Nowadays, eye tracking is the most used technology to detect areas of interest. This kind of technology requires specialized equipment recording user's eyes. In this paper, we propose SneakPeek, a different approach to detect areas of…
Heterogeneous information networks (HINs) are widely applied to recommendation systems due to their capability of modeling various auxiliary information with meta-paths. However, existing HIN-based recommendation models usually fuse the…
Deriving insights from high-dimensional data is one of the core problems in data mining. The difficulty mainly stems from the fact that there are exponentially many variable combinations to potentially consider, and there are infinitely…
With the rapid development of mobile Internet and big data, a huge amount of data is generated in the network, but the data that users are really interested in a very small portion. To extract the information that users are interested in…
We propose a novel task, hierarchical instance tracking, which entails tracking all instances of predefined categories of objects and parts, while maintaining their hierarchical relationships. We introduce the first benchmark dataset…
Internet data has surfaced as a primary source for investigation of different aspects of human behavior. A crucial step in such studies is finding a suitable cohort (i.e., a set of users) that shares a common trait of interest to…
This article attempts answering the following problematic: How to model and classify energy consumption profiles over a large distributed territory to optimize the management of buildings' consumption? Doing case-by-case in depth auditing…
This paper presents Klout Topics, a lightweight ontology to describe social media users' topics of interest and expertise. Klout Topics is designed to: be human-readable and consumer-friendly; cover multiple domains of knowledge in depth;…
Social networking services (SNS) have become integral to modern life to create and maintain meaningful relationships. Nevertheless, their historic growth of features has led to labyrinthine user interfaces (UIs) that often result in…
Visualization recommendation work has focused solely on scoring visualizations based on the underlying dataset and not the actual user and their past visualization feedback. These systems recommend the same visualizations for every user,…
Giving user a simple and well organized web search result has been a topic of active information Retrieval (IR) research. Irrespective of how small or ambiguous a query is, a user always wants the desired result on the first display of an…
The Personalization of information has taken recommender systems at a very high level. With personalization these systems can generate user specific recommendations accurately and efficiently. User profiling helps personalization, where…
We introduce the novel task of answering entity-seeking recommendation questions using a collection of reviews that describe candidate answer entities. We harvest a QA dataset that contains 47,124 paragraph-sized real user questions from…
We are interested in aligning how people think about objects and what machines perceive, meaning by this the fact that object recognition, as performed by a machine, should follow a process which resembles that followed by humans when…
Some of the main ranking features of today's search engines reflect result popularity and are based on ranking models, such as PageRank, implicit feedback aggregation, and more. While such features yield satisfactory results for a wide…
The main purpose of this study was to investigate the nature of preferences and their relation to the objective measures in simple direct manipulation tasks involving both the cognitive process as well as the visually guided pointing…
Artificial Intelligence is being employed by humans to collaboratively solve complicated tasks for search and rescue, manufacturing, etc. Efficient teamwork can be achieved by understanding user preferences and recommending different…
Designing user interfaces that align with user preferences is a time-consuming process, which requires iterative cycles of prototyping, user testing, and refinement. Recent advancements in LLM-based UI generation have enabled efficient UI…
Document structure is critical for efficient information consumption. However, it is challenging to encode it efficiently into the modern Transformer architecture. In this work, we present HIBRIDS, which injects Hierarchical Biases foR…
