AutoFocus: Efficient Multi-Scale Inference [PDF]

open access: yes2019 IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV), 2019
This paper describes AutoFocus, an efficient multi-scale inference algorithm for deep-learning based object detectors. Instead of processing an entire image pyramid, AutoFocus adopts a coarse to fine approach and only processes regions which are likely to contain small objects at finer scales.

Efficient Exploration at Scale

open access: yesCoRR
We develop an online learning algorithm that dramatically improves the data efficiency of reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF). Our algorithm incrementally updates reward and language models as choice data is received. The reward model is fit to the choice data, while the language model is updated by a variation of reinforce, with ...

Scale-Out Processors & Energy Efficiency

open access: yesCoRR, 2018
Scale-out workloads like media streaming or Web search serve millions of users and operate on a massive amount of data, and hence, require enormous computational power. As the number of users is increasing and the size of data is expanding, even more computational power is necessary for powering up such workloads. Data centers with thousands of servers
