— The operation of V1 simple cells in primates has been traditionally modelled with linear models resembling Gabor filters, whereas the functionality of subsequent visual cortic...
Transformation of both the response variable and the predictors is commonly used in fitting regression models. However, these transformation methods do not always provide the maxi...
In this paper, we propose a novel speaker adaptation technique, regularized-MLLR, for Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) systems. This method uses a linear combination of ...

We consider the task of acoustic system identification, where the input signal undergoes a memoryless nonlinear transformation before convolving with an unknown linear system. We...
In the framework of a face verification system using local features and a Gaussian Mixture Model based classifier, we address the problem of non-frontal face verification (when on...
