Control of large-scale reconfigurable systems
This presentation covers some of these challenges, solutions, and lessons learned during the design and implementation of a prototype highly modular, reconfigurable printing system at PARC.

Class identification of pathogens based on native fluorescence spectroscopy on-a-chip
Our compact, low-cost pathogen detection platform combines a fluidic channel with a chip-size, distributed spectrometer that is optimized for recording fluorescence spectra from moving analytes or particles as they traverse…

A content-driven access control system
We present a system that can work in conjunction with natural language processing algorithms or user-generated tags, to protect identifying attributes in text.

An Iterative Unsupervised Learning Method for Information Distillation
In this work, we propose an iterative unsupervised sentence extraction method to answer open-ended natural language queries about an event. The approach consists of finding the subset of sentences that…

Learning How to Combine Sensory-Motor Functions Into a Robust Behavior
This article describes a system, called Robel, for defining a robot controller that learns from experience very robust ways of performing a high-level task such as “navigate to”.

Sleep and Menstrual-Related Disorders
There are few studies of sleep in menstrual-related disorders. Preliminary evidence indicates subtle differences in sleep and circadian regulation in women with severe premenstrual syndrome, and increased subjective sleepiness in…

High Electromechanical Performance of Electroelastomers Based on Interpenetrating Polymer Networks
The electromechanical performance of interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) in which one elastomer network is under high tension balanced by compression of the second network, were investigated.

Predictors of 12-Month Outcome in Smokers Who Received Bupropion Sustained-Release for Smoking Cessation
These results indicate the presence of a substantial amount of variation in outcome following treatment with both dosages of bupropion SR, with substantial cost consequences.

Dynamic Intention Structures I: a Theory of Intention Representation
The paper builds on ideas from dynamic logic to present a solution to the representation and evolution of agent intentions involving reference to incompletely specified and, possibly, mutually dependent intentions,…

Extracting Question/Answer Pairs in Multi-party Meetings
In this paper we introduce a new task for multi-party meetings: extracting question/answer pairs. We propose a method based on discriminative classification of individual sentences as questions and answers via…

Cortical Processing of Respiratory Afferent Stimuli During Sleep in Children with the Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
Cortical processing of respiratory afferent information can be tested by measuring respiratory-related evoked potentials (RREPs). We hypothesized that children with OSAS have blunted RREP responses compared to normal children during…
