Advances in Computer Algebra and Analysis

Computer Algebra Systems (CAS), with their unique ability to analyze and solve mathematical problems, are gathering new communities of users, who challenge those software systems with more and more complex tasks. It is necessary, therefore, that the core engines of CAS to implement stateof- the-art algorithms. This proposal capitalizes on the research conducted by academic […]

Post-Editing Automatic Speech Recognition Error Correction

This research tackles the problem of correcting errors produced by automatic speech recognition systems when transcribing calls by customers to call centers. These transcripts are increasingly analyzed using automated natural language processing tools, however the quality of this analysis is highly dependent on the quality of the transcription. An automatic speech recognition (ASR) system is […]

Realistic and High-Performance Rendering Renewal

The goal is to investigate the realistic appearance models for complex reflectance properties, modeling reflectance, masking and inter-reflection at many scales. In the end, comparison and basis-space representation will be leveraged to develop an interactive rendering application for pre-visualization and in-game portrayal of complex materials.

Learning abstract causes from text

Consider a question that a policymaker might have: which economic factors have causal effects on the median housing price in a region? Answering this question requires gathering historical observations of house prices and economic factors of interest and performing statistical analysis to asses causal effects. But what if the policymaker does not exactly know which […]

Leveraging Stacks of Predictors for Efficient Inference and Uncertainty Estimation

Given the ever growing neural networks being developed and the abundant empirical evidence that model/data scale play an important role in enabling high-quality models of data, inference cost becomes a bottleneck to the deployment of state-of-the-art automated predictors. To address that, this research project aims to develop algorithms that can predict outcomes by combining predictions […]
