Collaborative filtering (CF), one of the most widely employed methodologies for recommender systems, has drawn undeniable attention due to its effectiveness and simplicity. Nevertheless, a few papers have been published on the CF-based item-based model using similarity measures than the user-based model due to the model's complexity and the time required to build it. Additionally, the substantial shortcomings in the user-based measurements when the item-based model is taken into account motivated us to create stronger models in this work. Not to mention that the common trickiest challenge is dealing with the cold-start problem, in which users' history of item-buying behavior …

Point clouds are widely used in various applications such as 3D modeling, geospatial analysis, robotics, and more. One of the key advantages of 3D point cloud data is that, unlike other data formats like texture, it is independent of viewing angle, surface type, and parameterization. Since each point in the point cloud is independent of the other, it makes it the most suitable source of data for tasks like object recognition, scene segmentation, and reconstruction. Point clouds are complex and verbose due to the numerous attributes they contain, many of which may not be always necessary for rendering, making retrieving …

Joint Location And Cost Planning In Maximum Capture Facility Location Under Random Utilities, Ngan H. Duong, Tien Thanh Dam, Thuy Anh Ta, Tien Mai
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We study a joint facility location and cost planning problem in a competitive market under random utility maximization (RUM) models. The objective is to locate new facilities and make decisions on the costs (or budgets) to spend on the new facilities, aiming to maximize an expected captured customer demand, assuming that customers choose a facility among all available facilities according to a RUM model. We examine two RUM frameworks in the discrete choice literature, namely, the additive and multiplicative RUM. While the former has been widely used in facility location problems, we are the first to explore the latter in …

Robust Maximum Capture Facility Location Under Random Utility Maximization Models, Tien Thanh Dam, Thuy Anh Ta, Tien Mai
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We study a robust version of the maximum capture facility location problem in a competitive market, assuming that each customer chooses among all available facilities according to a random utility maximization (RUM) model. We employ the generalized extreme value (GEV) family of models and assume that the parameters of the RUM model are not given exactly but lie in convex uncertainty sets. The problem is to locate new facilities to maximize the worst-case captured user demand. We show that, interestingly, our robust model preserves the monotonicity and submodularity from its deterministic counterpart, implying that a simple greedy heuristic can guarantee …

Your Cursor Reveals: On Analyzing Workers’ Browsing Behavior And Annotation Quality In Crowdsourcing Tasks, Pei-Chi Lo, Ee-Peng Lim
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In this work, we investigate the connection between browsing behavior and task quality of crowdsourcing workers performing annotation tasks that require information judgements. Such information judgements are often required to derive ground truth answers to information retrieval queries. We explore the use of workers’ browsing behavior to directly determine their annotation result quality. We hypothesize user attention to be the main factor contributing to a worker’s annotation quality. To predict annotation quality at the task level, we model two aspects of task-specific user attention, also known as general and semantic user attentions . Both aspects of user attention can be …

Publications and Research
Efficiency is essential to support responsiveness w.r.t. ever-growing datasets, especially for Deep Learning (DL) systems. DL frameworks have traditionally embraced deferred execution-style DL code—supporting symbolic, graph-based Deep Neural Network (DNN) computation. While scalable, such development is error-prone, non-intuitive, and difficult to debug. Consequently, more natural, imperative DL frameworks encouraging eager execution have emerged at the expense of run-time performance. Though hybrid approaches aim for the "best of both worlds," using them effectively requires subtle considerations to make code amenable to safe, accurate, and efficient graph execution. We present our ongoing work on automated refactoring that assists developers in specifying whether …
