A new lossless data compression technique called compression via substring enumeration (CSE) has recently been introduced. It has been observed that CSE achieves lower performance ...
We present the results of a systematic study of the contextual gain hypothesis for image classification. This hypothesis relates the traditional strategy of direct visual classi...
This paper proposes a method to optimize Viterbi beam search based on search error risk minimization in large vocabulary continuous speech recognition (LVCSR). Most speech recogni...
We formalize the associative bandit problem framework introduced by Kaelbling as a learning-theory problem. The learning environment is modeled as a k-armed bandit where arm payof...
