Content-based image retrieval methods based on the Euclidean metric expect the feature space to be isotropic. They suer from unequal dierential relevance of features in comput...
Abstract--An audio fingerprint is a compact yet very robust representation of the perceptually relevant parts of an audio signal. It can be used for content-based audio identificat...
An efficient speech synthesis method that uses subspace constraint in prosody is proposed. Conventional unit selection methods concatenate speech segments stored in database, tha...
Maximum entropy analysis of binary variables provides an elegant way for studying the role of pairwise correlations in neural populations. Unfortunately, these approaches suffer f...
The two-band discrete wavelet transform (DWT) provides an octave-band analysis in the frequency domain, but this might not be "optimal" for a given signal. The discrete w...
