When human listeners utter Listener Responses (e.g. back-channels or acknowledgments) such as ‘yeah’ and ‘mmhmm’, interlocutors commonly continue to speak or resume their ...
HMM-based acoustic models built from bootstrap are generally very large, especially when full covariance matrices are used for Gaussians. Therefore, clustering is needed to compac...
A nonparametric version of the basis pursuit method is developed for field estimation. The underlying model entails known bases, weighted by generic functions to be estimated fro...
