It is important yet hard to identify navigational queries in Web search due to a lack of sufficient information in Web queries, which are typically very short. In this paper we st...
Long-span features, such as syntax, can improve language models for tasks such as speech recognition and machine translation. However, these language models can be difficult to u...
Timed automata provide useful state machine based representations for the validation and verification of realtime control systems. This paper introduces an algorithmic methodolog...
The standard approach to speaker verification is to extract cepstral features from the speech spectrum and model them by generative or discriminative techniques. We propose a nov...
Abstract—Due to their ability to model sequential data without making unnecessary independence assumptions, conditional random fields (CRFs) have become an increasingly popular ...
