Data centers are a major consumer of electricity and a significant fraction of their energy use is devoted to cooling the data center. Recent prototype deployments have investigat...
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...
This paper presents a sound source (talker) localization method using only a single microphone, where a HMM (Hidden Markov Model) of clean speech is introduced to estimate the aco...
Image classification is a critical task for both humans and computers. One of the challenges lies in the large scale of the semantic space. In particular, humans can recognize tens...
We propose a novel hybrid recommendation model in which user preferences and item features are described in terms of semantic concepts defined in domain ontologies. The exploitati...
