Foundations And Opportunities For An Interdisciplinary Science Of Learning
In this chapter, we argue that the learning sciences are poised for a “decade of synergy.” We focus on several key traditions of theory and research with the potential for…

Identifying Candidate Genes Using The BioWarehouse: A Case Study
The BioWarehouse is an open source data warehousing environment focused on supporting bioinformatics databases (DBs). BioWarehouse integrates public source DBs such as Swiss-Prot and GenBank into a unified normalized schema…

The complete genome sequence of Francisella tularensis, the causative agent of tularemia
We report the complete genome sequence of a highly virulent isolate of F. tularensis. The sequence uncovers previously uncharacterized genes encoding type IV pili, a surface polysaccharide and iron-acquisition systems.

Liquid-phase deposition of single-phase alpha-copper-indiumdiselenide,
Based on the first complete CuInSe phase diagram, which was recently established, we propose a new method for making single-phase copper-indium-diselenide (CuInSe2) films for high-specific-power photovoltaic applications: liquid-phase deposition.

From Switchboard to Meetings: Development of the 2004 ICSI-SRI-UW Meeting Recognition System
We describe the ICSI-SRI-UW team's entry in the Spring 2004 NIST Meeting Recognition Evaluation. The system was derived from SRI's 5xRT Conversational Telephone Speech (CTS) recognizer by adapting CTS acoustic…

The ICSI-SRI-UW Metadata Extraction System
We describe a state-of-the-art system for automatic detection of "metadata" in both broadcast news and spontaneous telephone conversations, developed as part of the DARPA EARS Rich Transcription program.

A Wizard of Oz framework for collecting spoken human-computer dialogs
This paper describes a data collection process aimed at gathering human-computer dialogs in high-stress or “busy” domains where the user is concentrating on tasks other than the conversation, for example,…

SVM Modeling of “SNERF-Grams” for Speaker Recognition
We describe a new approach to modeling idiosyncratic prosodic behavior for automatic speaker recognition. The approach computes prosodic features by syllable, and models the syllable-feature sequences using support vector machines…

Effective Acoustic Modeling for Rate-of-Speech Variation in Large Vocabulary Conversational Speech Recognition
We investigate several variants of speech-rate-dependent acoustic models for large-vocabulary conversational speech recognition, in the framework of combining rate-specific models in decoding to compensate for speech rate variation.

National Early Intervention Longitudinal Study (NEILS): Family Outcomes at the End of Early Intervention
The report has two primary aims: to describe the outcomes reported by families following their experience with early intervention programs, and to identify a subset of families who were less…

On Using MLP Features in LVCSR
One of the major research thrusts in the speech group at ICSI is to use Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) based features in automatic speech recognition (ASR). This paper presents a study…
