Abstract--In this paper we study a broad class of semiMarkovian queues introduced by Sengupta. This class contains many classical queues such as the GI/M/1 queue, SM/MAP/1 queue an...
Probabilistic models have been adopted for many computer vision applications, however inference in highdimensional spaces remains problematic. As the statespace of a model grows, ...
"Can computers meaningfully process human language? If this is difficult, why? If this is possible, how? This book introduces the reader to the fascinating science of computat...
We introduce a computational model of sensor fusion based on the topographic representations of a ”two-microphone and one camera” configuration. Our aim is to perform a robust...
Words are the essence of communication: they are the building blocks of any language. Learning the meaning of words is thus one of the most important aspects of language acquisiti...
