Sentence compression techniques often assemble output sentences using fragments of lexical sequences such as ngrams or units of syntactic structure such as edges from a dependency tree representation. We present a novel approach for discriminative sentence compression that unifies these notions and jointly produces sequential and syntactic representations for output text, leveraging a compact i...

In recent years, adaptation techniques have been given a special focus in speaker recognition tasks. Addressing the separation of speaker and session variation effects, Joint Factor Analysis (JFA) has been consolidated as a powerful adaptation framework and has become ubiquitous in the last NIST Speaker Recognition Evaluations (SRE). However, its global parameter sharing strategy is not necessa...

Gaussian graphical models capture dependence relationships between random variables through the pattern of nonzero elements in the corresponding inverse covariance matrices. To date, there has been a large body of literature on both computational methods and analytical results on the estimation of a single graphical model. However, in many application domains, one has to estimate several relate...

This paper defines an econometric model with a coordination game to structurally analyze joint decision-making. The model solves a simultaneity bias occurring when individuals care about others’ decisions when making theirs. The model is also useful for evaluating the implications of marketing to groups of customers. We illustrate how the model measures the importance of demand complementaritie...

Background: The hip joint is the largest joint after the knee, which gives stability to the whole human structure. The hip joint consists of a femoral head which articulates with the acetabulum. Due to age and wear between the joints, these joints need to be replaced with implants which can function just as a natural joint. Since the early 19th century, the hip joint arthroplasty has evolved, a...
