The development of an automatic speech recognizer is typically a highly supervised process involving the specification of phonetic inventories, lexicons, acoustic and language models, along with annotated training corpora. Although some model parameters may be modified via adaptation, the overall structure of the speech recognizer remains relatively static. While this approach has been effectiv...

1.1. Why is Algebraic Geometry Beautiful. We begin with problem number two on the homework which asks us to find 27 lines on the cubic x+y+z+1 = 0. This leads us to the following beautiful story of algebraic geometry. Every cubic in P (you can think of this as A if you want) contains exactly 27 lines. In fact, since the variety of lines in P is simple to understand (it is just the Grassmanian) ...

Human–machine-interaction studies complex communication and interaction principles between people and computers. HMI research is concerned with a wide field of related topcis covering the realisation, evaluation of interactive machine and computing systems. It furthermore covers knowledge representation, displaying techniques, signal processing, pattern recognition, human factors, haptics and r...

Advances in urban climate modeling.

Cities interact with the atmosphere over a wide range of scales from the large-scale processes, which have a direct impact on global climate change, to smaller scales, ranging from the conurbation itself to individual buildings. The review presented in this paper analyzes some of the ways in which cities influence atmospheric thermodynamics and airborne pollutant transport. We present the main ...
