**Hybrid Firefly and Particle Swarm Optimization (HFPSO)** is a metaheuristic optimization algorithm that combines strong points of firefly and particle swarm optimization. HFPSO tries to determine the start of the local search process properly by checking the previous global best fitness values.

**Audiovisual SlowFast Network**, or **AVSlowFast**, is an architecture for integrated audiovisual perception. AVSlowFast has Slow and Fast visual pathways that are integrated with a Faster Audio pathway to model vision and sound in a unified representation. Audio and visual features are fused at multiple layers, enabling audio to contribute to the formation of hierarchical audiovisual concepts. To overcome training difficulties that arise from different learning dynamics for audio and visual modalities, [DropPathway](https://paperswithcode.com/method/droppathway) is used, which randomly drops the Audio pathway during training as an effective regularization technique. Inspired by prior studies in neuroscience, hierarchical audiovisual synchronization is performed to learn joint audiovisual features.

**I-BERT** is a quantized version of [BERT](https://paperswithcode.com/method/bert) that quantizes the entire inference with integer-only arithmetic. Based on lightweight integer only approximation methods for nonlinear operations, e.g., [GELU](https://paperswithcode.com/method/gelu), [Softmax](https://paperswithcode.com/method/softmax), and [Layer Normalization](https://paperswithcode.com/method/layer-normalization), it performs an end-to-end integer-only [BERT](https://paperswithcode.com/method/bert) inference without any floating point calculation.

In particular, GELU and Softmax are approximated with lightweight second-order polynomials, which can be evaluated with integer-only arithmetic. For LayerNorm, integer-only computation is performed by leveraging a known algorithm for integer calculation of
square root.
