In this paper we describe a system for animating flames. Stochastic models of flickering and buoyant diffusion provide realistic local appearance while physics-based wind fields a...
: A natural interface is one of three key technologies of Ambient Intelligence (AmI); one of its main objectives is to minimize the user’s interactive effort, which is the diffic...
Distributional similarity methods have proven to be a valuable tool for the induction of semantic similarity. Up till now, most algorithms use two-way cooccurrence data to compute...
This paper presents an improved distance measure for speaker clustering in speaker diarization systems. The proposed phonetic subspace mixture (PSM) model introduces phonetic info...
To date, many active learning techniques have been developed for acquiring labels when training data is limited. However, an important aspect of the problem has often been neglect...
