Syntax-aware Hybrid prompt model for Few-shot multi-modal sentiment analysis

Multimodal Sentiment Analysis (MSA) has been a popular topic in natural language processing nowadays, at both sentence and aspect level. However, the existing approaches almost require large-size labeled datasets, which bring about large consumption of time and resources. Therefore, it is practical to explore the method for few-shot sentiment analysis in cross-modalities. Previous works generally execute on textual modality, using the prompt-based methods, mainly two types: hand-crafted prompts and learnable prompts. The existing approach in few-shot multi-modality sentiment analysis task has utilized both methods, separately. We further design a hybrid pattern that can combine one or more fixed hand-crafted prompts and learnable prompts and utilize the attention mechanisms to optimize the prompt encoder. The experiments on both sentence-level and aspect-level datasets prove that we get a significant outperformance.

Cracking In-Memory Database Index A Case Study for Adaptive Radix Tree Index

Indexes provide a method to access data in databases quickly. It can improve the response speed of subsequent queries by building a complete index in advance. However, it also leads to a huge overhead of the continuous updating during creating the index. An in-memory database usually has a higher query processing performance than disk databases and is more suitable for real-time query processing. Therefore, there is an urgent need to reduce the index creation and update cost for in-memory databases. Database cracking technology is currently recognized as an effective method to reduce the index initialization time. However, conventional cracking algorithms are focused on simple column data structure rather than those complex index structure for in-memory databases. In order to show the feasibility of in-memory database index cracking and promote to future more extensive research, this paper conducted a case study on the Adaptive Radix Tree (ART), a popular tree index structure of in-memory databases. On the basis of carefully examining the ART index construction overhead, an algorithm using auxiliary data structures to crack the ART index is proposed.
