  2. MSR Talk: Unsupervised Speech Reverberation Control with Diffusion Implicit Bridges 

    May 14, 2024

    Speaker(s): Eloi MolinerHost: Hannes Gamper Speech reverberation control involves the manipulation of acoustic characteristics in speech recordings, including tasks like speech dereverberation or reverberation time reduction. Diffusion implicit bridges are a recently proposed domain translation technique based on diffusion models and entropy-regularized optimal transport. They…

  3. TimeX++: Learning Time-Series Explanations with Information Bottleneck 

    May 14, 2024

    Explaining deep learning models operating on time series data is crucial in various applications of interest which require interpretable and transparent insights from time series signals. In this work, we investigate this problem from an information theoretic perspective and show that most existing measures of…

  4. VASIM: Vertical Autoscaling Simulator Toolkit 

    May 14, 2024

    In recent years, autoscaling has garnered significant attention in cloud computing, emphasizing cost efficiency, performance optimization, and availability for dynamic workloads. New algorithms for horizontal, vertical, and hybrid scaling, targeting instances, VM specifications, and resources like CPU, memory, and IO, have emerged. Various approaches, including…

    MatterSim: A deep-learning model for materials under real-world conditions 

    May 13, 2024 | Han Yang, Jielan Li, Hongxia Hao, and Ziheng Lu

    Property prediction for materials under realistic conditions has been a long-standing challenge within the digital transformation of materials design. MatterSim investigates atomic interactions from the very fundamental principles of quantum mechanics.

  6. A Graph-based Framework for Reducing False Positives in Authentication Alerts in Security Systems 

    May 13, 2024 | Yanbang Wang, Karl Hallgren, and Jonathan Larson

    The high false positive (FP) rate of authentication alerts remains to be a prominent challenge in cybersecurity nowadays. We identify two problems that cause this issue, which are unaddressed in existing learning-based anomaly detection methods. First, in industrial applications, ground-truth labels for malicious authentication events…

  7. Generalizing Knowledge Graph Embedding with Universal Orthogonal Parameterization 

    May 13, 2024

    Recent advances in knowledge graph embedding (KGE) rely on Euclidean/hyperbolic orthogonal relation transformations to model intrinsic logical patterns and topological structures. However, existing approaches are confined to rigid relational orthogonalization with restricted dimension and homogeneous geometry, leading to deficient modeling capability. In this work, we…
