Few-Shot Out of Domain Intent Detection with Covariance Corrected Mahalanobis Distance
Jayasimha Talur, Oleg Smirnov, Paul Missault
Conversational agents like chatbots and voice assistants are trained to understand and respond to user intents. On encountering an utterance with an intent different from the ones…
Be Wary of Your Time Series Preprocessing
Sofiane Ennadir, Tianze Wang, Oleg Smirnov +2
Normalization and scaling are fundamental preprocessing steps in time series modeling, yet their role in Transformer-based models remains underexplored from a theoretical perspecti…
Frequency Matters: When Time Series Foundation Models Fail Under Spectral Shift
Tianze Wang, Sofiane Ennadir, John Pertoft +7
Time series foundation models (TSFMs) have shown strong results on public benchmarks, prompting comparisons to a "BERT moment" for time series. Their effectiveness in industrial se…
Enhancing Graph Classification Robustness with Singular Pooling
Sofiane Ennadir, Oleg Smirnov, Yassine Abbahaddou +2
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have achieved strong performance across a range of graph representation learning tasks, yet their adversarial robustness in graph classification remain…
Pool Me Wisely: On the Effect of Pooling in Transformer-Based Models
Sofiane Ennadir, Levente Zólyomi, Oleg Smirnov +4
Transformer models have become the dominant backbone for sequence modeling, leveraging self-attention to produce contextualized token representations. These are typically aggregate…
Are We Really Measuring Progress? Transferring Insights from Evaluating Recommender Systems to Temporal Link Prediction
Filip Cornell, Oleg Smirnov, Gabriela Zarzar Gandler +1
Recent work has questioned the reliability of graph learning benchmarks, citing concerns around task design, methodological rigor, and data suitability. In this extended abstract,…
