Question Answering For Toxicological Information Extraction

Authors: Bruno Carlos Luís Ferreira, Hugo Gonçalo Oliveira, Hugo Amaro, Ângela Laranjeiro, and Catarina Silva

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 104, 11th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2022)

Abstract
Working with large amounts of text data has become hectic and time-consuming. In order to reduce human effort, costs, and make the process more efficient, companies and organizations resort to intelligent algorithms to automate and assist the manual work. This problem is also present in the field of toxicological analysis of chemical substances, where information needs to be searched from multiple documents. That said, we propose an approach that relies on Question Answering for acquiring information from unstructured data, in our case, English PDF documents containing information about physicochemical and toxicological properties of chemical substances. Experimental results confirm that our approach achieves promising results which can be applicable in the business scenario, especially if further revised by humans.

Analysing Off-The-Shelf Options for Question Answering with Portuguese FAQs

Authors: Hugo Gonçalo Oliveira, Sara Inácio, and Catarina Silva

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 104, 11th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2022)

Abstract
Following the current interest in developing automatic question answering systems, we analyse alternative approaches for finding suitable answers from a list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), in Portuguese. These rely on different technologies, some more established and others more recent, and are all easily adaptable to new lists of FAQs, on new domains. We analyse the effort required for their configuration, the accuracy of their answers, and the time they take to get such answers. We conclude that traditional Information Retrieval (IR) can be a solution for smaller lists of FAQs, but approaches based on deep neural networks for sentence encoding are at least as reliable and less dependent on the number and complexity of the FAQs. We also contribute with a small dataset of Portuguese FAQs on the domain of telecommunications, which was used in our experiments.

Demystifying the Real-Time Linux Scheduling Latency (Artifact)

Authors: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira, Daniel Casini, Rômulo Silva de Oliveira, and Tommaso Cucinotta

Published in: DARTS, Volume 6, Issue 1, Special Issue of the 32nd Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2020)

Abstract
The "Demystifying the Real-Time Linux Scheduling Latency" paper defines a safe bound for the real-time Linux scheduling latency. It also presents a tool kit that enables the measurements and analysis of the variables that compose the bond. The tool kit is used in the experimental section, performing the scheduling latency analyses on real platforms. This artifact provides the means to evaluate the tool kit and to reproduce the results of the experimental section.

Demystifying the Real-Time Linux Scheduling Latency

Authors: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira, Daniel Casini, Rômulo Silva de Oliveira, and Tommaso Cucinotta

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 165, 32nd Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2020)

Abstract
Linux has become a viable operating system for many real-time workloads. However, the black-box approach adopted by cyclictest, the tool used to evaluate the main real-time metric of the kernel, the scheduling latency, along with the absence of a theoretically-sound description of the in-kernel behavior, sheds some doubts about Linux meriting the real-time adjective. Aiming at clarifying the PREEMPT_RT Linux scheduling latency, this paper leverages the Thread Synchronization Model of Linux to derive a set of properties and rules defining the Linux kernel behavior from a scheduling perspective. These rules are then leveraged to derive a sound bound to the scheduling latency, considering all the sources of delays occurring in all possible sequences of synchronization events in the kernel. This paper also presents a tracing method, efficient in time and memory overheads, to observe the kernel events needed to define the variables used in the analysis. This results in an easy-to-use tool for deriving reliable scheduling latency bounds that can be used in practice. Finally, an experimental analysis compares the cyclictest and the proposed tool, showing that the proposed method can find sound bounds faster with acceptable overheads.
