Article
Despite the growing interest in Question Generation, evaluating these systems remains notably difficult. Many authors rely on metrics like BLEU or ROUGE instead of relying on manual evaluations, as their compu...

Chapter and Conference Paper
We demonstrate that a graph-based search algorithm—relying on the construction of an approximate neighborhood graph—can directly work with challenging non-metric and/or non-symmetric distances without resorting t...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We focus on low-dimensional non-metric search, where tree-based approaches permit efficient and accurate retrieval while having short indexing time. These methods rely on space partitioning and require a pruni...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Although current Question Generation systems can be used to automatically generate questions for students’ assessments, these need validation and, often, manual corrections. However, this information is never ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Online visitors often do not find the content they were expecting on specific pages of a large enterprise website, and subsequently search for it in site’s search box. In this paper, we propose methods to leve...
Chapter
Magnesium alloys have the potential to reduce the mass of transportation systems however to fully realize the benefits it must be usable in more applications including those that require higher strength and du...
Chapter
In 1939, Dow Chemical had advertisements discussing the use of magnesium for trains, following their successful use of Dowmetal truck bodies in 1935. Despite the fact that the concept of using magnesium (Mg) a...
Chapter
A new TEXAS alloy system (Mg-Sn-Nd-Ca-Al-Si) is presented in order to extend the range of applications for magnesium alloys. The alloy has been produced by permanent mould direct chill casting, a process that ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The Language Application (LAPPS) Grid project is establishing a framework that enables language service discovery, composition, and reuse and promotes sustainability, manageability, usability, and interoperabi...
Article
Thermo-mechanical processing was performed on two titanium alloy billets, a beta-titanium alloy (Ti1Al8V5Fe) and an alpha-beta titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V), which had been produced using a novel low-cost powder me...
Article
The default mode network (DMN), one of several resting-state networks (RSN) in the brain, is thought to be involved in self-referential thought, awareness, and episodic memories. Nicotine improves cognitive pe...
Chapter
This chapter describes three aspects of mobile dialog management: robustness in the presence of recognition errors; dynamic behavior based on user context (e.g. network connectivity, location); and efficient s...
Chapter
Spoken corpora provide a critical resource for research, development and evaluation of spoken dialog systems. This chapter describes the spoken dialog corpus used in the design of CAMMIA (Conversational Agent ...
Chapter
This chapter describes a dialog management architecture for car telematics systems. The system supports spontaneous user utterances and variable communication conditions between the in-car client and the remot...
Chapter and Conference Paper
This paper describes the results of a feasibility study which focused on deriving semantic networks from descriptive texts using controlled language. The KANT system [3,6] was used to analyze input paragraphs, pr...

Chapter and Conference Paper
We describe our experience in adapting an existing high- quality, interlingual, unidirectional machine translation system to a new domain and bidirectional translation for a new language pair (English and Ital...
