State-of-the-art Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems typically use phoneme as the subword units. In this paper, we investigate a system where the word models are defined in-terms of two different subword units, i.e., phonemes and graphemes. We train ...
Multi-band, multi-stream and multi-modal approaches have proven to be very successful both in experiments and in real-life applications, among which speech recognition and biometric authentication are of particular interest here. However, there is a lack o ...
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 ...
In this paper, several approaches that can be used to improve biometric authentication applications are proposed. The idea is inspired by the ensemble approach, i.e., the use of several classifiers to solve a problem. Compared to using only one classifier, ...
We present an overview of recent research at IDIAP on speech & face based biometric authentication. This report covers user-customised passwords, adaptation techniques, confidence measures (for use in fusion of audio & visual scores), face verification in ...
Standard ASR systems typically use phoneme as the subword units. Preliminary studies have shown that the performance of the ASR system could be improved by using grapheme as additional subword units. In this paper, we investigate such a system where the wo ...
This paper presents an application of the general sample-to-object approach to the problem of invariant image classification. The approach results in defining new SVM kernels based on tangent vectors that take into account prior information on known invari ...
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 ...
Most conventional features used in speaker authentication are based on estimation of spectral envelopes in one way or another, in the form of cepstrums, e.g., Mel-scale Filterbank Cepstrum Coefficients (MFCCs), Linear-scale Filterbank Cepstrum Coefficients ...
After the recent development of the theory of nonlinear dynamical systems and deterministic chaos and the introduction of one, in theory, simple method for computing the phase space, many researchers started to analyze electroencephalographic (EEG) signals ...
