In recent years, discrete wavelet transform (DWT) provides an useful platform for digital information hiding and copyright protection. Many DWT-based algorithms for this aim are proposed. The performance of these algorithms is in term of…

Optical camera communications (OCC) has emerged as a key enabling technology for the seamless operation of future autonomous vehicles. In this paper, we introduce a spectral efficiency optimization approach in vehicular OCC. Specifically,…

In this paper, we propose to tackle the problem of reducing discrepancies between multiple domains referred to as multi-source domain adaptation and consider it under the target shift assumption: in all domains we aim to solve a…

This paper is concerned with distributed stochastic multi-agent constrained optimization problem over time-varying network with a class of communication noise. This paper considers the problem in composite optimization setting which is more…

Whilst optimal transport (OT) is increasingly being recognized as a powerful and flexible approach for dealing with fairness issues, current OT fairness methods are confined to the use of discrete OT. In this paper, we leverage recent…

We propose a method to generate robust and optimal trajectories for the transition of a tiltwing Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) aircraft leveraging concepts from convex optimisation, tube-based nonlinear Model Predictive Control (MPC)…

Neural text ranking models have witnessed significant advancement and are increasingly being deployed in practice. Unfortunately, they also inherit adversarial vulnerabilities of general neural models, which have been detected but remain…

Accurate sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) alignment is critical for applications like medical speech analysis and language learning tools relying on automatic speech recognition (ASR). State-of-the-art end-to-end (E2E) ASR systems, such as…

End-to-End Speech Translation (E2E-ST) has seen significant advancements, yet current models are primarily benchmarked on curated, "clean" datasets. This overlooks critical real-world challenges, such as morphological robustness to…

Domain adaptation aims to transfer knowledge of labeled instances obtained from a source domain to a target domain to fill the gap between the domains. Most domain adaptation methods assume that the source and target domains have the same…

As we interact with the world, for example when we communicate with our colleagues in a large open space or meeting room, we continuously analyse the surrounding environment and, in particular, localise and recognise acoustic events. While…

The existence of multiple datasets for sarcasm detection prompts us to apply transfer learning to exploit their commonality. The adversarial neural transfer (ANT) framework utilizes multiple loss terms that encourage the source-domain and…

An effective approach for voice conversion (VC) is to disentangle linguistic content from other components in the speech signal. The effectiveness of variational autoencoder (VAE) based VC (VAE-VC), for instance, strongly relies on this…

Distributed online convex optimization (D-OCO) is a powerful paradigm for modeling distributed scenarios with streaming data. However, the communication cost between local learners and the central server is substantial in large-scale…

Domain adaptation is commonly employed in crowd counting to bridge the domain gaps between different datasets. However, existing domain adaptation methods tend to focus on inter-dataset differences while overlooking the intra-differences…

Optimal transport (OT) theory underlies many emerging machine learning (ML) methods nowadays solving a wide range of tasks such as generative modeling, transfer learning and information retrieval. These latter works, however, usually build…

Non-parallel many-to-many voice conversion, as well as zero-shot voice conversion, remain under-explored areas. Deep style transfer algorithms, such as generative adversarial networks (GAN) and conditional variational autoencoder (CVAE),…

Dynamic Optimization Problems (DOPs) are challenging to address due to their complex nature, i.e., dynamic environment variation. Evolutionary Computation methods are generally advantaged in solving DOPs since they resemble dynamic…

Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) enhances the efficiency of Autonomous Vehicles (AV), but also makes them susceptible to backdoor attacks that can result in traffic congestion or collisions. Backdoor functionality is typically incorporated…

Selecting input features of top relevance has become a popular method for building self-explaining models. In this work, we extend this selective rationalization approach to text matching, where the goal is to jointly select and align text…
