The maximization of a full-rank quadratic form over a finite alphabet is NP-hard in both a worst-case sense and an average sense. Interestingly, if the rank of the form is not a ...
Equalization techniques for room impulse responses (RIRs) are important in acoustic signal processing applications such as speech dereverberation. In practice, only approximate es...

This paper analyzes the performance of the simple thresholding algorithm for sparse signal representations. In particular, in order to be more realistic we introduce a new probabi...
We investigate several measures of voice quality (VQ) to improve tone recognition in Mandarin Chinese. We find that band energy measures such as Spectral Balance (Sluijter and va...
In this paper we describe the application of a feature-space transform based on constrained maximum likelihood linear regression for unsupervised compensation of channel and speak...
