We present yarp.js, a JavaScript framework enabling robotics networks to interface and interact with external devices by exploiting modern Web communication protocols. By connecting a YARP server module with a browser client on any external device, yarp.js allows to access on board sensors using standard Web APIs and stream the acquired data through the yarp.js network without the need for any ...

search pointers organize the main part of the application on the internet. however, because of information management hardware, high volume of data and word similarities in different fields the most answers to the user s’ questions aren`t correct. so the web graph clustering and cluster placement in corresponding answers helps user to achieve his or her intended results. community (web communit...

In this paper, we present RefLink, an interface that allows users to analyze the content of web page by dynamically linking to an online encyclopedia such as Wikipedia. Upon opening a webpage, RefLink instantly provides a list of terms extracted from the webpage and annotates each term by the number of its occurrences in the page. RefLink uses the text-to-speech interface to read out the list o...

Entity resolution in the domain of research paper authors is an important, but difficult problem. It suffers from insufficient contextual information, hence adding information from the web can significantly improve performance. We formulate the author coreference problem as one of graph partitioning with discriminativelytrained edge weights. Building on our previous work, this paper presents im...
