Structured Argumentation for Analysis
We are developing a new methodology that retains the ease-of-use, familiarity, and (some of) the free-form nature of informal methods, while benefiting from the rigor, structure, and potential for automation…

Reusing Prior Knowledge: Problems and Solutions
In this paper, we focus on the process of reuse and report a case study on constructing a KB by reusing existing knowledge. The reuse process involved the following steps:…

Measuring the Self-Consistency of Stereo Algorithms
A new approach to characterizing the performance of point-correspondence algorithms is presented. Instead of relying on any "ground truth", it uses the self-consistency of the outputs of an algorithm independently…

Multiple-Target Tracking and Data Fusion via Probabilistic Mapping
A new approach is taken to address the various aspects of the multi-sensor, multi-target tracking (MTT) problem in dense and noisy environments. Instead of fixing the trackers on the potential…

Maximum Entropy Markov Models for Information Extraction and Segmentation
We address: modeling sequential data with HMMs, problems with previous methods: motivation, the maximum entropy Markov model, segmentation of FAQs: experiments and results.

Ontology Construction Toolkit
The goal of this project was to enable knowledge engineers to construct knowledge bases (KBs) faster. To achieve this goal, we investigated two techniques: knowledge reuse and axiom templates. The…

Domain Metatheories: Enabling User-Centric Planning
In this paper, we argue that improved usability requires a new representational layer that captures metatheoretic properties of a planning domain.
