The paper focuses on developing effective importance sampling algorithms for mixed probabilistic and deterministic graphical models. The use of importance sampling in such graphi...
This paper addresses the problem of Voice Active Detection (VAD) in noisy environments. We introduce Variational Bayes approach to EM for classification to replace the heuristic ...
Abstract. The Information Retrieval community uses a variety of performance measures to evaluate the effectiveness of scoring functions. In this paper, we show how to adapt six pop...
In this paper, to automatically generate musical thumbnails that contain the main part of the original tune, we propose a new estimation method for identifying structure changes i...
Existing visual tracking methods are challenged by object and background appearance variations, which often occur in a long duration tracking. In this paper, we propose a combined ...
