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.

Devices and methods for identifying a prompt corresponding to a voice input in a sequence of prompts

TL;DR: In this article, a characteristic time stamp can be identified for the voice input, and can be compared to periods or windows associated with each of the provided prompts, and the electronic device can then determine that the prompt corresponding to a window that includes the characteristic time stamps was the prompt to which the user wished to apply the voice inputs.

Interpreting and acting upon commands that involve sharing information with remote devices

TL;DR: In this article, a speech input from a first user, the speech input specifying a second user different from the first user and an information item to be shared with the second user is presented.

System and method for updating an adaptive speech recognition model

TL;DR: In this article, a method for updating an adaptive speech recognition model is presented, which is performed at a communications device including one or more processors and memory storing instructions for execution by the one or multiple processors.

Refining a search based on schedule items

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a method for augmented search requests from a user, where the search request specifies one or more search criteria for selecting one or several selection items from a respective selection domain, identifying one of the schedule items relevant to the search requests, and presenting the augmented search request or search results retrieved based on the augmented request to the user.

Context-aware unit selection

TL;DR: In this paper, a first candidate unit is selected from the first candidate units based on the first set of weights of the streams of information associated with input units, and then a second candidate unit was selected from second candidate units to concatenate with the first proposal unit.

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.
