Speaker Adaptation of Language and Prosodic Models for Automatic Dialog Act Segmentation of Speech
This study explores speaker-specific modeling for the task of automatic segmentation of speech into dialog acts (DAs), using a linear combination of speaker-dependent and speaker-independent language and prosodic models.

Datasets for Inquiry in Geoscience: A Design Model
This article describes the results of a proof of concept project, Data Sets for Inquiry in Geoscience (DIGS), funded by the National Science Foundation.

Global Reemergence of Tuberculosis: Are Host Defense Peptides an Option to Ameliorate Disease Burden?
Intermittent drug therapy due to noncompliance or poor delivery of therapy promotes the emergence of bacterial strains showing resistance to multiple drugs and the rise of extremely drug-resistant strains.

Pharmacokinetics and Metabolism of (R,R)-Methoxyfenoterol in Rat
(R,R)-fenoterol (Fen), a beta(2)-adrenoceptor agonist, is under clinical investigation in the treatment of congestive heart disease.

Daytime Sleepiness, Psychomotor Performance, Waking Eeg Spectra and Evoked Potentials in Women with Severe Premenstrual Syndrome
We assessed daytime sleepiness using objective and subjective measures in women with severe premenstrual syndrome (PMS) compared with women without significant premenstrual symptoms.

A comparison of approaches for modeling prosodic features in speaker recognition
In this work, we study the two modeling techniques for the simpler set of features. We show that, for these features, a combination of JFA systems for different sequence lengths…

Design of Short Linear Peptides That Show Hydrogen Bonding Constraints in Water
Using a combination of an aromatic amino acid, a homoserine side chain, and a d-amino acid, a series of linear tetrapeptides were designed that adopt an “Hse turn” in water.

Across-phone variability and diagonal term in joint factor analysis for speaker recognition
We investigate usefulness of across-phone variability for speaker recognition in a joint factor analysis (JFA) framework. We estimate the variability as across-phone covariance within a conversation side averaged over all…

From documents to tasks: deriving user tasks from document usage patterns
In order to reduce the necessary amount of training, this paper proposes a new approach for automatically estimating a user's tasks from document interactions in an unsupervised manner.

Information seeking with social signals: anatomy of a social tag-based exploratory search browser
In this paper, we present the algorithm of a tag-based exploratory system based on this idea.

Temporal task footprinting: identifying routine tasks by their temporal patterns
This paper introduces a new representation for describing routine tasks, called temporal task footprints.
