Curve matching is an important computational task for domains such as: reconstruction of archaeological fragments, forensics investigation, measuring melodic similarity, and model...
This paper describes an incremental approach to parsing transcribed spontaneous speech containing disfluencies with a Hierarchical Hidden Markov Model (HHMM). This model makes use...
Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is a powerful feature extraction method for finding parts-based, linear representations of non-negative data . Inherently, it is unsupervis...
Multimodal grammars provide an expressive formalism for multimodal integration and understanding. However, handcrafted multimodal grammars can be brittle with respect to unexpecte...
Named-entity recognition systems extract entities such as people, organizations, and locations from unstructured text. Rather than extract these mentions in isolation, this paper ...
