In this work, we investigate a novel computationally efficient speaker verification (SV) system involving boosted ensembles of simple threshold-based classifiers. The system is based on a novel set of features called “slice features”. Both the system and t ...
We study the problem of distributed state-space estimation, where a set of nodes are required to estimate the state of a nonlinear state-space system based on their observations. We extend our previous work on distributed Kalman filtering to the nonlinear ...
In this paper we propose an alternative solution to the Monocular Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) problem. This approach uses a Minimum-Energy Observer for Systems with Perspective Outputs and provides an optimal solution. Contrarily to the mo ...
This paper presents three novel Moving Horizon Estimation (MHE) methods for discrete-time partitioned linear systems, i.e. systems decomposed into coupled subsystems with non-overlapping states. The MHE approach is used due to its capability of exploiting ...
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 study the problem of distributed Kalman filtering and smoothing, where a set of nodes is required to estimate the state of a linear dynamic system from in a collaborative manner. Our focus is on diffusion strategies, where nodes communicate with their d ...
This paper presents three recursive Bayesian filtering approaches in phase shifting interferometry involving a piezoelectric device (PZT). The three approaches are extended Kalman filtering, unscented Kalman filtering, and particle filtering. These approac ...

In this thesis, we focus on Impulse Radio (IR) Ultra-WideBand (UWB) ranging and positioning techniques under indoor propagation environments. IR-UWB, a new carrierless communication scheme using impulses, is a candidate technology for future communication, ...
We propose a high-resolution ranging algorithm for impulse radio (IR) ultra-WideBand (UWB) communication systems in additive white Gaussian noise. We formulate the ranging problem as a maximum- likelihood (ML) estimation problem for the channel delays and ...
