Network virtualization enables Internet service providers to run multiple heterogeneous and dedicated network architectures for different customers on a shared substrate. In existing works on virtual network embedding (VNE), each customer…

Visual commonsense reasoning (VCR) is a challenging multi-modal task, which requires high-level cognition and commonsense reasoning ability about the real world. In recent years, large-scale pre-training approaches have been developed and…

We propose a formal model for distributed systems, where each participant advertises its requirements and obligations as behavioural contracts, and where multiparty sessions are started when a set of contracts allows to synthesise a…

The automatic composition of web services refers to how services can be used in a complex and aggregate manner, to serve a specific and known functionality. Given a list of services described by the input and output parameters, and a…

Visual Servoing has been effectively used to move a robot into specific target locations or to track a recorded demonstration. It does not require manual programming, but it is typically limited to settings where one demonstration maps to…

Skeleton-aware sign language recognition (SLR) has gained popularity due to its ability to remain unaffected by background information and its lower computational requirements. Current methods utilize spatial graph modules and temporal…

The size and complexity of software and hardware systems have significantly increased in the past years. As a result, it is harder to guarantee their correct behavior. One of the most successful methods for automated verification of…

Referring to objects in a natural and unambiguous manner is crucial for effective human-robot interaction. Previous research on learning-based referring expressions has focused primarily on comprehension tasks, while generating referring…

Several applications demand the timely detection of critical situations, such as threats to safety and transparency, over high-velocity streams of symbolic events. This demand has motivated the development of (i) event specification…

Session-based Recommendation (SBR) refers to the task of predicting the next item based on short-term user behaviors within an anonymous session. However, session embedding learned by a non-linear encoder is usually not in the same…

Hand gesture-based sign language recognition (SLR) is one of the most advanced applications of machine learning, and computer vision uses hand gestures. Although, in the past few years, many researchers have widely explored and studied how…

The impact of globalization and worldwide competition has forced firms to modify their strategies towards a real time operation with respect to customer's requirements. This behaviour, together with the communication possibilities offered…

In the context of the BI-REX (Big Data Innovation and Research Excellence) competence center SEAWALL (SEAmless loW lAtency cLoud pLatforms) project (scientific coordinator Prof. Maurizio Gabbrielli) we develop a novel approach for run-time…

Social coordination allows users to move beyond awareness of their friends to efficiently coordinating physical activities with others. While specific forms of social coordination can be seen in tools such as Evite, Meetup and Groupon, we…

The Adaptable TeaStore has recently been proposed as a reference model for adaptable microservice architectures. It includes different configurations, as well as scenarios requiring to transition between them. We describe an implementation…

Contracts are a well-established approach for describing and analyzing behavioral aspects of web service compositions. The theory of contracts comes equipped with a notion of compatibility between clients and servers that ensures that every…

Situated conversational recommendation (SCR), which utilizes visual scenes grounded in specific environments and natural language dialogue to deliver contextually appropriate recommendations, has emerged as a promising research direction…

Language-driven object navigation requires agents to interpret natural language descriptions of target objects, which combine intrinsic and extrinsic attributes for instance recognition and commonsense navigation. Existing methods either…

Tracking entities throughout a procedure described in a text is challenging due to the dynamic nature of the world described in the process. Firstly, we propose to formulate this task as a question answering problem. This enables us to use…

Syntax is fundamental to our thinking about language. Failing to capture the structure of input language could lead to generalization problems and over-parametrization. In the present work, we propose a new syntax-aware language model:…
