A common statistical model for paired comparisons is the Bradley-Terry model. This research re-parameterizes the Bradley-Terry model as a single-layer artificial neural network (A...
Statistical models fit to data often require extensive and challenging re-estimation before achieving final form. For example, outliers can adversely affect fits. In other cas...
A generative probabilistic model for objects in images is presented. An object consists of a constellation of features. Feature appearance and pose are modeled probabilistically. ...
Since speaker's intentions can be represented into domain actions (pairs of domain-independent speech acts and domain-dependent concept sequences) in goal-oriented dialogues,...
