We survey the use of weighted finite-state transducers (WFSTs) in speech recognition. We show that WFSTs provide a common and natural representation for HMM models, context-depend...
: Information Systems (IS) and technology are used extensively throughout the NHS, and the 1998 national information strategy, "Information for Health", sets out how the ...
Optical flow provides a constraint on the motion of a deformable model. We derive and solve a dynamic system incorporating flow as a hard constraint, producing a model-based least...
We develop a variant of the Nelder-Mead (NM) simplex search procedure for stochastic simulation optimization that is designed to avoid many of the weaknesses encumbering such dire...
Within data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a sub-group of papers in which many researchers have sought to improve the differential capabilities of DEA and to fully rank both effici...
