Pitch-Synchronous Discrete Cosine Transform Features for Speaker Recognition and Other Applications
Extracting speaker-speci c information from the speech is of great interest since speaker recognition
technology nds application in a wide range of areas such as forensics and biometric
security systems. In this thesis, ...
Robust Risk Minimization under Label Noise
In the setting of supervised learning, one learns a classi fier from training data consisting of
patterns and the corresponding labels. When labels of the examples in training data have errors,
it is referred to as label ...
Multiview Registration Using Rank-Constrained Semide nite Programming
We consider the problem of reconstructing a 3D surface from its multiview scans. Typically, the
computational pipeline for this problem has two phases: (I) finding point-to-point correspondences
between overlapping scans, ...
Visual Speech Recognition
Visual speech recognition (VSR), or automatic lip-reading, is the task of extracting speech
information from visual input. The addition of visual speech has been shown to improve
the performance of traditional audio ...
Hypergraph Network Models: Learning, Prediction, and Representation in the Presence of Higher-Order Relations
The very thought about “relating” objects makes us assume the relation would be “pairwise”, and
not of a “higher-order” — involving possibly more than two of them at a time. Yet in reality,
higher-order relations do exist ...
Engineering van der Waals Heterojunctions for Electronic and Optoelectronic Device Applications
Efficient preparation and characterization of layered materials and their van der Waals
heterojunctions lay the foundation for various opportunities in both fundamental studies
and device applications. The vast library ...
Tuning of Multi-Band Power System Stabilizers in Multi-Machine Power Systems
Intermittent nature of renewables acts as a frequent trigger for small signal oscillations in power grid. These oscillatory modes correspond to either the rotor modes associated with the synchronous machines of conventional ...
Total Electric Field due to an Electron Avalanche and it's coupling to Transmission Line Conductors
Transmission of bulk electric power from the generating stations to the load centres can be carried out only through high voltages transmission lines. One of the main issues in the design and maintenance of extra and ...
Spectral Efficiency Improvement in Spatial Modulation Systems
A novel energy efficient Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) technique is called Spatial Mod-
ulation (SM). It uses only one radio frequency (RF) chain that reduces the hardware complexity
and cost of the system. The ...
Power Electronic Converters for Condition Monitoring and Voltage Equalization of Batteries
Power converters are used in battery-based storage systems in many applications. Apart from
the task of regulating the charging and discharging, the power electronic converters can also
help to monitor battery condition ...
