In this paper, we investigate the conversion of a Twitter corpus into geo-referenced raster cells holding the probability of the associated geographical areas of being flooded. We describe a baseline approach that combines a density ratio function, a...
We took part in the YouTube-8M Video Understanding Challenge hosted on Kaggle, and achieved the 10th place within less than one month's time. In this paper, we present an extensive analysis and solution to the underlying machine-learning problem base...

Jun 16, 2023 · Hello, You can now get verified on forum. The way it's gonna work is that you can send me a PM with a verification picture. The picture has to contain you and forum name on piece of paper …
To achieve lightweight object detectors for deployment on the edge devices, an effective model compression pipeline is proposed in this paper. The compression pipeline consists of automatic channel pruning for the backbone, fixed channel deletion for...
The given paper emphasizes the importance of the Railway Silk Road for promoting Georgia's economic growth and development. The article notes that economic integration in the region increases cargo turnover in Central Asia and the Caucasus, thus boos...
In this paper I describe the design of an introductory course in Human-Robot Interaction. This project-driven course is designed to introduce undergraduate and graduate engineering students, especially those enrolled in Computer Science, Mechanical E...
Synchronous programming is a paradigm of choice for the design of safety-critical reactive systems. Runtime enforcement is a technique to ensure that the output of a black-box system satisfies some desired properties. This paper deals with the proble...
Despite recent evidence that Microsoft Academic is an extensive source of citation counts for journal articles, it is not known if the same is true for academic books. This paper fills this gap by comparing citations to 16,463 books from 2013-2016 in...
This paper investigates the architectural features and performance potential of the Apple Silicon M-Series SoCs (M1, M2, M3, and M4) for HPC. We provide a detailed review of the CPU and GPU designs, the unified memory architecture, and coprocessors s...
Optimization decomposition methods are a fundamental tool to develop distributed solution algorithms for large scale optimization problems arising in fields such as machine learning and optimal control. In this paper, we present an algebraic framewor...
The UEFA Champions League is the major European club football competition, however, most national champions have to play qualification matches to receive a slot in the group stage of the tournament. The paper evaluates the impact of the only reform i...
A paper published in a leading journal of management science has recently analysed the mechanism used for the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 draw. Since the authors have not been familiar with the related sports analytics literature, this note att...
The paper investigates the qualification for the UEFA Champions League, the most prestigious club competition in European football with respect to the theoretical property of strategy-proofness. We find that in three seasons (2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-1...
Evans developed a classical unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism on the background of a spacetime obeying a Riemann-Cartan geometry. In an accompanying paper I, we analyzed this theory and summarized it in nine equations. We now...
This paper characterizes the actual science performance of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), as determined from the six month commissioning period. We summarize the performance of the spacecraft, telescope, science instruments, and ground system...
The Segment Anything model (SAM) has shown a generalized ability to group image pixels into patches, but applying it to semantic-aware segmentation still faces major challenges. This paper presents SAM-CP, a simple approach that establishes two types...
In this paper, we study genuine equivariant factorization homology and its interaction with equivariant Thom spectra, which we construct using the language of parametrized higher category theory. We describe the genuine equivariant factorization homo...
This paper proposes a perception and path planning pipeline for autonomous racing in an unknown bounded course. The pipeline was initially created for the 2021 evGrandPrix autonomous division and was further improved for the 2022 event, both of which...
This paper discusses efficient parallel algorithms for obtaining strong lower bounds and exact solutions for large instances of the Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP). Our parallel architecture is comprised of both multi-core processors and Compute U...
