Recent years saw an increased interest in the use and the construction of large corpora. With this increased interest and awareness has come an expansion in the application to kno...
Models such as pairwise conditional random fields (CRFs) are extremely popular in computer vision and various other machine learning disciplines. However, they have limited expre...
Unknown words are a hindrance to the performance of hand-crafted computational grammars of natural language. However, words with incomplete and incorrect lexical entries pose an e...
Accurate unsupervised learning of phonemes of a language directly from speech is demonstrated via an algorithm for joint unsupervised learning of the topology and parameters of a ...
Our goal is to automatically recognize and enroll new vocabulary in a multimodal interface. To accomplish this our technique aims to leverage the mutually disambiguating aspects o...
