In this paper we propose a quadratic programming approach to computing the edit distance of graphs. Whereas the standard edit distance is defined with respect to a minimum-cost ed...
This paper describes a framework for defining domain specific Feature Functions in a user friendly form to be used in a Maximum Entropy Markov Model (MEMM) for the Named Entity Re...
This work presents an approach for the recognition of the roles played by speakers participating in radio broadcast news (e.g. anchorman or guest). The approach includes two main ...
This paper presents a new method of extracting LF model based parameters using a spectral model matching approach. Strategies are described for overcoming some of the known diffic...
We present an emotion recognition system based on a probabilistic approach to adaptive processing of Facial Emotion Tree Structures (FETS). FETS are made up of localized Gabor fea...
