We present a new methodology of user simulation applied to the evaluation and refinement of stochastic dialog systems. Common weaknesses of these systems are the scarceness of the...
Recruitment learning in hierarchies is an inherently unstable process (Valiant, 1994). This paper presents conditions on parameters for a feedforward network to ensure stable recru...
Abstract We define a notion of context that represents invariant, stable-over-time behavior in an environment and we propose an algorithm for detecting context changes in a stream ...
A probabilistic method for tracking 3D articulated human figures in monocular image sequences is presented. Within a Bayesian framework, we define a generative model of image appea...

This paper presents an approach to the analysis of task sets implemented on multiprocessor systems, when the task execution times are specified as generalized probability distrib...
