Customer-obsessed science

In most practical adaptive filtering problems, estimated filters are not arbitrary, but instead lie on a manifold that encapsulates characteristics of the problem at hand. Consequently, it is desirable to steer adaptation towards filters that lie on that manifold. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to learn the manifold of a set of impulse responses and subsequently employ that learned manifold

We explore zero-shot adaptation, where a general-domain model has access to customer or domain specific parallel data at inference time, but not during training. We build on the idea of Retrieval Augmented Translation (RAT) where top-k in-domain fuzzy matches are found for the source sentence, and target-language translations of those fuzzy-matched sentences are provided to the translation model at inference

Approximate K-Nearest Neighbor Search (AKNNS) has now become ubiquitous in modern applications, such as a fast search procedure with two-tower deep learning models. Graph-based methods for AKNNS in particular have received great attention due to their superior performance. These methods rely on greedy graph search to traverse the data points as embedding vectors in a database. Under this greedy search scheme

Query Rewriting (QR) plays a critical role in large-scale dialogue systems for reducing frictions. When there is an entity error, it imposes extra challenges for a dialogue system to produce satisfactory responses. In this work, we propose KG-ECO: Knowledge Graph enhanced Entity COrrection for query rewriting, an entity correction system with corrupt entity span detection and entity retrieval/re-ranking

Forecasts at different time granularities are required in practice for addressing various business problems starting from short-term operational to medium-term tactical and to long-term strategic planning. These forecasting problems are usually treated independently by learning different ML models which results in forecasts that are not consistent with the temporal aggregation structure, leading to inefficient
