      In today's IoT smart environments, dozens of MCU-based connected device types exist such as HVAC controllers, smart meters, smoke detectors, etc. The security conditions for these essential IoT devices remain unsatisfactory ...
    • Enhancing multiple-choice question answering with causal knowledge 

      Dalal, Dhairya; Arcan, Mihael; Buitelaar, Paul (Association for Computational Linguistics, 2021-06-10)
      The task of causal question answering aims to reason about causes and effects over a provided real or hypothetical premise. Recent approaches have converged on using transformer-based language models to solve question ...
    • Multilingual multimodal machine translation for Dravidian languages utilizing phonetic transcription 

      Chakravarthi, Bharathi Raja; Priyadharshini, Ruba; Stearns, Bernardo; Jayapal, Arun; Sridevy, S.; Arcan, Mihael; Zarrouk, Manel; McCrae, John P. (European Association for Machine Translation, 2019-08-19)
      Multimodal machine translation is the task of translating from a source text into the target language using information from other modalities. Existing multimodal datasets have been restricted to only highly resourced ...
