We present a new methodology of user simulation applied to the evaluation and refinement of stochastic dialog systems. Common weaknesses of these systems are the scarceness of the...
We have developed a Ch Mechanism Toolkit for analysis and design of mechanisms. The toolkit was developed using Ch, an embeddable C/C++ interpreter with high-level extensions. The ...
Discovering a representation that allows auditory data to be parsimoniously represented is useful for many machine learning and signal processing tasks. Such a representation can ...
Visual areas in primates are known to have reciprocal connections. While the feedforward bottom-up processing of visual information has been studied extensively for decades, littl...
Self-organizing maps (SOM) are widely used for their topology preservation property: neighboring input vectors are quantiÿed (or classiÿed) either on the same location or on nei...
