Just like living ecosystems, web services form a complex artificial system consisting of tags and the user-generated media associated with them, such as photographs, movies and web pages. When drawing an analogy between biological and artificial ecosystems, tags could...
Researchers at the University of Bucharest have recently developed a compositional model for complex hardware-software binding. Their model, outlined in a paper pre-published on arXiv, introduces the notion of a "virtual organism" (VO) that resides somewhere between...
Automated program repair (APR) is an emerging field of research that sets out to develop methods of fixing software bugs automatically, without intervention by human programmers. After development, APR techniques are typically evaluated on several benchmarks,...
Researchers at UC Davis have recently developed a new machine learning based tool to verify multimedia rumors online. Their paper, pre-published on arXiv, proposes cross-lingual and cross-platform features for rumor verification, which leverage the semantic similarity...
