Using Cloud Functions as Accelerator for Elastic Data Analytics

Anastasia Ailamaki, Haoqiong Bian, Tiannan Sha

Cloud function (CF) services, such as AWS Lambda, have been applied as the new computing infrastructure in implementing analytical query engines. For bursty and sparse workloads, CF-based query engine is more elastic than the traditional query engines runn ...

Circular economy digital market solutions for reuse in the European construction sector

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Martin Fröhlich, Maria Sivers

Focusing on the cross-matching supply and demand for reused building components and related services, the paper analyses existing Digital Reuse Market Solutions (DRMS) in the European construction sector. A collection of 746 DRMS is built from major online ...

QAIR: Practical Query-efficient Black-Box Attacks for Image Retrieval

Shaokai Ye, Yuan He, Hang Su, Jinfeng Li

We study the query-based attack against image retrieval to evaluate its robustness against adversarial examples under the black-box setting, where the adversary only has query access to the top-1 ranked unlabeled images from the database. Compared with que ...

Safe non-smooth black-box optimization with application to policy search

Maryam Kamgarpour, Andreas Krause, Ilnura Usmanova

For safety-critical black-box optimization tasks, observations of the constraints and the objective are often noisy and available only for the feasible points. We propose an approach based on log barriers to find a local solution of a non-convex non-smooth ...

On the Relationship between Self-Attention and Convolutional Layers

Martin Jaggi, Andreas Loukas, Jean-Baptiste Francis Marie Juliette Cordonnier

Recent trends of incorporating attention mechanisms in vision have led re- searchers to reconsider the supremacy of convolutional layers as a primary build- ing block. Beyond helping CNNs to handle long-range dependencies, Ramachandran et al. (2019) showed ...

Learning Representations of Source Code from Structure and Context

Large codebases are routinely indexed by standard Information Retrieval systems, starting from the assumption that code written by humans shows similar statistical properties to written text [Hindle et al., 2012]. While those IR systems are still relativel ...

Multimodal person recognition in audio-visual streams

Do Hoang Nam Le

Multimedia databases are growing rapidly in size in the digital age. To increase the value of these data and to enhance the user experience, there is a need to make these videos searchable through automatic indexing. Because people appearing and talking in ...

Language Independent Query by Example Spoken Term Detection

Dhananjay Ram

Language independent query-by-example spoken term detection (QbE-STD) is the problem of retrieving audio documents from an archive, which contain a spoken query provided by a user. This is usually casted as a hypothesis testing and pattern matching problem ...

A Comparison of Greedy and Global Searches for Measurement-System Design in Bridge Load Testing

Ian Smith, Numa Joy Bertola

Due to conservative design models and safe construction practices, infrastructure often has significant yet-unknown reserve capacity that greatly exceeds code requirements. Reserve-capacity assessments lead to better asset-management decisions through eith ...

An Improved Analysis of Local Search for Max-Sum Diversification

Friedrich Eisenbrand, Rico Zenklusen, Alfonso Bolívar Cevallos Manzano

We present new techniques to analyze natural local search algorithms for several variants of the max-sum diversification problem which, in its most basic form, is as follows: given an n-point set X subset of R-d and an integer k, select k points in X so th ...
