Retrieving With Good Sense

by Mark Sanderson - Information Retrieval , 2000
"... Although always present in text, word sense ambiguity only recently became regarded as a problem to information retrieval which was potentially solvable. The growth of interest in word senses resulted from new directions taken in disambiguation research. This paper first outlines this research and s ..."

Automatic Word Sense Discrimination

by Hinrich Schütze - Journal of Computational Linguistics , 1998
"... This paper presents context-group discrimination, a disambiguation algorithm based on clustering. Senses are interpreted as groups (or clusters) of similar contexts of the ambiguous word. Words, contexts, and senses are represented in Word Space, a high-dimensional, real-valued space in which closen ..."

is automatic and unsupervised in both training and application: senses are induced from a corpus without labeled training insta,nces or other external knowledge sources. The paper demonstrates good performance of context-group discrimination for a sample of natural and artificial ambiguous words

Seven principles for good practice in undergraduate education

by W. Chickering, Zelda F. Gamson , 1987
"... Apathetic students, illiterate graduates, incompetent teaching, impersonal campuses-- so rolls the drumfire of criticism of higher education. More than two years of reports have spelled out the problems. States have been quick to respond by holding out carrots and beating with sticks. There are neit ..."

These seven principles are not ten commandments shrunk to a twentieth century attention span. They are intended as guidelines for faculty members, students, and administrators-- with support from state agencies and trustees-- to improve teaching and learning. These principles seem like good common sense

Making good sense of quantum probabilities

by Carlton M. Caves, Christopher A. Fuchs, Rüdiger Schack, Royal Holloway , 2001
"... In the Bayesian approach to probability theory, probability quantifies a degree of belief for a single trial, without any a priori connection to limiting frequencies. Despite being prescribed by a fundamental law, probabilities for individual quantum systems can be understood within the Bayesian app ..."

approach. We argue that the distinction between classical and quantum probabilities lies not in their definition, but in the nature of the information they encode. In the classical world, maximal information about a physical system is complete in the sense of providing definite predictions for all possible

Directed Diffusion for Wireless Sensor Networking

by Chalermek Intanagonwiwat, Ramesh Govindan, Deborah Estrin, John Heidemann, Fabio Silva - IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking , 2003
"... Advances in processor, memory and radio technology will enable small and cheap nodes capable of sensing, communication and computation. Networks of such nodes can coordinate to perform distributed sensing of environmental phenomena. In this paper, we explore the directed diffusion paradigm for such ..."

Loopy belief propagation for approximate inference: An empirical study. In:

by Kevin P Murphy , Yair Weiss , Michael I Jordan - Proceedings of Uncertainty in AI, , 1999
"... Abstract Recently, researchers have demonstrated that "loopy belief propagation" -the use of Pearl's polytree algorithm in a Bayesian network with loops -can perform well in the context of error-correcting codes. The most dramatic instance of this is the near Shannon-limit performanc ..."

in a more gen eral setting? We compare the marginals com puted using loopy propagation to the exact ones in four Bayesian network architectures, including two real-world networks: ALARM and QMR. We find that the loopy beliefs of ten converge and when they do, they give a good approximation

On the time course of perceptual choice: the leaky competing accumulator model

by Marius Usher, James L. McClelland - PSYCHOLOGICAL REVIEW , 2001
"... The time course of perceptual choice is discussed in a model based on gradual and stochastic accumulation of information in non-linear decision units with leakage (or decay of activation) and competition through lateral inhibition. In special cases, the model becomes equivalent to a classical diffus ..."
Abstract - Cited by 480 (19 self) - Add to MetaCart
diffusion process, but leakage and mutual inhibition work together to address several challenges to existing diffusion, random-walk, and accumulator models. The model provides a good account of data from choice tasks using both time-controlled (e.g., deadline or response signal) and standard reaction time
