Minimizing Algebraic Error
This paper gives a widely applicable technique for solving many of the parameter estimation problems encountered in geometric computer vision. A commonly used approach in such parameter minimization is to minimize an algebraic error function instead of a possibly preferable geometric error function. It is claimed in this paper, however, that minimizing algebraic error will usually give excellen...
متن کاملDeveloping questionnaires for educational research: AMEE
In this AMEE Guide, we consider the design and development of self-administered surveys, commonly called questionnaires. Questionnaires are widely employed in medical education research. Unfortunately, the processes used to develop such questionnaires vary in quality and lack consistent, rigorous standards. Consequently, the quality of the questionnaires used in medical education research is hi...
متن کاملCombined Source/Channel Decoding: When Minimizing Bit Error Rate is Suboptimal
AT&T Labs – Research Florham Park, NJ 07932, USA ftim,thomas,rvc,[email protected] Abstra t | Convolutional coding as a means of error correction is widely used in mobile communications, where the effects of channel noise have to be taken into account. Channel decoders usually aim at minimizing the frame, symbol or residual bit error rate of the source bits. In this contribution we show how ...
متن کاملMinimizing Cumulative Error in Discourse Context
Cumulative error limits the usefulness of context in applications utilizing contextual information. It is especially a problem in spontaneous speech systems where unexpected input, out-of-domain utterances and missing information are hard to fit into the standard structure of the contextual model. In this paper we discuss how our approaches to recognizing speech acts address the problem of cumu...
متن کاملEfficient Algorithms for Minimizing Cross Validation Error
Model selection is important in many areas of supervised learning. Given a dataset and a set of models for predicting with that dataset, we must choose the model which is expected to best predict future data. In some situations, such as online learning for control of robots or factories, data is cheap and human expertise costly. Cross validation can then be a highly effective method for automat...
