We propose a method for computing semantic relatedness between words or texts by using knowledge from hypertext encyclopedias such as Wikipedia. A network of concepts is built by filtering the encyclopedia's articles, each concept corresponding to an artic ...
This paper presents a system that investigates the sonification of wave interaction in a performance space and its interaction with a live performer – the illumination of sonic activity within a real space, in contrast to conventional ALife algorithmic, ev ...
Research on conflict prevention has mainly focused on the causes of war and post-conflict reconstruction. Our knowledge on how civilians manage to contain violence in unstable and conflict environments is, however, very limited. This article aims to unders ...
We consider the transfer learning scenario, where the learner does not have access to the source domain directly, but rather operates on the basis of hypotheses induced from it - the Hypothesis Transfer Learning (HTL) problem. Particularly, we conduct a th ...
Nowadays, the knowledge economy is growing rapidly. To sustain future growth, more well educated people in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) are needed. In the Go-Lab project we aim to motivate and orient students from an early age on ...
The growing knowledge gap between the North and the South shows the need for innovative perspectives in the study of the mobility of scientists and skilled professionals. Today, more than ever, it is obvious that there is a need to recognize the importance ...
In this paper, we study the applicability of active learning (AL) in operative scenarios. More particularly, we consider the well-known contradiction between the AL heuristics, which rank the pixels according to their uncertainty, and the user's confidence ...
Traditionally, time difference of arrival (TDOA) based acoustic source tracking consists of two stages, more precisely, estimation of TDOAs followed by a tracking algorithm. In general, these two stages are performed separately and presume that (1) TDOAs c ...
Using a generalization of Fano formula that includes the intrinsic losses associated with metals, we retrieve the underlying modal structure that produces Fano resonances from the interference between a bright and a dark mode. This knowledge is used to det ...
Advances in remote sensing technologies have allowed us to send an ever-increasing number of satellites in orbit around Earth. As a result, satellite image archives have been constantly increasing in size in the last few years (now reaching petabyte sizes) ...
