چکیده

We investigate hierarchical graphical models (HGMs) for automatically detecting decisions in multi-party discussions. Several types of dialogue act (DA) are distinguished on the basis of their roles in formulating decisions. HGMs enable us to model dependencies between observed features of discussions, decision DAs, and subdialogues that result in a decision. For the task of detecting decision regions, an HGM classifier was found to outperform non-hierarchical graphical models and support vector machines, raising the F1-score to 0.80 from 0.55.

Hierarchical Bayesian Inference in Networks of Spiking Neurons

There is growing evidence from psychophysical and neurophysiological studies that the brain utilizes Bayesian principles for inference and decision making. An important open question is how Bayesian inference for arbitrary graphical models can be implemented in networks of spiking neurons. In this paper, we show that recurrent networks of noisy integrate-and-fire neurons can perform approximate...

DIAGNOSIS OF BREAST LESIONS USING THE LOCAL CHAN-VESE MODEL, HIERARCHICAL FUZZY PARTITIONING AND FUZZY DECISION TREE INDUCTION

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death among women. Mammography remains today the best technology to detect breast cancer, early and efficiently, to distinguish between benign and malignant diseases. Several techniques in image processing and analysis have been developed to address this problem. In this paper, we propose a new solution to the problem of computer aided detection and...

MCCD: Multi-core collision detection between deformable models using front-based decomposition

We present a novel parallel algorithm for fast continuous collision detection (CCD) between deformable models using multi-core processors. We use a hierarchical representation to accelerate these queries and present an incremental algorithm that exploits temporal coherence between successive frames. Our formulation distributes the computation among multiple cores by using finegrained front-base...

The Bremen System for the GIVE-2.5 Challenge

This paper presents the Bremen system for the GIVE-2.5 challenge. It is based on decision trees learnt from new annotations of the GIVE corpus augmented with manually specified rules. Surface realisation is based on context-free grammars. The paper will address advantages and shortcomings of the approach and discuss how the present system can serve as a baseline for a future evaluation with an ...

Traffic Scene Analysis using Hierarchical Sparse Topical Coding

Analyzing motion patterns in traffic videos can be exploited directly to generate high-level descriptions of the video contents. Such descriptions may further be employed in different traffic applications such as traffic phase detection and abnormal event detection. One of the most recent and successful unsupervised methods for complex traffic scene analysis is based on topic models. In this pa...
