CP 20262025In professional sports, a team has clinched the playoffs if they are guaranteed a postseason spot, regardless of the outcomes of any remaining games. As the season progresses, sports fans and other stakeholders are interested in precisely when, and under what conditions, their team will clinch the playoffs. In this paper, we investigate playoff clinching in the context of the National Hockey League (NHL

ICCV 2025 Workshop on Computer Vision Systems for Document Analysis and Recognition2025Vision-Language (VL) models have garnered considerable research interest; however, they still face challenges in effectively handling text within images. To address this limitation, researchers have developed two approaches. The first method involves utilizing external Optical Character Recognition (OCR) tools to extract textual information from images and prepend it to the textual inputs. The second strategy

WSC 20252025For large-scale retail businesses such as Amazon and Walmart, simulation is critical for forecasting inventory, planning, and decision-making. Traditional digital-twin simulators, which are powered by complex optimization algorithms, are high-fidelity but can be computationally expensive and difficult to experiment with. We propose a hybrid simulator called SEmulate that integrates machine learning and

ACM SIGOPS 2025 Workshop on Hot Topics in Operating Systems2025A metastable failure is a self-sustaining congestive collapse in which a system degrades in response to a transient stressor (e.g., a load surge) but fails to recover after the stressor is removed. These rare but potentially catastrophic events are notoriously hard to diagnose and mitigate, sometimes causing prolonged outages affecting millions of users. Ideally, we would discover susceptibility to metastable

2025Recent advancements in speech encoders have drawn attention due to their integration with Large Language Models for various speech tasks. While most research has focused on either causal or full-context speech encoders, there’s limited exploration to effectively handle both streaming and non-streaming applications, while achieving state-of-the-art performance. We introduce DuRep, a Dual-mode Speech Representation
