Although speech and language processing techniques achieved a relative maturity during the last decade, designing a spoken dialogue system is still a tailoring task because of the ...
We show that it is possible to extend hidden Markov models to have a countably infinite number of hidden states. By using the theory of Dirichlet processes we can implicitly integ...

This work deals with a new technique for the estimation of the parameters and number of components in a finite mixture model. The learning procedure is performed by means of a expe...
For a Markov Decision Process with finite state (size S) and action spaces (size A per state), we propose a new algorithm--Delayed Q-Learning. We prove it is PAC, achieving near o...

Belief propagation (BP) has become widely used for low-level vision problems and various inference techniques have been proposed for loopy graphs. These methods typically rely on a...
