In this paper, we discuss the approaches we took and trade-offs involved in making a paper on a conceptual topic in pattern recognition research fully reproducible. We discuss our definition of reproducibility, the tools used, how the analysis was set up, show some examples of alternative analyses the code enables and discuss our views on reproducibility.
The aim of this paper is to highlight and explore a traditional problem, which is the minimum spanning tree, and finding the shortest-path in network routing, by using Swarm Intelligence. This work to be considered as an investigation topic with combination between operations research, discrete mathematics, and evolutionary computing aiming to solve one of networking problems.
Multilingual discourse parsing is a very prominent research topic. The first stage for discourse parsing is discourse segmentation. The study reported in this article addresses a review of two on-line available discourse segmenters (for English and Portuguese). We evaluate the possibility of developing similar discourse segmenters for Spanish, French and African languages.
This document discusses an approach and its rudimentary realization towards automatic classification of PPs; the topic, that has not received as much attention in NLP as NPs and VPs. The approach is a rule-based heuristics outlined in several levels of our research. There are 7 semantic categories of PPs considered in this document that we are able to classify from an annotated corpus.
Centering theory posits a discourse center, a distinguished discourse entity that is the topic of a discourse. A simplified version of this theory is developed in a Dynamic Semantics framework. In the resulting system, the mechanism of center shift allows a simple, elegant analysis of a variety of phenomena involving sloppy identity in ellipsis and ``paycheck pronouns''.
The 38th Annual Workshop of the Austrian Association for Pattern Recognition (\"OAGM) will be held at IST Austria, on May 22-23, 2014. The workshop provides a platform for researchers and industry to discuss traditional and new areas of computer vision. This year the main topic is: Pattern Recognition: interdisciplinary challenges and opportunities.
Neuro-Symbolic Artificial Intelligence -- the combination of symbolic methods with methods that are based on artificial neural networks -- has a long-standing history. In this article, we provide a structured overview of current trends, by means of categorizing recent publications from key conferences. The article is meant to serve as a convenient starting point for research on the general topic.

Learning disentangled representations of high-dimensional data is currently an active research area. However, compared to the field of computer vision, less work has been done for speech processing. In this paper, we provide a review of two representative efforts on this topic and propose the novel concept of fine-grained disentangled speech representation learning.
Johnson--Lindenstrauss Transforms are powerful tools for reducing the dimensionality of data while preserving key characteristics of that data, and they have found use in many fields from machine learning to differential privacy and more. This note explains what they are; it gives an overview of their use and their development since they were introduced in the 1980s; and it provides many references should the reader wish to explore these topics more deeply.
