Cross-modal Fusion Transformer for Integrating Retrieved Knowledge into Video Caption Generation
https://doi.org/10.1145/3770855.3818170
[ "Karina Abubakirova", "Waseem Ullah", "Latif U. Khan", "Mohsen Guizani" ]
In recent years, long-form video captioning has been an important task for indexing, accessibility, and downstream video analytics. However, it becomes challenging when videos are untrimmed and extend over minutes or hours. In these settings, visual evidence is often incomplete: objects are occluded, viewpoints shift, ...

NiWo: An Augmentation Framework to Enhance ML Performance and Interpretability for Tabular Data with Class Imbalance
https://doi.org/10.1145/3770855.3817894
[ "Asif Ahmed", "Sakhawat Hossain Saimon", "Jianhua Ruan", "Ke Yang" ]
Various data augmentation methods have been proposed to address class imbalance in Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence tasks across multiple data modalities.

[ "David Arbour", "Eli Ben-Michael", "Avi Feller", "Apoorva Lal", "Lo-Hua Yuan" ]
Generative AI and large language models can produce realistic predictions of human behavior from rich, unstructured inputs with little to no task-specific training data. Recent work uses these ''digital twin'' predictions to supplement human responses in surveys and experiments. We study the special case of using AI-ge...

Realistic Counterfactual Explanations via Denial Constraints
https://doi.org/10.1145/3770855.3817712
[ "Avia Asael", "Daniel Deutch", "Nave Frost", "Amir Gilad" ]
In the realm of Explainable AI, classification results are often explained via counterfactuals (CFs for short), which are (ideally small) perturbations to an instance that lead to a change of classification label. Such CFs may serve as explanations for the prediction, pinpointing the features that were important. Exist...

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) profiles large numbers of cells but loses spatial context, whereas spatial transcriptomics (ST) preserves partial spatial structure at lower resolution. Most existing integration methods either deconvolve spot mixtures or map cells onto a measured spot lattice, which ties reconstr...

We propose conditional PED-ANOVA (condPED-ANOVA), a principled framework for estimating hyperparameter importance (HPI) in conditional search spaces, where the presence or domain of a hyperparameter can depend on other hyperparameters. Although the original PED-ANOVA provides a fast and efficient way to estimate HPI wi...

AFLiP: An Access-Recomputation Decoupling Framework for Efficient and Structure-Preserving GNN-based Link Prediction
https://doi.org/10.1145/3770855.3817973
[ "Jeongmin Bae", "Min-Soo Kim" ]
Many GNN-based link prediction models use a shared message-passing encoder to amortize node encoding across edges. However, in practice, neighborhood expansion makes the edge-level mini-batches approach near full-graph computation, weakening this benefit. Existing scalable techniques enable efficient mini-batch trainin...

📦 数据集内容 · What's in this dataset

路径 Path 子集 Subset 格式 Format 说明 Description
cache/cache.jsonl.gz papers(默认 / default) gzip-compressed JSON Lines (UTF-8) 每行一篇论文 · One paper per line; one JSON object per line
cache/abstract_backfill_progress.jsonl.gz abstract_backfill_progress gzip-compressed JSON Lines (UTF-8) 摘要回填流水线的进度/断点记录,不是论文元数据;仅供工作流恢复使用 · Append-only progress log of the abstract-backfill pipeline (not paper records); used by the workflow to resume between runs

Hugging Face 会自动为 cache.jsonl.gz 生成 Parquet 视图,也可直接用 datasets.load_dataset(...) 读取,无需手动解压。Hugging Face also exposes an auto-generated Parquet view, so datasets.load_dataset(...) works out of the box.

💡 Dataset Viewer 与 datasets.load_dataset("youngfish42/PaperVault") 默认展示/加载的都是 papers 子集(即 cache/cache.jsonl.gz)。如需查看回填进度,请在 Viewer 顶部下拉框切换到 abstract_backfill_progress,或调用 load_dataset("youngfish42/PaperVault", name="abstract_backfill_progress")。The Dataset Viewer and datasets.load_dataset("youngfish42/PaperVault") both default to the papers subset (cache/cache.jsonl.gz). To inspect backfill progress, switch the Viewer's subset dropdown to abstract_backfill_progress or call load_dataset("youngfish42/PaperVault", name="abstract_backfill_progress").

📐 字段 Schema

Field 字段 Type 类型 Notes 说明
paper_name string 论文标题(已归一化)· Normalised paper title
paper_authors list[string] 作者列表,按原始顺序 · Author names in order
paper_url string 论文在原始平台的链接(PDF 或落地页)· Canonical URL on the venue's site (PDF or landing page)
paper_abstract string 摘要;未回填时为空字符串 · Abstract; may be empty when not yet backfilled
paper_code string 从摘要中抽取出的 GitHub 仓库 URL;"#" 是「未发现代码链接」的占位符 · GitHub repository URL extracted from the abstract; "#" is the sentinel for "no code link discovered"
conf string 会议+年份标识,如 ACL2024、NIPS2023、CVPR2025;去掉末尾四位数字即可得到会议系列。注意 NeurIPS Proceedings 沿用历史命名 NIPS{year}。Venue + year identifier (e.g. ACL2024, NIPS2023, CVPR2025). Strip the trailing 4-digit year to recover the venue series. Note that NeurIPS Proceedings entries use the historical name NIPS{year}.

缺失字段请按空字符串处理。Treat missing fields as empty strings.


⬇️ 获取方式 · How to download

下面三种方式任选其一即可,无需克隆 GitHub 仓库。Pick any one of the three options below — no GitHub clone is required.

方式 A · Option A — huggingface_hub(推荐 / recommended)

from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
import gzip, json

path = hf_hub_download(
    repo_id="youngfish42/PaperVault",
    filename="cache/cache.jsonl.gz",
    repo_type="dataset",
)

with gzip.open(path, "rt", encoding="utf-8") as f:
    for line in f:
        record = json.loads(line)
        # 在这里处理一条记录 · do something with the record

方式 B · Option B — datasets

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("youngfish42/PaperVault")
print(ds[next(iter(ds))][0])

数据集只有一个默认 split(非 ML 训练集),不要传 split="train"。Single default split — do not pass split="train".

方式 C · Option C — huggingface-cli / 直接 HTTPS · Plain HTTPS

huggingface-cli download youngfish42/PaperVault \
    cache/cache.jsonl.gz --repo-type dataset --local-dir ./data

💡 文件压缩后约 120 MB(会随数据持续增长),解压后是 GB 级 JSONL 流,请按行流式读取,不要整体载入内存。The file is ~120 MB compressed (and growing) and decompresses to a multi-GB JSONL stream. Stream it line-by-line rather than loading the whole thing into memory.


🔁 更新节奏 · Update cadence

数据集由三个 GitHub Actions 工作流负责重建并推送到本 Hub 仓库 / The dataset is rebuilt and pushed to this Hub repo by three GitHub Actions workflows:

工作流 Workflow 触发节奏 Schedule 推送的内容 What it pushes
collect_papers 每月 15 号 16:00 UTC + 手动触发 · 15th of every month at 16:00 UTC + workflow_dispatch 增量抓取新发现的会议/年份组合 · Incremental crawl of newly-discovered conference/year combinations
backfill_abstracts 每月 1 号 00:00 UTC + 手动触发 · 1st of every month at 00:00 UTC + workflow_dispatch 为已有论文回填 paper_abstract · Adds paper_abstract for papers that were collected without one
update_readme 仅手动触发 (workflow_dispatch) · Manual only (workflow_dispatch) 默认仅刷新 README 与统计;当输入参数 mode=force 时执行全量重建 · Refreshes the README and statistics by default; performs a full rebuild only when invoked with mode=force

每次推送都使用 Hugging Face 的 parent_commit 乐观锁机制,避免并发覆盖。Each push uses Hugging Face's parent_commit optimistic-lock mechanism to avoid silently overwriting concurrent updates.
