This paper describes a new toolkit - SCARF - for doing speech recognition with segmental conditional random fields. It is designed to allow for the integration of numerous, possib...
We present a novel language identification technique using our recently developed deep-structured conditional random fields (CRFs). The deep-structured CRF is a multi-layer CRF mo...
Coarticulation is one of the important factors that makes automatic sign language recognition a hard problem. Unlike in speech recognition, coarticulation effects in sign language...
We focus in this paper on the named entity recognition task in spoken data. The proposed approach investigates the use of various contexts of the words to improve recognition. Exp...
Conditional random fields (CRFs) have been quite successful in various machine learning tasks. However, as larger and larger data become acceptable for the current computational ma...
