Open-set speaker identification in broadcast news
In this paper, we examine the problem of text-independent open-set speaker identification (OS-SI) in broadcast news. Particularly, the impact of the population of registered speak...

Generative versus discriminative training of RBMs for classification of fMRI images
Neuroimaging datasets often have a very large number of voxels and a very small number of training cases, which means that overfitting of models for this data can become a very se...

Partial Discriminative Training of Neural Networks for Classification of Overlapping Classes
In applications such as character recognition, some classes are heavily overlapped but are not necessarily to be separated. For classification of such overlapping classes, either d...

Generalized Baum-Welch algorithm for discriminative training on large vocabulary continuous speech recognition system
We propose a new optimization algorithm called Generalized Baum Welch (GBW) algorithm for discriminative training on hidden Markov model (HMM). GBW is based on Lagrange relaxation...

Matrix updates for perceptron training of continuous density hidden Markov models
In this paper, we investigate a simple, mistakedriven learning algorithm for discriminative training of continuous density hidden Markov models (CD-HMMs). Most CD-HMMs for automat...
