An ensemble of models, weighted according to their reluctance to flag anomalies, outperforms its predecessors.
Unique end-of-arm tools with three-dimensional force sensors and innovative control algorithms enable robotic arms to “pick” items from and “stow” items in fabric storage pods.
In 2017, IEEE Internet Computing identified a single paper from its publication history that had best withstood the test of time: a 2003 paper called “Amazon.com Recommendations: Item-to-Item Collaborative Filtering”

2024Image to image matching has been well studied in the computer vision community. Previous studies mainly focus on training a deep metric learning model matching visual patterns between the query image and gallery images. In this study, we show that pure image-to-image matching suffers from false positives caused by matching to local visual patterns. To alleviate this issue, we propose to leverage recent

Information Retrieval (IR) practitioners often train separate ranking models for different domains (geo-graphic regions, languages, stores, websites,...) as it is believed that exclusively training on in-domain data yields the best performance when sufficient data is available. Despite their performance gains, training multiple models comes at a higher cost to train, maintain and update compared to having

Methods to evaluate Large Language Model (LLM) responses and detect inconsistencies, also known as hallucinations, with respect to the provided knowledge, are becoming increasingly important for LLM applications. Current metrics fall short in their ability to provide explainable decisions, systematically check all pieces of information in the response, and are often too computationally expensive to be used

IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters2024We consider a local planner that utilizes model predictive control to locally deviate from a prescribed global path in response to dynamic environments, taking into account the system dynamics. To ensure the consistency between the local and global paths, we introduce the concept of locally homotopic paths for paths with different origins and destinations. We then formulate a hard constraint to ensure that

2024We study the problem of differentially private (DP) fine-tuning of large pre-trained models — a recent privacy-preserving approach suitable for solving downstream tasks with sensitive data. Existing work has demonstrated that high accuracy is possible under strong privacy constraint, yet requires significant computational overhead or modifications to the network architecture. We propose differentially private
