Click-Through Rate (CTR) prediction holds paramount significance in online advertising and recommendation scenarios. Despite the proliferation of recent CTR prediction models, the improvements in performance have remained limited, as evidenced by ope...
Despite of the recent success of neural networks for human pose estimation, current approaches are limited to pose estimation of a single person and cannot handle humans in groups or crowds. In this work, we propose a method that estimates the poses...
The 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations model essential fluid phenomena, including turbulence and aerodynamics, but are challenging to solve due to nonlinearity and limited solution regularity. Despite extensive research, the full mathematical...
This paper reports on patterns exhibiting self-replication with spontaneous, inheritable mutations and exponential genetic drift in Neural Cellular Automata. Despite the models not being explicitly trained for mutation or inheritability, the descenda...
Selfie taking is a popular social pastime, and is an important part of socialising online. This activity is popular with young people but is also becoming more prevalent with older generations. Despite this, there are a number of accessibility issues...
Despite the promising results achieved, state-of-the-art interactive reinforcement learning schemes rely on passively receiving supervision signals from advisor experts, in the form of either continuous monitoring or pre-defined rules, which inevitab...
#[The Last Flight of 5N-BFN](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ek9zSJYXEAIOo_2.jpg) Nigeria is a vast and diverse country, home to over 100 million people belonging to many different faiths, ethnicities, a...
Commit messages are crucial to software development, allowing developers to track changes and collaborate effectively. Despite their utility, most commit messages lack important information since writing high-quality commit messages is tedious and ti...
Double ionization (DI) is a fundamental process that despite its apparent simplicity provides rich opportunities for probing and controlling the electronic motion. Even for the simplest multielectron atom, helium, new DI mechanisms are still being fo...
Manual travel pattern inference from visa page stamps is a time consuming activity and constitutes an important bottleneck in the efficiency of traveler inspection at border crossings. Despite efforts to digitize and record the border crossing inform...
I hear a lot about "overdoing" despite there being no real consensus on what actually constitutes overdoing it, mostly seeming like a very elusive and subjective thing. My question however, is for tho...
Personalization despite being an effective solution to the problem information overload remains tricky on account of multiple dimensions to consider. Furthermore, the challenge of avoiding overdoing personalization involves estimation of a user's pre...
The Chern insulator displays a quantum Hall effect with no net magnetic field. Proposed by Haldane over 20 years ago, it laid the foundation for the fields of topological order, unconventional quantum Hall effects, and topological insulators. Despite...
Vision-language models (VLMs) are typically composed of a vision encoder, e.g. CLIP, and a language model (LM) that interprets the encoded features to solve downstream tasks. Despite remarkable progress, VLMs are subject to several shortcomings due t...
The increasing rate of crime, attacks by thieves, intruders and vandals, despite all forms of security gadgets and locks still need the attention of researchers to find a permanent solution to the well being of lives and properties of individuals. To...
Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) is the most common bacterial sexually transmitted infection (STI) in the United States and is major cause of infertility, pelvic inflammatory disease, and ectopic pregnancy among women. Despite decades of screening women fo...
In soccer games, the goalkeeper's performance is an important factor to the success of the whole team. Despite the goalkeeper's importance, little attention has been paid to their performance in events and tracking data. Here, we developed a model to...
yes, i know i should've started earlier, should've submitted earlier, etc. however, despite all past events, i still ended up submitting at around 11:56 pm on the day of. is that actually taken into c...
