E-Scan: Consuming Contextual Data with Model Plugins

Extracting value and insights from increasingly heterogeneous data sources involves multiple systems combining and consuming the data. With multi-modal and context-rich data such as strings, text, videos, or images, the problem of standardizing the data mo ...

Dynamic Personalized Ranking

Jérémie Rappaz

Personalized ranking methods are at the core of many systems that learn to produce recommendations from user feedbacks. Their primary objective is to identify relevant items from very large vocabularies and to assist users in discovering new content. These ...

Positive and Negative Critiquing for VAE-based Recommenders

Boi Faltings, Diego Matteo Antognini

Providing explanations for recommended items allows users to refine the recommendations by critiquing parts of the explanations. As a result of revisiting critiquing from the perspective of multimodal generative models, recent work has proposed M&Ms-VAE, w ...

Predictive Analysis of Errors During Robot-Mediated Gamified Training

Pierre Dillenbourg, Arzu Güneysu Özgür, Nevena Dresevic, Nihal Ezgi Yücetürk, Marija Katanic

This paper presents our approach to predicting future error-related events in a robot-mediated gamified phys- ical training activity for stroke patients. The ability to predict future error under such conditions suggests the existence of distinguishable fe ...

A data-driven perspective on the colours of metal-organic frameworks

Berend Smit, Luc Patiny, Seyedmohamad Moosavi, Kevin Maik Jablonka, Mehrdad Asgari, Christopher Patrick Ireland

Colour is at the core of chemistry and has been fascinating humans since ancient times. It is also a key descriptor of optoelectronic properties of materials and is often used to assess the success of a synthesis. However, predicting the colour of a materi ...

Model-informed machine learning for multi-component T2 relaxometry

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez, Elda Fischi Gomez, Gian Franco Piredda, Thomas Yu, Cristina Granziera, Muhamed Barakovic

Recovering the distribution from multi-echo magnetic resonance (MR) signals is challenging but has high potential as it provides biomarkers characterizing the tissue micro-structure, such as the myelin water fraction (MWF). In this work, we propose to comb ...

The use of texture-based radiomics CT analysis to predict outcomes in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer treated with stereotactic ablative radiotherapy

Adrien Raphaël Depeursinge, Pierre Starkov

Objective: Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is being increasingly used as a non-invasive treatment for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A non-invasive method to estimate treatment outcomes in these patients would be valuable, especi ...

Synchrotron MicroCT Reveals the Potential of the Dual Contrast Technique for Quantitative Assessment of Human Articular Cartilage Composition

Goran Lovric

Dual contrast micro computed tomography (CT) shows potential for detecting articular cartilage degeneration. However, the performance of conventional CT systems is limited by beam hardening, low image resolution (full-body CT), and long acquisition times ( ...

Scaling Functional Synthesis and Repair

Emmanouil Koukoutos

Program synthesis was first proposed a few decades ago, but in the last decade it has gained increased momentum in the research community. The increasing complexity of software has dictated the urgent need for improved supporting tools that verify the soft ...

Towards Scalable Personalization

Rhicheek Patra

The ever-growing amount of online information calls for Personalization. Among the various personalization systems, recommenders have become increasingly popular in recent years. Recommenders typically use collaborative filtering to suggest the most releva ...
