KPConvX: Modernizing Kernel Point Convolution with Kernel Attention

In the field of deep point cloud understanding, KPConv is a unique architecture that uses kernel points to locate convolutional weights in space, instead of relying on Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) encodings. While it initially achieved success, it has since been surpassed by recent MLP networks that employ updated designs and training strategies. Building upon the …

Data protection strategy: Key components and best practices

Virtually every organization recognizes the power of data to enhance customer and employee experiences and drive better business decisions. Yet, as data becomes more valuable, it’s also becoming harder to protect. Companies continue to create more attack surfaces with hybrid models, scattering critical data across cloud, third-party and on-premises locations, while threat actors constantly devise new …

Handle Long Pause Between Bot Responses Using Dialogflow

Why does audio need to be included in interactions between users and bots? In a conversational AI-enabled voice bot, in case of obtaining data from a database or requesting information from LLM models like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or LLaMA, there’s inevitably a delay while waiting for updates or responses, often leading to an awkward pause in …

Scientists find ChatGPT is inaccurate when answering computer programming questions

A team of computer scientists at Purdue University has found that the popular LLM, ChatGPT, is wildly inaccurate when responding to computer programming questions. In their paper published as part of the Proceedings of the CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, the group describes how they pulled questions from the StackOverflow website and …
