We consider a parallel decomposition technique for solving the large quadratic programs arising in training the learning methodology Support Vector Machine. At each iteration of th...
In Minimum Error Rate Training (MERT), BLEU is often used as the error function, despite the fact that it has been shown to have a lower correlation with human judgment than other...
In many applications, such as credit default prediction and medical image recognition, test inputs are available in addition to the labeled training examples. We propose a method ...
Maintaining compact and competent case bases has become a main topic of Case Based Reasoning (CBR) research. The main goal is to obtain a compact case base (with a reduced number o...
We have integrated technologies related to virtual social interaction, e.g. virtual environments, visual simulations, and lifelike characters. In our previous efforts to integrate...
