Fuzzy pattern tree induction was recently introduced as a novel machine learning method for classification. Roughly speaking, a pattern tree is a hierarchical, tree-like structur...
We propose a novel approach to modeling prosodic features. Inspired by Joint Factor Analysis model (JFA), our model is based on the same idea of introducing subspace of model para...

We propose a kernelized maximal-figure-of-merit (MFoM) learning approach to efficiently training a nonlinear model using subspace distance minimization. In particular, a fixed,...
Gaussian mixture models (GMMs) are commonly used to model the spectral distribution of speech signals for text-independent speaker verification. Mean vectors of the GMM, used in c...
