This paper presents the results of experiments on probabilistic GLR (PGLR), a new probabilistic model proposed by (Inui et al., 1997). The model is formalized based on stack transition during parsing distinguishing it from the existing models proposed byWright andWrigley, and Briscoe and Carroll. Our model produces a remarkable improvement in syntactic parsing with probability. Associating prob...

This paper describes SYNAPSIS, a parser for performing real-time understanding of spoken utterances in a parallel computational environment. Understanding continuous speech allowing reasonably free syntax poses two main oroblems, namely the risk of erroneous interpretations and the largeness of the search space owing to the high uncertainty of the input. The parser is characterized by an approa...

The issue of increasing the effectiveness of alumni development and fund raising programs tc ensure quality in academic programs and campus life for the coming decade was examined. The study's primary purposes were to: (1) describe the development of a comprehensive decision support system for alumni and fund raising activities at one independent university--the University of Hartford, Connecti...

Simulations are done to compare the performances of Generalized Likelihood Ratio (GLR) and Cuscore charts for detecting specific signals hidden in noise. Two different types of signals are considered: a sine wave and a linear trend. Two different cases are analyzed, a known signal form and parameter and a known signal form but unknown signal parameter. Both the initial performances and steady-s...

Günümüzde kullanılan bilgisayar destekli tasarım ve üretim sistemlerinde ahşap malzemenin optimum tasarımının yapılabilmesi için tüm elastik sabitlerinin bilinmesi gerekir. Ortotropik bir malzeme olan ahşabın bu sistemlere entegrasyonu dokuz sabite ihtiyaç vardır. Bu çalışmada, Sedir (Cedrus libani A.) odununun sabit sıcaklık rutubet koşullarında sabitleri incelenmiştir. Elastik sabitler basma ...

The contributions of this special issue explore the concept colonial durabilities in a bid to unearth both concrete and invisible sites through which coloniality continues circulate materialise African Great Lakes Region (GLR). Colonial durabilities, we argue, are non-linear dynamic processes that suffuse realities structures international national politics, as well conduct daily life. These be...
