— We are motivated by the prospect of automating microbial observing systems. To this end we have designed and built a robotic boat as part of a sensor network for monitoring aqu...
This document describes the CLIPS experiments in the CLEF 2005 campaign. We used a surface-syntactic parser in order to extract new indexing terms. These terms are considered synta...
The success of TURING Test technologies for system validation depends on the quality of the human expertise behind the system. As an additional source of human experts' valid...
Real-time Decision algorithms are a class of incremental resource-bounded [Horvitz, 89] or anytime [Dean, 93] algorithms for evaluating influence diagrams. We present a test domai...
We propose to use MapReduce to quickly test new retrieval approaches on a cluster of machines by sequentially scanning all documents. We present a small case study in which we use...
