Although a number of approaches have been taken to quality prediction for software, none have achieved widespread applicability. This paper describes a single model to combine the diverse forms of, often causal, evidence available in software development in a more natural and efficient way than done previously. We use Bayesian Networks as the appropriate formalism for representing defect introd...

a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t South Pacific subtropical density compensated temperature and salinity (spiciness) anomalies are known to be associated with decadal equatorial variability, however, the mechanisms by which such disturbances are generated, advect and the degree to which they modulate the equatorial thermocline remains controversial. During the late 1970's a climate regime t...

In this paper, we present the Philips large vocabulary continuous Mandarin speech recognition system developed for the 2000 Taiwan Speech Input Technology Assessment. We systematically integrated key Mandarin components with up-todate Western-language techniques to build up a state-of-the-art Mandarin speech recognition system. These technologies include robust pitch extraction/tone modeling, c...

This paper describes the Philips Large Vocabulary Continuous Mandarin speech recognition system for the 1999 Taiwan benchmark. The basic system architecture is based on the Philips LVCSR technology developed for Western languages. However, several modifications are made in order to better suitted processing Chinese spoken languages. In the paper, we present some experimental results on the two ...

High-frequency atmospheric variability depends on the phase of El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Recently, there is increasing evidence that statedependent high-frequency atmospheric variability significantly modulates ENSO characteristics. Hence, in this study, we examine the model simulations of high-frequency atmospheric variability and, further, its dependency on the El Nino phase, using...

We have extended the Philips large vocabulary continuous speech recognition system towards Chinese On the way from our existing Western language technology to Mandarin the rst step was to build a suitable phonetic model This paper describes the development of our phonetic model excluding tones for Mandarin Chinese We will present a systematic comparison of three forms of sub syllabic units for ...
