Spectral Learning of Latent-Variable PCFGs
We introduce a spectral learning algorithm for latent-variable PCFGs (Petrov et al., 2006). Under a separability (singular value) condition, we prove that the method provides cons...

An audio watermarking scheme using singular value decomposition and dither-modulation quantization
Quantization index modulation is one of the best methods for performing blind watermarking, due to its simplicity and good rate-distortion-robustness tradeoffs. In this paper, a ne...

A contribution to the conditioning of the total least squares problem
We derive closed formulas for the condition number of a linear function of the total least squares solution. Given an over determined linear systems Ax = b, we show that this condi...

Video watermarking using wavelet transform and tensor algebra
We present a robust, hybrid non-blind MPEG video watermarking technique based on a high-order tensor singular value decomposition and the discrete wavelet transform (DWT). The core...

On the computation of structured singular values and pseudospectra
Structured singular values and pseudospectra play an important role in assessing the properties of a linear system under structured perturbations. This paper discusses computation...

A Spectral Algorithm for Learning Hidden Markov Models
Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are one of the most fundamental and widely used statistical tools for modeling discrete time series. In general, learning HMMs from data is computation...

Semidefinite programming methods for system realization and identification
We describe semidefinite programming methods for system realization and identification. For each of these two applications, a variant of a simple subspace algorithm is presented, i...
