Using Relational Frame Theory to Teach Prepositions to Children with Autism
<p>Children with autism often demonstrate deficits with the use of pragmatic language, including prepositions. Training methods such as direct instruction have been successfully used to train prepositions, but often do not demonstrate generalization of the skill, nor use of the skill when applied …

Dynamical systems perspectives in machine learning
We look at two facets of machine learning from a perspective of dynamical systems, that is, the data generated from a dynamical system and the iterative inference algorithm posed as a dynamical system. In the former, we look at time series data which is generated from a mixture of processes. Each …
