Abstract: Designing and implementing multimodal applications that take advantage of several recognitionbased interaction techniques (e.g. speech and gesture recognition) is a diffi...
In wide-coverage lexicalized grammars many of the elementary structures have substructures in common. This means that in conventional parsing algorithms some of the computation as...
Spoken dialogue managers have benefited from using stochastic planners such as Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). However, so far, MDPs do not handle well noisy and ambiguous speec...
A novel confidence-based parallel multiple expert decision combination framework is introduced. The traditional approaches to parallel multiple source decision fusion either take ...
Multi-word terms are traditionally identified using statistical techniques or, more recently, using hybrid techniques combining statistics with shallow linguistic information. Al)...
