In the present work we address the problem of phone duration modeling for the needs of emotional speech synthesis. Specifically, relying on ten well known machine learning techniqu...
L1 (also referred to as the 1-norm or Lasso) penalty based formulations have been shown to be effective in problem domains when noisy features are present. However, the L1 penalty...
Feature subset selection presents a common challenge for the applications where data with tens or hundreds of features are available. Existing feature selection algorithms are mai...
Band ratios have many useful applications in hyperspectral image analysis. While optimal ratios have been chosen empirically in previous research, we propose a principled algorith...
