On Improvements to CI-bas

چکیده
Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) computation is known to be one of the most computation-intensive components in speech decoding. In our previous work, context-independent model based GMM selection (CIGMMS) was found to be an effective way to reduce the cost of GMM computation without significant loss in recognition accuracy. In this work, we propose three methods to further improve the performance of CIGMMS. Each method brings an additional 5-10% relative speed improvement, with a cumulative improvement up to 37% on some tasks. Detailed analysis and experimental results on three corpora are presented.

Incidence of hemorrhagic stroke in black Caribbean, black African, and white populations: the South London stroke register, 1995-2004.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Data are lacking on the differences in hemorrhagic stroke incidence between black Caribbean (BC), black African (BA), and white ethnic groups. We estimated the incidence for primary intracerebral hemorrhage (PICH) and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and the associated risk factors for BCs, BAs, and whites. METHODS First-ever stroke patients were drawn from a prospective c...

متن کاملBreastfeeding Assessment Score: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have revealed conflicting results for the Breastfeeding Assessment Score (BAS) in predicting early breastfeeding cessation. Our objective was to externally validate the BAS and provide summary accuracy estimates for this clinical prediction model. METHODS We used the original data from a prospective cohort study. Additional studies were identified by searching elec...
متن کاملEffect of Bile Acid Sequestrants on the Risk of Cardiovascular Events: A Mendelian Randomization Analysis.
BACKGROUND Statins lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), but they may be ineffective or not tolerated. Bile acid sequestrants (BAS) reduce LDL-C, yet their clinical efficacy on CAD remains controversial. METHODS AND RESULTS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to assess the effect of cholestyr...
متن کاملEnvironmental arsenic epidemiology in the Mekong river basin of Cambodia.
We investigated relationship of arsenicosis symptoms with total blood arsenic (BAs) and serum albumin (SAlb) of residents in the Mekong River basin of Cambodia. We found that arsenicosis patients had significantly higher BAs and lower SAlb than asymptomatic villagers (Mann-Whitney U test, p<0.01). Arsenicosis symptoms were found to be 76.4% (1.764 times) more likely to develop among individuals...
