Here, we show that human observers can achieve illumination invariance by using object fragments that carry the relevant information.

This paper reflects on an industry case study conducted in two outsourced call centers to explore the human side of their turnover problem.

In this paper, a new graph grammar representation is proposed to reason about the manufacturability of solid models.

This presentation will focus on examples of the materials and methods that are used to control ink and substrate interactions in ink-jet printed field-effect transistors.

An ACT-R model of sensemaking in a geospatial intelligence task was developed based on Instance-Based Learning Theory (IBLT).

In this paper, we define such areas as context-dependent spatial regions and present a cognitive system able to learn them by combining qualitative spatial representations, semantic labels, and analogy.

We have designed and implemented a sharing system that doesn't require infrastructure yet supports robust, distributed, secure sharing by opportunistically using all connectivity, local or global, permanent or transient, to…

Three different projects illustrate how we have used video ethnography to build up a social science research competency in the services domain.

Video ethnography is our primary method of capturing the complexity of service work.

In this work, we compare hash-distributed search, a well-known parallel search technique for model checking, with an algorithm from the automated planning and heuristic search community called Parallel Structured Duplicated…

We propose an algorithm to infer a user's personality profile more reliably by fusing analytical predictions from multiple sources including behavioral traces, textual data, and social networking information.
