We derive a new upper bound on the diameter of a polyhedron , where . The bound is polynomial in and the largest absolute value of a sub-determinant of , denoted by . More precisely, we show that the diameter of is bounded by . If is bounded, then we show ...
We propose a vector space approach for inverse rendering of a Lambertian convex object with distant light sources. In this problem, the texture of the object and arbitrary lightings are both to be recovered from multiple images of the object and its 3D mod ...
Bilinear models of count data with Poisson distribution are popular in applications such as matrix factorization for recommendation systems, modeling of receptive fields of sensory neurons, and modeling of neural-spike trains. Bayesian inference in such mo ...
In this paper we present a novel approach for estimating feature-space maximum likelihood linear regression (fMLLR) transforms for full-covariance Gaussian models by directly maximizing the likelihood function by repeated line search in the direction of th ...
We present a methodology for calibrating the thermoelastic properties of constituent tows in a woven C/SiC composite using a combination of experimental measurements and finite element simulations of strain distributions that arise upon heating. Because of ...
We show that the binary logarithm of the nonnegative rank of a nonnegative matrix is, up to small constants, equal to the minimum complexity of a randomized communication protocol computing the matrix in expectation. We use this connection to prove new con ...
The network traffic matrix is widely used in network operation and management. It is of crucial importance to analyze the composition and the structure of the network traffic matrix, for which some mathematical approaches such as Principal Component Analys ...
Using a transformation based at least in part on a non-simple orthogonal or unitary matrix, data may be transmitted over a data bus in a manner that is resilient to one or more types of signal noise, that does not require a common reference at the transmis ...
We present a functional framework for the design of tight steerable wavelet frames in any number of dimensions. The 2-D version of the method can be viewed as a generalization of Simoncelli's steerable pyramid that gives access to a larger palette of steer ...

Many works on speech processing have dealt with auto-regressive (AR) models for spectral envelope and formant frequency estimation, mostly focusing on the estimation of the AR parameters. However, it is also interesting to be able to directly estimate the ...
