We describe a simple on-line heuristic for scheduling job-shops. We assume there is a fixed set of routes for the jobs, and many jobs, say N, on each route. The heuristic uses saf...
Abstract—We present a general scheme for learning sensorimotor tasks which allows rapid on-line learning and generalization of the learned knowledge to unfamiliar objects. The sc...
Creating conversational interfaces for children is challenging in several respects. These include acoustic modeling for automatic speech recognition (ASR), language and dialog mode...
Abstract--We propose an approach to accurately detecting twodimensional (2-D) shapes. The cross section of the shape boundary is modeled as a step function. We first derive a one-d...
In this paper, we present two ways to improve the precision of HITS-based algorithms on Web documents. First, by analyzing the limitations of current HITS-based algorithms, we pro...
