Implicit feedback is frequently used for developing personalized recommendation services due to its ubiquity and accessibility in real-world systems. In order to effectively utilize such information, most research adopts the pairwise…

Search engines often follow a pipeline architecture, where complex but effective reranking components are used to refine the results of an initial retrieval. Retrieval augmented generation (RAG) is an exciting application of the pipeline…

Code sharing and reuse is a widespread use practice in software engineering. Although a vast amount of open-source Python code is accessible on many online platforms, programmers often find it difficult to restore a successful runtime…

We give new algorithms for tree evaluation (S. Cook et al. TOCT 2012) in the catalytic-computing model (Buhrman et al. STOC 2014). Two existing approaches aim to solve tree evaluation in low space: on the one hand, J. Cook and Mertz (STOC…

This work describes the TrueLearn Python library, which contains a family of online learning Bayesian models for building educational (or more generally, informational) recommendation systems. This family of models was designed following…

Benchmarks play a crucial role in the development and analysis of reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms. We identify that existing benchmarks used for research into open-ended learning fall into one of two categories. Either they are too…

In reinforcement learning, Reverse Experience Replay (RER) is a recently proposed algorithm that attains better sample complexity than the classic experience replay method. RER requires the learning algorithm to update the parameters…

We introduce a cluster evaluation technique called Tree Index. Our Tree Index algorithm aims at describing the structural information of the clustering rather than the quantitative format of cluster-quality indexes (where the representation…

In many evolutionary computation systems, parent selection methods can affect, among other things, convergence to a solution. In this paper, we present a study comparing the role of two commonly used parent selection methods in evolving…

In this work, we investigate improving the runtime performance of key computational kernels in the Python Tensor Toolbox (pyttb), a package for analyzing tensor data across a wide variety of applications. Recent runtime performance…

People have shown that in-network computation (INC) significantly boosts performance in many application scenarios include distributed training, MapReduce, agreement, and network monitoring. However, existing INC programming is unfriendly…

Although large-scale pre-trained language models (PTLMs) are shown to encode rich knowledge in their model parameters, the inherent knowledge in PTLMs can be opaque or static, making external knowledge necessary. However, the existing…

A good number of toolkits have been developed in Recommender Systems (RecSys) research to promote fair evaluation and reproducibility. However, recent critical examinations of RecSys evaluation protocols have raised concerns regarding the…

Assessors make preference judgments faster and more consistently than graded judgments. Preference judgments can also recognize distinctions between items that appear equivalent under graded judgments. Unfortunately, preference judgments…

Information Retrieval (IR) evaluation involves far more complexity than merely presenting performance measures in a table. Researchers often need to compare multiple models across various dimensions, such as the Precision-Recall trade-off…

Python has emerged as one of the most popular programming languages, extensively utilized in domains such as machine learning, data analysis, and web applications. Python's dynamic nature and extensive usage make it an attractive candidate…

In recent years, tree tensor network methods have proven capable of simulating quantum many-body and other high-dimensional systems. This work is a user guide to our Python library PyTreeNet. It includes code examples and exercises to…

CodEval is a code evaluation tool that integrates with the Canvas Learning Management System to automatically evaluates students' work within a few minutes of the submission. This early feedback allows students to catch and correct problems…

Enhancing the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs), particularly for complex tasks requiring multi-step logical deductions, remains a significant challenge. Traditional inference time scaling methods utilize scalar reward…

In this paper, we present a submission to the Touche lab's Task 2 on Argument Retrieval for Comparative Questions. Our team Katana supplies several approaches based on decision tree ensembles algorithms to rank comparative documents in…
