Embedding image features into a binary Hamming space can improve both the speed and accuracy of large-scale query-by-example image retrieval systems. Supervised hashing aims to map the original features to compact binary codes in a manner…
This work introduces Hybrid Sparse Attention (HySparse), a new architecture that interleaves each full attention layer with several sparse attention layers. While conceptually simple, HySparse strategically derives each sparse layer's token…
A hash table is said to be open-addressed (or non-obliviously open-addressed) if it stores elements (and free slots) in an array with no additional metadata. Intuitively, open-addressed hash tables must incur a space-time tradeoff: The…
Distributed hash table (DHT) is the foundation of many widely used storage systems, for its prominent features of high scalability and load balancing. Recently, DHT-based systems have been deployed for the Internet-of-Things (IoT)…
