Rapport plays an important role during communication because it can help people understand each others feelings or ideas and leads to a smooth communication. Computational rapport model has been proposed based on theory in previous work. But there lacks solid verification. In this paper, we apply structural equation model (SEM) to the theoretical model on both dyads of friend and stranger. The results indicate some unfavorable paths. Based on the results and more literature, we modify the original model to integrate more nonverbal behaviors, including gaze and smile. Fit indices and other examination show the goodness of our new models, which can give us more insight into rapport management during conversation.

Animated transitions help viewers understand changes between related visualizations. To clearly present the underlying relations between statistical charts, animation authors need to have a high level of expertise and a considerable amount of time to describe the relations with reasonable animation stages. We present AniVis, an automated approach for generating animated transitions to demonstrate the changes between two statistical charts. AniVis models each statistical chart into a tree-based structure. Given an input chart pair, the differences of data and visual properties of the chart pair are formalized as tree edit operations. The edit operations can be mapped to atomic transition units. Through this approach, the animated transition between two charts can be expressed as a set of transition units. Then, we conduct a formative study to understand peoples preferences for animation sequences. Based on the study, we propose a set of principles and a sequence composition algorithm to compose the transition units into a meaningful animation sequence. Finally, we synthesize these units together to deliver a smooth and intuitive animated transition between charts. To test our approach, we present a prototype system and its generated results to illustrate the usage of our framework. We perform a comparative study to assess the transition sequence derived from the tree model. We further collect qualitative feedback to evaluate the effectiveness and usefulness of our method.

In this paper, we propose a general framework for tensor singular value decomposition (tensor SVD), which focuses on the methodology and theory for extracting the hidden low-rank structure from high-dimensional tensor data. Comprehensive results are developed on both the statistical and computational limits for tensor SVD. This problem exhibits three different phases according to the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). In particular, with strong SNR, we show that the classical higher-order orthogonal iteration achieves the minimax optimal rate of convergence in estimation; with weak SNR, the information-theoretical lower bound implies that it is impossible to have consistent estimation in general; with moderate SNR, we show that the non-convex maximum likelihood estimation provides optimal solution, but with NP-hard computational cost; moreover, under the hardness hypothesis of hypergraphic planted clique detection, there are no polynomial-time algorithms performing consistently in general.
Quantum machine learning algorithms could provide significant speed-ups over their classical counterparts; however, whether they could also achieve good generalization remains unclear. Recently, two quantum perceptron models which give a quadratic improvement over the classical perceptron algorithm using Grovers search have been proposed by Wiebe et al. arXiv:1602.04799 . While the first model reduces the complexity with respect to the size of the training set, the second one improves the bound on the number of mistakes made by the perceptron. In this paper, we introduce a hybrid quantum-classical perceptron algorithm with lower complexity and better generalization ability than the classical perceptron. We show a quadratic improvement over the classical perceptron in both the number of samples and the margin of the data. We derive a bound on the expected error of the hypothesis returned by our algorithm, which compares favorably to the one obtained with the classical online perceptron. We use numerical experiments to illustrate the trade-off between computational complexity and statistical accuracy in quantum perceptron learning and discuss some of the key practical issues surrounding the implementation of quantum perceptron models into near-term quantum devices, whose practical implementation represents a serious challenge due to inherent noise. However, the potential benefits make correcting this worthwhile.
Computational notebooks allow data scientists to express their ideas through a combination of code and documentation. However, data scientists often pay attention only to the code, and neglect creating or updating their documentation during quick iterations, which leads to challenges in sharing their notebooks with others and future selves. Inspired by human documentation practices from analyzing 80 highly-voted Kaggle notebooks, we design and implement Themisto, an automated documentation generation system to explore the Human-AI Collaboration opportunity in the code documentation scenario. Themisto facilitates the creation of different types of documentation via three approaches: a deep-learning-based approach to generate documentation for source code (fully automated), a query-based approach to retrieve the online API documentation for source code (fully automated), and a user prompt approach to motivate users to write more documentation (semi-automated). We evaluated Themisto in a within-subjects experiment with 24 data science practitioners, and found that automated documentation generation techniques reduced the time for writing documentation, reminded participants to document code they would have ignored, and improved participants satisfaction with their computational notebook.
Advertisements (ads) often include strongly emotional content to leave a lasting impression on the viewer. This work (i) compiles an affective ad dataset capable of evoking coherent emotions across users, as determined from the affective opinions of five experts and 14 annotators; (ii) explores the efficacy of convolutional neural network (CNN) features for encoding emotions, and observes that CNN features outperform low-level audio-visual emotion descriptors upon extensive experimentation; and (iii) demonstrates how enhanced affect prediction facilitates computational advertising, and leads to better viewing experience while watching an online video stream embedded with ads based on a study involving 17 users. We model ad emotions based on subjective human opinions as well as objective multimodal features, and show how effectively modeling ad emotions can positively impact a real-life application.
