Empirical Evaluation Of Three Common Assumptions In Building Political Media Bias Datasets, Soumen GANGULY, Juhi KULSHRESTHA, Jisun AN, Haewoon KWAK 2020 Singapore Management University

Empirical Evaluation Of Three Common Assumptions In Building Political Media Bias Datasets, Soumen Ganguly, Juhi Kulshrestha, Jisun An, Haewoon Kwak

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

In this work, we empirically validate three common assumptions in building political media bias datasets, which are (i) labelers' political leanings do not affect labeling tasks, (ii) news articles follow their source outlet's political leaning, and (iii) political leaning of a news outlet is stable across different topics. We build a ground-truth dataset of manually annotated article-level political leaning and validate the three assumptions. Our findings warn that the three assumptions could be invalid even for a small dataset. We hope that our work calls attention to the (in)validity of common assumptions in building political media bias datasets.

Gpu-Accelerated Subgraph Enumeration On Partitioned Graphs, Wentian Guo, Yuchen Li, Mo Sha, Bingsheng He, Xiaokui Xiao, Kian-Lee Tan

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Subgraph enumeration is important for many applications such as network motif discovery and community detection. Recent works utilize graphics processing units (GPUs) to parallelize subgraph enumeration, but they can only handle graphs that fit into the GPU memory. In this paper, we propose a new approach for GPU-accelerated subgraph enumeration that can efficiently scale to large graphs beyond the GPU memory. Our approach divides the graph into partitions, each of which fits into the GPU memory. The GPU processes one partition at a time and searches the matched subgraphs of a given pattern (i.e., instances) within the partition as in …

Adaptive Loss-Aware Quantization For Multi-Bit Networks, Zhongnan Qu, Zimu Zhou, Yun Cheng, Lothar Thiele

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

We investigate the compression of deep neural networks by quantizing their weights and activations into multiple binary bases, known as multi-bit networks (MBNs), which accelerate the inference and reduce the storage for the deployment on low-resource mobile and embedded platforms. We propose Adaptive Loss-aware Quantization (ALQ), a new MBN quantization pipeline that is able to achieve an average bitwidth below one-bit without notable loss in inference accuracy. Unlike previous MBN quantization solutions that train a quantizer by minimizing the error to reconstruct full precision weights, ALQ directly minimizes the quantizationinduced error on the loss function involving neither gradient approximation nor …
