We apply robust Bayesian decision theory to improve both generative and discriminative learners under bias in class proportions in labeled training data, when the true class propo...
We address the problem of learning the mapping between words and their possible pronunciations in terms of sub-word units. Most previous approaches have involved generative modeli...
This paper presents an online feature selection and classification algorithm. The algorithm is implemented for impact acoustics signals to sort hazelnut kernels. The classifier, w...
