Semantic-aware blocking for entity resolution [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a semantic-aware blocking framework for entity resolution (ER). The proposed framework is built using locality-sensitive hashing (LSH) techniques, which efficiently unifies both textual and semantic features into an ER blocking ...

Enhancing blind video quality assessment with rich quality-aware features
In this paper, we present a simple but effective method to enhance blind video quality assessment (BVQA) models for social media videos. Motivated by previous researches that leverage pre-trained features extracted from various computer vision models as the feature representation for BVQA, we further explore rich quality-aware features from pre-trained
