Sparse Inverse Covariance Selection via Alternating Linearization Methods
Gaussian graphical models are of great interest in statistical learning. Because the conditional independencies between different nodes correspond to zero entries in the inverse c...

A similarity measure between unordered vector sets with application to image categorization
We present a novel approach to compute the similarity between two unordered variable-sized vector sets. To solve this problem, several authors have proposed to model each vector s...

MAP speaker adaptation of state duration distributions for speech recognition
This paper presents a framework for maximum a posteriori (MAP) speaker adaptation of state duration distributions in hidden Markov models (HMM). Four key issues of MAP estimation, ...
