This paper presents a new unsupervised algorithm (WordEnds) for inferring word boundaries from transcribed adult conversations. Phone ngrams before and after observed pauses are u...
We present MI-CRF, a conditional random field (CRF) model for multiple instance learning (MIL). MI-CRF models bags as nodes in a CRF with instances as their states. It combines di...
The cross-entropy method (CE) developed by R. Rubinstein is an elegant practical principle for simulating rare events. The method approximates the probability of the rare event by...
Abstract--In this paper we investigate the sparsity and recognition capabilities of two approximate Bayesian classification algorithms, the multi-class multi-kernel Relevance Vecto...

We describe a new algorithm for protein classi cation and the detection of remote homologs. The rationale is to exploit both vertical and horizontal information of a multiple alig...
