E-commerce platforms usually present an ordered list, mixed with several organic items and an advertisement, in response to each user's page view request. This list, the outcome of ad auction and allocation processes, directly impacts the platform's ad ...

IC3 is a famous bit-level framework for safety verification. By incorporating datapath abstraction, a notable enhancement in the efficiency of hardware verification can be achieved. However, datapath abstraction entails a coarse level of abstraction where ...

Three-way merging is an essential component of version control systems. Despite the efficiency of the conventional line-based textual methods, syntax-based structured approaches have demonstrated benefits in improving merge accuracy. Prior ...

P4 is a mainstream language for Software Defined Network (SDN) data planes. P4 is designed to achieve target-independent, protocol-independent, and configurable SDN data planes. However, logic errors may occur in P4 programs, resulting in improper packet ...

Trigeminal neuralgia is a common cerebral neurological disorder. Clinical intervention for this disorder typically involves puncturing the foramen ovale at the skull base. However, the small morphological structure of the foramen ovale and the complex ...

Layout-sensitive grammars have been adopted in many modern programming languages. In a serious language design phase, the specified syntax—typically a grammar—must be unambiguous. Although checking ambiguity is undecidable for context-free grammars ...

Recently, learning embeddings of nodes in graphs has attracted increasing research attention. There are two main kinds of graph embedding methods, i.e., transductive embedding methods and inductive embedding methods. The former focuses on directly ...

Termination is a fundamental liveness property for program verification. In this paper, we revisit the problem of non-termination analysis and propose the first data-driven learning algorithm for synthesizing recurrent sets, where the non-terminating ...

In collaborative software development, programmers create software branches to add features and fix bugs tentatively, and then merge branches to integrate edits. When edits from different branches textually overlap (i.e., textual conflicts) or lead to ...

Automatically verifying multi-threaded programs is difficult because of the vast number of thread interleavings, a problem aggravated by weak memory consistency. Partial orders can help with verification because they can represent many thread ...

Human Activity Recognition (HAR) based on Channel State Information (CSI) has important application prospects in various fields such as human–computer interactivity, medical health et al. Although the current CSI-based HAR researches have made ...

Video instance segmentation (VIS) aims at segmenting and tracking objects in videos. Prior methods typically generate frame-level or clip-level object instances first and then associate them by either additional tracking heads or complex instance ...

In recent years, the recommendation field has gradually started to combine GNN-like approaches to address the challenges. The Neural Graph Collaborative Filtering (NGCF) framework has made a preliminary attempt to extract structural knowledge in model-...

The happens-before orders have been widely adopted to model thread interleaving behaviors of concurrent programs. A dedicated ordering theory solver, usually composed of theory propagation, consistency checking, and conflict clause generation, plays a ...

[inline-graphic not available: see fulltext] is a widely-used document preparation system. Its powerful ability in mathematical equation editing is perhaps the main reason for its popularity in academia. Sometimes, however, even an expert user may ...

Three-way merging is an essential infrastructure in version control systems. While the traditional line-based textual methods are efficient, syntax-based structured approaches have shown advantages in enhancing merge accuracy. Prior structured ...$$

Dysphagia is a widespread swallowing disorder. One of the most widely used clinical assessments is the bedside swallowing disorder screening, including the water swallow test. This method can only diagnose the disease according to the choking ...

• We achieve an early screening of dysphagia based on speech analysis.
• We use a new data acquisition system to collect clear throat vibration.
• We design a new integrated classifier that performs well.
• A new group of speech ...

• We propose a novel temporal-adaptive sparse feature aggregation framework for challenging video object detection.

Video object detection is a challenging task due to the appearance deterioration in video frames. To enhance feature representation of the deteriorated frames, previous methods usually aggregate features from fixed-density and fixed-...

Termination is a fundamental liveness property for program verification. A loop bound is an upper bound of the number of loop iterations for a given program. The existence of a loop bound evidences the termination of the program. This paper employs a ...

Deagle is an SMT-based multi-threaded program verification tool. It is built on top of CBMC (front-end) and MiniSAT (back-end). The basic idea of Deagle is to integrate into the SMT solver an ordering consistency theory that handles ordering ...
