A new hierarchical nonparametric Bayesian model is proposed for the problem of multitask learning (MTL) with sequential data. Sequential data are typically modeled with a hidden M...
Semi-continuous acoustic models, where the output distributions for all Hidden Markov Model states share a common codebook of Gaussian density functions, are a well-known and prov...
We study the problem of topic segmentation of manually transcribed speech in order to facilitate information extraction from dialogs. Our approach is based on a combination of mul...
