We investigate a biologically motivated approach to fast visual classification, directly inspired by the recent work [13]. Specifically, trading-off biological accuracy for comput...
In our previous work, a precision constrained Gaussian model (PCGM) was proposed for character modeling to design compact recognizers of handwritten Chinese characters. A maximum ...
Japanese listeners detected Japanese words embedded at the end of nonsense sequences (e.g., kaba 'hippopotamus' in gyachikaba). When the final portion of the preceding c...
This paper describes a novel multi-stage recognition procedure for deducing the spelling and pronunciation of an open set of names. The overall goal is the automatic acquisition o...
Situated, spontaneous speech may be ambiguous along acoustic, lexical, grammatical and semantic dimensions. To understand such a seemingly difficult signal, we propose to model th...
