In this paper we propose a novel general framework for unsupervised model adaptation. Our method is based on entropy which has been used previously as a regularizer in semi-superv...

We suggest improvements to a previously proposed framework for integrating Conditional Random Fields and Hidden Markov Models, dubbed a Crandem system (2009). The previous authors...

We describe a method of incorporating taskspecific cost functions into standard conditional log-likelihood (CLL) training of linear structured prediction models. Recently introduc...
A novel framework for background music identification is proposed in this paper. Given a piece of audio signals that mixes background music with speech/noise, we identify the musi...
