Many multimedia applications rely on the computation of logarithms, for example, when estimating log-likelihoods for Gaussian Mixture Models. Knowing of the demand to compute loga...
In this paper, we investigate a simple, mistakedriven learning algorithm for discriminative training of continuous density hidden Markov models (CD-HMMs). Most CD-HMMs for automat...
Image parsing remains difficult due to the need to combine
local and contextual information when labeling a
