CrowdMAC: Masked Crowd Density Completion for Robust Crowd Density Forecasting

arXiv:2407.14725v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A crowd density forecasting task aims to predict how the crowd density map will change in the future from observed past crowd density maps. However, the past crowd density maps are often incomplete due to the miss-detection of pedestrians, and it is crucial to develop a robust crowd density forecasting model against the miss-detection. This paper presents a MAsked crowd density Completion framework for crowd density forecasting (CrowdMAC), which is simultaneously trained to forecast future crowd density maps from partially masked past crowd density maps (i.e., forecasting maps from past maps with miss-detection) while reconstructing…

Text Style Transfer: An Introductory Overview

[Submitted on 20 Jul 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled Text Style Transfer: An Introductory Overview, by Sourabrata Mukherjee and Ondrej Duv{s}ek View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Text Style Transfer (TST) is a pivotal task in natural language generation to manipulate text style attributes while preserving style-independent content. The attributes targeted in TST can vary widely, including politeness, authorship, mitigation of offensive language, modification of feelings, and adjustment of text formality. TST has become a widely researched topic with substantial advancements in recent years. This paper provides an introductory overview of TST, addressing its challenges, existing approaches, datasets, evaluation…

Data Poisoning: An Overlooked Threat to Power Grid Resilience

Data Poisoning: An Overlooked Threat to Power Grid Resilience

arXiv:2407.14684v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As the complexities of Dynamic Data Driven Applications Systems increase, preserving their resilience becomes more challenging. For instance, maintaining power grid resilience is becoming increasingly complicated due to the growing number of stochastic variables (such as renewable outputs) and extreme weather events that add uncertainty to the grid. Current optimization methods have struggled to accommodate this rise in complexity. This has fueled the growing interest in data-driven methods used to operate the grid, leading to more vulnerability to cyberattacks. One such disruption that is commonly discussed is the adversarial disruption, where the intruder attempts to…

Desenvolvimento Orientado a SOLID

Desenvolvimento Orientado a SOLID

No desenvolvimento de software, a manutenção, extensão e a flexibilidade do código são importantes para o sucesso a longo prazo de um projeto. Os princípios SOLID foram formulados para orientar os desenvolvedores na criação de código que seja mais fácil de entender, modificar e estender. Neste artigo, vamos falar de cada um dos cinco princípios SOLID e como usar com exemplos práticos em Java. 1. Single Responsibility Principle (Princípio da Responsabilidade Única) O Princípio da Responsabilidade Única (SRP) estabelece que uma classe deve ter apenas uma razão para mudar, ou seja, deve ter uma única responsabilidade dentro do sistema. //…

Parents say Delta stranded their kids while they were flying alone

Parents say Delta stranded their kids while they were flying alone

Some parents say they were left scrambling to help their stranded kids after Delta Air Lines suddenly changed its policies as it grapples with extended delays and cancellations that stretched into the fourth day."It was about three hours of sheer panic," one of the parents, Cecilia Stone, told Business Insider.Delta has axed more than 5,000 flights in the past five days, and Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg announced on X that the agency had opened an investigation into the airline to ensure it was "taking care of its passengers."After the outage, Delta barred unaccompanied minors from traveling, a move its…

Automatic Real-word Error Correction in Persian Text

Automatic Real-word Error Correction in Persian Text

[Submitted on 20 Jul 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled Automatic Real-word Error Correction in Persian Text, by Seyed Mohammad Sadegh Dashti and 2 other authors View PDF Abstract:Automatic spelling correction stands as a pivotal challenge within the ambit of natural language processing (NLP), demanding nuanced solutions. Traditional spelling correction techniques are typically only capable of detecting and correcting non-word errors, such as typos and misspellings. However, context-sensitive errors, also known as real-word errors, are more challenging to detect because they are valid words that are used incorrectly in a given context. The Persian language, characterized by its…
