Abstract

The performance of machine learning (ML) models heavily depends on the quality of the data they are trained on. While prior work often treats data quality as uniform across a dataset, we investigate whether it varies across different population subgroups within a dataset and examine its implications, a phenomenon we refer to as Data Quality Disparity (DQD). Our analysis reveals that many real-world datasets inherently exhibit DQD with underrepresented or marginalized groups...

Abstract

Manual creation of IT monitoring dashboard widgets is slow, error-prone, and a barrier for both novice and expert users. We present NOVAID, an interactive chatbot that leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate IT monitoring widgets directly from natural language queries. Unlike general natural language–to-visualization tools, NOVAID addresses IT operations–specific challenges -- specialized widget types like SLO charts, dynamic API-driven data retrieval, and complex contextual filters...

Abstract

By 2027, over 50 % of enterprises are expected to adopt industry cloud platforms, driving potential EBITDA value of $3 trillion by 2030. In this landscape, software providers rely on Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) providers to access tailored virtualized resources based on usage. Optimizing resource utilization is crucial to reducing operating costs and maintaining quality standards for SaaS and IaaS providers. This creates an essential need for dynamic scaling mechanisms to adjust resources according to workload variations...
