Abstract. The recently introduced family of natural evolution strategies (NES), a novel stochastic descent method employing the natural gradient, is providing a more principled alt...
System combination has emerged as a powerful method for machine translation (MT). This paper pursues a joint optimization strategy for combining outputs from multiple MT systems, ...
We investigate the linear precoding and power allocation policies that maximize the mutual information for general multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) Gaussian channels with arb...
Background: Cluster analysis is an integral part of high dimensional data analysis. In the context of large scale gene expression data, a filtered set of genes are grouped togethe...
We propose new Continuous Hidden Markov Model (CHMM) structure that integrates feature weighting component. We assume that each feature vector could include different subsets of f...
