Aspect-level sentiment analysis is a crucial problem in fine-grained sentiment analysis, which aims to automatically predict the sentiment polarity of the specific aspect in its context. Although remarkable progress has been made by deep learning bas...
Reservoir computing is a biologically inspired class of learning algorithms in which the intrinsic dynamics of a recurrent neural network are mined to produce target time series. Most existing reservoir computing algorithms rely on fully supervised l...
Food exploration is an essential survival behavior in organisms. To find food efficiently, many organisms use a foraging strategy called area-restricted search (ARS) wherein individuals first turn more frequently, restricting their search to one area...
