The Coordination of Arm Movements: An Experimentally Confirmed Mathematical Model

by Tamar Flash, Neville Hogans - Journal of neuroscience , 1985
"... This paper presents studies of the coordination of volun-tary human arm movements. A mathematical model is for-mulated which is shown to predict both the qualitative fea-tures and the quantitative details observed experimentally in planar, multijoint arm movements. Coordination is modeled mathematic ..."

Analysis of TCP Performance over Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Part I: Problem Discussion and Analysis of Results

by Gavin Holland, Nitin Vaidya , 1999
"... Mobile ad hoc networks have gained a lot of attention lately as a means of providing continuous network connectivity to mobile computing devices regardless of physical location. Recently, a large amount of research has focused on the routing protocols needed in such an environment. In this two-part ..."

The Aurora Experimental Framework for the Performance Evaluation of Speech Recognition Systems under Noisy Conditions

by David Pearce, Hans-günter Hirsch, Ericsson Eurolab Deutschland Gmbh - in ISCA ITRW ASR2000 , 2000
"... This paper describes a database designed to evaluate the performance of speech recognition algorithms in noisy conditions. The database may either be used to measure frontend feature extraction algorithms, using a defined HMM recognition back-end, or complete recognition systems. The source speech f ..."

being used to evaluate alternative proposals for front-end feature extraction. The database has been made publicly available through ELRA so that other speech researchers to evaluate and compare the performance of noise robust algorithms. Recognition results will be presented for the first standard DSR

Verbal reports as data

by K. Anders Ericsson, Herbert A. Simon - Psychological Review , 1980
"... The central proposal of this article is that verbal reports are data. Accounting for verbal reports, as for other kinds of data, requires explication of the mech-anisms by which the reports are generated, and the ways in which they are sensitive to experimental factors (instructions, tasks, etc.). W ..."

A comparison of document clustering techniques

by Michael Steinbach, George Karypis, Vipin Kumar - In KDD Workshop on Text Mining , 2000
"... This paper presents the results of an experimental study of some common document clustering techniques: agglomerative hierarchical clustering and K-means. (We used both a “standard” K-means algorithm and a “bisecting ” K-means algorithm.) Our results indicate that the bisecting K-means technique is ..."

TCP Vegas: New techniques for congestion detection and avoidance

by Lawrence S. Brakmo, Sean W. O’malley, Larry L. Peterson - In SIGCOMM , 1994
"... Vegas is a new implementation of TCP that achieves between 40 and 70 % better throughput, with one-fifth to onehalf the losses, as compared to the implementation of TCP in the Reno distributionof BSD Unix. This paper motivates and describes the three key techniques employed by Vegas, and presents th ..."

Learning with local and global consistency.

by Dengyong Zhou , Olivier Bousquet , Thomas Navin Lal , Jason Weston , Bernhard Schölkopf - In NIPS, , 2003
"... Abstract We consider the general problem of learning from labeled and unlabeled data, which is often called semi-supervised learning or transductive inference. A principled approach to semi-supervised learning is to design a classifying function which is sufficiently smooth with respect to the intr ..."

to the intrinsic structure collectively revealed by known labeled and unlabeled points. We present a simple algorithm to obtain such a smooth solution. Our method yields encouraging experimental results on a number of classification problems and demonstrates effective use of unlabeled data.

TCP Vegas: End to End Congestion Avoidance on a Global Internet

by Lawrence S. Brakmo, Larry L. Peterson , 2006
"... Vegas is an implementation of TCP that achieves between 37 and 71 % better throughput on the Internet, with one-fifth to one-half the losses, as compared to the implementation of TCP in the Reno distribution of BSD Unix. This paper motivates and describes the three key techniques employed by Vegas, ..."

Semantic Similarity in a Taxonomy: An Information-Based Measure and its Application to Problems of Ambiguity in Natural Language

by Philip Resnik , 1999
"... This article presents a measure of semantic similarityinanis-a taxonomy based on the notion of shared information content. Experimental evaluation against a benchmark set of human similarity judgments demonstrates that the measure performs better than the traditional edge-counting approach. The a ..."

Introduction Evaluating semantic relatedness using network representations is a problem with a long history

RADAR: an in-building RF-based user location and tracking system

by Paramvir Bahl, Venkata N. Padmanabhan , 2000
"... The proliferation of mobile computing devices and local-area wireless networks has fostered a growing interest in location-aware systems and services. In this paper we present RADAR, a radio-frequency (RF) based system for locating and tracking users inside buildings. RADAR operates by recording and ..."
