facial expressions are the most powerful and direct means of presenting human emotions and feelings and offer a window into a persons’ state of mind. in recent years, the study of facial expression and recognition has gained prominence; as industry and services are keen on expanding on the potential advantages of facial recognition technology. as machine vision and artificial intelligence advan...

this paper introduces a novel approach to improve performance of speech recognition systems using a combination of features obtained from speech reconstructed phase space (rps) and frequency domain analysis. by choosing an appropriate value for the dimension, reconstructed phase space is assured to be topologically equivalent to the dynamics of the speech production system, and could therefore ...

Feature extraction and feature selection are two important tasks in pattern recognition. Classiication algorithms like k-nearest neighbors, which are based on the assumption that patterns in the same class are close to each other and those in diierent classes are far apart (locality property), rely heavily on the quality of the features extracted from the input data. In this work, an objective ...
