Q.I., café, sono e memória

Questa e quella per me pari sono.

Café Scientifique—Déjà Vu

Is the Café Scientifique a fashionable by-product of a comfortable age or an indicator of the changing relationship between science and society?

Olympic café, Bob

S ince the early 1960s, the notion of context has been modeled and exploited in many areas of informatics. The scientific community has debated definitions and uses for many years without reaching clear consensus [4]. Nonetheless, it is commonly agreed that context is about evolving, structured, and shared information spaces, and that such spaces are designed to serve a particular purpose. In u...

Robust Detection of Sono

A sonorant detection scheme using Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients and support vector machines (SVMs) is presented and tested in a variety of noise conditions. Adapting the classifier threshold using an estimate of the noise level is used to bias the classifier to effectively compensate for mismatched training and testing conditions. The adaptive threshold classifier achieves low frame error...
