It seems like everyone these days is downloading, watching, and sharing videos from video-sharing sites like YouTube, Google Video, MetaCafe, DailyMotion, Veoh, Break, and a ton of other similar sites. Whether you want to watch the video on your iPod while working out, insert it into a PowerPoint presentation to add some spice, or simply download a video before it’s removed, it’s quite essential to know how to download, convert, and play these videos. There are basically two ways to download videos off the Internet and that’s how I’ll split up this post: either via a web app or via a desktop application. Personally, I like the web applications better simply because you don’t have to clutter up and slow down your computer with all kinds of software! UPDATE: MakeUseOf put together an excellent list of the best websites for watching movies, TV shows, documentaries and standups online.

  • Designing a User Interface for the Innovative E-Mail Client Semester Thesis
    Designing a User Interface for the Innovative E-mail Client Semester Thesis Student: Alexandra Burns Supervising Professor: Prof. Bertrand Meyer Supervising Assistants: Stephanie Balzer, Joseph N. Ruskiewicz December 2005 - April 2006 1 Abstract Email Clients have become a crucial application, both in business and for per- sonal use. The term information overload refers to the time consuming issue of keeping up with large amounts of incoming and stored email. Users face this problem on a daily basis and therefore benefit from an email client that allows them to efficiently search, display and store their email. The goal of this thesis is to build a graphical user interface for the innovative email client developed in a previous master thesis. It also explores the possibilities of designing a user interface outside of the business rules that apply for commercial solutions. 1 Contents 1 Introduction 4 2 Existing Work 6 2.1 ReMail ................................. 6 2.1.1 Methods ............................ 6 2.1.2 Problems Identified ...................... 7 2.1.3 Proposed Solutions ...................... 7 2.1.4 Assessment .......................... 8 2.2 Inner Circle .............................. 8 2.2.1 Methods ............................ 8 2.2.2 Problems Identified ...................... 9 2.2.3 Proposed Solutions ...................... 9 2.2.4 Assessment .......................... 10 2.3 TaskMaster .............................. 10 2.3.1 Methods ............................ 10 2.3.2 Problems Identified ...................... 11 2.3.3 Proposed Solution ...................... 11 2.3.4 Assessment .......................... 12 2.4 Email Overload ............................ 12 2.4.1 Methods ............................ 12 2.4.2 Problems Identified ...................... 13 2.4.3 Proposed Solutions ...................... 13 2.4.4 Assessment .......................... 14 3 Existing Solutions 16 3.1 Existing Email Clients .......................

  • Using Your Desktop
    Valade_06.qxd 3/31/05 2:58 PM Page 73 CHAPTER 6 Using Your Desktop inux provides two basic types of interface for you to use when working with your computer: GUI (graphical user interface) and CLI (command-line interface). An L overview of the interface types is provided in Chapter 5. In this chapter, the most common type of interface, a GUI called a desktop, is discussed in detail. The CLI is dis- cussed in detail in Chapter 7. Linux can start without a desktop, but most users prefer to have Linux start with a desk- top. The installation instructions provided in Chapter 4 result in a desktop opening at startup. A desktop interface functions as the top of your desk, supplying an empty work- ing surface and a set of tools. Different distributions provide different desktops, but most provide KDE (K Desktop Environment) and/or GNOME (Gnu Network Object Model Environment)—the Big Two of Linux desktops. The default desktop differs by distribution. For instance, Fedora defaults to GNOME, and Mandrake/SuSE defaults to KDE. However, you can change the default once you decide which desktop you prefer. KDE and GNOME are open source software, each developed in a project of its own. New versions are released independently of Linux releases or the release of any specific Linux distribution. As a result, different distributions include different KDE and/or GNOME versions. In addition, KDE and GNOME are very configurable. Almost everything about them can be changed. Consequently, KDE and GNOME don’t look exactly the same in different distributions or versions of distributions.

  • Multiresolution Recurrent Neural Networks: an Application to Dialogue Response Generation
    Multiresolution Recurrent Neural Networks: An Application to Dialogue Response Generation Iulian Vlad Serban∗◦ Tim Klinger University of Montreal IBM Research 2920 chemin de la Tour, T. J. Watson Research Center, Montréal, QC, Canada Yorktown Heights, NY, USA Gerald Tesauro Kartik Talamadupula Bowen Zhou IBM Research IBM Research IBM Research T. J. Watson Research Center, T. J.

There are many ways to estimate or learn the high-level coarse tokens, but we argue that a simple extraction procedure is sufficient to capture a wealth of high-level discourse semantics. Such procedure allows training the multiresolution recurrent neural network by maximizing the exact joint log-likelihood over both sequences. In contrast to the standard log- likelihood objective w.r.t. natural language tokens (word perplexity), optimizing the joint log-likelihood biases the model towards modeling high-level abstractions. We apply the proposed model to the task of dialogue response generation in arXiv:1606.00776v2 [cs.CL] 14 Jun 2016 two challenging domains: the Ubuntu technical support domain, and Twitter conversations. On Ubuntu, the model outperforms competing approaches by a substantial margin, achieving state-of-the-art results according to both automatic evaluation metrics and a human evaluation study.
