Integrating Prosodic and Lexical Cues for Automatic Topic Segmentation
TL;DR: In this article, a probabilistic model that uses both prosodic and lexical cues for the automatic segmentation of speech into topically coherent units is presented, and two methods for combining lexical and prosodic information using hidden Markov models and decision trees are proposed.

Abnormal human activity recognition system based on R-transform and kernel discriminant technique for elderly home care
Zafar Ali Khan,Won Sohn +1 more
TL;DR: A system for elderly care by recognizing six abnormal activities; forward fall, backward fall, chest pain, faint, vomit, and headache, selected from the daily life activities of elderly people is presented.

An Intelligent Information Forwarder for Healthcare Big Data Systems With Distributed Wearable Sensors
TL;DR: It is shown that the intelligent forwarders can provide the remote sensors with context-awareness and transmit only important information to the big data server for analytics when certain behaviours happen and avoid overwhelming communication and data storage.

Vehicle Speed Prediction by Two-Level Data Driven Models in Vehicular Networks
Bingnan Jiang,Yunsi Fei +1 more
TL;DR: A novel data-driven vehicle speed prediction method in the context of vehicular networks, in which the real-time traffic information is accessible and utilized for vehicle speed Prediction, which outperforms other methods in terms of prediction accuracy.

Significantly lower entropy estimates for natural DNA sequences
TL;DR: A new statistical model (compression algorithm) for naturally occurring DNA sequences is introduced, the strongest reported to date, and its parameters are learned using expectation maximization (EM) and may lead to better performance in microbiological pattern recognition applications.

The Gamma Function
Willi Freeden,Martin Gutting +1 more
TL;DR: The Gamma function as discussed by the authors is a generalized factorial function that can be used to estimate the probability distribution of a probability distribution, and it has been used in many applications, e.g., as part of probability distributions.
