Abstract. Query expansion is a well known method to improve the performance of information retrieval systems. In this work we have tested different approaches to extract the candid...
In this paper, we introduce a new approach to dialect recognition which relies on the hypothesis that certain phones are realized differently across dialects. Given a speaker'...
A novel approach for comparing sequences of observations using an explicit-expansion kernel is demonstrated. The kernel is derived using the assumption of the independence of the ...
The Fisher kernel is a generic framework which combines the benefits of generative and discriminative approaches to pattern classification. In this contribution, we propose to a...
We propose a simple nonparametric linear regression tool, known as kernel regression (KR), to estimate the illumination chromaticity. We design a Gaussian kernel whose bandwidth i...
