In robotics, the idea of human and robot interaction is receiving a lot of attention lately. In this paper, we describe a multi-modal system for generating a map of the environment...
We propose a principled and efficient phraseto-phrase alignment model, useful in machine translation as well as other related natural language processing problems. In a hidden se...
— Serious efforts to develop computerized systems for natural language understanding and machine translation have taken place for more than half a century. Some successful system...
We present a method of grounded word learning that is powerful enough to learn the meanings of first and second person pronouns. The model uses the understood words in an utteran...
