This paper tests speech recognition using prosody dependent allophone models. The log likehoods of various prosodically labeled phonemes are calculated using Baum-Welsh re-estimation. These log likehoods are then compared to log likehoods of non-prosodically labeled phonemes. Based on the comparison of these log likehoods, it can be concluded that modeling all prosodic information directly in t...

We study in this paper the maximal version of the coarse BaumConnes assembly map for families of expanding graphs arising from residually finite groups. Unlike for the usual Roe algebra, we show that this assembly map is closely related to the (maximal) Baum-Connes assembly map for the group and is an isomorphism for a class of expanders. We also introduce a quantitative Baum-Connes assembly ma...

The report below describes the applications of Banach KK-theory to a conjecture of P. Baum and A. Connes about the K-theory of group C∗-algebras, and a new proof of the classification by Harish-Chandra, the construction by Parthasarathy and the exhaustion by Atiyah and Schmid of the discrete series representations of connected semi-simple Lie groups. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 19K...

For an orbifold X and α ∈ H(X,Z), we introduce the twisted cohomologyH c (X, α) and prove that the Connes-Chern character establishes an isomorphism between the twisted K-groups K α (X)⊗C and twisted cohomologyH c (X, α). This theorem, on the one hand, generalizes a classical result of Baum-Connes, Brylinski-Nistor, and others, that if X is an orbifold then the Chern character establishes an is...

Based on the Cayley, Grothendieck, Knudsen Mumford theory of determinants we extend the CM polarization to the Hilbert scheme. The Baum Fulton Macpherson GRR Theorem enables us to show that on any flat, proper, local complete intersection family the restriction of the extension and the original CM sheaf are isomorphic (under a mild hypothesis on the base). As a consequence the CM stability impl...

Given two strings (a text t of length n and a pattern p) and a natural number w, window subsequence problems consist in deciding whether p occurs as a subsequence of t and/or finding the number of size (at most) w windows of text t which contain pattern p as a subsequence, i.e. the letters of pattern p occur in the text window, in the same order as in p, but not necessarily consecutively (they ...

This is a survey of the relationship between C *-algebraic deformation quan-tization and the tangent groupoid in noncommutative geometry, emphasizing the role of index theory. We first explain how C *-algebraic versions of deformation quantization are related to the bivariant E-theory of Connes and Higson. With this background, we review how Weyl–Moyal quantization may be described using the ta...
