Learned Indexes for a Google-scale Disk-based Database
Hussam Abu-Libdeh, Deniz Altınbüken, Alex Beutel +7
There is great excitement about learned index structures, but understandable skepticism about the practicality of a new method uprooting decades of research on B-Trees. In this pap…
CAT-Gen: Improving Robustness in NLP Models via Controlled Adversarial Text Generation
Tianlu Wang, Xuezhi Wang, Yao Qin +5
NLP models are shown to suffer from robustness issues, i.e., a model's prediction can be easily changed under small perturbations to the input. In this work, we present a Controlle…
A Model of Two Tales: Dual Transfer Learning Framework for Improved Long-tail Item Recommendation
Yin Zhang, Derek Zhiyuan Cheng, Tiansheng Yao +3
Highly skewed long-tail item distribution is very common in recommendation systems. It significantly hurts model performance on tail items. To improve tail-item recommendation, we…
Learning to Embed Categorical Features without Embedding Tables for Recommendation
Wang-Cheng Kang, Derek Zhiyuan Cheng, Tiansheng Yao +4
Embedding learning of categorical features (e.g. user/item IDs) is at the core of various recommendation models including matrix factorization and neural collaborative filtering. T…
Zero-Shot Heterogeneous Transfer Learning from Recommender Systems to Cold-Start Search Retrieval
Tao Wu, Ellie Ka-In Chio, Heng-Tze Cheng +15
Many recent advances in neural information retrieval models, which predict top-K items given a query, learn directly from a large training set of (query, item) pairs. However, they…
Beyond Point Estimate: Inferring Ensemble Prediction Variation from Neuron Activation Strength in Recommender Systems
Zhe Chen, Yuyan Wang, Dong Lin +4
Despite deep neural network (DNN)'s impressive prediction performance in various domains, it is well known now that a set of DNN models trained with the same model specification an…
