In video recommendation, an ongoing effort is to satisfy users' personalized information needs by leveraging their logged watch time. However, watch time prediction suffers from duration bias, hindering its ability to reflect users' interests accurately. Existing label-correction approaches attempt to uncover user interests through grouping and normalizing observed watch time according to video duration. Although effective to some extent, we found that these approaches regard completely played records (i.e., a user watches the entire video) as equally high interest, which deviates from what we observed on real datasets: users have varied explicit feedback proportion when completely playing videos. In this paper, we introduce the counterfactual watch time(CWT), the potential watch time a user would spend on the video if its duration is sufficiently long. Analysis shows that the duration bias is caused by the truncation of CWT due to the video duration limitation, which usually occurs on those completely played records. Besides, a Counterfactual Watch Model (CWM) is proposed, revealing that CWT equals the time users get the maximum benefit from video recommender systems. Moreover, a cost-based transform function is defined to transform the CWT into the estimation of user interest, and the model can be learned by optimizing a counterfactual likelihood function defined over observed user watch times. Extensive experiments on three real video recommendation datasets and online A/B testing demonstrated that CWM effectively enhanced video recommendation accuracy and counteracted the duration bias.

The rise of multi-modal search requests from users has highlighted the importance of multi-modal retrieval (i.e. image-to-text or text-to-image retrieval), yet the more complex task of image-to-multi-modal retrieval, crucial for many industry applications, remains under-explored. To address this gap and promote further research, we introduce and define the concept of Image-to-Multi-Modal Retrieval (IMMR), a process designed to retrieve rich multi-modal (i.e. image and text) documents based on image queries. We focus on representation learning for IMMR and analyze three key challenges for it: 1) skewed data and noisy label in real-world industrial data, 2) the information-inequality between image and text modality of documents when learning representations, 3) effective and efficient training in large-scale industrial contexts. To tackle the above challenges, we propose a novel framework named organizing categories and learning by classification for retrieval (OCLEAR). It consists of three components: 1) a novel category-oriented data governance scheme coupled with a large-scale classification-based learning paradigm, which handles the skewed and noisy data from a data perspective. 2) model architecture specially designed for multi-modal learning, where information-inequality between image and text modality of documents is considered for modality fusion. 3) a hybrid parallel training approach for tackling large-scale training in industrial scenario. The proposed framework achieves SOTA performance on public datasets and has been deployed in a real-world industrial e-commence system, leading to significant business growth. Code will be made publicly available.

Various communication technologies are expected to utilize mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). By combining MANETs with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) communications, one can support scalable, spectrally efficient, and flexible network topologies. To achieve these benefits of NOMA MANETs, one should determine the transmission protocol, particularly the superposition code. However, the latter involves lengthy optimization that has to be repeated when the topology changes. In this work, we propose an algorithm for rapidly optimizing superposition codes in multi-hop NOMA MANETs. To achieve reliable tunning with few iterations, we adopt the emerging deep unfolding methodology, leveraging data to boost reliable settings. Our superposition coding optimization algorithm utilizes a small number of projected gradient steps while learning its per-user hyperparameters to maximize the minimal rate over past channels in an unsupervised manner. The learned optimizer is designed for both settings with full channel state information, as well as when the channel coefficients are to be estimated from pilots. We show that the combination of principled optimization and machine learning yields a scalable optimizer, that once trained, can be applied to different topologies. We cope with the non-convex nature of the optimization problem by applying parallel-learned optimization with different starting points as a form of ensemble learning. Our numerical results demonstrate that the proposed method enables the rapid setting of high-rate superposition codes for various channels.

Large language models (LLMs) rely on safety alignment to avoid responding to malicious user inputs. Unfortunately, jailbreak can circumvent safety guardrails, resulting in LLMs generating harmful content and raising concerns about LLM safety. Due to language models with intensive parameters often regarded as black boxes, the mechanisms of alignment and jailbreak are challenging to elucidate. In this paper, we employ weak classifiers to explain LLM safety through the intermediate hidden states. We first confirm that LLMs learn ethical concepts during pre-training rather than alignment and can identify malicious and normal inputs in the early layers. Alignment actually associates the early concepts with emotion guesses in the middle layers and then refines them to the specific reject tokens for safe generations. Jailbreak disturbs the transformation of early unethical classification into negative emotions. We conduct experiments on models from 7B to 70B across various model families to prove our conclusion. Overall, our paper indicates the intrinsical mechanism of LLM safety and how jailbreaks circumvent safety guardrails, offering a new perspective on LLM safety and reducing concerns.

Accurate and interpretable user satisfaction estimation (USE) is critical for understanding, evaluating, and continuously improving conversational systems. Users express their satisfaction or dissatisfaction with diverse conversational patterns in both general-purpose (ChatGPT and Bing Copilot) and task-oriented (customer service chatbot) conversational systems. Existing approaches based on featurized ML models or text embeddings fall short in extracting generalizable patterns and are hard to interpret. In this work, we show that LLMs can extract interpretable signals of user satisfaction from their natural language utterances more effectively than embedding-based approaches. Moreover, an LLM can be tailored for USE via an iterative prompting framework using supervision from labeled examples. The resulting method, Supervised Prompting for User satisfaction Rubrics (SPUR), not only has higher accuracy but is more interpretable as it scores user satisfaction via learned rubrics with a detailed breakdown.

GPU-enhanced architectures are now dominant in HPC systems, but message-passing communication involving GPUs with MPI has proven to be both complex and expensive, motivating new approaches that lower such costs. We compare and contrast stream/graph- and kernel-triggered MPI communication abstractions, whose principal purpose is to enhance the performance of communication when GPU kernels create or consume data for transfer through MPI operations. Researchers and practitioners have proposed multiple potential APIs for stream and/or kernel triggering that span various GPU architectures and approaches, including MPI-4 partitioned point-to-point communication, stream communicators, and explicit MPI stream/queue objects. Designs breaking backward compatibility with MPI are duly noted. Some of these strengthen or weaken the semantics of MPI operations. A key contribution of this paper is to promote community convergence toward a stream- and/or kernel-triggering abstraction by highlighting the common and differing goals and contributions of existing abstractions. We describe the design space in which these abstractions reside, their implicit or explicit use of stream and other non-MPI abstractions, their relationship to partitioned and persistent operations, and discuss their potential for added performance, how usable these abstractions are, and where functional and/or semantic gaps exist. Finally, we provide a taxonomy for stream- and kernel-triggered abstractions, including disambiguation of similar semantic terms, and consider directions for future standardization in MPI-5.

Nowadays, large language models (LLMs) are published as a service and can be accessed by various applications via APIs, also known as language-model-as-a-service (LMaaS). Without knowing the generation length of requests, existing serving systems serve requests in a first-come, first-served (FCFS) manner with a fixed batch size, which leads to two problems that affect batch serving efficiency. First, the generation lengths of requests in a batch vary, and requests with short generation lengths must wait for requests with long generation lengths to finish during the batch serving procedure. Second, requests with longer generation lengths consume more memory during serving. Without knowing the generation lengths of batched requests, the batch size is always set small to avoid the out-of-memory (OOM) error, thus preventing the GPU from being fully utilized. In this paper, we find that a significant number of popular applications in the LMaaS scenario have a positive correlation between the generation length and the length of raw user input. Based on this observation, we propose Magnus, which can accurately predict the request generation length with the user input length, application-level, and user-level semantic features. Accordingly, Magnus can achieve high request throughput by batching requests of similar generation lengths together with adaptive batch sizes. Besides, Magnus can also schedule batches with the highest response ratio next (HRRN) policy to reduce request response time. Experiments conducted on our testbed show that Magnus improves request throughput by up to 234\% and reduces response time by up to 89.7\% compared to baselines.

Semantic communication, notable for ensuring quality of service by jointly optimizing source and channel coding, effectively extracts data semantics, reduces transmission length, and mitigates channel noise. However, most studies overlook multi-user scenarios and resource availability, limiting real-world application. This paper addresses this gap by focusing on downlink communication from a base station to multiple users with varying computing capacities. Users employ variants of Swin transformer models for source decoding and a simple architecture for channel decoding. We propose a novel training regimen, incorporating transfer learning and knowledge distillation to improve low-computing users' performance. Extensive simulations validate the proposed methods.

Music streaming services heavily rely on recommender systems to improve their users' experience, by helping them navigate through a large musical catalog and discover new songs, albums or artists. However, recommending relevant and personalized content to new users, with few to no interactions with the catalog, is challenging. This is commonly referred to as the user cold start problem. In this applied paper, we present the system recently deployed on the music streaming service Deezer to address this problem. The solution leverages a semi-personalized recommendation strategy, based on a deep neural network architecture and on a clustering of users from heterogeneous sources of information. We extensively show the practical impact of this system and its effectiveness at predicting the future musical preferences of cold start users on Deezer, through both offline and online large-scale experiments. Besides, we publicly release our code as well as anonymized usage data from our experiments. We hope that this release of industrial resources will benefit future research on user cold start recommendation.

Visual information extraction (VIE) has attracted considerable attention recently owing to its various advanced applications such as document understanding, automatic marking and intelligent education. Most existing works decoupled this problem into several independent sub-tasks of text spotting (text detection and recognition) and information extraction, which completely ignored the high correlation among them during optimization. In this paper, we propose a robust visual information extraction system (VIES) towards real-world scenarios, which is a unified end-to-end trainable framework for simultaneous text detection, recognition and information extraction by taking a single document image as input and outputting the structured information. Specifically, the information extraction branch collects abundant visual and semantic representations from text spotting for multimodal feature fusion and conversely, provides higher-level semantic clues to contribute to the optimization of text spotting. Moreover, regarding the shortage of public benchmarks, we construct a fully-annotated dataset called EPHOIE (//github.com/HCIILAB/EPHOIE), which is the first Chinese benchmark for both text spotting and visual information extraction. EPHOIE consists of 1,494 images of examination paper head with complex layouts and background, including a total of 15,771 Chinese handwritten or printed text instances. Compared with the state-of-the-art methods, our VIES shows significant superior performance on the EPHOIE dataset and achieves a 9.01% F-score gain on the widely used SROIE dataset under the end-to-end scenario.
