Wide-area analytics with multiple resources

2018

Running data-parallel jobs across geo-distributed sites has emerged as a promising direction due to the growing need for geo-distributed cluster deployment. A key difference between geo-distributed and intra-cluster jobs is the heterogeneous (and often constrained) …

Evolutionary Multiobjective Change Detection via Self-paced Learning and Fuzzy Clustering

2019

Fuzzy clustering algorithm based on multiobjective optimization can achieve accurate and comprehensive clustering results. However, the estimation of objective values for this multiobjective optimization problem (MOP) might be expensive. Offspring's selection driven by simple evaluation …

Hyper-parameter Tuning of Federated Learning Based on Particle Swarm Optimization

2021

The learning task of federated learning (FL) is solved by a federation of a center server and individual clients. Contrary to traditional deep learning models, federated learning consists of two parts, the global model and …

Learning to Rewrite Prompts for Personalized Text Generation

2024

Facilitated by large language models (LLMs), personalized text generation has become a rapidly growing research direction. Most existing studies focus on designing specialized models for a particular domain, or they require fine-tuning the LLMs to …

RefXVC: Cross-Lingual Voice Conversion With Enhanced Reference Leveraging

2024 · IEEE/ACM Transactions on Audio Speech and Language Processing

This paper proposes RefXVC, a method for cross-lingual voice conversion (XVC) that leverages reference information to improve conversion performance. Previous XVC works generally take an average speaker embedding to condition the speaker identity, which does …
