September 19, 2024“Agentic workflows” that use multiple, fine-tuned smaller LLMs — rather than one large one — can improve efficiency.
-
September 16, 2024A position paper presented at ACL proposes a framework for more-accurate human evaluation of LLMs.
-
September 10, 2024Automated reasoning and optimizations specific to CPU microarchitectures improve both performance and assurance of correct implementation.

ECIR 20242024E-commerce customers frequently seek detailed product information for purchase decisions, commonly contacting sellers directly with extended queries. This manual response requirement imposes additional costs and disrupts buyer’s shopping experience with response time fluctuations ranging from hours to days. We seek to automate buyer inquiries to sellers in a leading e-commerce store using a domain-specific

Conference on Natural Language Processing (NATP) 20242024We present a supervised learning approach for automatic extraction of keyphrases from single documents. Our solution uses simple-to-compute statistical and positional features of candidate phrases and does not rely on any external knowledge base or on pre-trained language models or word embeddings. The ranking component of our proposed solution is a fairly lightweight ensemble model. Evaluation on benchmark

WACV 20242024Video quality can suffer from limited internet speed while being streamed by users. Compression artifacts start to appear when the bitrate decreases to match the available bandwidth. Existing algorithms either focus on removing the compression artifacts at the same video resolution, or on upscaling the video resolution but not removing the artifacts. Super resolution-only approaches will amplify the artifacts

IEEE SaTML 20242024We revisit the problem of differentially private squared error linear regression. We observe that existing state- of-the-art methods are sensitive to the choice of hyperparameters — including the “clipping threshold” that cannot be set optimally in a data-independent way. We give a new algorithm for private linear regression based on gradient boosting. We show that our method consistently improves over

2024In the realm of spoken language understanding (SLU), numerous natural language understanding (NLU) methodologies have been adapted by supplying large language models (LLMs) with transcribed speech instead of conventional written text. In real-world scenarios, prior to input into an LLM, an automated speech recognition (ASR) system generates an output transcript hypothesis, where inherent errors can degrade
