We compare the use of two Markovian models, HMMs and IOHMMs, to discriminate between three mental tasks for brain computer interface systems using an asynchronous protocol. We show that IOHMMs outperform HMMs but that, probably due to the lack of any prior ...
Documents are usually represented in the bag-of-word space. However, this representation does not take into account the possible relations between words. We propose here a graphical model for representing documents: the Theme Topic Mixture Model (TTMM). Th ...
Boosting is a general method for training an ensemble of classifiers with a view to improving performance relative to that of a single classifier. While the original AdaBoost algorithm has been defined for classification tasks, the current work examines it ...
We present a training and testing method for Input-Output Hidden Markov Model that is particularly suited for classification of sequences in which class information accumulates over time. We discuss two such cases: the discrimination of mental tasks from s ...
Ensemble algorithms can improve the performance of a given learning algorithm through the combination of multiple base classifiers into an ensemble. In this paper, the idea of using an adaptive policy for training and combining the base classifiers is put ...
Combining multiple information sources such as subbands, streams (with different features) and multi modal data has shown to be a very promising trend, both in experiments and to some extend in real-life biometric authentication applications. Despite consi ...

The purpose of this paper is to unify several of the state-of-the-art score normalization techniques applied to text-independent speaker verification systems. We propose a new framework for this purpose. The two well-known Z- and T-normalization techniques ...
Multimodal biometric authentication (BA) has shown perennial successes both in research and applications. This paper casts a light on why BA systems can be improved by fusing opinions of different experts, principally due to diversity of biometric modaliti ...
