We present algorithms for improved Viterbi decoding for the case of hidden semi-Markov models. By carefully constructing directed acyclic graphs, we pose the decoding problem as t...
A Generalized Nonlinear Discriminant Analysis (GNDA) method is proposed, which implements Fisher discriminant analysis in a nonlinear mapping space. Linear discriminant analysis i...
To learn a metric for query?based operations, we combine the concept underlying manifold learning algorithms and the minimum volume ellipsoid metric in a unified algorithm to find...
In this paper, we present an approach to matching heart sounds based on modeling the morphological variations of audio envelopes through a constrained nonrigid translation transfo...
In content based image retrieval, the success of any distance-based indexing scheme depends critically on the quality of the chosen distance metric. We propose in this paper a ker...
