Design Approaches for Creating Person-Centered, Context Sensitive, and Sustainable Assistive Technology with the Global South

Klaus Benedikt Schönenberger, Mario Andres Chavarria Varon

The implementation of non-user-centered design is sometimes effective for traditionally mass-produced items; however, these methods do not take into account local needs, resources, and cultures, and the history of individual people and communities in low- ...

Pose Transformers (POTR): Human Motion Prediction with Non-Autoregressive Transformers

Jean-Marc Odobez, Michael Villamizar

We propose to leverage Transformer architectures for non-autoregressive human motion prediction. Our approach decodes elements in parallel from a query sequence, instead of conditioning on previous predictions such as in state-of-the-art RNN-based approach ...

node2coords: Graph Representation Learning with Wasserstein Barycenters

Pascal Frossard, Effrosyni Simou

In order to perform network analysis tasks, representations that capture the most relevant information in the graph structure are needed. However, existing methods learn representations that cannot be interpreted in a straightforward way and that are relat ...

War of Words: The Competitive Dynamics of Legislative Processes

Patrick Thiran, Matthias Grossglauser, Victor Kristof

A body of law is an example of a dynamic corpus of text documents that are jointly maintained by a group of editors who compete and collaborate in complex constellations. Our goal is to develop predictive models for this process, thereby shedding light on ...
