Abstract:
This thesis investigates language acquisition and evolution, using the methodologies of Bayesian inference and expression-induction modelling, making specific reference to colour term typology, and syntactic acquisition. In order to test Berlin and Kay's (1969) hypothesis that the typological patterns observed in basic colour term systems are produced by a process of cultural evolution under the influence of universal aspects of human neurophysiology, an expression-induction model was created.

Abstract:
A major task facing a number of different procuring agencies is the assessment of the developmental reliability of a product as contractors incrementally provide information. These agencies would like to use structured quantitative methodologies, as opposed to unstructured assessment currently adopted, to evaluate reliability throughout the life of a development programme as additional information becomes available. Due to resource constraints, any developed methodology must be cost and time efficient. This research attempts to develop a methodology for customers that is capable of assessing t

Abstract:
For very large visual datasets, producing expert ground-truth data for training supervised algorithms can represent a substantial human effort. In these situations there is scope for the use of unsupervised approaches that can model collections of images and automatically summarise their content. The primary motivation for this thesis comes from the problem of labelling large visual datasets of the seafloor obtained by an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) for ecological analysis. It is expensive to label this data, as taxonomical experts for the specific region are required, whereas automati

Abstract:
In a range of different scientific fields, deterministic calculations for which there is no analytic solution must be approximated numerically. The use of numerical approximations is necessary, but introduces a discrepancy between the true solution and the numerical solution that is generated. Bayesian methods are used to account for uncertainties introduced through numerical approximation in a variety of situations. To solve problems in Bayesian sequential experimental design, a sequence of complex integration and optimisation steps must be performed; for most problems, these calculations hav

Abstract:
This dissertation demonstrates, in a non-semantic information-theoretic framework, how the principles of 'maximisation of relevant information' and 'information parsimony' can guide the adaptation of an agent towards agent-agent interaction. Central to this thesis is the concept of digested information; I argue that an agent is intrinsically motivated to a.) process the relevant information in its environment and b.) display this information in its own actions. From the perspective of similar agents, who require similar information, this differentiates other agents from the rest of the environ

Abstract:
Speaker diarization is the process of annotating an input audio with information that attributes temporal regions of the audio signal to their respective sources, which may include both speech and non-speech events. For speech regions, the diarization system also specifies the locations of speaker boundaries and assign relative speaker labels to each homogeneous segment of speech. In short, speaker diarization systems effectively answer the question of ‘who spoke when’. There are several important applications for speaker diarization technology, such as facilitating speaker indexing systems
