This paper presents the results of the NEOLOGOS project: a children database and an optimized adult database for the French language. A new approach was adopted for the collection...
There exist a number of reinforcement learning algorithms which learn by climbing the gradient of expected reward. Their long-run convergence has been proved, even in partially ob...
We consider the problem of storing an ordered dictionary data structure over a distributed set of nodes. In contrast to traditional sequential data structures, distributed data st...
Recent research has demonstrated the strong performance of hidden Markov models applied to information extraction--the task of populating database slots with corresponding phrases...
