Human-Computer Interaction and Visualization
Rethinking Audio-Based Human-Computer Interaction Machines that can respond to human speech with equally expressive and natural audio have become a major goal in intelligent interaction systems. Audio-language modeling extends this vision by combining speech recognition, natural language understanding, and audio generation. Rather than relying on text conversions, models in this space aim to understand and…
Navigating the dense urban canyons of cities like San Francisco or New York can be a nightmare for GPS systems. The towering skyscrapers block and reflect satellite signals, leading to location errors of tens of meters. For you and me, that might mean a missed turn. But for an autonomous vehicle or a delivery robot,…
The Inefficiency of Static Chain-of-Thought Reasoning in LRMs Recent LRMs achieve top performance by using detailed CoT reasoning to solve complex tasks. However, many simple tasks they handle could be solved by smaller models with fewer tokens, making such elaborate reasoning unnecessary. This echoes human thinking, where we use fast, intuitive responses for easy problems…
