In heterogeneous wireless network environment, various radio access networks (RANs) are available for mobile terminals which have multiple wireless network interfaces to connect to each different RAN. However, it is very difficult to improve the throughput by aggregating different RANs, which have different quality of service (QoS) in the throughput, the delay, the packet loss, and so on. In this...
We present a system that detects human falls in the home environment, distinguishing them from competing noise, by using only the audio signal from a single far-field microphone. The proposed system models each fall or noise segment by means of a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) supervector, whose Euclidean distance measures the pairwise difference between audio segments. A support vector machine built...
This paper presents a novel Gaussianized vector representation for scene images by an unsupervised approach. First, each image is encoded as an ensemble of orderless bag of features, and then a global Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) learned from all images is used to randomly distribute each feature into one Gaussian component by a multinomial trial. The parameters of the multinomial distribution are...
Speaker verification is a technology of verifying the claimed identity of a speaker based on the speech signal from the speaker (voice print). To learn the score of similarity between each pair of target and trial utterances, we investigated two different discriminative learning frameworks: Fisher mapping followed by SVM learning and utterance transform followed by iterative cohort modeling (ICM)...
This paper studies the speech of three talkers with spastic dysarthria caused by cerebral palsy. All three subjects share the symptom of low intelligibility, but causes differ. First, all subjects tend to reduce or delete word-initial consonants; one subject deletes all consonants. Second, one subject exhibits a painstaking stutter. Two algorithms were used to develop automatic isolated digit recognition...
