Distortion-Invariant Recognition via Jittered Queries

چکیده

This paper presents a new approach for achieving distortion-invariant recognition and classification. A test example to be classified is viewed as a query intended to find similar examples in the training set (or class models derived from the training set). The key idea is that instead of querying with a single pattern, we construct a more robust query, based on the fami l y of patterns formed by distorting the test example. Although query execution is slower than if the invariances were successfully pre-compiled during training, there are significant advantages in several contexts: (i) providing invariances in memory-based learning, (ii) in model selection, where reducing training time at the expense of test time is a desirable trade-off, and (iii) in enabling robust, ad hoc searches based on a single example. Preliminary tests for memory-based learning on the NIST handwritten digit database with a limited set of shearing and translation distortions produced an error rate of 1.35%.

Word recognition for temporally and spectrally distorted materials: the effects of age and hearing loss.

OBJECTIVES The purpose of Experiment 1 was to measure word recognition in younger adults with normal hearing when speech or babble was temporally or spectrally distorted. In Experiment 2, older listeners with near-normal hearing and with hearing loss (for pure tones) were tested to evaluate their susceptibility to changes in speech level and distortion types. The results across groups and liste...

Temporal jitter disrupts speech intelligibility: a simulation of auditory aging.

We disrupted periodicity cues by temporally jittering the speech signal to explore how such distortion might affect word identification. Jittering distorts the fine structure of the speech signal with negligible alteration of either its long-term spectral or amplitude envelope characteristics. In Experiment 1, word identification in noise was significantly reduced in young, normal-hearing adult...

Evaluation of Pooling Operations in Convolutional Architectures for Object Recognition

A common practice to gain invariant features in object recognition models is to aggregate multiple low-level features over a small neighborhood. However, the differences between those models makes a comparison of the properties of different aggregation functions hard. Our aim is to gain insight into different functions by directly comparing them on a fixed architecture for several common object...
