CT-NOR: Representing and Reasoning About Events in Continuous Time
We present a generative model for representing and reasoning about the relationships among events in continuous time. We apply the model to the domain of networked and distributed...

A probabilistic model for generating realistic lip movements from speech
The present work aims to model the correspondence between facial motion and speech. The face and sound are modelled separately, with phonemes being the link between both. We propo...

Noisy Image Segmentation Based on a Level Set Evolution
In this paper, we propose a new hybrid model for active contour image segmentation, which is able to segment non-uniform noisy images efficiently. The model is a combination betwe...

Using a Bilingual Context in Word-Based Statistical Machine Translation
Abstract. In statistical machine translation, phrase-based translation (PBT) models lead to a significantly better translation quality over single-word-based (SWB) models. PBT mode...

Optimal Response Initiation: Why Recent Experience Matters
In most cognitive and motor tasks, speed-accuracy tradeoffs are observed: Individuals can respond slowly and accurately, or quickly yet be prone to errors. Control mechanisms gove...
