This paper investigates the use of features based on posterior probabilities of subword units such as phonemes. These features are typically transformed when used as inputs for a hidden Markov model with mixture of Gaussians as emission distribution (HMM/G ...
In this paper we consider the problem of simultaneously localizing all members of a team of robots. Each robot is equipped with proprioceptive sensors and exteroceptive sensors. The latter provide relative observations between the robots. Proprioceptive an ...
The paper presents an alternative approach to automatic recognition of speech in which each targeted word is classified by a separate binary classifier against all other sounds. No time alignment is done. To build a recognizer for N words, N parallel binar ...
Local state or phone posterior probabilities are often investigated as local scores (e.g., hybrid HMM/ANN systems) or as transformed acoustic features (e.g., ``Tandem'') to improve speech recogni tion systems. In this paper, we present initial results towa ...

The role of discrete choice models in decision-making support has significantly grown during the past 20 years. This is particularly true in the context of marketing and transportation, where it is critical to understand and forecast choice behavior in a d ...
At Hot Creek in California, geothermally derived arsenite is rapidly oxidized to arsenate. This process is mediated by microorganisms colonizing the surfaces of submerged aquatic macrophytes in the creek. Here we describe a multifaceted approach to charact ...
In this paper, we show that the hinge loss can be interpreted as the neg-log-likelihood of a semi-parametric model of posterior probabilities. From this point of view, SVMs represent the parametric component of a semi-parametric model fitted by a maximum a ...

Chord progressions are the building blocks from which tonal music is constructed. Inferring chord progressions is thus an essential step towards modeling long term dependencies in music. In this paper, a distributed representation for chords is designed su ...
