Component tasks in applied NLG systems

by Epsrc Under Grants L, Lynne Cahill, Lynne Cahill, Mike Reape, Mike Reape , 1999
"... This paper reports on the findings of an investigation of the component tasks of twentyone applied NLG systems. The systems were chosen according to three criteria: 1. they had to be fully implemented; 2. they had to be complete, i.e. perform complete generation of text from non-textual input; 3. th ..."

Inductive learning algorithms and representations for text categorization,”

by Susan Dumais , John Platt , Mehran Sahami , David Heckerman - in Proceedings of the International Conference on Information and Knowledge Management, , 1998
"... ABSTRACT Text categorization -the assignment of natural language texts to one or more predefined categories based on their content -is an important component in many information organization and management tasks. We compare the effectiveness of five different automatic learning algorithms for text ..."

Evolving Neural Networks through Augmenting Topologies

by Kenneth O. Stanley, Risto Miikkulainen - Evolutionary Computation
"... An important question in neuroevolution is how to gain an advantage from evolving neural network topologies along with weights. We present a method, NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies (NEAT), which outperforms the best fixed-topology method on a challenging benchmark reinforcement learning task ..."

task. We claim that the increased efficiency is due to (1) employing a principled method of crossover of different topologies, (2) protecting structural innovation using speciation, and (3) incrementally growing from minimal structure. We test this claim through a series of ablation studies

Diagnosing multiple faults.

by Johan De Kleer , Brian C Williams - Artificial Intelligence, , 1987
"... Abstract Diagnostic tasks require determining the differences between a model of an artifact and the artifact itself. The differences between the manifested behavior of the artifact and the predicted behavior of the model guide the search for the differences between the artifact and its model. The ..."

A Bayesian computer vision system for modeling human interactions

by Nuria M. Oliver, Barbara Rosario, Alex P. Pentland - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2000
"... We describe a real-time computer vision and machine learning system for modeling and recognizing human behaviors in a visual surveillance task [1]. The system is particularly concerned with detecting when interactions between people occur and classifying the type of interaction. Examples of interes ..."

Modeling Strategic Relationships for Process Reengineering

by Eric Siu-kwong Yu , 1995
"... Existing models for describing a process (such as a business process or a software development process) tend to focus on the \what " or the \how " of the process. For example, a health insurance claim process would typically be described in terms of a number of steps for assessing and appr ..."

plans? An understanding of the motivations and interests of process participants is often crucial to the successful redesign of processes. This thesis proposes a modelling framework i (pronounced i-star) consisting of two modelling components. The Strategic Dependency (SD) model describes a process

Efficient implementation of a BDD package

by Karl S. Brace, Richard L. Rudell, Randal E. Bryant - In Proceedings of the 27th ACM/IEEE conference on Design autamation , 1991
"... Efficient manipulation of Boolean functions is an important component of many computer-aided design tasks. This paper describes a package for manipulating Boolean functions based on the reduced, ordered, binary decision diagram (ROBDD) representation. The package is based on an efficient implementat ..."

ATTENTION, INTENTIONS, AND THE STRUCTURE OF DISCOURSE

by Barbara J. Grosz, Candace L. Sidner , 1986
"... In this paper we explore a new theory of discourse structure that stresses the role of purpose and processing in discourse. In this theory, discourse structure is composed of three separate but interre-lated components: the structure of the sequence of utterances (called the linguistic structure), a ..."

The Alignment Template Approach to Statistical Machine Translation

by Franz Josef Och, Hermann Ney , 2004
"... A phrase-based statistical machine translation approach — the alignment template approach — is described. This translation approach allows for general many-to-many relations between words. Thereby, the context of words is taken into account in the translation model, and local changes in word order f ..."

BRITE: An approach to universal topology generation,”

by Alberto Medina , Anukool Lakhina , Ibrahim Matta , John Byers - in Proceedings of the IEEE Ninth International Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems, , 2001
"... Abstract Effective engineering of the Internet is predicated upon a detailed understanding of issues such as the large-scale structure of its underlying physical topology, the manner in which it evolves over time, and the way in which its constituent components contribute to its overall function. U ..."
