Abstract. For a first-order formula ϕ(x; y) we introduce and study the characteristic sequence Pn : n < ω of hypergraphs defined by Pn(y1, . . . , yn) := (∃x) i≤n ϕ(x; ...
This paper proposes a technique for constructing independent parameter tying structures of mean and variance in HMMbased speech synthesis. Conventionally, mean and variance parame...
Theefficiency of algorithmsfor probabilistic inference in Bayesian networks can be improvedby exploiting independenceof causal influence. Thefactorized representation of independe...
We deal with several pcf problems; we characterize another version of exponentiation: number of -branches in a tree with nodes, deal with existence of independent sets in stable t...
A notable gap in research on statistical dependency parsing is a proper conditional probability distribution over nonprojective dependency trees for a given sentence. We exploit t...
