⎯The optimum maximum voiced frequency (MVF) estimation-based two-band excitation for hidden Markov model-based speech synthesis is presented. An analysis-by-synthesis scheme is a...
We consider a conic-quadratic (and in particular a quadratically constrained) optimization problem with uncertain data, known only to reside in some uncertainty set U. The robust ...
This paper proposes to use monolingual collocations to improve Statistical Machine Translation (SMT). We make use of the collocation probabilities, which are estimated from monoli...
