Starting from first principles, we re-visit the statistical approach and study two forms of the Bayes decision rule: the common rule for minimizing the number of string errors and...
We consider the problem of sequential decentralized detection, a problem that entails several interdependent choices: the choice of a stopping rule (specifying the sample size), a...

We apply decision tree induction to the problem of discourse clue word sense disambiguation. The automatic partitioning of the training set which is intrinsic to decision tree ind...
Abstract. Partial parsing techniques try to recover syntactic information efficiently and reliably by sacrificing completeness and depth of analysis. One of the difficulties of pa...
The Euclidean skeleton is essential for general shape representation. This paper provides an e cient method to extract a well-connected Euclidean skeleton by a neighbor bisector d...
