Automated Program Repair (APR) has advanced rapidly with Large Language Models (LLMs), but most existing methods remain computationally expensive, and focused on a small set of languages. Ruby, despite its widespread use in web development…
Unifying text detection and text recognition in an end-to-end training fashion has become a new trend for reading text in the wild, as these two tasks are highly relevant and complementary. In this paper, we investigate the problem of scene…
Given a regular expression $R$ and a string $Q$, the regular expression parsing problem is to determine if $Q$ matches $R$ and if so, determine how it matches, e.g., by a mapping of the characters of $Q$ to the characters in $R$. Regular…
In text classification, the problem of overfitting arises due to the high dimensionality, making regularization essential. Although classic regularizers provide sparsity, they fail to return highly accurate models. On the contrary,…
News archives are an invaluable primary source for placing current events in historical context. But current search engine tools do a poor job at uncovering broad themes and narratives across documents. We present Rookie: a practical…
The processor accelerators are effective because they are working not (completely) on principles of stored program computers. They use some kind of parallelism, and it is rather hard to program them effectively: a parallel architecture by…
Momentum-Aided Prompt Optimization (MAPO) enhances the efficiency and efficacy of prompt optimization for Large Language Models (LLMs). Building on ProTeGi, MAPO uses positive natural language "gradients" and a momentum-based extension to…
