Automatic joint damage quantification using computer vision and deep learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Joint raveled or spalled damage (henceforth called joint damage) can affect the safety and long-term performance of concrete pavements. It is important to assess and quantify the joint damage over time to assist in building action plans for maintenance, predicting maintenance costs, and maximize the concrete pavement service life.

Building Understanding: The Construction of Joint Attention in Preschool [PDF]
Issues in Applied Linguistics, 2013 A multi-layered discourse analysis of the interaction of three to five-year-old children in two preschools reveals a highly structured process occurring between the children and their caretakers to build and maintain joint attention. This process, serving to promote socialization into preschool, is constructed through language, gaze, intonation, and ...

Saturn: Efficient Multi-Large-Model Deep Learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 In this paper, we propose Saturn, a new data system to improve the efficiency of multi-large-model training (e.g., during model selection/hyperparameter optimization). We first identify three key interconnected systems challenges for users building large models in this setting -- parallelism technique selection, distribution of GPUs over jobs, and ...

Design Considerations for High-purity Heralded Single Photon Sources [PDF]
Phys. Rev. A 98, 053811 (2018), 2018 When building a parametric downconversion photon-pair source with spectrally separable photons, e.g. for making high-purity heralded single photons, two practical issues must be accounted for: the design of the experiment, and its characterization. To address experiment design, we study the impact on spectral separability of realistic (sech shaped and ...
