Motivated by applications to property testing in the online-erasure model of Kalemaj, Raskhodnikova, and Varma (ITCS 2022 and Theory of Computing 2023), we define and analyze {\em semi-sample-based te...
Quantifying the detection efficiency of buoy-based sonar and optimizing deployment strategies in complex marine environments remain significant challenges. This study proposes a transceiver depth opti...
Quantifying the ocean soundscape is crucial for ocean-based seismoacoustic monitoring; it sets a baseline for the kinds and sizes of signals that can be detected above the background noise. As sea ice...
Maritime Spatial Planning is a pivotal tool for the sustainable development of coastal areas and the implementation of the blue economy. It requires a spatially explicit environmental risk assessment,...
Passive acoustic monitoring is a non-invasive tool widely used to assess marine biodiversity and ecosystem dynamics. This study characterizes the soundscape of a sandy-bottom habitat in a shallow coas...
Audio-Visual Intelligence (AVI) has emerged as a central frontier in artificial intelligence, bridging auditory and visual modalities to enable machines that can perceive, generate, and interact in th...
We present MulTTiPop, a dataset of pop music segments and their associated multitrack MIDI recordings for the evaluation of automatic music transcription models. MulTTiPop contains 572 segments of pop...
During the spring of 2021, a coordinated multi-vessel effort was organized to study physical oceanography, marine geology and biology, and acoustics on the northeast United States continental shelf, a...
Increasing commercial shipping in Eclipse Sound, Nunavut, has reshaped low-frequency ocean soundscapes, necessitating tools that quantify vessel noise contributions and mitigation potential. Here, we ...
Current automated pipelines for audio-visual Question Answering (QA) generally adopt a ``video-caption-QA'' paradigm. However, these methods typically segment videos into short clips and generate sepa...
The effectiveness of passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) for studying marine biodiversity highly relies on comprehensive libraries of species-specific sounds. While sound production is well-documented i...
The modern manufacturing industry is investing in new technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), big data analytics, cloud computing and cybersecurity to cope with system complexity, increase ...
Bottom trawl fisheries are recognized to be a global threat to marine biodiversity and a dominant driver of sea floor ecosystem change. Although the mechanism of trawling impact on benthic life is mor...
Aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preferences in federated learning (FL) is challenging due to decentralized, privacy-sensitive, and highly non-IID preference data. Direct Preference Op...
Persistent memory for an LLM agent is a write-heavy substrate: every belief update is a versioned write, and a new claim may contradict a stored one. Production systems use four resolution heuristics ...
JDBC remains a key technology for database access in Java applications. Since the database dictionary and the Java type system have distinct scopes, developers inevitably need to deal with bugs in SQL...
World models enable a predictive substrate for planning and action, yet existing formulations merely answer a physical question: what/where it is, and how will it evolve. Human behavior, however, is d...
Tremendous progress in visual scene generation now turns a single image into an explorable 3D world, yet immersion remains incomplete without sound. We introduce Image2AVScene, the task of generating ...
