Recommender systems (RSs) have been playing an increasingly important role for informed consumption, services, and decision-making in the overloaded information era digitized economy. In recent years, session-based recommender (SBRSs) emerged as a new paradigm of RSs. Different from other RSs such content-based collaborative filtering-based that usually model long-term yet static user preferenc...

The egocentric action recognition EAR field has recently increased its popularity due to the affordable and lightweight wearable cameras available nowadays such as GoPro similars. Therefore, amount of data generated increased, triggering interest in understanding videos. More specifically, actions videos gained challenge that it poses: wild movement camera lack context make hard recognise with ...

Recent researches on robotics have shown significant improvement, spanning from algorithms, mechanics to hardware architectures. Robotics, including manipulators, legged robots, drones, and autonomous vehicles, are now widely applied in diverse scenarios. However, the high computation data complexity of robotic algorithms pose great challenges its applications. On one hand, CPU platform is flex...

Inspired by the success of transformer-based pre-training methods on natural language tasks and further computer vision tasks, researchers have started to apply transformer video processing. This survey aims provide a comprehensive overview for Video-Language learning. We first briefly introduce structure as background knowledge, including attention mechanism, position encoding etc. then descri...

In computer security, the number of malware threats is increasing and causing damage to systems for individuals or organizations, necessitating a new detection technique capable detecting variant more efficiently than traditional anti-malware methods. Traditional software cannot detect variants, conventional techniques such as static analysis, dynamic hybrid analysis are time-consuming rely on ...

An important parameter that defines the effectiveness and efficiency of any optical or infrared sky survey is the atmospheric characteristics of the observing site. Of prime importance is the sky spectral brightness, which determines the sensitivities and the observing time required to complete a particular survey. This paper presents observations of the near-infrared sky spectral brightness me...

IC ER SPTIVES On contentious issues such as gun control, where advocacy groups on both sides claim to have the weight of public opinion behind them, polling can help clarify what Americans really think. Three decades of polling have painted a clear picture of public opinion about gun control. These polls show that public support for the regulation of firearms is strong, deep, and widespread. La...
