Intelligent recommendation and reminder systems are the need of the fast-pacing life. Current intelligent systems such as Siri, Google Assistant, Microsoft Cortona, etc., have limited capability. For example, if you want to wake up at 6 am…
The deployment of autonomous agents in environments involving human interaction has increasingly raised security concerns. Consequently, understanding the circumstances behind an event becomes critical, requiring the development of…
Recommender systems are software applications that help users to find items of interest in situations of information overload. Current research often assumes a one-shot interaction paradigm, where the users' preferences are estimated based…
Recent studies showed that the dialogs between app developers and app users on app stores are important to increase user satisfaction and app's overall ratings. However, the large volume of reviews and the limitation of resources discourage…
Humans are increasingly interacting with machines through language, sometimes in contexts where the user may not know they are talking to a machine (like over the phone or a text chatbot). We aim to understand how system designers and…
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a paradigm characterized by a network of embedded sensors and services. These sensors are incorporated to collect various information, track physical conditions, e.g., waste bins' status, and exchange data…
In IoT solutions, it is usually desirable to collect data from a large number of distributed IoT sensors at a central node in the cloud for further processing. One of the main design challenges of such solutions is the high communication…
Recently, research on open domain dialogue systems have attracted extensive interests of academic and industrial researchers. The goal of an open domain dialogue system is to imitate humans in conversations. Previous works on single turn…
This paper aims to design robust Edge Intelligence using semantic communication for time-critical IoT applications. We systematically analyze the effect of image DCT coefficients on inference accuracy and propose the channel-agnostic…
Multi-agent collaborative perception (MCP) has recently attracted much attention. It includes three key processes: communication for sharing, collaboration for integration, and reconstruction for different downstream tasks. Existing methods…
Click-Through Rate prediction aims to predict the ratio of clicks to impressions of a specific link. This is a challenging task since (1) there are usually categorical features, and the inputs will be extremely high-dimensional if one-hot…
Despite the stringent requirements of a real-time system, the reliance of the Robot Operating System (ROS) on the loopback network interface imposes a considerable overhead on the transport of high bandwidth data, while the nodelet package,…
Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) is an emerging technology that integrates wireless sensing and communication into a single system, transforming many applications, including cooperative mobile robotics. However, in scenarios…
Stack Overflow is one of the most popular Programming Community-based Question Answering (PCQA) websites that has attracted more and more users in recent years. When users raise or inquire questions in Stack Overflow, providing related…
Conversational agents are usually designed for closed-world environments. Unfortunately, users can behave unexpectedly. Based on the open-world environment, we often encounter the situation that the training and test data are sampled from…
Ultra-reliable and low-latency communications (URLLC) are considered as one of three new application scenarios in the fifth generation cellular networks. In this work, we aim to reduce the user experienced delay through prediction and…
The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has enabled large-scale AI applications to land in the market and practice. However, while AI technology has brought many conveniences to people in the productization process,…
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems have been widely used in various of application scenarios. Designing an OCR system is still a challenging task. In previous work, we proposed a practical ultra lightweight OCR system (PP-OCR) to…
We explain the methodology we developed for improving the interactions accomplished by an embedded conversational agent, drawing from Conversation Analytic sequential and multimodal analysis. The use case is a Pepper robot that is expected…
Recent advances in the integration of vehicular sensor network (VSN) technology, and crowd sensing leveraging pervasive sensors called onboard units (OBUs), like smartphones and radio frequency IDentifications to provide sensing services,…
