Ontologies for representation of folk song metadata
(2012)
The digital management of collections in museums, archives, libraries and galleries is an increasingly important part of cultural heritage studies. This paper describes a representation for folk song metadata, based on the ...
The Role of the Demand for Environmental Quality in Driving Transitions to Low-Polluting Energy Sources
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2012-08-14)
This policy briefing reports on research into historical examples where the public demanded environmental improvements, government may have responded to this demand and legislation introduced may helped lead to transitions ...
Low Climate Stabilisation under Diverse Growth and Convergence Scenarios
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2012-08-01)
In the last decade, a few papers have analysed the consequences of achieving the greenhouse gas concentration levels necessary to maintain global temperature increases below 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels. ...
Oracles for audio chord estimation
(2012)
This paper explores how audio chord estimation could improve if information about chord boundaries or beat onsets is revealed by an oracle. Chord estimation at the frame level is compared with three simulations, each using ...
Music-Theoretic Estimation of Chords and Keys from Audio
(2012)
This paper proposes a new method for local key and chord estimation from audio signals. This method relies primarily on principles from music theory, and does not require any training on a corpus of labelled audio files. ...
Learning from human teaching strategies
(2012)
Recent works in the area of adaptive education systems point out the importance of aumenting the student model to improve the personalization and adaptation to the learner by means of several aspects such as emotions, user ...
Obtaining teaching expertise from F2F learning interactions
(2012)
Learning environments are commonly used nowadays, but they exclude face-to-face interaction among teachers and students what is a successful basis of traditional education. On the other hand, in many cases teachers are ...
Environmental fiscal reform and unemployment in Spain in the presence of an informal sector
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2012-10-26)
This policy briefing reports the results obtained in two recent papers (Markandya et al 2012 and Gonzalez-Eguino et al 2012) where the role of Enviromental Fiscal Reform (EFR) is revisited for the case of Spain. We analyse ...
New methods for generating populations in Markov network based EDAs: Decimation strategies and model-based template recombination
(2012-12-27)
Methods for generating a new population are a fundamental component of estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs). They serve to transfer the information contained in the probabilistic model to the new generated population. ...
Using network mesures to test evolved NK-landscapes
(2012)
In this paper we empirically investigate which are the structural characteristics that can help to predict the complexity of NK-landscape instances for estimation of distribution algorithms. To this end, we evolve instances ...
