Semantic communication is a novel communication paradigm which draws inspiration from human communication focusing on the delivery of the meaning of a message to the intended users. It has attracted significant interest recently due to its…
Text detection is frequently used in vision-based mobile robots when they need to interpret texts in their surroundings to perform a given task. For instance, delivery robots in multilingual cities need to be capable of doing multilingual…
Email communication between instructors and students is ubiquitous, and it could be valuable to explore ways of testing out how to make email messages more impactful. This paper explores the design space of using emails to get students to…
Expressing physics problems in the form of a mathematical model is one of the most important stages in the problem-solving process. Particularly in algebraic symbolization, understanding the meanings of signs and being able to manipulate…
This paper presents a psychologically-aware conversational agent designed to enhance both learning performance and emotional well-being in educational settings. The system combines Large Language Models (LLMs), a knowledge graph-enhanced…
Time-delay systems are an important class of dynamical systems which provide a solid mathematical framework to deal with many application domains of interest ranging from biology, chemical, electrical, and mechanical engineering, to…
Dialogue systems dealing with multi-domain tasks are highly required. How to record the state remains a key problem in a task-oriented dialogue system. Normally we use human-defined features as dialogue states and apply a state tracker to…
Deep learning enabled semantic communications have shown great potential to significantly improve transmission efficiency and alleviate spectrum scarcity, by effectively exchanging the semantics behind the data. Recently, the emergence of…
Subliminal learning describes a student language model inheriting a behavioral bias by fine-tuning on seemingly innocuous data generated by a biased teacher model. Prior work has begun to characterize this phenomenon but leaves open…
Semantic communications focus on prioritizing the understanding of the meaning behind transmitted data and ensuring the successful completion of tasks that motivate the exchange of information. However, when devices rely on different…
Neural reasoning accuracy improves when generating intermediate reasoning steps. However, the source of this improvement is yet unclear. Here, we investigate and factorize the benefit of generating intermediate steps for symbolic reasoning.…
According to the World Federation of the Deaf, more than two hundred sign languages exist. Therefore, it is challenging to understand deaf individuals, even proficient sign language users, resulting in a barrier between the deaf community…
Input multimodality combining speech and hand gestures has motivated numerous usability studies. Contrastingly, issues relating to the design and ergonomic evaluation of multimodal output messages combining speech with visual modalities…
Generative AI has transformed the economics of information production, making explanations, proofs, examples, and analyses available at very low cost. Yet the value of information still depends on whether downstream users can absorb and act…
Communication is a crucial social factor in the success of software projects, as positively or negatively perceived statements can influence how recipients feel and affect team collaboration through emotional contagion. Whether a developer…
Semantic communications have been utilized to execute numerous intelligent tasks by transmitting task-related semantic information instead of bits. In this article, we propose a semantic-aware speech-to-text transmission system for the…
We present our vision for a departure from the established way of architecting and assessing communication networks, by incorporating the semantics of information for communications and control in networked systems. We define semantics of…
During the transition from high school to on-campus college life, a student leaves home and starts facing enormous life changes, including meeting new people, more responsibilities, being away from family, and academic challenges. These…
While semantic communication succeeds in efficiently transmitting due to the strong capability to extract the essential semantic information, it is still far from the intelligent or human-like communications. In this paper, we introduce an…
Science communication forms the bridge between computer science researchers and their target audience. Researchers who can effectively draw attention to their research findings and communicate them comprehensibly not only help their target…
