چکیده
This thesis broadens the space of rich yet practical models for structured prediction. Weintroduce a general framework for modeling with four ingredients: (1) latent variables,(2) structural constraints, (3) learned (neural) feature representations of the inputs, and(4) training that takes the approximations made during inference into account. The thesisbuilds up to this framework through an empirical study of three NLP tasks: semantic rolelabeling, relation extraction, and dependency parsing—obtaining state-of-the-art results onthe former two. We apply the resulting graphical models with structured and neural fac-tors, and approximation-aware learning to jointly model part-of-speech tags, a syntacticdependency parse, and semantic roles in a low-resource setting where the syntax is unob-served. We present an alternative view of these models as neural networks with a topologyinspired by inference on graphical models that encode our intuitions about the data.

متن کاملA Social Semiotic Analysis of Social Actors in English-Learning Software Applications
This study drew upon Kress and Van Leeuwen’s (2006, [1996]) visual grammar and Van Leeuwen’s (2008) social semiotic model to interrogate ways through which social actors of different races are visually and textually represented in four award-winning English-learning software packages. The analysis was based on narrative actional/reactional processes at the ideational level; mood, perspective, ...
متن کاملA New Generation of Synthetic Actors: the Real-time and Interactive Perceptive Actors*
In this paper, we show the evolution from the earliest frame-by-frame synthetic actors to real-time perceptive actors living in distributed virtual environments or even in the real world. We first compare requirements and methods for frame-by-frame and real-time actors. Then, we introduce a new classification of synthetic actors with four categories: participants, guided actors, autonomous acto...
متن کاملAttention modulates the speciWcity of automatic imitation to human actors
The perception of actions performed by others activates one’s own motor system. Recent studies disagree as to whether this eVect is speciWc to actions performed by other humans, an issue complicated by diVerences in perceptual salience between human and non-human stimuli. We addressed this issue by examining the automatic imitation of actions stimulated by viewing a virtual, computergenerated, ...

computer. An abstract computer consists of communication channels that can be used to communicate with every other abstract computer in the system. It also contains an application manager that manages the applications running in the system. A computer in a network can represent a node or multiple nodes can exist on one computer. A Distributed Act++ environment provides dedicated actors for comm...
