This paper evaluates the extent to which current Large Language Models (LLMs) can capture task-oriented multi-party conversations (MPCs). We have recorded and transcribed 29 MPCs between patients, their companions, and a social robot in a hospital. We then annotated this corpus for multi-party goal-tracking and intent-slot recognition. People share goals, answer each other's goals, and provide other people's goals in MPCs - none of which occur in dyadic interactions. To understand user goals in MPCs, we compared three methods in zero-shot and few-shot settings: we fine-tuned T5, created pre-training tasks to train DialogLM using LED, and employed prompt engineering techniques with GPT-3.5-turbo, to determine which approach can complete this novel task with limited data. GPT-3.5-turbo significantly outperformed the others in a few-shot setting. The `reasoning' style prompt, when given 7% of the corpus as example annotated conversations, was the best performing method. It correctly annotated 62.32% of the goal tracking MPCs, and 69.57% of the intent-slot recognition MPCs. A `story' style prompt increased model hallucination, which could be detrimental if deployed in safety-critical settings. We conclude that multi-party conversations still challenge state-of-the-art LLMs.

Modern systems mitigate Rowhammer using victim refresh, which refreshes the two neighbours of an aggressor row when it encounters a specified number of activations. Unfortunately, complex attack patterns like Half-Double break victim-refresh, rendering current systems vulnerable. Instead, recently proposed secure Rowhammer mitigations rely on performing mitigative action on the aggressor rather than the victims. Such schemes employ mitigative actions such as row-migration or access-control and include AQUA, SRS, and Blockhammer. While these schemes incur only modest slowdowns at Rowhammer thresholds of few thousand, they incur prohibitive slowdowns (15%-600%) for lower thresholds that are likely in the near future. The goal of our paper is to make secure Rowhammer mitigations practical at such low thresholds. Our paper provides the key insights that benign application encounter thousands of hot rows (receiving more activations than the threshold) due to the memory mapping, which places spatially proximate lines in the same row to maximize row-buffer hitrate. Unfortunately, this causes row to receive activations for many frequently used lines. We propose Rubix, which breaks the spatial correlation in the line-to-row mapping by using an encrypted address to access the memory, reducing the likelihood of hot rows by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude. To aid row-buffer hits, Rubix randomizes a group of 1-4 lines. We also propose Rubix-D, which dynamically changes the line-to-row mapping. Rubix-D minimizes hot-rows and makes it much harder for an adversary to learn the spatial neighbourhood of a row. Rubix reduces the slowdown of AQUA (from 15% to 1%), SRS (from 60% to 2%), and Blockhammer (from 600% to 3%) while incurring a storage of less than 1 Kilobyte.

In stark contrast to the case of images, finding a concise, learnable discrete representation of 3D surfaces remains a challenge. In particular, while polygon meshes are arguably the most common surface representation used in geometry processing, their irregular and combinatorial structure often make them unsuitable for learning-based applications. In this work, we present VoroMesh, a novel and differentiable Voronoi-based representation of watertight 3D shape surfaces. From a set of 3D points (called generators) and their associated occupancy, we define our boundary representation through the Voronoi diagram of the generators as the subset of Voronoi faces whose two associated (equidistant) generators are of opposite occupancy: the resulting polygon mesh forms a watertight approximation of the target shape's boundary. To learn the position of the generators, we propose a novel loss function, dubbed VoroLoss, that minimizes the distance from ground truth surface samples to the closest faces of the Voronoi diagram which does not require an explicit construction of the entire Voronoi diagram. A direct optimization of the Voroloss to obtain generators on the Thingi32 dataset demonstrates the geometric efficiency of our representation compared to axiomatic meshing algorithms and recent learning-based mesh representations. We further use VoroMesh in a learning-based mesh prediction task from input SDF grids on the ABC dataset, and show comparable performance to state-of-the-art methods while guaranteeing closed output surfaces free of self-intersections.

Conditional branches pose a challenge for code optimisation, particularly in low latency settings. For better performance, processors leverage dedicated hardware to predict the outcome of a branch and execute the following instructions speculatively, a powerful optimisation. Modern branch predictors employ sophisticated algorithms and heuristics that utilise historical data and patterns to make predictions, and often, are extremely effective at doing so. Consequently, programmers may inadvertently underestimate the cost of misprediction when benchmarking code with synthetic data that is either too short or too predictable. While eliminating branches may not always be feasible, C++20 introduced the [[likely]] and [[unlikely]] attributes that enable the compiler to perform spot optimisations on assembly code associated with likely execution paths. Can we do better than this? This work presents the development of a novel language construct, referred to as a semi-static condition, which enables programmers to dynamically modify the direction of a branch at run-time by modifying the assembly code within the underlying executable. Subsequently, we explore scenarios where the use of semi-static conditions outperforms traditional conditional branching, highlighting their potential applications in real-time machine learning and high-frequency trading. Throughout the development process, key considerations of performance, portability, syntax, and security were taken into account.

The classical risk-neutral newsvendor problem is to decide the order quantity that maximises the expected profit. Some recent works have proposed an alternative model, in which the goal is to minimise the conditional value-at-risk (CVaR), a different but very much important risk measure in financial risk management. In this paper, we propose a feature-based non-parametric approach to Newsvendor CVaR minimisation under adaptive data selection (NPC). The NPC method is simple and general. It can handle minimisation with both linear and nonlinear profits, and requires no prior knowledge of the demand distribution. Our main contribution is two-fold. Firstly, NPC uses a feature-based approach. The estimated parameters of NPC can be easily applied to prescriptive analytic to provide additional operational insights. Secondly, unlike common non-parametric methods, our NPC method uses an adaptive data selection criterion and requires only a small proportion of data (only data from two tails), significantly reducing the computational effort. Results from both numerical and real-life experiments confirm that NPC is robust with regard to difficult and large data structures. Using fewer data points, the computed order quantities from NPC lead to equal or less downside loss in extreme cases than competing methods.

Linguistic style matching (LSM) in conversations can be reflective of several aspects of social influence such as power or persuasion. However, how LSM relates to the outcomes of online communication on platforms such as Reddit is an unknown question. In this study, we analyze a large corpus of two-party conversation threads in Reddit where we identify all occurrences of LSM using two types of style: the use of function words and formality. Using this framework, we examine how levels of LSM differ in conversations depending on several social factors within Reddit: post and subreddit features, conversation depth, user tenure, and the controversiality of a comment. Finally, we measure the change of LSM following loss of status after community banning. Our findings reveal the interplay of LSM in Reddit conversations with several community metrics, suggesting the importance of understanding conversation engagement when understanding community dynamics.

In this paper we consider the problem of recovering a low-rank Tucker approximation to a massive tensor based solely on structured random compressive measurements. Crucially, the proposed random measurement ensembles are both designed to be compactly represented (i.e., low-memory), and can also be efficiently computed in one-pass over the tensor. Thus, the proposed compressive sensing approach may be used to produce a low-rank factorization of a huge tensor that is too large to store in memory with a total memory footprint on the order of the much smaller desired low-rank factorization. In addition, the compressive sensing recovery algorithm itself (which takes the compressive measurements as input, and then outputs a low-rank factorization) also runs in a time which principally depends only on the size of the sought factorization, making its runtime sub-linear in the size of the large tensor one is approximating. Finally, unlike prior works related to (streaming) algorithms for low-rank tensor approximation from such compressive measurements, we present a unified analysis of both Kronecker and Khatri-Rao structured measurement ensembles culminating in error guarantees comparing the error of our recovery algorithm's approximation of the input tensor to the best possible low-rank Tucker approximation error achievable for the tensor by any possible algorithm. We further include an empirical study of the proposed approach that verifies our theoretical findings and explores various trade-offs of parameters of interest.

Glaucoma is the number one cause of irreversible blindness globally. A major challenge for accurate glaucoma detection and progression forecasting is the bottleneck of limited labeled patients with the state-of-the-art (SOTA) 3D retinal imaging data of optical coherence tomography (OCT). To address the data scarcity issue, this paper proposes two solutions. First, we develop a novel generalization-reinforced semi-supervised learning (SSL) model called pseudo supervisor to optimally utilize unlabeled data. Compared with SOTA models, the proposed pseudo supervisor optimizes the policy of predicting pseudo labels with unlabeled samples to improve empirical generalization. Our pseudo supervisor model is evaluated with two clinical tasks consisting of glaucoma detection and progression forecasting. The progression forecasting task is evaluated both unimodally and multimodally. Our pseudo supervisor model demonstrates superior performance than SOTA SSL comparison models. Moreover, our model also achieves the best results on the publicly available LAG fundus dataset. Second, we introduce the Harvard Glaucoma Detection and Progression (Harvard-GDP) Dataset, a multimodal multitask dataset that includes data from 1,000 patients with OCT imaging data, as well as labels for glaucoma detection and progression. This is the largest glaucoma detection dataset with 3D OCT imaging data and the first glaucoma progression forecasting dataset that is publicly available. Detailed sex and racial analysis are provided, which can be used by interested researchers for fairness learning studies. Our released dataset is benchmarked with several SOTA supervised CNN and transformer deep learning models. The dataset and code are made publicly available via \url{//ophai.hms.harvard.edu/datasets/harvard-gdp1000}.

Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs) have achieved great success in various Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks under the pre-training and fine-tuning paradigm. With large quantities of parameters, PLMs are computation-intensive and resource-hungry. Hence, model pruning has been introduced to compress large-scale PLMs. However, most prior approaches only consider task-specific knowledge towards downstream tasks, but ignore the essential task-agnostic knowledge during pruning, which may cause catastrophic forgetting problem and lead to poor generalization ability. To maintain both task-agnostic and task-specific knowledge in our pruned model, we propose ContrAstive Pruning (CAP) under the paradigm of pre-training and fine-tuning. It is designed as a general framework, compatible with both structured and unstructured pruning. Unified in contrastive learning, CAP enables the pruned model to learn from the pre-trained model for task-agnostic knowledge, and fine-tuned model for task-specific knowledge. Besides, to better retain the performance of the pruned model, the snapshots (i.e., the intermediate models at each pruning iteration) also serve as effective supervisions for pruning. Our extensive experiments show that adopting CAP consistently yields significant improvements, especially in extremely high sparsity scenarios. With only 3% model parameters reserved (i.e., 97% sparsity), CAP successfully achieves 99.2% and 96.3% of the original BERT performance in QQP and MNLI tasks. In addition, our probing experiments demonstrate that the model pruned by CAP tends to achieve better generalization ability.

Recently pre-trained language representation models such as BERT have shown great success when fine-tuned on downstream tasks including information retrieval (IR). However, pre-training objectives tailored for ad-hoc retrieval have not been well explored. In this paper, we propose Pre-training with Representative wOrds Prediction (PROP) for ad-hoc retrieval. PROP is inspired by the classical statistical language model for IR, specifically the query likelihood model, which assumes that the query is generated as the piece of text representative of the "ideal" document. Based on this idea, we construct the representative words prediction (ROP) task for pre-training. Given an input document, we sample a pair of word sets according to the document language model, where the set with higher likelihood is deemed as more representative of the document. We then pre-train the Transformer model to predict the pairwise preference between the two word sets, jointly with the Masked Language Model (MLM) objective. By further fine-tuning on a variety of representative downstream ad-hoc retrieval tasks, PROP achieves significant improvements over baselines without pre-training or with other pre-training methods. We also show that PROP can achieve exciting performance under both the zero- and low-resource IR settings. The code and pre-trained models are available at //github.com/Albert-Ma/PROP.
