Training Support Vector Machine can become very challenging in large scale problems. Training several lower complexity SVMs on local subsets of the training set can significantly reduce the training complexity and also improve the classification performanc ...
This paper presents the algorithms and results of our par- ticipation to the image annotation task of ImageCLEFmed 2007. We proposed a multi-cue approach where images are represented both by global and local descriptors. These cues are combined following t ...
Biometric identity verification systems frequently face the challenges of non-controlled conditions of data acquisition. Under such conditions biometric signals may suffer from quality degradation due to extraneous, identity-independent factors. It has bee ...
The use of local phoneme posterior probabilities has been increasingly explored for improving speech recognition systems. Hybrid hidden Markov model / artificial neural network (HMM/ANN) and Tandem are the most successful examples of such systems. In this ...

We propose a vector/matrix extension of our denoising algorithm initially developed for grayscale images, in order to efficiently process multichannel (e.g., color) images. This work follows our recently published SURE-LET approach where the denoising algo ...

This paper investigates a multilayer perceptron (MLP) based acoustic feature mapping to extract robust features for automatic speech recognition (ASR) of overlapping speech. The MLP is trained to learn the mapping from log mel filter bank energies (MFBEs) ...
We propose an alternative means of training a multilayer perceptron for the task of speech activity detection based on a criterion to minimise the error in the estimation of mean and variance statistics for speech cepstrum based features using the Kullback ...
In a recent work, a frequency method based on linear programming is proposed to design fixed-order linearly parameterized controllers for stable linear multi- model SISO systems. The method is based on the shaping of the open-loop transfer functions in the ...
Using phone posterior probabilities has been increasingly explored for improving automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. In this paper, we propose two approaches for hierarchically enhancing these phone posteriors, by integrating long acoustic context, ...
