In this paper we present the use of a "general purpose" textual entaiment recognizer in the Answer Validation Exercise (AVE) task. Our system has been developed to learn...
We claim and present arguments to the effect that a large class of manifold learning algorithms that are essentially local and can be framed as kernel learning algorithms will suf...
Accurate topical classification of user queries allows for increased effectiveness and efficiency in general-purpose web search systems. Such classification becomes critical if th...

The discovery of a person’s personally important places involves obtaining the physical locations for a person’s places that matter to his daily life and routines. This proble...
We present the first temporal-difference learning algorithm for off-policy control with unrestricted linear function approximation whose per-time-step complexity is linear in the ...
