Many applications in text and speech processing require the analysis of distributions of variable-length sequences. We recently introduced a general kernel framework, rational ker...
Abstract. Stochastic finite automata are useful for identifying substrings (chunks) within larger units of text. Relevant applications include tokenization, base-NP chunking, name...
Interacting State Machines (ISMs) are used to model reactive systems and to express and verify their properties. They can be seen both as automata exchanging messages simultaneousl...
Internet protocols encapsulate a significant amount of state, making implementing the host software complex. In this paper, we define the Statecall Policy Language (SPL) which pr...
XML stream processing has recently become popular for many applications such as selective dissemination of information. Several approaches have been proposed and most of them are ...
