Control Improvisation

Authors: Daniel J. Fremont, Alexandre Donzé, Sanjit A. Seshia, and David Wessel

Abstract
We formalize and analyze a new automata-theoretic problem termed control improvisation. Given an automaton, the problem is to produce an improviser, a probabilistic algorithm that randomly generates words in its language, subject to two additional constraints: the satisfaction of an admissibility predicate, and the exhibition of a specified amount of randomness. Control improvisation has multiple applications, including, for example, generating musical improvisations that satisfy rhythmic and melodic constraints, where admissibility is determined by some bounded divergence from a reference melody. We analyze the complexity of the control improvisation problem, giving cases where it is efficiently solvable and cases where it is #P-hard or undecidable. We also show how symbolic techniques based on Boolean satisfiability (SAT) solvers can be used to approximately solve some of the intractable cases.

Towards a Media Interpretation Framework for the Semantic Web

Authors: S. Espinosa Peraldi, A. Kaya, S. Melzer, Ralf Möller, and M. Wessel

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8091, Logic and Probability for Scene Interpretation (2008)


Abstract
We present a framework for media interpretation that leverages low-level information extraction to a higher level of abstraction in order to support semantics-based information retrieval for the Semantic Web. The overall goal of the framework is to provide high-level content descriptions of documents for maximizing precision and recall of semantics-based information retrieval.
