Calibration Approaches for Language Detection
In this paper, we focus on situations in which either (1) the system-modeled languages are not observed during use or (2) the test data contains OOS languages that are unseen during modeling or calibration.

Leveraging Deep Neural Network Activation Entropy to Cope with Unseen Data in Speech Recognition
This work aims to estimate the propagation of such distortion in the form of network activation entropy, which is measured over a short-time running window on the activation from each neuron of a given hidden layer, and these measurements are then used to compute summary entropy.

Closing the Floodgate with Stateless Content-Centric Networking
Abstract Information-Centric Networking (ICN) is a recent paradigm that claims to mitigate some limitations of the current IP-based Internet architecture. The centerpiece of ICN is named and addressable content, rather than hosts or interfaces. Content- Centric Networking (CCN) is a prominent ICN instance that shares the fundamental architectural design with its equally popular academic sibling…

The Mad Science behind Autonomy and AI in the Military
While the U.S. military is laser focused on day-to-day operations, it always has an eye on the future. More specifically, on how to encourage innovation and leverage technologies, products and approaches that can better ensure mission success. This past spring I had the pleasure of speaking at the Mad Scientist Conference on Robotics, Artificial Intelligence…

Promising Model for Supporting Beginning Teachers
Imagine being a new teacher, thrust into your first classroom and given sole responsibility for managing the students, planning and executing the lessons, and assessing student learning. Imagine your first teaching experience being in a school with high teacher turnover, high student mobility, and limited resources to support you, working with students whose needs—financial and…
