Discriminative Gaussian Mixture Models: A Comparison with Kernel Classifiers
We show that a classifier based on Gaussian mixture models (GMM) can be trained discriminatively to improve accuracy. We describe a training procedure based on the extended Baum-W...

A Hybrid HMM-Based Speech Recognizer Using Kernel-Based Discriminants as Acoustic Models
In this paper we propose a novel order-recursive training algorithm for kernel-based discriminants which is computationally efficient. We integrate this method in a hybrid HMM-bas...

Restricted Bayes Optimal Classifiers
We introduce the notion of restricted Bayes optimal classifiers. These classifiers attempt to combine the flexibility of the generative approach to classification with the high ac...

Comparison of MLP and GMM Classifiers for Face Verification on XM2VTS
We compare two classifier approaches, namely classifiers based on Multi Layer Perceptrons (MLPs) and Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs), for use in a face verification system. The comp...

Unsupervised Selection and Discriminative Estimation of Orthogonal Gaussian Mixture Models for Handwritten Digit Recognition
The problem of determining the appropriate number of components is important in finite mixture modeling for pattern classification. This paper considers the application of an unsu...
