Siamese neural networks applied to algorithm selection in recommender systems
Siamese neural networks applied to algorithm selection in recommender systems The performance of a recommendation algorithm varies in different scenarios, and intuitions about what algorithms are best suited to a given scenario can be elusive even to recommender system experts. Furthermore, choosing a single ...
Foundations of animal-computer interaction explored with monkeys of the Helsinki Zoo
Foundations of animal-computer interaction explored with monkeys of the Helsinki Zoo Much like humans, animals have also been using computers for a long time. Historically animals have used computer technology in space, used lexigrams (symbol keyboards) to form language, and dolphins have used underwater keyboards. Drawing ...
