In this paper we revisit some basic configuration choices of HMMbased speech synthesis, such as waveform sampling rate, auditory frequency warping scale and the logarithmic scali...
Although Wikipedia has emerged as a powerful collaborative Encyclopedia on the Web, it is only partially multilingual as most of the content is in English and a small number of ot...
Controlled Sequential Bifurcation (CSB) is a factor-screening method for discrete-event simulations. It combines a multi-stage hypothesis testing procedure with the original Seque...
This paper proposes an approach to improve graph-based dependency parsing by using decision history. We introduce a mechanism that considers short dependencies computed in the ear...
In this paper, we present a new method to improve global routing results. By using an amplified congestion estimate to influence a rip-up and reroute approach, we obtain substanti...
