Virtual machine service threads can perform many tasks in parallel with program execution such as garbage collection, dynamic compilation, and profile collection and analysis. Har...
Many new Java runtime optimizations report relatively small, single-digit performance improvements. On modern virtual and actual hardware, however, the performance impact of an op...
We propose a novel language-independent approach for improving statistical machine translation for resource-poor languages by exploiting their similarity to resource-rich ones. Mo...
We propose several techniques for improving statistical machine translation between closely-related languages with scarce resources. We use character-level translation trained on ...
We propose to model relative attributes1 that capture the relationships between images and objects in terms of human-nameable visual properties. For example, the models can captur...
