Constrained Assortment Optimization Under The Cross-Nested Logit Model, Cuong Le, Tien Mai
Constrained Assortment Optimization Under The Cross-Nested Logit Model, Cuong Le, Tien Mai
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We study the assortment optimization problem under general linear constraints, where the customer choice behavior is captured by the cross-nested logit model. In this problem, there is a set of products organized into multiple subsets (or nests), where each product can belong to more than one nest. The aim is to find an assortment to offer to customers so that the expected revenue is maximized. We show that, under the cross-nested logit model, the unconstrained assortment problem is NP-hard even when there are only two nests, and the problem is generally NP-hard to approximate to any constant factors. To tackle …

Themis: Automatic And Efficient Deep Learning System Testing With Strong Fault Detection Capability, Dong Huang, Tsz On Li, Xiaofei Xie, Heming Cui
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Deep Learning Systems (DLSs) have been widely applied in safety-critical tasks such as autopilot. However, when a perturbed input is fed into a DLS for inference, the DLS often has incorrect outputs (i.e., faults). DLS testing techniques (e.g., DeepXplore) detect such faults by generating perturbed inputs to explore data flows that induce faults. Since a DLS often has infinitely many data flows, existing techniques require developers to manually specify a set of activation values in a DLS’s neurons for exploring fault-inducing data flows. Unfortunately, recent studies show that such manual effort is tedious and can detect only a tiny proportion …
Joint Weakly Supervised Image Emotion Analysis Based On Interclass Discrimination And Intraclass Correlation, Xinyue Zhang, Zhaoxia Wang, Guitao Cao, Seng-Beng Ho
Joint Weakly Supervised Image Emotion Analysis Based On Interclass Discrimination And Intraclass Correlation, Xinyue Zhang, Zhaoxia Wang, Guitao Cao, Seng-Beng Ho
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Regional information-based image emotion analysis has recently garnered significant attention. However, existing methods often focus on identifying region proposals through layered steps or merely rely on visual saliency. These approaches may lead to an underestimation of emotional categories and a lack of comprehensive interclass discrimination perception and emotional intraclass contextual mining. To address these limitations, we propose a novel approach named InterIntraIEA, which combines interclass discrimination and intraclass correlation joint learning capabilities for image emotion analysis. The proposed method not only employs category-specific dictionary learning for class adaptation, but also models intraclass contextual relationships and perceives correlations at the channel …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In social service centers, practitioners engage in conversations with clients with dementia to facilitate their daily activities and provide support when they are distressed. However, the nature of the care demands the practitioner’s active engagement, which becomes difficult to deliver as the number of people who need care expands. Researchers have been investigating the efficacy of developing agents that assume conversational tasks to alleviate this work. To contribute to the future design of agents for caregiving, we collected and analyzed ten conversations between clients with mild dementia and practitioners who provide care. Our analyses of turn-taking dynamics and dialogue acts …

Desk2desk : Optimization-Based Mixed Reality Workspace Integration For Remote Side-By-Side Collaboration, Ludwig Sidenmark, Tianyu Zhang, Leen Al Lababidi, Jiannan Li, Tovi Grossman
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Mixed Reality enables hybrid workspaces where physical and virtual monitors are adaptively created and moved to suit the current environment and needs. However, in shared settings, individual users’ workspaces are rarely aligned and can vary significantly in the number of monitors, available physical space, and workspace layout, creating inconsistencies between workspaces which may cause confusion and reduce collaboration. We present Desk2Desk, an optimization-based approach for remote collaboration in which the hybrid workspaces of two collaborators are fully integrated to enable immersive side-by-side collaboration. The optimization adjusts each user’s workspace in layout and number of shared monitors and creates a mapping …
Improving Out-Of-Distribution Detection With Disentangled Foreground And Background Features, Choubo Ding, Guansong Pang
Improving Out-Of-Distribution Detection With Disentangled Foreground And Background Features, Choubo Ding, Guansong Pang
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Detecting out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs is a principal task for ensuring the safety of deploying deep-neural-network classifiers in open-set scenarios. OOD samples can be drawn from arbitrary distributions and exhibit deviations from in-distribution (ID) data in various dimensions, such as foreground features (e.g., objects in CIFAR100 images vs. those in CIFAR10 images) and background features (e.g., textural images vs. objects in CIFAR10). Existing methods can confound foreground and background features in training, failing to utilize the background features for OOD detection. This paper considers the importance of feature disentanglement in out-of-distribution detection and proposes the simultaneous exploitation of both foreground and …

An Empirical Study Of Automatic Program Repair Techniques For Injection Vulnerabilities, Tingwei Zhu, Tongtong Xu, Kui Liu, Jiayuan Zhou, Xing Hu, Xin Xia, Tian Zhang, David Lo
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Injection vulnerabilities are among the most serious and dangerous security defects, as they can be exploited by attackers to inject malicious inputs and carry out cybercrimes. Timely fixing of injection vulnerabilities is crucial. However, manual repairs of injection vulnerabilities often require specialized knowledge and are prone to errors, posing a challenge and a heavy burden on developers. In recent years, Automated Program Repair (APR) techniques have shown promising momentum in automatically fixing general defects. Yet, there has been no research on how APR techniques perform in repairing injection vulnerabilities. Therefore, in this paper, we conduct an empirical study. We first …
