We applied a multiple kernel learning (MKL) method based on information-theoretic optimization to speaker recognition. Most of the kernel methods applied to speaker recognition sy...

We propose novel approaches for optimizing the detection performance in spoken language recognition. Two objective functions are designed to directly relate model parameters to tw...
— Motion and path-planning algorithms often use complex cost functions for both global navigation and local smoothing of trajectories. Obtaining good results typically requires c...

Abstract. In this paper we investigate the effectiveness of applying fuzzy controllers to create strong computer player programs in the domain of backgammon. Fuzzeval, our proposed...

Exploiting unannotated natural language data is hard largely because unsupervised parameter estimation is hard. We describe deterministic annealing (Rose et al., 1990) as an appea...
