As AI models grow larger, they become less insightful, not more. To ensure that they continue to learn, we need to reduce their inference time.
How do you match AI warnings about future events with what actually happens? A KDD test-of-time award recognizes a 2014 approach that modern systems still need.
In-context learning enables a model that can solve forecasting tasks with an arbitrary number of dimensions in a zero-shot manner.
The pandemic turbo-charged retail growth — teams of scientists at Amazon forged a path forward to handle the scale.

February 2, 202610 min readEvery NFL game generates millions of tracking data points from 22 RFID-equipped players. Seventy-five machine learning models running on AWS process that data in under a second, transforming football into a sport where every movement is measured, modeled, and instantly analyzed. -

KDD 2023 International Workshop on Multimodal Learning2023E-commerce platforms enable brands to connect with relevant online shoppers. While major brands are easily identifiable by shoppers, smaller and emerging brands often lean on advertising campaigns in e-commerce platforms to reach a wide audience. For such advertising campaigns, brands need to come up with a leading ad creative which may be shown together with their listed products. Designing such creatives

WINE 20232023Due to numerous applications in retail and (online) advertising the problem of assortment selection has been widely studied under many combinations of discrete choice models and feasibility constraints. In many situations, however, an assortment of products has to be constructed gradually and without accurate knowledge of all possible alternatives; in such cases, existing offline approaches become inapplicable

ICCV 20232023We present a new formulation for structured information extraction (SIE) from visually rich documents. We address the limitations of existing IOB tagging and graph-based formulations, which are either overly reliant on the correct ordering of input text or struggle with decoding a complex graph. Instead, motivated by anchor-based object detectors in computer vision, we represent an entity as an anchor word

IJCNLP-AACL 20232023Conventional text style transfer approaches focus on sentence-level style transfer without considering contextual information, and the style is described with attributes (e.g., formality). When applying style transfer in conversations such as task-oriented dialogues, existing approaches suffer from these limitations as context can play an important role and the style attributes are often difficult to define

IJCNLP-AACL 20232023Regulations introduced General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the EU or California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) in the US have included provisions on the right to be forgotten that mandates industry applications to remove data related to an individual from their systems. In several real world industry applications that use Machine Learning to build models on user data, such mandates require significant
