چکیده

In this paper, we present the results of a two-month field study of fifteen people using a software tool designed to model changes in a user’s availability. The software uses status update messages, as well as sensors, to detect changes in context. When changes are identified using the Kullback-Leibler Divergence metric, users are prompted to broadcast their current context to their social networks. The user interface method by which the alert is delivered is evaluated in order to minimize the impact on the user’s workflow. By carefully coupling both algorithms and user interfaces, interruptions made by the software tool can be made valuable to the user.

Entropy-based Classification of 'Retweeting' Activity on Twitter

Twitter is used for a variety of reasons, including information dissemination, marketing, political organizing and to spread propaganda, spamming, promotion, conversations, and so on. Characterizing these activities and categorizing associated user generated content is a challenging task. We present a information-theoretic approach to classification of user activity on Twitter. We focus on twee...

An Information-Theoretic Discussion of Convolutional Bottleneck Features for Robust Speech Recognition

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been shown their performance in speech recognition systems for extracting features, and also acoustic modeling. In addition, CNNs have been used for robust speech recognition and competitive results have been reported. Convolutive Bottleneck Network (CBN) is a kind of CNNs which has a bottleneck layer among its fully connected layers. The bottleneck fea...

Primal and dual robust counterparts of uncertain linear programs: an application to portfolio selection

This paper proposes a family of robust counterpart for uncertain linear programs (LP) which is obtained for a general definition of the uncertainty region. The relationship between uncertainty sets using norm bod-ies and their corresponding robust counterparts defined by dual norms is presented. Those properties lead us to characterize primal and dual robust counterparts. The researchers show t...
