We present a system of differential equations which abstractly models neural dynamics and synaptic plasticity of a cortical macrocolumn. The equations assume inhibitory coupling b...
—A fast online algorithm OnlineSVMR for training Ramp-Loss Support Vector Machines (SVMR s) is proposed. It finds the optimal SVMR for t+1 training examples using SVMR built on t...
We review key challenges of developing spoken dialog systems that can engage in interactions with one or multiple participants in relatively unconstrained environments. We outline...
To test large scale socially embedded systems, this paper proposes a multiagent-based participatory design that consists of two steps; 1) participatory simulation, where scenario-...
Spoken language is one of the most intuitive forms of interaction between humans and agents. Unfortunately, agents that interact with people using natural language often experienc...
