tion can machines think? by replacing it with another, namely can a machine pass the imitation game (the Turing test). In the years since, this test has been criticized as being a poor replacement for the original enquiry (for example, Hayes and Ford [1995]), which raises the question: what would a better replacement be? In this article, we argue that standardized tests are an effective and pra...

Increased Automation in the manufacturing sector with the introduction of low cost embedded systems and servo drives has resulted in a substantial increase in the precision and speed of packaged goods output. This increase in speed has rendered manual verification incapable to keep up. Recent developments in the area of computer vision and embedded computing has allowed for replacement of tradi...

Abstract. A KPU is a replacement for a standard RISC processor that natively runs encrypted machine code on encrypted data in registers and memory – a ‘general-purpose crypto-processor’, in other words. It works because the processor’s arithmetic is customised to make the chosen encryption into a mathematical homomorphism, resulting in what is called a ‘fully-homomorphic encryption’ design. Thi...

Incorporating invariances into a learning algorithm is a common problem in machine learning. We provide a convex formulation which can deal with arbitrary loss functions and arbitrary losses. In addition, it is a drop-in replacement for most optimization algorithms for kernels, including solvers of the SVMStruct family. The advantage of our setting is that it relies on column generation instead...

Over the years, sophisticated techniques for utilizing the prior knowledge in the form of text-derived language model and in pronunciation lexicon evolved. However, their use has an undesirable effect: unexpected lexical items (words) in the phrase are replaced by acoustically acceptable in-vocabulary items [1]. This is the major source of error since the replacement often introduces additional...

from may 1994 to december 1996 thirty patients received viable fresh aortic homografts. mean age was 55 years (13 to 70), male to female ratio was 2/1, 24 operations were elective whereas 6 were semiurgent. predominant lesions were aortic stenosis or regurgitation in lb patients, aortic valve endocarditis in 10, prosthetic valve dysfunction in 3, and aortic root pathology in one patient. from t...
