We study the problem of quantization of discrete probability distributions, arising in universal coding, as well as other applications. We show, that in many situations this probl...
The relation between hard c-means (HCM), fuzzy c-means (FCM), fuzzy learning vector quantization (FLVQ), soft competition scheme (SCS) of Yair et al. (1992) and probabilistic Gaus...
This paper presents a new audio coder that includes two techniques to improve the sound quality of the audio coding system. First, a forward masking model is proposed. This model e...
We present Quantized Contour Modeling (QCM), a Bayesian approach to the classification of acoustic contours. We evaluate the performance of this technique in the classification of...
Last year, we showed that the computation of a GMM-UBMbased speaker verification (SV) system may be sped up by 30 times by using a high-density discrete model (HDDM) on the NIST 2...
