Sometimes You Need a Little Intelligence, Sometimes You Need a Lot
Over the last fifteen years, we have built over a dozen different applications in many domains where the user can define behaviors by demonstration. In some of these, the system uses sophisticated artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms so that complex behavior can be inferred from a few examples. In other systems, the user must provide the full specification, and the examples are primarily use...
متن کاملHow phonological reductions sometimes help the listener.
In speech production, high-frequency words are more likely than low-frequency words to be phonologically reduced. We tested in an eye-tracking experiment whether listeners can make use of this correlation between lexical frequency and phonological realization of words. Participants heard prefixed verbs in which the prefix was either fully produced or reduced. Simultaneously, they saw a high-fre...
متن کاملGI Tract: Animal/Microbial Symbiosis
The gastrointestinal tract is indispensable for an animal’s well-being. Food is consumed through the mouth and digested by host enzymes in the stomach and small intestine, and nutrients are extracted and absorbed in the small and large intestines. In this nutrient-rich environment, microorganisms can colonize and grow, and as a result, numerous interactions or symbioses between microorganisms a...
متن کاملSymbiosis Studies in Microbial Ecology
Symbiosis has long fascinated scientists: how are microbe and microbe interacting together, and how are microbes associated with host insects, animals and plants? Those studies provide deep insights into co-evolution of life showing how microorganisms have created specific niches closely associated with different organisms, how they have sustained the life of host organisms and how microbes as ...
متن کاملBayesians Sometimes Cannot Ignore Even Very Implausible Theories
In applying Bayes’s theorem to the history of science, Bayesians sometimes assume – often without argument – that they can safely ignore very implausible theories. This assumption is false, both in that it can seriously distort the history of science as well as the mathematics and the applicability of Bayes’s theorem. There are intuitively very plausible counter-examples. In fact, one can ignor...
