Sequential Noise Compensation by Sequential Monte Carlo Method
We present a sequential Monte Carlo method applied to additive noise compensation for robust speech recognition in time-varying noise. The method generates a set of samples accord...

Generating velocity tuning by asymmetric recurrent connections
Asymmetric lateral connections are one possible mechanism that can account for the direction selectivity of cortical neurons. We present a mathematical analysis for a class of the...

A Neural Oscillator Model of Auditory Selective Attention
A model of auditory grouping is described in which auditory attention plays a key role. The model is based upon an oscillatory correlation framework, in which neural oscillators r...

Spike timing and the coding of naturalistic sounds in a central auditory area of songbirds
In nature, animals encounter high dimensional sensory stimuli that have complex statistical and dynamical structure. Attempts to study the neural coding of these natural signals f...

A Rotation and Translation Invariant Discrete Saliency Network
We describe a neural network which enhances and completes salient closed contours. Our work is different from all previous work in three important ways. First, like the input prov...

Learning Lateral Interactions for Feature Binding and Sensory Segmentation
We present a new approach to the supervised learning of lateral interactions for the competitive layer model (CLM) dynamic feature binding architecture. The method is based on con...

Fast and Robust Classification using Asymmetric AdaBoost and a Detector Cascade
This paper develops a new approach for extremely fast detection in domains where the distribution of positive and negative examples is highly skewed (e.g. face detection or databa...

K-Local Hyperplane and Convex Distance Nearest Neighbor Algorithms
Guided by an initial idea of building a complex (non linear) decision surface with maximal local margin in input space, we give a possible geometrical intuition as to why K-Neares...
