Recently advancements in sequence-to-sequence neural network architectures have led to an improved natural language understanding. When building a neural network-based Natural Language Understanding component, one main challenge is to collect enough training data. The generation of a synthetic dataset is an inexpensive...

In distributed computing frameworks like MapReduce, Spark, and Dyrad, a coflow is a set of flows transferring data between two stages of a job. The job cannot start its next stage unless all flows in the coflow finish. To improve the execution performance of such a job, it is crucial to reduce the completion time of a ...
Flow schedulers. Much research work has also been performed on reducing the average flow completion time @cite_1 @cite_5 @cite_10 @cite_11 @cite_16 @cite_4 .

Understanding audio-visual content and the ability to have an informative conversation about it have both been challenging areas for intelligent systems.

In software engineering, impact analysis consists in predicting the software elements (e.g. modules, classes, methods) potentially impacted by a change in the source code. Impact analysis is required to optimize the testing effort. In this paper, we propose a framework to predict error propagation. Based on 10 open-sou...
A classical paper by Moritoni and Winkler @cite_26 also studies error propagation but they do it with the goal of having a perfect aproximation. By contrast, we perform approximations with the goal of exploring other trade-offs between precision and recall for impact prediction. Their work is more theoretical in essenc...

Michael and Jones @cite_31 alter variables during the program's execution in order to study how this affects ( perturbates'' in their phrasing) the software. They focus on data-state perturbation, where we have a more global look of the software. Considering only variable perturbation does not take into consideration a...

Binkley al @cite_6 @cite_18 propose observation-based slicing ( ORBS). They propose to slice a piece of software in a delete--execute--observe'' paradigm. In this paradigm, the effects of a change are observed after executing the code ( by running test cases). This paradigm is comparable to our approach where we mutate...

Ren al @cite_15 propose a tool entitled Chianti for change impact prediction as an Eclipse plug-in.

In an increasing number of domains it has been demonstrated that deep learning models can be trained using relatively large batch sizes without sacrificing data efficiency. However the limits of this massive data parallelism seem to differ from domain to domain, ranging from batches of tens of thousands in ImageNet to ...
Recent papers have probed the limits of large batch training empirically, especially for ImageNet @cite_24 @cite_26 @cite_9 , in some cases using layer-wise adaptive learning-rates @cite_21 .
