Enabling machines to communicate like humans is a long-term goal of open-domain dialogue generation. To achieve this goal, more and more studies on dialogue generation focus on the key factor, emotion. The empathetic dialogue system aims to recognize user’s emotion and situation, then generates responses accordingly.Enabling machines to communicate like humans is a long-term goal of open-domain dialogue generation.

Noise-canceling headphones are a godsend for living and working in loud environments. They automatically identify background sounds and cancel them out for much-needed peace and quiet. However, typical noise-canceling fails to distinguish between unwanted background sounds and crucial information, leaving headphone users unaware of their surroundings.Noise-canceling headphones are a godsend for living and working in loud environments.

Oscar Wilde once said that sarcasm was the lowest form of wit, but the highest form of intelligence. Perhaps that is due to how difficult it is to use and understand. Sarcasm is notoriously tricky to convey through text—even in person, it can be easily misinterpreted. The subtle changes in tone that convey sarcasm often confuse computer algorithms as well, limiting virtual assistants and content analysis tools.Oscar Wilde once said that sarcasm was the lowest form of wit, but the highest form of intelligence.

Optimization algorithms are pivotal in machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) in general. For a long time, it has been widely believed that the design/configuration of optimization algorithms is a task that heavily relies on human intelligence and requires customized design for specific problems.Optimization algorithms are pivotal in machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) in general.

University of Waterloo researchers have developed a new method that can lead to significant energy savings in buildings. The team identified 28 major heat loss regions in a multi-unit residential building with the most severe ones being at wall intersections and around windows. A potential energy savings of 25% is expected if 70% of the discovered regions are fixed.University of Waterloo researchers have developed a new method that can lead to significant energy savings in buildings.
