Due to Arabic’s morphological complexity, Arabic retrieval benefits greatly from morphological analysis – particularly stemming. However, the best known stemming does not hand...
A principal weakness of conventional (i.e., non-hierarchical) phrase-based statistical machine translation is that it can only exploit continuous phrases. In this paper, we extend...
The current standard image-compression approaches rely on fairly simple predictions, using either block- or wavelet-based methods. While many more sophisticated texture-modeling a...
We present several significant improvements in the implementation of the quick check pre-unification filter [7] [10], and the potential way in which the design of the quick check [...
Exploiting unannotated natural language data is hard largely because unsupervised parameter estimation is hard. We describe deterministic annealing (Rose et al., 1990) as an appea...
It has been known that using different representations of either queries or documents, or different retrieval techniques retrieves different sets of documents. Recent work suggest...
The ability to make in-situ performance measurements of MEMS operating at high speeds has been demonstrated using a new image analysis system. Significant improvements in performa...
This paper suggests tools that provide significant improvements in the design and verification of FPGAbased digital circuits. These tools include reusable specifications of hardwa...

We cast name discrimination as a problem in clustering short contexts. Each occurrence of an ambiguous name is treated independently, and represented using second?order context vec...
In this paper, we introduce new multiscale AM-FM demodulation algorithms that provide significant improvements in accuracy over previously reported approaches. The improvements ar...
