Large margin learning of Continuous Density HMMs with a partially labeled dataset has been extensively studied in the speech and handwriting recognition fields. Yet due to the non...
In this paper, we propose a novel boosted mixture learning (BML) framework for Gaussian mixture HMMs in speech recognition. BML is an incremental method to learn mixture models fo...
Bayesian networks are directed acyclic graphs that represent dependencies between variables in a probabilistic model. Many time series models, including the hidden Markov models (H...
This paper presents a novel extension of Hidden Markov Models (HMMs): type-2 fuzzy HMMs (type-2 FHMMs). The advantage of this extension is that it can handle both randomness and f...
In this paper, we propose a robust compensation strategy to deal effectively with extraneous acoustic variations for spontaneous speech recognition. This strategy extends speaker a...
