TLDR
Implementing a popular medical handbook in hypertext underscores the need to study hypertext in the context of full-text document retrieval, machine learning, and user interface issues.
Abstract
Medicine is an ideal domain for hypertext applications and research. Implementing a popular medical handbook in hypertext underscores the need to study hypertext in the context of full-text document retrieval, machine learning, and user interface issues.

Systems and methods for hands-free notification summaries

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for outputting an alert corresponding to an information item is presented. But the method is ambiguous (e.g., the sound indicates several possible information items).

Systems and methods of detecting language and natural language strings for text to speech synthesis

TL;DR: In this article, an algorithm for synthesizing speech used to identify media assets is presented. But this algorithm is implemented on a system including several dedicated render engines, and the system may be part of a back end coupled to a front end including storage for media assets and associated synthesized speech, and a request processor for receiving and processing requests that result in providing the synthesised speech.

Intelligent assistant for home automation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a system for using a virtual assistant to control electronic devices, where a user can speak an input in natural language form to a user device, which can forward the commands to the appropriate one or more electronic devices for execution.

Switching between text data and audio data based on a mapping

TL;DR: In this paper, a mapping between audio data and text data, whether the mapping is created automatically or manually, is presented. And the mapping can be used to determine where an annotation created in one media context (e.g., audio) will be consumed in another media context.

Fusion, propagation, and structuring in belief networks

TL;DR: It is shown that if the network is singly connected (e.g. tree-structured), then probabilities can be updated by local propagation in an isomorphic network of parallel and autonomous processors and that the impact of new information can be imparted to all propositions in time proportional to the longest path in the network.

Information needs in office practice: are they being met?

TL;DR: The self-reported information needs of 47 physicians during a half day of typical office practice were studied, and physicians raised 269 questions about patient management, related to all medical specialties and were highly specific to the individual patient's problem.

Connectionist expert systems

TL;DR: Connectionist networks can be used as expert system knowledge bases and can be constructed from training examples by machine learning techniques, giving a way to automate the generation of expert systems for classification problems.
