Introduction to the Special Section on Deep Learning for Speech and Language Processing

TL;DR: Current speech recognition systems, for example, typically use Gaussian mixture models (GMMs), to estimate the observation (or emission) probabilities of hidden Markov models (HMMs), and GMMs are generative models that have only one layer of latent variables.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recognizing handwritten digits using hierarchical products of experts

TL;DR: On the MNIST database, the system is comparable with current state-of-the-art discriminative methods, demonstrating that the product of experts learning procedure can produce effective generative models of high-dimensional data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Split and Merge EM Algorithm for Improving Gaussian Mixture Density Estimates

TL;DR: This work presents a new EM algorithm which performs split and merge operations on the Gaussians to escape from these configurations of Gaussian mixture models, which often gets caught in local maxima of the likelihood.

The delve manual

TL;DR: This manual describes the preliminary release of the DELVE environment, and recommends that you exercise caution when using this version of DELVE for real work, as it is possible that bugs remain in the software.
