IEEE ICIP 20232023Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have shown promising improvements in video coding efficiency when included in traditional block-based codecs as a loop filter. Unfortunately, these coding gains are often accompanied by significant increases in complexity, measured by the number of multiply-accumulate (MAC) operations, that make them intractable in practice. As a result, there is considerable interest

CVPR 2023 Workshop on Computer Vision in Sports2023The SoccerNet 2023 tracking challenge requires the detection and tracking of soccer players and the ball. In this technical report, we present our approach to tackle these tasks separately. For player tracking, we employ a state-of-the-art online multi-object tracker along with a contemporary object detector. To overcome the limitations of the online approach, we incorporate a post-processing stage that

ACL 20232023We present the MASSIVE dataset— Multilingual Amazon Slu resource package (SLURP) for Slot-filling, Intent classification, and Virtual assistant Evaluation. MASSIVE contains 1M realistic, parallel, labeled virtual assistant utterances spanning 51 languages, 18 domains, 60 intents, and 55 slots. MASSIVE was created by tasking professional translators to localize the English-only SLURP dataset into 50 typologically

ICML 2023 Workshop on Sampling and Optimization in Discrete Spaces2023Recent developments in natural language processing (NLP) have highlighted the need for substantial amounts of data for models to capture textual information accurately. This raises concerns regarding the computational resources and time required for training such models. This paper introduces SEmantics for data SAliency in Model performance Estimation (SeSaME). It is an efficient data sampling mechanism

IEEE 2023 Workshop on Applications of Signal Processing to Audio and Acoustics (WASPAA)2023Classical speech coding uses low-complexity postfilters with zero lookahead to enhance the quality of coded speech, but their effectiveness is limited by their simplicity. Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) can be much more effective, but require high complexity and model size, or added delay. We propose a DNN model that generates classical filter kernels on a per-frame basis with a model of just 300 K parameters
