ABSTRACT The SNoW (Sparse Network of Winnows) ar hite ture has re ently been su essful applied to a number of natural language pro essing (NLP) problems. In this paper, we propose large margin versions of the Winnow algorithms, whi h we argue an potentially enhan e the performan e of basi Winnows (and hen e the SNoW ar hite ture). We demonstrate that the resulting methods a hieve performan e om...

We have developed a system that a epts a spe i ation of key data stru ture onstraints, then dynami ally dete ts and repairs violations of these onstraints, enabling the program to re over from otherwise rippling errors to ontinue to exe ute produ tively. We present our experien e using our system to repair violated onstraints in a simpli ed version of the ext2 le system and in the CTAS air-traÆ...

In this paper, it is shown that by modulating a plasma arc, as well the use of an air-gas mix-ture (air with propane-butane), you can signifi-cantly increase strength coating coat-ing, coefficient powder, reduce gas permeability and wear resistance powder coatings.

in order to have better insight of project characteristics, different kinds of fuzzy analysis for project networks have been recently proposed, most of which consider activities duration as the main and only source of imprecision and vagueness, but as it is usually experienced in real projects, the structure of the network is also subject to changes. in this paper we consider three types of imp...
