Information Theoretic Expectation Maximization Based Gaussian Mixture Modeling for Speaker Verification
The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is widely used in the Gaussian mixture model (GMM) as the state-of-art statistical modeling technique. Like the classical EM method, th...

Unsupervised Model Adaptation using Information-Theoretic Criterion
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...

Investigations into the Crandem Approach to Word Recognition
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...

Softmax-Margin CRFs: Training Log-Linear Models with Cost Functions
We describe a method of incorporating taskspecific cost functions into standard conditional log-likelihood (CLL) training of linear structured prediction models. Recently introduc...

Background music identification through content filtering and min-hash matching
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...
