This paper presents experiments which combine a grammar-driven and a datadriven parser. We show how the conversion of LFG output to dependency representation allows for a techniqu...
This paper describes a new approach to unify constraints on parameters with training data to perform parameter estimation in Bayesian networks of known structure. The method is ge...
We measure the performance improvement that force feedback can provide in a virtual environment, through three experiments with, and without the assistance of haptic guidance. Per...

We present several improvements to unlexicalized parsing with hierarchically state-split PCFGs. First, we present a novel coarse-to-fine method in which a grammar’s own hierarc...

This paper presents a novel blur tolerant decorrelation scheme for local phase quantization (LPQ) texture descriptor. As opposed to previous methods, the introduced model can be a...
Domain-partition (DP) model is a general model for reliability maximization problem under given redundancy. In this paper, an improved DP model is used to formulate a reconfigurati...

Abstract. Today’s computer network is shifting from wired networks to wireless networks. Several attempts have been made to assess the performance of TCP over wireless networks. ...
Recommender systems have been developed to address the abundance of choice we face in taste domains (films, music, restaurants) when shopping or going out. However, consumers curr...
