|abstract = Overlapping cameras offer exciting opportunities to view a scene from different angles, allowing for more advanced, comprehensive and robust analysis. However, existing video analytics systems for multi-camera streams are mostly limited to (i) per-camera processing and aggregation and (ii) workload-agnostic centralized processing architectures. In this paper, we present Argus, a distributed video analytics system with cross-camera collaboration on smart cameras. We identify multi-camera, multi-target tracking as the primary task of multi-camera video analytics and develop a novel technique that avoids redundant, processing-heavy identification tasks by leveraging object-wise spatio-temporal association in the overlapping fields of view across multiple cameras. We further develop a set of techniques to perform these operations across distributed cameras without cloud support at low latency by (i) dynamically ordering the camera and object inspection sequence and (ii) flexibly distributing the workload across smart cameras, taking into account network transmission and heterogeneous computational capacities. Evaluation of three real-world overlapping camera datasets with two Nvidia Jetson devices shows that Argus reduces the number of object identifications and end-to-end latency by up to 7.13× and 2.19× (4.86× and 1.60× compared to the state-of-the-art), while achieving comparable tracking quality.
|abstract = LoRa technology promises to enable Internet of Things applications over large geographical areas. However, its performance is often hampered by poor channel quality in urban environments, where blockage and multipath effects are prevalent. Our study uncovers that a slight shift in the position or attitude of the receiving antenna can substantially improve the received signal quality. This phenomenon can be attributed to the rich multipath characteristics of wireless signal propagation in urban environments, wherein even small antenna movement can alter the dominant signal path or reduce the polarization angular difference between transceivers. Leveraging these key observations, we propose and implement MoLoRa, an intelligent mobile antenna system designed to enhance LoRa packet reception. At its core, MoLoRa represents the position and attitude of an antenna as a state and employs a statistical optimization method to search for states that offer optimal signal quality efficiently. Through extensive evaluation, we demonstrate that MoLoRa achieves a maximum Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) gain of 13 dB in a few attempts, enabling formerly problematic blind spots to reconnect and strengthening links for other nodes.

|abstract = We present FarfetchFusion, a fully mobile live 3D telepresence system. Enabling mobile live telepresence is a challenging problem as it requires i) realistic reconstruction of the user and ii) high responsiveness for immersive experience. We first thoroughly analyze the live 3D telepresence pipeline and identify three critical challenges: i) 3D data streaming latency and compression complexity, ii) computational complexity of volumetric fusion-based 3D reconstruction, and iii) inconsistent reconstruction quality due to sparsity of mobile 3D sensors. To tackle the challenges, we propose a disentangled fusion approach, which separates invariant regions and dynamically changing regions with our low-complexity spatio-temporal alignment technique, topology anchoring. We then design and implement an end-to-end system, which achieves realistic reconstruction quality comparable to existing server-based solutions while meeting the real-time performance requirements (<100 ms end-to-end latency, 30 fps throughput, <16 ms motion-to-photon latency) solely relying on mobile computation capability.
|abstract =Large language models (LLMs) achieve superior performance in generative tasks. However, due to the natural gap between language model generation and structured information extraction in three dimensions: task type, output format, and modeling granularity, they often fall short in structured information extraction, a crucial capability for effective data utilization on the web. In this paper, we define the generation process of the language model as the controllable state transition, aligning the generation and extraction processes to ensure the integrity of the output structure and adapt to the goals of the information extraction task. Furthermore, we propose the Structure2Text decider to help the language model understand the fine-grained extraction information, which converts the structured output into natural language and makes state decisions, thereby focusing on the task-specific information kernels, and alleviating language model hallucinations and incorrect content generation. We conduct extensive experiments and detailed analyses on myriad information extraction tasks, including named entity recognition, relation extraction, and event argument extraction. Our method not only achieves significant performance improvements but also considerably enhances the model's capability to generate precise and relevant content, making the extracted content easy to parse.

    Abstract: LoRa technology promises to enable Internet of Things applications over large geographical areas.
