We compare and contrast two different models for detecting sentence-like units in continuous speech. The first approach uses hidden Markov sequence models based on N-grams and max...

The quadratic discriminant (QD) classifier has proved to be simple and effective in many pattern recognition problems. However, it requires the computation of the inverse of the sa...
We investigate maximum likelihood parameter learning in Conditional Random Fields (CRF) and present an empirical study of pseudo-likelihood (PL) based approximations of the paramet...
The maximum likelihood estimate of the impulse response of a frequency-selective channel in the presence of phase noise and I/Q imbalance is derived. The complexity of the joint es...
The spatial distribution of gray level intensities in an image can be naturally modeled using Markov Random Field (MRF) models. We develop and investigate the performance of face ...
