We consider the problem of coded distributed computing where a large linear computational job, such as a matrix multiplication, is divided into $k$ smaller tasks, encoded using an $(n,k)$ linear code, and performed over $n$ distributed…

In low-resource settings, the performance of supervised labeling models can be improved with automatically annotated or distantly supervised data, which is cheap to create but often noisy. Previous works have shown that significant…

Labeling real-world datasets is time consuming but indispensable for supervised machine learning models. A common solution is to distribute the labeling task across a large number of non-expert workers via crowd-sourcing. Due to the varying…

Crowdsourcing is a mechanism by means of which groups of people are able to execute a task by sharing ideas, efforts and resources. Thanks to the online technologies, crowdsourcing has become in the last decade an even more utilized process…

Zero-shot text classifiers based on label descriptions embed an input text and a set of labels into the same space: measures such as cosine similarity can then be used to select the most similar label description to the input text as the…

Due to the costliness of labelled data in real-world applications, semi-supervised learning, underpinned by pseudo labelling, is an appealing solution. However, handling confusing samples is nontrivial: discarding valuable confusing samples…

We investigate crowdsourcing algorithms for finding the top-quality item within a large collection of objects with unknown intrinsic quality values. This is an important problem with many relevant applications, for example in networked…

The adoption of crowdsourced election monitoring as a complementary alternative to traditional election monitoring is on the rise. Yet, its reliance on digital response volunteers to manually process incoming election reports poses a…

A key challenge in crowdsourcing is inferring the ground truth from noisy and unreliable data. To do so, existing approaches rely on collecting redundant information from the crowd, and aggregating it with some probabilistic method.…

In this paper we show that the Index Coding problem captures several important properties of the more general Network Coding problem. An instance of the Index Coding problem includes a server that holds a set of information messages…

Modern machine learning approaches have led to performant diagnostic models for a variety of health conditions. Several machine learning approaches, such as decision trees and deep neural networks, can, in principle, approximate any…

This paper investigates a unification of distributed source coding, multiple description coding, and source coding with side information at decoders. The equivalence between the multiple-decoder extension of distributed source coding with…

The proportionate increase in the size of the data with increase in space implies that clustering a very large data set becomes difficult and is a time consuming process.Sampling is one important technique to scale down the size of dataset…

Classification predicts classes of objects using the knowledge learned during the training phase. This process requires learning from labeled samples. However, the labeled samples usually limited. Annotation process is annoying, tedious,…

Interactive visualization of embedding projections is a useful technique for understanding data and evaluating machine learning models. Labeling data within these visualizations is critical for interpretation, as labels provide an overview…

Crowdsourcing platforms offer a practical solution to the problem of affordably annotating large datasets for training supervised classifiers. Unfortunately, poor worker performance frequently threatens to compromise annotation reliability,…

Boundary labeling is a technique in computational geometry used to label sets of features in an illustration. It involves placing labels along an axis-parallel bounding box and connecting each label with its corresponding feature using…

Traditional supervised learning requires ground truth labels for the training data, whose collection can be difficult in many cases. Recently, crowdsourcing has established itself as an efficient labeling solution through resorting to…
