In this paper, we argue for the need to distinguish between task initiative and dialogue initiative, and present an evidential model for tracking shifts in both types of initiativ...
Perceptual audio coders use an estimated masked threshold for the determination of the maximum permissible just-inaudible noise level introduced by quantization. This estimate is d...
