An important step in the development of dependable systems is the validation of their fault tolerance properties. Fault injection has been widely used for this purpose, however wi...
Stochastic model checking has been used recently to assess, among others, dependability measures for a variety of systems. However, the employed numerical methods, as, e.g., suppor...
We investigate a series of targeted modifications to a data-driven dependency parser of German and show that these can be highly effective even for a relatively well studied langu...
This paper presents our experiments in question answering for speech corpora. These experiments focus on improving the answer extraction step of the QA process. We present two app...
Recently the "bag of words" model becomes popular in the approaches to object recognition. These approaches model an image as a collection of local patches called "...
