This paper describes a statistically motivated framework for performing real-time dialogue state updates and policy learning in a spoken dialogue system. The framework is based on...
Many stateful services use the replicated state machine approach for high availability. In this approach, a service runs on multiple machines to survive machine failures. This pap...

In off-line handwriting recognition, classifiers based on hidden Markov models (HMMs) have become very popular. However, while there exist well-established training algorithms, s...
Although a self-stabilizing system that suffers from a transient fault is guaranteed to converge to a legitimate state after a finite number of steps, the convergence can be slow ...
