
This paper describes the development of a simulation tool that allows to perform trade-offs of avionic architectures for future Active Debris Removal (ADR) space missions. ...
