Pilot Matrix Design for Interim Channel Estimation in Two-Hop MIMO AF Relay Systems
In this paper, we are concerned with a two-hop multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) amplify-andforward (AF) relay system consisting of a source node (SN), a relay node (RN), and a dest...

A joint decoding algorithm for multiple-example-based addition of words to a pronunciation lexicon
We propose an algorithm that enables joint Viterbi decoding of multiple independent audio recordings of a word to derive its pronunciation. Experiments show that this method resul...
