From Geek to Sleek: Integrating Task Learning Tools to Support End Users in Real-World Applications
We present an integrated task learning system (ITL) that learns executable procedures based on user demonstration and instruction, constituting a first step toward a broader solution for procedure management.

Learning By Demonstration to Support Military Planning and Decision Making
We describe the development and application of learning by demonstration technology to support user creation of automated procedures for a rich collaborative planning environment that is in widespread use by the U.S. Army.

Malware Characterization Through Alert Pattern Discovery
We present a novel alert correlation approach based on the factor analysis statistical technique for malware characterization. Our approach involves mechanically computing a set of abstract quantities, called factors, for expressing the intrusion detection system (IDS) alerts pertaining to malware instances.

Multiple Roles for Nicotine in Parkinson’s Disease
Extensive studies in parkinsonian animals show that nicotine protects against nigrostriatal damage, findings that may explain the well-established decline in Parkinson’s disease incidence with tobacco use.

Observations of Midlatitude Ionospheric Instabilities Generating Meter-Scale Waves at the Magnetic Equator
We present data from a spectacular low-latitude ionospheric event obtained using two ionospheric imaging systems located on the Haleakala Volcano on Maui, Hawaii , and a 50-MHz coherent scatter radar located on Christmas Island.

Stanford-UBC at TAC-KBP
This paper describes the joint Stanford-UBC knowledge base population system. We developed several entity linking systems based on frequencies of backlinks, training on contexts of anchors, overlap of context with the text of the entity in Wikipedia.

Subject-Matched Templates for Spatial Normalization
Here, we introduce the concept of subject-matched templates. Rather than using a single template for the entire population, a different template is used for every subject, with the template matched to the subject in terms of age, sex, and potentially other parameters (e.g., disease).

Temperature Dependence of the Vibrational Relaxation of OH(u = 1 and 2) By CO2
Measurements of vibrational energy transfer probabilities are presented for the temperature range 205–360 °K for HF–DF, HF–CO2, and DF–CO2 gas mixtures.

Analyzing Online Social Networking in Professional Learning Communities: Cyber Networks Require Cyber-Research Tools
The authors argue that conceptual and methodological limitations in existing research approaches severely hamper theory building and empirical exploration of teacher learning and collaboration through cyber-enabled networks.

Using Learning Decomposition To Analyze Instructional Effectiveness In The Assistment System
This paper presents a study determining the relative efficacy of different instructional content by applying an educational data mining technique, learning decomposition.

Calorimetry of Pulse Elecro-Melting of PdDx Wires
The ultimate extrapolation of this technology is the electrical heating of thin PdDx wires resulting in destructive high-speed melting – “exploding wires”. Exploding wire technology has been used for over 150 years to make fine metal particles.
