An HMM-based speaker clustering framework is presented, where the number of speakers and segmentation boundaries are unknown \emph{a priori}. Ideally, the system aims to create one pure cluster for each speaker. The HMM is ergodic in nature with a minimum ...
In this paper we present an empirical study of a workload gathered by crawling the eDonkey network - a dominant peer-to-peer file sharing system - for over 50 days. We first confirm the presence of some known features, in particular the prevalence of free- ...
We try to analyze a generic model for 2-tier distributed systems, exploring the possibility of optimal cluster sizes from an information management perspective, such that the overall cost for updating and searching information may be minimized by adopting ...
In this paper, we present a novel speaker segmentation and clustering algorithm. The algorithm automatically performs both speaker segmentation and clustering without any prior knowledge of the identities or the number of speakers. Advantages of this algor ...
Accessing, organizing, and manipulating home videos present technical challenges due to their unrestricted content and lack of storyline. In this paper, we present a methodology to discover cluster structure in home videos, which uses video shots as the un ...

Distant microphones permit to process spontaneous multi-party speech with very little constraints on speakers, as opposed to close-talking microphones. Minimizing the constraints on speakers permits a large diversity of applications, including meeting summ ...
Even with reasonable overprovisioning, today's Internet application clusters are unable to handle major traffic spikes and flash crowds. As an alternative to fixed-size, dedicated clusters, we propose a dynamically-shared application cluster model based on ...

The purpose of this report is to present the study of a linguistic network based on the relation of synonymy. The network has been extracted from a dictionary of synonyms in French. Due to errors and ambiguities in the data, the synonyms are not always gro ...
