2024We introduce Condition-Aware Self-Supervised Learning Representation (CASSLR), a generalist conditioning model broadly applicable to various speech-processing tasks. Compared to standard fine-tuning methods that optimize for downstream models, CA-SSLR integrates language and speaker embeddings from earlier layers, making the SSL model aware of the current language and speaker context. This approach reduces

2024Prompt-based learning has been demonstrated as a compelling paradigm contributing to large language models’ tremendous success (LLMs). Inspired by their success in language tasks, existing research has leveraged LLMs in embodied instruction following and task planning. In this work, we tackle the problem of training a robot to understand multimodal prompts, interleaving vision signals with text descriptions

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable performance on various natural language processing tasks, but training LLMs at scale is extremely resource-intensive, requiring substantial computational power, memory, and energy consumption. This has motivated research into efficient training methods, particularly during the pre-training phase. There are two main approaches to approximate full-rank

2024Online paging is a fundamental problem in the field of online algorithms, in which one maintains a cache of 𝑘 slots as requests for fetching pages arrive online. In the weighted variant of this problem, each page has its own fetching cost; a substantial line of work on this problem culminated in an (optimal) 𝑂(log 𝑘)-competitive randomized algorithm, due to Bansal, Buchbinder and Naor (FOCS’07). Existing

RecSys 2024 Workshop on Causality, Counterfactuals & Sequential Decision-Making (CONSEQUENCES)2024Modern e-commerce services frequently target customers with incentives or interventions to engage them in their products such as games, shopping, video streaming, etc. This customer engagement increases acquisition of more customers and retention of existing ones, leading to more business for the company while improving customer experience. Often, customers are either randomly targeted or targeted based
