Government bureaucracies are both extremely complex and long-lived, constantly evolving to reflect and influence their ever changing cultural and physical environments. Software s...
Abstract. Sigmoidal or radial transfer functions do not guarantee the best generalization nor fast learning of neural networks. Families of parameterized transfer functions provide...
After an initial peak, the number of synapses in mammalian cerebral cortex decreases in the formative period and throughout adult life. However, if synapses are taken to reflect ci...
We present a technique for augmenting annotated training data with hierarchical word clusters that are automatically derived from a large unannotated corpus. Cluster membership is...
