A-Functions: A generalization of Extended Baum-Welch transformations to convex optimization
We introduce the Line Search A-Function (LSAF) technique that generalizes the Extended-Baum Welch technique in order to provide an effective optimization technique for a broader s...

Generalized Baum-Welch algorithm for discriminative training on large vocabulary continuous speech recognition system
We propose a new optimization algorithm called Generalized Baum Welch (GBW) algorithm for discriminative training on hidden Markov model (HMM). GBW is based on Lagrange relaxation...

Defining the controlling parameter in constrained discriminative linear transform for supervised speaker adaptation
Constrained discriminative linear transform (CDLT) optimized with Extended Baum-Welch (EBW) has been presented in the literature as a discriminative speaker adaptation method that...

Optimal Placement of Convex Polygons to Maximize Point Containment
Given a convex polygon P with m vertices and a set S of n points in the plane, we consider the problem of nding a placement of P that contains the maximum number of points in S. W...

Exploring the Relationship Between Max-Cut and Stable Set Relaxations
The max-cut and stable set problems are two fundamental NP-hard problems in combinatorial optimization. It has been known for a long time that any instance of the stable set probl...
