Callosal Compromise Differentially Affects Conflict Processing and Attentional Allocation in Alcoholism, HIV, and Their Comorbidity
Diffusion tensor imaging was used to study the combined effects of HIV-infection and alcoholism (ALC) on corpus callosum (CC) integrity in relation to processes of attentional allocation and conflict resolution…

Effects of Saporin-Induced Lesions of Three Arousal Populations on Daily Levels of Sleep and Wake
Here, we directly test this hypothesis by a simultaneous triple lesion of these neurons using three saporin-conjugated neurotoxins.

Integrating Several Annotation Layers for Statistical Information Distillation
We present a sentence extraction algorithm for Information Distillation, a task where for a given templated query, relevant passages must be extracted from massive audio and textual document sources.

OOV Detection by Joint Word/Phone Lattice Alignment
We propose a new method for detecting out-of-vocabulary (OOV) words for large vocabulary continuous speech recognition (LVCSR) systems. Our method is based on performing a joint alignment between independently generated…

Building A Highly Accurate Mandarin Speech Recognizer
We describe a highly accurate large-vocabulary continuous Mandarin speech recognizer, a collaborative effort among four research organizations. Particularly, we build two acoustic models (AMs) with significant differences but with similar…

Web 2.0 in the enterprise
Based on extensive studies of social systems such as del.icio.us and Wikipedia, we have identified a number of factors that need to be managed in order to realize the full…

Sampling Stable Properties of Massive Track Datasets
In this paper, we explore ways in which stable properties of sensor observations can be extracted and visualized using a statistical sampling of features from a very large track dataset,…

Thermal cure effects on electrical performance of nanoparticle silver inks
Physical, electrical, and morphological properties of thermally annealed silver nanoparticle thin films are described.

An exploratory study of the effect of domain knowledge on Internet search behavior: The case of diabetes
This study investigated how domain knowledge, about diabetes, influences the process and outcome of answering complex questions using the internet.

Extending Boosting for Large Scale Spoken Language Understanding
We propose three methods for extending the Boosting family of classifiers motivated by the real-life problems we have encountered. Our results indicate that it is possible to obtain the same…

Radio and Meteor Science Outcomes from Comparisons of Meteor Radar Observations at Amisr Poker Flat, Sondrestrom, and Arecibo
We address these meteor “head-echo” observations issues via the first ever use and analysis of meteor observations from the Poker Flat AMISR (PFISR: 449.3 MHz), Sondrestrom (SRF: 1,290 MHz), and Arecibo (AO:…

Capturing a Taxonomy of Failures During Automatic Interpretation of Questions Posed in Natural Language
In this paper, we present a study – conducted in the context of the Halo Project – cataloging the types of failures that occur when capturing knowledge from natural language.
