Current speech recognition systems are often based on HMMs with state-clustered Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) to represent the context dependent output distributions. Though high...
—Soft biometric traits embedded in a face (e.g., gender and facial marks) are ancillary information and are not fully distinctive by themselves in face-recognition tasks. However...
Fitting of the chin is an essential part of facial model fitting systems. Many previous approaches to chin fitting have used active contour models or snakes. However, achieving su...
One major source of performance decline in speaker recognition system is channel mismatch between training and testing. This paper focuses on improving channel robustness of speake...
This paper analyzes the contribution of semantic roles to TimeML event recognition and classification. For that purpose, an approach using conditional random fields with a variety...
