Toward an instance theory of automatization

by Gordon D. Logan - Psychological Review , 1988
"... This article presents a theory in which automatization is construed as the acquisition of a domain-specific knowledge base, formed of separate representations, instances, of each exposure to the task. Processing is considered automatic if it relies on retrieval of stored instances, which will occur ..."

Spoken document retrieval from call-center conversations

by Jonathan Mamou, David Carmel, Ron Hoory - in Proceedings of the 29th Annual International Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval (SIGIR ’06 , 2006
"... We are interested in retrieving information from conversational speech corpora, such as call-center data. This data comprises spontaneous speech conversations with low recording quality, which makes automatic speech recognition (ASR) a highly difficult task. For typical call-center data, even state- ..."

Syntactic annotation of spontaneous speech: application to call-center conversation data

by Thierry Bazillon, Melanie Delplano, Frederic Bechet, Alexis Nasr, Benoit Favre
"... This study describes the syntactic annotation process developped on the DECODA corpus. This corpus contains transcriptions of Human-Human conversations collected in a French public transport call-centre (RATP). The goal of the French ANR DECODA project is to propose new speech analytics methods targ ..."

Your Mediators Need Data Conversion!

by Sophie Cluet, Claude Delobel, Jérôme Siméon, Katarzyna Smaga , 1998
"... Due to the development of the World Wide Web, the integration of heterogeneous data sources has become a major concern of the database community. Appropriate architectures and query languages have been proposed. Yet, the problem of data conversion which is essential for the development of mediators/ ..."

mechanism and a graphical interface. The model is based on named trees with ordered and labeled nodes. Like semistructured data models, it is simple enough to facilitate the representation of any data. Its main originality is that it allows to reason at various levels of representation.

Discovering user interest on twitter with a modified author-topic model

by Zhiheng Xu , Rong Lu , Liang Xiang , Qing Yang - In Proc. IEEE/WIC/ACM Intl. Conf. on Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology (WI-IAT , 2011
"... Abstract-This paper focuses on the problem of discovering users' topics of interest on Twitter. While previous efforts in modeling users' topics of interest on Twitter have focused on building a "bag-of-words" profile for each user based on his tweets, they overlooked the fact t ..."

that Twitter users usually publish noisy posts about their lives or create conversation with their friends, which do not relate to their topics of interest. In this paper, we propose a novel framework to address this problem by introducing a modified author-topic model named twitter-user model. For each single

Analysis of Interacting BPEL Web Services

by Xiang Fu, Tevfik Bultan, Jianwen Su , 2004
"... This paper presents a set of tools and techniques for analyzing interactions of composite web services which are specified in BPEL and communicate through asynchronous XML messages. We model the interactions of composite web services as conversations, the global sequence of messages exchanged by the ..."
Abstract - Cited by 235 (13 self) - Add to MetaCart
. We show that if a composite web service is synchronizable, then its conversation set remains same when asynchronous communication is replaced with synchronous communication. We give a set of su#cient conditions that guarantee synchronizability and that can be checked statically. Based on our

Powernap: Eliminating server idle power

by David Meisner, Brian T. Gold, Thomas F. Wenisch - In International Conference on Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems (ASPLOS , 2009
"... Data center power consumption is growing to unprece-dented levels: the EPA estimates U.S. data centers will con-sume 100 billion kilowatt hours annually by 2011. Much of this energy is wasted in idle systems: in typical deployments, server utilization is below 30%, but idle servers still con-sume 60 ..."
Abstract - Cited by 219 (4 self) - Add to MetaCart
. Based on the PowerNap concept, we develop requirements and outline mechanisms to eliminate idle power waste in en-terprise blade servers. Because PowerNap operates in low-efficiency regions of current blade center power supplies, we introduce the Redundant Array for Inexpensive Load Shar-ing (RAILS), a

L.C.D.: Ensemble methods for spoken emotion recognition in call-centers. Speech communication 49,

by Donn Morrison , Ruili Wang , Liyanage C De Silva , 2007
"... Abstract Machine-based emotional intelligence is a requirement for more natural interaction between humans and computer interfaces and a basic level of accurate emotion perception is needed for computer systems to respond adequately to human emotion. Humans convey emotional information both intenti ..."

Coil sensitivity encoding for fast MRI. In:

by Klaas P Pruessmann , Markus Weiger , Markus B Scheidegger , Peter Boesiger - Proceedings of the ISMRM 6th Annual Meeting, , 1998

Multiresolution Curves

by Adam Finkelstein, David H. Salesin , 1994
"... We describe a multiresolution curve representation, based on wavelets, that conveniently supports a variety of operations: smoothing a curve; editing the overall form of a curve while preserving its details; and approximating a curve within any given error tolerance for scan conversion. We present m ..."
