SIMPLE HIERARCHICAL PLANNING WITH DIFFUSION

Caglar Gulcehre

Diffusion-based generative methods have proven effective in modeling trajectories with offline datasets. However, they often face computational challenges and can falter in generalization, especially in capturing temporal abstractions for long- horizon tas ...

Discussion of ‘Experimental Evaluation of Algorithm-Assisted Human Decision-Making: Application to Pretrial Public Safety Assessment’, part 2

Mats Julius Stensrud, Aaron Leor Sarvet

Imai et al.(IJGHS) have conducted a timely experiment on evaluating a decision support algorithm. However, we are concerned by their choice of estimands which, even if they appear plausible at first, rely on notions and assumptions for which we cannot ever ...

Sediment continuity and augmentation measures

Giovanni De Cesare, Robin Schroff

Impaired sediment transport can have numerous adverse impacts on the eco-morphodynamics of the riverscape. If well designed, sediment augmentation measures present a promising mitigation approach at different scales. This chapter focuses on flume experim ...

Evaluation and digitalization: what are the key challenges for evaluation processes and evaluators?

Omar Ballester Gonzalez

Public policy evaluation has traditionally been conducted in a context constrained by legal, institutional and political red tape. The arrival of digitalisation adds a new layer to public policy evaluation processes. Assessing the quality of technologies, ...

RDS: FPGA Routing Delay Sensors for Effective Remote Power Analysis Attacks

Mirjana Stojilovic, Ognjen Glamocanin, David Spielmann

State-of-the-art sensors for measuring FPGA voltage fluctuations are time-to-digital converters (TDCs). They allow detecting voltage fluctuations in the order of a few nanoseconds. The key building component of a TDC is a delay line, typically implemented ...

DISCO: Distilling Counterfactuals with Large Language Models

Antoine Bosselut, Zeming Chen

Models trained with counterfactually augmented data learn representations of the causal structure of tasks, enabling robust generalization. However, high-quality counterfactual data is scarce for most tasks and not easily generated at scale. When crowdsour ...

Towards Novel Evaluation Methods for Social Dialog Systems

Ekaterina Svikhnushina

Language has shaped human evolution and led to the desire to endow machines with language abilities. Recent advancements in natural language processing enable us to achieve this breakthrough in human-machine interaction. However, introducing conversational ...

Serab: A Multi-Lingual Benchmark For Speech Emotion Recognition

Pierre Anton Beckmann

Recent developments in speech emotion recognition (SER) often leverage deep neural networks (DNNs). Comparing and benchmarking different DNN models can often be tedious due to the use of different datasets and evaluation protocols. To facilitate the proces ...

Efficient and Effective Multi-Modal Queries Through Heterogeneous Network Embedding

Karl Aberer, Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen, Thành Tâm Nguyên, Chi Thang Duong, Thanh Trung Huynh

The heterogeneity of today's Web sources requires information retrieval (IR) systems to handle multi-modal queries. Such queries define a user's information needs by different data modalities, such as keywords, hashtags, user profiles, and other media. Rec ...

Memory-Based Model Editing at Scale

Antoine Bosselut

Even the largest neural networks make errors, and once-correct predictions can become invalid as the world changes. Model editors make local updates to the behavior of base (pre-trained) models to inject updated knowledge or correct undesirable behaviors. ...

Ultrasonic Doppler flow velocity measurements as a co-indicator for the eco-morphological assessment in a residual flow reach

Giovanni De Cesare, Christian Mörtl, Robin Schroff

It is a complex task to evaluate the effects of a river rehabilitation measure on the riverscape’s habitat mosaic. This study investigated the medium term effects of a rehabilitation measure in a residual flow reach downstream of a hydroelectric dam. The r ...

Context effects on probability estimation

Wei-Hsiang Lin

Many decisions rely on how we evaluate potential outcomes and estimate their corresponding probabilities of occurrence. Outcome evaluation is subjective because it requires consulting internal preferences and is sensitive to context. In contrast, probabili ...

Replicated state machines without replicated execution

Kirill Nikitin

This paper introduces a new approach to reduce end-to-end costs in large-scale replicated systems built under a Byzantine fault model. Specifically, our approach transforms a given replicated state machine (RSM) to another RSM where nodes incur lower costs ...

BenchIoT: A Security Benchmark for the Internet of Things

Mathias Josef Payer

Attacks against IoT systems are increasing at an alarming pace. Many IoT systems are and will be built using low-cost micro-controllers (IoT-pCs). Different security mechanisms have been proposed for IoT-mu Cs with different trade-offs. To guarantee a real ...

Sequential Cascade Electrocatalytic Conversion of Carbon Dioxide to C-C Coupled Products

Sophia Haussener

Cascade catalytic processes perform multi-step chemical transformations without isolating the intermediates. Here, we demonstrate a sequential cascade pathway to convert CO2 to C2+ hydrocarbons and oxygenates in a two-step electrocatalytic process using CO ...

High-fidelity optical diffraction tomography of multiple scattering samples

Demetri Psaltis, Joowon Lim

We propose an iterative reconstruction scheme for optical diffraction tomography that exploits the split-step nonparaxial (SSNP) method as the forward model in a learning tomography scheme. Compared with the beam propagation method (BPM) previously used in ...

Refutation-based synthesis in SMT

Viktor Kuncak, Andrew Joseph Reynolds

We introduce the first program synthesis engine implemented inside an SMT solver. We present an approach that extracts solution functions from unsatisfiability proofs of the negated form of synthesis conjectures. We also discuss novel counterexample-guided ...
