Cecelia: One of the reasons I love reading fictonal stories is that
Cecelia: Because we behave out of our emotions and prejudices in real life, it can be so hard to have empathy at all
Cecelia: So at least I want to be able to empathize while reading fiction
Nolan: I read an analogy recently
Cecelia: Oh
Cecelia: What kind of analogy?
Nolan: That people don’t call crime writers sociopaths or think they’re serial killers just because they write stories where sometimes very gruesome things happen and very intricate schemes are included
Nolan: And they don’t say bad things about those who read or watch such titles either
Nolan: Violence
Nolan: In action films, too, they can be very graphic
Cecelia: Yeah, that's true
Cecelia: Sometimes I find it difficult to watch, it can be so extreme
Nolan: And all of that is illegal and frowned on in real life
Nolan: But people think it’s okay to enjoy it when it’s fiction and don’t think of the creators as monsters either
Nolan: So why are people so ready to jump at those who create other “controversial” stories? Well, I guess it's a difficult topic, I get it that some things shouldn't be promoted, perhaps, but should we pretend they don't exist? I'm not sure myself
|
Cecelia loves reading fiction because she believes it helps her empathize.

#Person1#: Thank you. Steven. That was the most magnificent meal I've had abroad. You'll have to let me reciprocate the next time you're in Beijing.
#Person2#: Don't worry about it, Lin. That's no big deal. You know, Americans appreciate China's rich culinary culture. Just excuse me for a second while I check the number here and figure out how much to give the waiter. Hmm, by the way, what do you do about tipping in China?
#Person1#: We don't .
#Person2#: No tipping? Now that's what I call a civilized system.
#Person1#: At hotels and some restaurants they add a service charge to the bill, but other than that , tipping isn't customary.

#Person2#: Is that a lot? Sixty-four?
#Person1#: Yes, it is. It should be enough for any student needs you might have. What department are you in?

#Person1#: Well, so you will mostly be using word processing, for writing papers. I recommend the Corel Word Perfect program for word processing. We can talk about software later. Let's talk about your hardware first. We have a special deal on right now. I should tell you about it, as it only goes until next Tuesday. If you buy one of these fifteen-inch color monitors with a Power Macintosh G3, you can actually get 30 percent off the usual sale price.

#Person2#: Hmm. Hey, wait. This has an Apple on it. Is this an Apple computer?
#Person1#: Yes, it's a Macintosh. It's Apple. Mcintosh and Apple are the same thing.
#Person2#: I don't want Macintosh. I want PC.
#Person1#: I'm sorry, but our university computer center only sells Macintosh equipment.
#Person2#: What? Are you serious?
#Person1#: Yes.
#Person2#: But nobody uses Macintosh!
#Person1#: That's not true. Most of the students and professors in the university here use Macintosh. They find it is better for writing and word-processing, and that is what students mostly do. May I ask where you're from?
#Person2#: Yes, I'm from Taiwan.
#Person1#: Well, I know that in most Asian countries Apple is not very popular. But here in America, especially in universities and publishing companies, Apple is very commonly used.
#Person2#: But I need a computer that can handle writing in Chinese.
#Person1#: There are several Chinese writing programs you can use with Macintosh. Chinese is no problem for Apple.
#Person2#: Hmm. I think I should ask some of my friends for advice before I make a decision. I'm sorry.
#Person1#: No, don't be sorry. It's reasonable to ask your friends. But believe me, most of the students here in the university-Asian students included-most of them use Apple.
#Person2#: Well, thanks for your advice. I will probably come back later.
#Person1#: You're very welcome. Here is my card, if you need any help.
|
#Person2# wants to buy a computer with a lot of memory and a printer. #Person1# recommends the Apple Macintosh which is popular among most of the students and professors in the university, but #Person2# wants a PC. So #Person2# will ask some friends for advice to consider whether to buy Macintosh.

#Person1#: When did you find out?
#Person2#: About 12 o'clock, when I came home from work.
#Person1#: Apparently forced entry. The lock is battered to pieces.
#Person2#: I wonder how the burglar did it.
#Person1#: He is so unskillful. I have never seen such an awkward burglar.
#Person2#: That's because we have a strong lock.
#Person1#: Probably. Let's check the inside then.
#Person2#: Did you find anything?
#Person1#: Yes, the house was in a terrible mess. It was almost turned upside down by the burglar.

#Person1#: Hey Lydia, what are you reading?
#Person2#: I'm looking at my horoscope for this month! My outlook is very positive. It says that I should take a vacation to someplace exotic, and that I will have a passionate summer fling!
#Person1#: What are you talking about? Let me see that. . . What are horoscopes?
#Person2#: It's a prediction of your month, based on your zodiac sign. You have a different sign for the month and date you were born in. I was born on April 15th, so I'm an Aries. When were you born?
#Person1#: January 5th.
#Person2#: Let's see. . . you're a Capricorn. It says that you will be feeling stress at work, but you could see new, exciting developments in your love life. Looks like we'll both have interesting summers!
#Person1#: That's bogus. I don't feel any stress at work, and my love life is practically nonexistent. This zodiac stuff is all a bunch of nonsense.
#Person2#: No, it's not, your astrology sign can tell you a lot about your personality. See? It says that an Aries is energetic and loves to socialize.
#Person1#: Well, you certainly match those criteria, but they're so broad they could apply to anyone. What does it say about me?
#Person2#: A Capricorn is serious-minded and practical. She likes to do things in conventional ways. That sounds just like you!

predator: As long as you stay below five drinks you should be fine. If I start sniffing around your neck, you might want to skedaddle.
thief: well it looks like it is a four drink maximum for me today
predator: Good on you lad - remember, don't drink and ride, or you will become a bloodless souless husk. I need to work on the slogan to make it catchy, but it has been awfully effective so far.
thief: can't help but notice the bulge in your pocket, what ya got in there

Professor D: But it s another thing to try
PhD A: So this is w w i wa wa this is one thing this this could be could help could help perhaps to reduce language dependency and for the noise part we could combine this with other approaches like well the Kleinschmidt approach So the d the idea of putting all the noise that we can find inside a database I think Kleinschmidt was using more than fifty different noises to train his network and So this is one approach and the other is multi band that I think is more robust to the noisy changes So perhaps I think something like multi band trained on a lot of noises with features based targets could could could help
Professor D: if you i i It s interesting thought maybe if you just trained up I mean w one one fantasy would be you have something like articulatory targets and you have pause some reasonable database but then which is copied over many times with a range of different noises And If Cuz what you are trying to pause do is come up with a a core reasonable feature set which is then going to be used by the the HMM pause system
PhD A: So The future work is pause well try to connect to the to make to plug in the system to the OGI system there are still open questions there where to put the MLP basically
Professor D: And I guess you know the the the real open question I mean e you there s lots of open questions but one of the core quote comment `` open questions `` for that is if we take the you know the best ones here maybe not just the best one but the best few or something You want the most promising group from these other experiments how well do they do over a range of these different tests not just the Italian ? y pause Right ? And then then see pause again how We know that there s a mis there s a a a loss in performance when the neural net is trained on conditions that are different than than we are going to test on but well if you look over a range of these different tests how well do these different ways of combining the straight features with the MLP features stand up over that range ? That s that that seems like the the the real question And if you know that So if you just take PLP with the double deltas Assume that s the p the feature look at these different ways of combining it And take let s say just take multi English because that works pretty well for the training And just look take that case and then look over all the different things How does that How does that compare between the
PhD A: So all the all the test sets you mean
Professor D: All the different test sets and for and for the couple different ways that you have of of of combining them pause How well do they stand up over the
PhD A: Mmm And perhaps doing this for cha changing the variance of the streams and so on pause getting different scaling
Professor D: That s another possibility if you have time
PhD A: so thi this sh would be more working on the MLP as an additional path instead of an insert to the to their diagram Cuz Perhaps the insert idea is kind of strange because nnn they they make LDA and then we will again add a network does discriminate anal nnn that discriminates
Professor D: pause It s a little strange but on the other hand they did it before
PhD A: And because also perhaps we know that the when we have very good features the MLP does not help So I do not know
Professor D: the other thing though is that So we we want to get their path running here right ? If so we can add this other stuff as an additional path right ?
PhD A: the the way we want to do
Professor D: Cuz they are doing LDA pause RASTA They are doing LDA RASTA
PhD A: the way we want to do it perhaps is to just to get the VAD labels and the final features So they will send us the Well provide us with the feature files and with VAD binary labels so that we can get our MLP features and filter them with the VAD and then combine them with their f feature stream So
Professor D: I see So we So First thing of course we would want to do there is to make sure that when we get those labels of final features is that we get the same results as them Without putting in a second path
PhD A: You mean Oh ! Just re re retraining r retraining the HTK ?
Professor D: just th w i i Just to make sure that we pause have we understand properly what things are our very first thing to do is to is to double check that we get the exact same results as them on HTK I mean I do not know that we need to r pause Do we need to retrain I mean we can just take the re their training files also But pause But just for the testing jus just make sure that we get the same results pause so we can duplicate it before we add in another Cuz otherwise you know we will not know what things mean
PhD A: Oh OK And so fff LogRASTA I do not know if we want to We can try pause networks with LogRASTA filtered features Mmm I m sorry ? Well But
Professor D: Oh ! You know the other thing is when you say comb I m I m sorry I m interrupting comment that you when you are talking about combining multiple features Suppose we said `` OK we ve got these different features and so forth but PLP seems pause pretty good `` If we take the approach that Mike did and have I mean one of the situations we have is we have these different conditions We have different languages we have different different noises pause If we have some drastically different conditions and we just train up different M L Ps pause with them And put put them together What what What Mike found for the reverberation case at least I mean I mean who knows if it will work for these other ones That you did have nice interpolative effects That is that yes if you knew pause what the reverberation condition was going to be and you trained for that then you got the best results But if you had say a heavily reverberation ca heavy reverberation case and a no reverberation case and then you fed the thing something that was a modest amount of reverberation then you would get some result in between the two So it was sort of behaved reasonably Is tha that a fair
PhD A: So you you think it s perhaps better to have several M L but
Professor D: It works better if pause what ? I see Well see i oc You were doing some something that was So maybe the analogy is not quite right You were doing something that was in way a little better behaved You had reverb for a single variable which was re reverberation Here the problem seems to be is that we do not have a hug a really huge net with a really huge amount of training data But we have s f pause for this kind of task I would think pause sort of a modest amount I mean a million frames actually is not that much We have a modest amount of of training data from a couple different conditions and then in that and the real situation is that there s enormous variability that we anticipate in the test set in terms of language and noise type and pause channel characteristic sort of all over the map A bunch of different dimensions And so I m just concerned that we do not really have pause the data to train up I mean one of the things that we were seeing is that when we added in we still do not have a good explanation for this but we are seeing that we are adding in a fe few different databases and the performance is getting worse and when we just take one of those databases that s a pretty good one it actually is is is is is better And that says to me yes that you know there might be some problems with the pronunciation models that some of the databases we are adding in or something like that But one way or another pause we do not have seemingly the ability pause to represent in the neural net of the size that we have all of the variability pause that we are going to be covering So that I m I m I m hoping that this is another take on the efficiency argument you are making which is I m hoping that with moderate size neural nets that if we if they look at more constrained conditions they they will have enough parameters to really represent them Mm Mm Mm
PhD A: So doing both is is not is not right you mean or ?
Professor D: I I just sort of have a feeling I mean i i e The I think it s true that the OGI folk found that using LDA pause RASTA which is a kind of LogRASTA it s just that they have the I mean it s done in the log domain as I recall and it s it it s just that they d it s trained up right ? That that benefitted from on line normalization So they did At least in their case it did seem to be somewhat complimentary So will it be in our case where we are using the neural net ? I mean they they were not not using the neural net I do not know OK so the other things you have here are trying to improve results from a single Make stuff better OK And CPU memory issues We ve been sort of ignoring that have not we ?
PhD A: so I do not know But we have to address the problem of CPU and memory we
Professor D: but I li Well I think My impression You you folks have been looking at this more than me But my impression was that there was a a a a strict constraint on the delay but beyond that it was kind of that using less memory was better and using less CPU was better Something like that
PhD A: So but we ve I do not know We have to get some reference point to where we Well what s a reasonable number ? Perhaps be because if it s if it s too large or large or
Professor D: well I do not think we are completely off the wall I mean I think that if we if we have I mean the ultimate fall back that we could do If we find I mean we may find that we we are not really going to worry about the M L You know if the MLP ultimately after all is said and done does not really help then we will not have it in If the MLP does we find help us enough in some conditions we might even have more than one MLP We could simply say that is done on the server And it s We do the other manipulations that we are doing before that So I I I think I think that s pause that s OK So I think the key thing was this plug into OGI what what are they What are they going to be working Do we know what they are going to be working on while we take their features
PhD A: They are They are starting to wor work on some kind of multi band So This that was Pratibha Sunil what was he doing do you remember ? He was doing something new or ?
PhD B: I I do not re I did not remember Maybe he s working with pause neural network
PhD A: I do not think so Trying to tune wha networks ? I think they were also mainly well working a little bit of new things like networks and multi band but mainly trying to tune their their system as it is now to just trying to get the best from this this architecture
Professor D: OK So I guess the way it would work is that you would get There would be some point where you say `` OK this is their version one `` or whatever and we get these VAD labels and features and so forth for all these test sets from them and then that s what we work with We have a certain level we try to improve it with this other path and then when it gets to be January some point we say `` OK we we have shown that we can improve this in this way So now pause pause what s your newest version ? `` And then maybe they will have something that s better and then we we would combine it This is always hard I mean I I I used to work pause with folks who were trying to improve a good HMM system with with a neural net system and it was pause a common problem that you would Oh and this Actually this is true not just for neural nets but just for in general if people were pause working with rescoring N best lists or lattices that come came from a mainstream recognizer You get something from the the other site at one point and you work really hard on making it better with rescoring But they are working really hard too So by the time pause you have improved their score they have also improved their score and now there is not any difference So I guess at some point we will have to comment I I do not know I think we are we are integrated a little more tightly than happens in a lot of those cases I think at the moment they they say that they have a better thing we can we e e What takes all the time here is that th we are trying so many things presumably in a in a day we could turn around taking a new set of things from them and and rescoring it right ? So Well OK No this is I think this is good I think that the most wide open thing is the issues about the you know different trainings You know da training targets and noises and so forth
PhD A: Mmm So we we can for we c we can forget combining multiple features and MLG perhaps
Professor D: That s sort of wide open
PhD A: or focus more on the targets and on the training data and ?
Professor D: I think for right now I th I I really liked MESSAGE And I think that you know one of the things I liked about it is has such different temporal properties And I think that there is ultimately a really good potential for you know bringing in things with different temporal properties but we only have limited time and there s a lot of other things we have to look at And it seems like much more core questions are issues about the training set and the training targets and fitting in what we are doing with what they are doing and you know with limited time I think pause we have to start cutting down So I think so And then you know once we having gone through this pause process and trying many different things I would imagine that certain things come up that you are curious about that you would not getting to and so when the dust settles from the evaluation I think that would time to go back and take whatever intrigued you most you know got you most interested and and and work with it you know for the next round as you can tell from these numbers nothing that any of us is going to do is actually going to completely solve the problem So So comment there will still be plenty to do Barry you ve been pretty quiet Well I figured that but That what what what were you involved in in this primarily ?
Grad C: helping out preparing Well they ve been kind of running all the experiments and stuff and I ve been w doing some work on the on the preparing all all the data for them to to train and to test on Right now I m I m focusing mainly on this final project I m working on in Jordan s class
Professor D: I see Right What s what s that ?
Grad C: I m trying to So there was a paper in ICSLP about this this multi band belief net structure comment This guy did basically it was two H M Ms with with a with a dependency arrow between the two H M And so I want to try try coupling them instead of t having an arrow that that flows from one sub band to another sub band I want to try having the arrows go both ways And I m just going to see if if that that better models pause asynchrony in any way or pause
Professor D: Oh ! OK Well that sounds interesting OK Alright Anything to you wanted to No OK Silent partner in the in the meeting Oh we got a laugh out of him that s good OK everyone h must contribute to the our our sound sound files here OK so speaking of which if we do not have anything else that we need You happy with where we are ? Know know wher know where we are going ? You are happy OK everyone pause should be happy OK You do not have to be happy You are almost done OK
Grad E: Al actually I should mention So if comment about the Linux machine `` Swede `` So it looks like the neural net tools are installed there And Dan Ellis comment I believe knows something about using that machine so If people are interested in in getting jobs running on that maybe I could help with that
PhD A: but I do not know if we really need now a lot of machines Well we could start computing another huge table but we
Professor D: Well I think we want a different table at least Right ? I mean there s there s some different things that we are trying to get at now So as far as you can tell you are actually OK on C on CPU for training and so on ?
PhD A: Ah I think so Well more is always better but mmm I do not think we have to train a lot of networks now that we know We just select what works pause fine and try to improve this
Professor D: And we are OK on And we are OK on disk ?
PhD A: and It s OK Well sometimes we have some problems
Professor D: But they are correctable problems Yes I m familiar with that one OK Alright so comment since we did not ha get a channel on for you comment you do not have to read any digits but the rest of us will is it on ? Well We did not I think I will not touch anything cuz I m afraid of making the driver crash which it seems to do pause pretty easily OK thanks OK so we will I will start off the connect the Well let s hope it works Maybe you should go first and see so that you are OK
Grad C: your battery s going down too Carmen s battery is d going down too
Professor D: Oh OK Why do not you go next then OK Guess we are done OK so Just finished digits so Well it s good I think I guess we can turn off our microphones now
Grad C: Just pull the batteries out

Marty: Don’t go there, you’re exaggerating again, as usual
Gabrielle: Stop blaming me for everything!
Marty: It’s just common sense.
Gabrielle: It ain’t me who can’t even remember the date of our first date!
Marty: I’m not going to celebrate it every month, it’s stupid
Gabrielle: So I’m stupid, huh
Marty: I haven’t said anything like that, calm down!
Gabrielle: It basically means the same to me
Marty: Many things mean sth to you but not to anyone else.
Gabrielle: You know what, I’m done, I’m not going to listen to those ratty comments of yours, I deserve someone who will treat me right
Marty: Like hell you do! Go on, find someone else, nobody will accept your behavior like me…
Gabrielle: You’re just an arrogant bastard, that’s it
Marty: Maybe I am, arrogant and much happier without you.
Gabrielle: So that’s it, just like that?
Marty: It’s basically what you want, right? That’s what you said
Gabrielle: Goodbye, you were a terrible mistake…

poor subsistence farmer: Oh, how I wish my crops would grow!
laborsmen: Hello farmer. Why aren't your crops growing?
poor subsistence farmer: I'm afraid the land just isn't very good. The king allows me to live on it but I just can't seem to profit from it.
laborsmen: Hmm that's unfortunate. Perhaps ask the king for better land
poor subsistence farmer: You know his reputation.
laborsmen: Well good luck with that then. Not much I can do for you
poor subsistence farmer: What do you do for work?
laborsmen: I am in charge of the most important section of the castle
poor subsistence farmer: Which section is that?
laborsmen: Where the royal family resides
poor subsistence farmer: Ah, yes of course. Do you think you might put in a word for me?

a baby dragon: Thanks, my new friend. When will the wizard be back? I want to meet him.
golem: I'm not sure, to be honest. He's very busy. I just stay around here and do chores, try to help out. He is usually tired when he returns, but he'll be excited to meet you.
a baby dragon: Is he nice?
golem: Nice? I wish there was a word better to describe him... nice does not even begin to. He brought me to life from mud! He is wonderful!

fly: I'd love to get close to a fairy, they smell delicious.
mosquito: Ah, but be careful. They may fly so high to get away from you and you might get too tired chasing after them.
fly: I never get tired, all I do is fly all day.
mosquito: The air is thinner up there. Have you ever flew way up there close to the clouds?
fly: I have not, all I need is close to the ground.
mosquito: It is not good for you nor I up there. Air too thin. Like I said, it is hard to catch up with them down here. Maybe we can get lucky if we try together? Lets ask for bird for help? The fairy loves the birds
fly: Here, I have the bird. Now what shall we do?
mosquito: We need to ask the bird if he will let us hide on him while he gets close to the fairy. I think he would help us out, as long as we promise not to harm the fairy.
fly: That's a brilliant plan. I am glad we met.

#Person1#: Hey Rocky! You've been sitting around all night. Get out and dance with someone like that woman over there.
#Person2#: No way! She looks like the intellectual type.
#Person1#: Oh come on man! What kind of woman do you like?
#Person2#: I want a woman who's affectionate and fulfills my every need, and that woman over there is just not the right type.
#Person1#: Hey. Where have you been? Times are changing, and you're never going to find a woman who will shine your shoes and pick up after you all the time. Wake up.
#Person2#: Oh really? I meet a lot of women like that, but not at this party. [Oh.] I also prefer a woman who'll stay home, cook, clean, and watch the kids.
#Person1#: Okay, but what are your household responsibilities once you get home from work?
#Person2#: Hmm. Eat, watch TV, and throw out the garbage.
#Person1#: Wait, wait, wait. I can't believe I'm hearing this. In fact, you're never going to get married. I recently read a news report that said 40 percent of women don't think their husbands do their share around the house, and you seem to be that type.
#Person2#: Well, that's the way I am, but what's YOUR idea of the perfect woman?
#Person1#: Well, I like a woman who's outgoing, caring, and non-judgmental about people's differences, and it bothers me when people think their the center of the universe ... like someone I know.
#Person2#: Well, that's nice for you, but that doesn't change my point of view. I guess I'll have to go home to a TV dinner and my dog, Rusty.
#Person1#: Hey, and if I stick with you, this is going to be a long, lonely night. Say hello to Rusty for me.

thief: Well gravedigger I think you'll need more help than just the peasant over there to complete this building. Maybe i could help in return for your silence
gravedigger: And give you a complete Itinerary of whats inside this building? I think not!
thief: I didn't want it to come to this
gravedigger: Hold this peasant I will have to deal with this myself!

#Person1#: Good morning, sir. Can I help you?
#Person2#: I want to make an inquiry about leaving my car with you. You see, I am going abroad and I don't want to take the car. But I will need it when I get back.
#Person1#: I see, sir. Well, we can offer you full parking service for as long as you wish.
#Person2#: Good. I am going to Washington for two weeks.
