A Language Model (LM) is a helpful component of a variety of Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems today. For speech recognition, machine translation, information retrieval, word sense disambiguation etc., the contribution of an LM is to provide featur ...
We propose a method that exploits pose information in order to improve object classification. A lot of research has focused in other strategies, such as engineering feature extractors, trying different classifiers and even using transfer learning. Here, we ...
Social media is emerging as a powerful source of communication, information dissemination and mining. Being colloquial and ubiquitous in nature makes it easier for users to express their opinions and preferences in a seamless, dynamic manner. Epidemic surv ...
Extracting linear structures, such as blood vessels or dendrites, from images is crucial in many medical imagery applications, and many handcrafted features have been proposed to solve this problem. However, such features rely on assumptions that are never ...
Neural networks and machine learning algorithms in general require a flexible environment where new algorithm prototypes and experiments can be set up as quickly as possible with best possible computational performance. To that end, we provide a new framew ...
The early detection of changes in the level and composition of algae is essential for tracking water quality and environmental changes. Current approaches require the collection of a specimen which is later analyzed in a laboratory: this slow and expensive ...
We study the task of learning to rank images given a text query, a problem that is complicated by the issue of multiple senses. That is, the senses of interest are typically the visually distinct concepts that a user wishes to retrieve. In this paper, we p ...
This paper presents realization and the laboratory tests of the Kohonen winner takes all (WTA) neural network (NN) realized on microcontrollers (μC) with the AVR and ARM CortexM3 cores. Both μCs have been placed on a single testing board especially designe ...
PyBrain is a versatile machine learning library for Python. Its goal is to provide flexible, easy-to-use yet still powerful algorithms for machine learning tasks, including a variety of predefined environments and benchmarks to test and compare algorithms. ...
Despite a growing number of studies, the neurophysiology of adult vocabulary acquisition is still poorly understood. One reason is that paradigms that can easily be combined with neuroscientfic methods are rare. Here, we tested the efficiency of two paradi ...
