We investigate incremental word learning in a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) framework suitable for human-robot interaction. In interactive learning, the tutoring time is a crucial fac...
In this paper, we introduce the semantic network model (SNM), a generalization of the hidden Markov model (HMM) that uses factorization of state transition probabilities to reduce...

Recent research has demonstrated the strong performance of hidden Markov models applied to information extraction--the task of populating database slots with corresponding phrases...
We generalize the Winnow algorithm for learning disjunctions to learning subspaces of low rank. Subspaces are represented by symmetric projection matrices. The online algorithm ma...
