Abstract. Sigmoidal or radial transfer functions do not guarantee the best generalization nor fast learning of neural networks. Families of parameterized transfer functions provide...
This paper briefly describes our proposal for storytelling in virtual environments from a virtual guide perspective. In our model the guide begins at a particular location and star...
Support Vector Machines (SVMs) are currently the state-of-the-art models for many classication problems but they suer from the complexity of their training algorithm which is at l...
We consider the problem of learning to attain multiple goals in a dynamic environment, which is initially unknown. In addition, the environment may contain arbitrarily varying ele...
This paper provides an overview of experiments carried out at the TREC 2004 Terabyte Track using the Indri search engine. Indri is an efficient, effective distributed search engin...
