Developing tools that allow non-programmers to enter knowledge has been an ongoing challenge for AI. In recent years researchers have investigated a variety ofpromising approaches...
We analyze a corpus of referring expressions collected from user interactions with a multimodal travel guide application. The analysis suggests that, in dramatic contrast to norma...
Two of the most important threads of work in knowledge representation today are frame-based representation systems (FRS's) and Bayesian networks (BNs). FRS's provide an ...
