Observed historical climate fields are characterized by comparatively precise data and good coverage in the last few decades, and by poor observational coverage prior to then. The technique of the reduced space optimal analysis of such fields (i.e. estimating them in projections onto a low-dimensional space spanned by the leading patterns of the signal variability) is presented in the context o...

Current research in probabilistic models of natural language is heavily biased towards systems that do not take into account the fact that language is typically generated and recognized incrementally. Even systems designed to operate on spontaneous speech tend to take as input an entire utterance, already transcribed by a pre-process, and then perform downstream processing on the entire string ...
