—An open vision problem is to automatically track the articulations of people from a video sequence. This problem is difficult because one needs to determine both the number of p...
In this paper, we investigate acoustic features which differentiate the two speech registers neutral and intimate within different constellations of speakers and addressees. Three...
Precision achieved by stochastic sampling algorithms for Bayesian networks typically deteriorates in face of extremely unlikely evidence. To address this problem, we propose the E...
Visual recognition faces the difficult problem of recognizing objects despite the multitude of their appearances. Ample neuroscientific evidence shows that the cortex uses a topogr...
Abstract-- We consider reinforcement learning, and in particular, the Q-learning algorithm in large state and action spaces. In order to cope with the size of the spaces, a functio...
