The stability of sample based algorithms is a concept commonly used for parameter tuning and validity assessment. In this paper we focus on two well studied algorithms, LSI and PCA...
Abstract. Over the last twenty years AI has undergone a sea change. The oncedominant paradigm of logical inference over symbolic knowledge representations has largely been supplant...
This paper explores the feasibility of a multilingual question answering approach based on the Web redundancy. The paper introduces a system prototype that combines a translation m...
Abstract. We derive upper and lower bounds for some statistical estimation problems. The upper bounds are established for the Gibbs algorithm. The lower bounds, applicable for all ...
