We present a simple, original method to improve piecewise linear interpolation with uniform knots: We shift the sampling knots by a fixed amount, while enforcing the interpolation...
Clustering algorithms conduct a search through the space of possible organizations of a data set. In this paper, we propose two types of instance-level clustering constraints ? mu...
We report results from a small Wizard-of-Oz study investigating user responses to miscommunications in speech dialogue systems. We explore the separate and joint effects of miscom...
Texting--using a mobile phone to send text messages--has become a form of mass communication. Building on studies that described how British teenagers have incorporated text messa...
We calculate the Shannon entropy rate of a binary Hidden Markov Process (HMP), of given transition rate and noise (emission), as a series expansion in . The first two orders are ca...
