A dataset for detecting online hate speech from YouTube and Reddit comments.
We consider a framework involving behavioral economics and machine learning. Rationally inattentive Bayesian agents make decisions based on their posterior distribution, utility function and information acquisition cost Renyi divergence which generalizes Shannon mutual information). By observing these decisions, how ca…
Understanding and predicting the popularity of online items is an important open problem in social media analysis. Considerable progress has been made recently in data-driven predictions, and in linking popularity to external promotions. However, the existing methods typically focus on a single source of external influ…
Deep reinforcement learning methods traditionally struggle with tasks where environment rewards are particularly sparse. One successful method of guiding exploration in these domains is to imitate trajectories provided by a human demonstrator. However, these demonstrations are typically collected under artificial condi…
Proposes a deep learning model for timely and accurate recommendations.
Industrial recommender systems deal with extremely large action spaces -- many millions of items to recommend. Moreover, they need to serve billions of users, who are unique at any point in time, making a complex user state space. Luckily, huge quantities of logged implicit feedback (e.g., user clicks, dwell time) are …
VoxCeleb 2019 challenge assesses speaker recognition in uncontrolled settings.
We present a solution to "Google Cloud and YouTube-8M Video Understanding Challenge" that ranked 5th place. The proposed model is an ensemble of three model families, two frame level and one video level. The training was performed on augmented dataset, with cross validation.
FSD50K provides an open dataset of over 51k audio clips for sound event recognition.
Recent years have witnessed a significant increase in the online sharing of medical information, with videos representing a large fraction of such online sources. Previous studies have however shown that more than half of the health-related videos on platforms such as YouTube contain misleading information and biases. …
The paper solves IRL for Bayesian stopping time problems.
Understanding temporal dynamics has proved to be highly valuable for accurate recommendation. Sequential recommenders have been successful in modeling the dynamics of users and items over time. However, while different model architectures excel at capturing various temporal ranges or dynamics, distinct application cont…
A new method improves recommendation accuracy by learning from multiple networks and time-dependent user preferences.
The Clifford group for 2 qubits is divided into 20 orbits, each with 4608 matrices.
Elastic-InfoGAN learns object identity in class-imbalanced data.
Conventional sequential learning methods such as Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) focus on interactions between consecutive inputs, i.e. first-order Markovian dependency. However, most of sequential data, as seen with videos, have complex temporal dependencies that imply variable-length semantic flows and their composi…

Aff-Wild database expands facial expression recognition to real-world conditions.
In this paper we define a small variation of the Taylor method and a formula for the global error of this new numerical method that allows us to keep track of the round-off error and does not require previous knowledge of the exact solution. As an application we provide a rigorous proof of the construction/existence of…
Smartphones have become the ultimate 'personal' computer, yet despite this, general-purpose data-mining and knowledge discovery tools for mobile devices are surprisingly rare.
