Egocentric action anticipation aims to predict the future actions the camera wearer will perform from the observation of the past. While predictions about the future should be available before the predicted events take place, most…
In this paper, we introduce PredBench, a benchmark tailored for the holistic evaluation of spatio-temporal prediction networks. Despite significant progress in this field, there remains a lack of a standardized framework for a detailed and…
Inferring the quality of streaming video applications is important for Internet service providers, but the fact that most video streams are encrypted makes it difficult to do so. We develop models that infer quality metrics (\ie, startup…
We introduce a streaming framework for analyzing stochastic approximation/optimization problems. This streaming framework is analogous to solving optimization problems using time-varying mini-batches that arrive sequentially. We provide…
Real-time, continuous understanding of visual signals is essential for real-world interactive AI applications, and poses a fundamental system-level challenge. Existing research on streaming video understanding, however, typically focuses on…
The significance of estimating video watch time has been highlighted by the rising importance of (short) video recommendation, which has become a core product of mainstream social media platforms. Modeling video watch time, however, has…
Recommender systems play an essential role in music streaming services, prominently in the form of personalized playlists. Exploring the user interactions within these listening sessions can be beneficial to understanding the user…
This paper aims to improve video streaming by leveraging a simple observation: users are more sensitive to low quality in certain parts of a video than in others. For instance, rebuffering during key moments of a sports video (e.g., before…
Video live streaming is gaining prevalence among video streaming services, especially for the delivery of popular sporting events. Many objective Video Quality Assessment (VQA) models have been developed to predict the perceptual quality of…
Dense video captioning is an extremely challenging task since accurate and coherent description of events in a video requires holistic understanding of video contents as well as contextual reasoning of individual events. Most existing…
Conventional transformer inference engines are request-driven, paying an O(n) prefill cost on every query. In streaming workloads, where data arrives continuously and queries probe an ever-growing context, this cost is prohibitive. We…
Streaming analysis is widely used in cloud as well as edge infrastructures. In these contexts, fine-grained application performance can be based on accurate modeling of streaming operators. This is especially beneficial for computationally…
Real-world dialogue usually unfolds as an infinite stream. It thus requires bounded-state memory mechanisms to operate within an infinite horizon. However, existing read-then-think memory is fundamentally misaligned with this setting, as it…
We present online prediction methods for time series that let us explicitly handle nonstationary artifacts (e.g. trend and seasonality) present in most real time series. Specifically, we show that applying appropriate transformations to…
Apache Kafka has become a foundational platform for high throughput event streaming, enabling real time analytics, financial transaction processing, industrial telemetry, and large scale data driven systems. Despite its maturity and…
Video quality assessment (VQA) is vital for computer vision tasks, but existing approaches face major limitations: full-reference (FR) metrics require clean reference videos, and most no-reference (NR) models depend on training on costly…
HTTP-based video streaming technologies allow for flexible rate selection strategies that account for time-varying network conditions. Such rate changes may adversely affect the user's Quality of Experience; hence online prediction of the…
Analysts and scientists are interested in querying streams of video, audio, and text to extract quantitative insights. For example, an urban planner may wish to measure congestion by querying the live feed from a traffic camera. Prior work…
In dynamic traffic environments, motion forecasting models must be able to accurately estimate future trajectories continuously. Streaming-based methods are a promising solution, but despite recent advances, their performance often degrades…
Predicting the future occupancy states of the surrounding environment is a vital task for autonomous driving. However, current best-performing single-modality methods or multi-modality fusion perception methods are only able to predict…
