SmartKom: Foundations of Multimodal Dialogue Systems
With contributions by leading scientists in the field, this book gives the first comprehensive overview of the results of the seminal SmartKom project – one of the most advanced multimodal dialogue systems worldwide.
Object-Oriented and Internet-Based Technologies
Based on the Net. ObjectDays tradition of bringing together researchers from academia and industry on the one hand and system architects, developers, and users fromindustry andadministrationon the other hand, this year'sconference took an international research perspective, so that we see the?rst volume of Net. ObjectDays main conference proceedings published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. This volume consists of 16 papers carefully selected in a rigorous reviewing process by an international program committee; to provide a concise overview, these papers are brie?y described. In the Languages and Models session, Beate Ritterbach proposes a new l- guage element for ...
Managing Web Service Quality: Measuring Outcomes and Effectiveness
"This book is for strategic decision makers as it discusses quality issues related to Web services"--Provided by publisher.
Contextual Computing
Recent advances in the fields of knowledge representation, reasoning and human-computer interaction have paved the way for a novel approach to treating and handling context. The field of research presented in this book addresses the problem of contextual computing in artificial intelligence based on the state of the art in knowledge representation and human-computer interaction. The author puts forward a knowledge-based approach for employing high-level context in order to solve some persistent and challenging problems in the chosen showcase domain of natural language understanding. Specifically, the problems addressed concern the handling of noise due to speech recognition errors, semantic ...
Handbook of Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality (AR) refers to the merging of a live view of the physical, real world with context-sensitive, computer-generated images to create a mixed reality. Through this augmented vision, a user can digitally interact with and adjust information about their surrounding environment on-the-fly. Handbook of Augmented Reality provides an extensive overview of the current and future trends in Augmented Reality, and chronicles the dramatic growth in this field. The book includes contributions from world expert s in the field of AR from academia, research laboratories and private industry. Case studies and examples throughout the handbook help introduce the basic concepts of AR, as well as outline the Computer Vision and Multimedia techniques most commonly used today. The book is intended for a wide variety of readers including academicians, designers, developers, educators, engineers, practitioners, researchers, and graduate students. This book can also be beneficial for business managers, entrepreneurs, and investors.
Autonomous Cooperation and Control in Logistics
Many new technologies – like RFID, GPS, and sensor networks – that dominate innovative developments in logistics are based on the idea of autonomous cooperation and control. This self-organisational concept describes „...processes of decentralized decision-making in heterarchical structures. It presumes interacting elements in non-deterministic systems, which possess the capability and possibility to render decisions. The objective of autonomous cooperation and control is the achievement of increased robustness and positive emergence of the total system due to distributed and flexible coping with dynamics and complexity“ (Hülsmann & Windt, 2007). In order to underlie these technolog...
Computational Linguistics for the New Millennium
The two seemingly conflicting tendencies, synergy and divergence, are both fundamental to the advancement of any science. Their interplay defines the demarcation line between application-oriented and theoretical research. The papers in this festschrift in honour of Peter Hellwig are geared to answer questions that arise from this insight: where does the discipline of Computational Linguistics currently stand, what has been achieved so far and what should be done next. Given the complexity of such questions, no simple answers can be expected. However, each of the practitioners and researchers are contributing from their very own perspective a piece of insight into the overall picture of today's and tomorrow's computational linguistics.
